On Tuesday, Jim Harbaugh had some fiery quotes about the NCAA's recent satellite camp ban. You can read them all here, but one quote stood out above all others, when Harbaugh essentially called Hugh Freeze "lazy" after the Ole Miss coach said he was in favor of the satellite camp ban, because he wanted to spend more time with his family.

In case you missed it, here was Harbaugh's exact quote:

Mercy! Say what you want about Jim Harbaugh, but the man is not afraid to speak his mind.

And to his credit, apparently Freeze isn't afraid to speak his mind either.

After hearing about Harbaugh's quotes, Freeze went on ESPN Radio Wednesday morning.

And when the topic of Harbaugh's quotes came up, Freeze had a spectacular response as well.

 Then, like Harbaugh did on Tuesday, Freeze came directly at Harbaugh:

Man, forget Yankees-Red Sox, Lakers-Celtics or Alabama-Auburn, I'm starting to think "Harbaugh vs. the SEC" is the best rivalry going in sports right now. Remember, Freeze is just the latest SEC coach Harbaugh has gone after this winter, after he shook things up with both Georgia's Kirby Smart and Tennessee's Butch Jones just a few months back.

At the same time, credit to Freeze: It was a classy way to respond, while also firmly getting his point across.

If there's ever an excuse to cut back on time in the office, family is always a good one.
