College coaches across the country are trying to find an edge when it comes to recruiting high school players.

One advantage coaches have is the ability to show what they are all about, all season long via social media.

Michigan's new man Jim Harbaugh has a Twitter account that has already reached over 193,000 followers.

According to ESPN's Darren Rovell, he is the second most followed college football coach on Twitter only behind Ohio State's Urban Meyer.

Some of Harbaugh's better tweets are listed below.

Michigan State's Mark Dantonio comes in at 24th on the list with just over 43,000 followers.

If Twitter really is the future of recruiting, Harbaugh is above the curve.
