OSU was 6-7 because Fickell either isn't a good head coach or wasn't ready. In the four seasons going into 2011 OSU was 44-8. The 4 seasons after 2011 OSU went 50-4. The OSU recruiting classes from 09, 10, 11 and 12 ranked #5, #18, #6 and #5. Going into 2015 Harbaugh had the #6, #4, #20 and #37 ranked classes to work with....and a good number of kids from the 4 and 6 ranked classes were already gone. Don't try and kid yourself and think Urban taking over the 2012 team was anything like what Harbaugh took over at Michigan. Urban took over a totally healthy program. Harbaugh took over a broken program with some pieces to work with.

Harbaugh isn't on Urban's level yet. It's just that simple. But it's impossible to argue he isn't a good coach based on his accomplishments. He's flipped around every program he's coached at and if we give him some time, he'll start winning the most important games that have eluded us since 2006.

Nobody has ever said JH isn't a good HC, including myself (he's not an elite HC though). But too many of you meeeechegan fans truly think he's already an elite CFB coach without a complete CFB coaching resume. He hasn't won anything. Now name another coach in any sport that's won nothing yet is called 1 of the elite coaches. Also stop pretending ann arbor has ever had a problem w/ recruiting. The players haven't been the problem before Jimmy Jam's return, the coaches were the problem. Otherwise JH wouldn't have taken Hoke's recruits & doubled the win total his 1st year.

I think Jim Harbaugh is one of only a few coaches who could walk into any program and turn it around in 4-ish years. And by that metric, he's one of the best coaching minds currently out there. To your point, his resume simply does not match, or even come close, to other coaches in that realm like Urban or Saban.

How has he turned UofM around though through nearly 3 years? Has he even beaten a team this year w/ a winning record? No. Has a losing record against his rivals. No division titles, no conference crowns, doesn't have multiple big time bowl W's & of course doesn't have a Natty. What I just mentioned is how I judge a coaches career. Here's my current Mt. Rushmore of great coaches that have complete CFB coaching resumes. Saban, Meyer, Sweeney & Fisher. Sorry but JH can't even be mentioned in the same sentence w/ those 4 HC's right now.

Dunno about ticket prices but there are those in the scUM fanbase calling for Harbaughs head when he was their savior not too long ago
Lol remember when they had to give away free tickets with purchases of coke-a-cola to get butts in the seats :pound:

Hey Ohio State, I heard Michigan say that your girlfriend was an ugly fat bitch and your mom masturbates with your baseball bat. The FAT END.

Hey Michigan, I heard Ohio State say that you like to wear dresses and make-up and your dad french-kissed your pet Maltese's butthole.

Honorable mention has to be NC State. Week 9 of the season they were 6-1 leading the ACC Atlantic, ranked in the top 15 for the first time in forever and the talk was winning their first ACC title since 1979.

Now they are 7-4, eliminated from the conference race and praying to beat a struggling UNC team to avoid getting shipped to Shreveport for the holidays.

Another year another let down.


Okielite and that Fucking 1945 National Championship Banner they bought 70 years after the fact. Serves them right. I didn't know you could buy a NC? Or did they just rent one until Army, puts in a Application?

Someone literally tied tickets to a post because they couldn't give them away for our game vs. Coastal Carolina.

Tickets to our games have been going for about $5 for a month.

To be fair MI fans are dumping their tickets too. Tickets for THE game can be had for less than $100

Well I know Michigan fans have the best dejected facial expressions in the stands. There was some kid crying in the first quarter last weekend. They knew it was over.

Yeah, I was thinking the same. This was supposed to be their breakout season, and they're going to finish out with 4+ losses.

Florida State fans are currently considering hanging Jimbo Fisher in Effigy.

It's a pretty nice little town...y'all ever been there? Effigy, Fl. It's in the Panhandle,
down on the coast.

I was just shocked when I perused Pack Pride that they didn't have some cockamamie conspiracy theory to blame the loss on.
