So, here's a little side bar, where do Michigan's last two coaches end up once this year's coaching carousel comes to stop?
I've heard Rich Rod's name linked to a couple of jobs that are open, namely Miami and Virginia Tech (which oddly enough is being perceived as the better job of the two)...
We've had the first game with Jim Harbaugh as coach, and not single thread in the Michigan section. A little disappointing guys.
So.......only watched the first half (was at DragonCon, and I got the stankeye for watching sports), and overall, not bad. Disappointed about the lose, but I did...
Devin Funchess Enters NFL Draft | mgoblog
No real surprise here, could have used him next year but given even if Michigan lands Harbaugh next year would likely be a struggle. And he has the talent for the NFL (though still could use some refinement), so I don't blame him for wanting to get...
So, my cautious optimism at the beginning of the season was faulty, and we are now in the middle of Michigan's third coach search in a decade.
Time to discuss! Rumors, desires, etc.
The three names I think on the top of everyone's list are Jim-John Harbuagh (okay, so I merged two names...
As some of you know, I've been a Hoke supporter these past couple of years. And honesty part of that is a backlash against those that do things like the "H/Joke" thing (come on folks, we are Michigan fans, we are better than resorting to ad hominem!) but also because I hate this notion of...
So, it's been quiet in here during the off-season. Well we are three days from kick-off so it is time for Michigan football!
I know I've said this before, but I'm optimistic about this season. I know people are over looking Michigan (and not without reason) but I think Hoke and Michigan...
Find it ironic that Urban Meyer is crying about the BCS being a "flawed system."
Funny, he had no problems with it back in 2006 when he was campaiging for Florida.
Seriously.
Sure, this was a disappointing loss, but the team is still 5-1, Hoke is still 24-8 as the Michigan head coach (not to mention still 18-0 at home, best since Yost) and still in the divers seat for the Legends division. Besides, honestly who thought Michigan would go 12-0 (admittedly...
As bad as the two games were (and they were pretty bad) Michigan still came away with the W. Now consider the 2007, Michigan started off with two really bad loses, but were able to recover and have a good season, ending with defeating a Florida team of Meyer and Tebow, and if it weren't for...
So I recently had this thought, with Gardner now honoring Tom Harmon's #98, all previously retired jersey's have been "un-retired." The question then becomes, "now what?" What's the next number/player to get that privilege? To my knowledge no other big names wore #2, so that's probably a good...
Forgive my ignorance, but what exactly are the rules for red shirting. Namely should (and here's hoping) that Gardner goes the entire season healthy and Morris only gets minimal playing time, can he still technically get this season as a red shirt while being the backup?
So I'm going to call it right now, the 2014 Rose Bowl will be matchup between Michigan and Stanford. Which will be appropriate given that this will be the 100th edition of the game, and the first one was a matchup between these two schools.
Though what would be even better, since the BCS...
