Burress takes shot at Harbaugh, but not with illegal pistol

Michigan coach Jim Harbaugh just can’t escape the criticism.

Now it’s former Michigan State receiver and illegal pistol carrier / tax evader Plaxico Burress getting in on the act.

Responding to Harbaugh taking his team to Bradenton, Fla., for four practices over spring break, Burress wrote on Twitter: “Looks like Harbaugh is pulling out all (the) stops to get kids to Michigan. We (@MSU_Football) just believe in the product. Don’t have to sell us.”

Burress, who played at MSU in 1997-99, went on to an 11-year NFL career that included several off-field run-ins with the law.
