While I agree Harbaugh is awful, turning the football over was their doom, and Harbaugh only added to the ineptitude

Harbaugh didn't help the cause.

"My QB can't hit the broad side of a barn here lately, but let's go for it on 4th and 10 at our own 25 with 3:30 to go and a timeout."

The defense got more yards at the end of the game than the offense.

Especially when your defense is the unit you want on the field when it matters. You fucking punt, pin them back and play for the next possession.

I kinda doubt it would have made a difference with how SC's defense had been playing, but that's an obvious punt every time in that situation.

Lucky for Michigan, SC missed the FG and it didn't officially end the game.

I believe the biggest tragedy is how many times they threw the football. They should've been running the football from the time they got off the bus until the end of the game. Harbaugh is a dipshit and called that game like he turned Peters into the 2nd coming of Joe Montana. He's a fucking moron and needs to spend more time sleeping over at recruits homes...

More than Chryst has at Wisconsin with much less talent.

Also why is seasons in quote?

I put it in quotes because they've only had one 8-5 season. Also, I think Michigan wins 10 games with Wisconsin's schedule this year. I'm not taking anything away from Wisconsin, but they just happen to have a soft schedule. They had a great year.

Regardless, Michigan has won 28 games under Harbaugh's three seasons. I'm not sure it is time to burn it all down yet.

VERY disappointed in today's performance to say the least. 3 TO's inside the redzone, muffed punt, absolutely terrible passing game. Which would be okay if they had a running game. They do not

Playing woulda shoulda's taking a dump in the redzone, especially inside the 5 ain't helping

Right now? No

However, if things do not dramatically improve in 2018 he is officially a bust.

p.s.
FUCK YOU Desmond Howard

Nice in theory, but as I have argued (mostly with other UM fans) all season, they have NO credible running game to speak of.

I still disagree. He has 2018, and likely 2019 unless it all just melts down (7 wins or less). Honestly, I wouldn't be shocked it he jumped ship to the NFL with all the openings they have right now. I hope he doesn't, Michigan needs him to recruit another top 10-15 class before he leaves.

Right, and if it's not credible you hand off to a tight end so you can fumble? The strength of your team is D, so you run the ball and play D. It shortens the game and then your D doesn't get torched at the end of the game, like they did.

After 2018 he will have had 4 seasons. The anointed QB guru and dynamic recruiter needs to produce on the field. He is earning almost 9 million per season. For that you beat State and oh st.

Not that I don't agree, but if he wins 9-10 games (which he should), they aren't firing him after 2018...unless he is at risk of being bowl ineligible. Now if he loses to MSU and OSU in 2018 AND 2019...then I think he is gone.

No it’s not but you brought him in to win big games. His biggest win away from Ann Arbor, is against a Florida team without their roided out QB in year one. He has not stole a game. He has not won a game he was not a favorite in. So he has yet to beat a team he shouldn’t, and usual beats the teams he should.

Harbaugh can go back to the NFL for all I care. He’s only brought hype to UM and the B1G.

I think we both want to see the same thing. i.e. beating critical rivals, 10 win seasons. But unfortunately the drum beats are growing louder and he is either going to bolt back to the NFL as you suggested or be fired.

Personally, to save face for all involved, I see him leaving on his own accord to the NFL
