University of Michigan head coach Jim Harbaugh has been as busy as ever on Twitter these days. His latest tweet was congratulating a lady he has admired for years.
Big Congrats to Judge Judy on signing her contract extension thru 2020 from a Devout Fan!

Yes, Judge Judy has a major fan in Harbaugh, who had this to say about her and her show (via ESPN).
Trust is big to me. I’m a big fan of the Judge Judy show. When you lie in Judge Judy’s courtroom, it’s over. Your credibility is completely lost and you stand no chance of winning that case. I learned that from her. It’s very powerful. And true. If somebody lies to you, how can you trust anything they say after that?
Want more proof Harbaugh is a big fan of the no nonsense Judge? Here he is sitting in her courtroom next to his father as a guest for one of her recordings.

While Harbaugh probably thought his congratulations tweet was among the many several thousand she received, imagine his excitement when she personally responded to his tweet.
Thank you so much for the kind wishes @CoachJim4UM, best of luck this year at Michigan!

A shout out from @JudgeJudy would make anyone's day, thank you! The BEST! & Excellence are easy to spot, Judge Judy is it's highest level.

It’s probably a good thing the Judge didn’t further respond, because something tells me this back and forth could have gone on for days.
