Ohio governor mercilessly roasts Jim Harbaugh's khakis

When Michigan hired head coach Jim Harbaugh and his famous khaki-clad look, it immediately added some heat to the school's rivalry with Ohio State, and now things have gotten personal.

The State of Ohio released a resolution signed by Gov. John Kasich urging residents to follow several guidelines during Michigan game week, including an instruction to "avoid wearing pleated khakis on this day and all days," and several paragraphs specifically insulting Harbaugh's style:

WHEREAS, over the years the rivalry has been made richer by the unique styles of the great Ohio-born coaches who have roamed the sidelines in The Game, including Jim Tressel's trademark sweater vest, Bo Schembechler's timeless hat, and Woody Hayes's signature glasses; and

WHEREAS, another Ohio-born coach makes his debut this year, bringing his own pleated sense of style to the sidelines, reportedly purchased at Wal-Mart for $8 a pair; and

WHEREAS, his style recalls guys standing around, being very casual and witty on a front porch in a 1991 Dockers commercial, which offended Jerry Seinfeld in the episode The Phone Message; and

WHEREAS, while the dull, earthly garment may be workplace appropriate for Jake from State Farm, coaches sporting them in a "shirts vs. skins" pickup game should stick to the "shirts" team.

There's nothing in the resolution about how many times the Buckeyes should give the ball to Ezekiel Elliott, but there's still time before Saturday's noon kickoff for an amendment.
