Game Thread: Nebraska @ Michigan

Good win for the Huskers. I wish I'd have picked them. Dang it!

Hey Brasky I'm here to take my medicine. Counting the days till Hoke is fired. Just post the avi here.

If Hoke gets fired, do we LSU fans have to put up with more "Miles to Michigan" crap?

More than likely. Hoke will get fired if this happens again next year which it looks like it will.

Hoke is not getting fired, nor should he be.

Now Funk (and maybe Borges) on the other hand......

What exactly does Hoke do on the sidelines besides clap?

What does any head coach do (unless they are a primary play caller)?

Tries to act slim.

Win?

Well, he does point at things.

Win?

And that was Hoke's first loss at home, he has a record of 25-10 (0.714) while at Michigan. Seems to me we wins more than he looses.

Hoke is awful...

No player development whatsoever on this team. I remember seeing a thread on Mich247 talking about Urban being left with scraps at OL. I think its true in many ways, but what is sad is that Urban took a bunch of 3 star guys and turned them into beasts. Michigan takes 4 and 5 star guys and turns them into 2 star duds.

These losses are going to hurt Michigan on signing day. If I were a Big Ten coach I would be swooping in like a vulture on their recruits. Its not like the negative recruiting I'd be talking up wouldn't be true.

Good win for the Corn huskers.

Ours use to read a Denny's menu….. Then he got fired

He's a glorified D line coach (his own words) he says he knows what's going on like play calling and all of that but I don't believe him.

Please sign the petition that will be sent to the Michigan Athletic Department, requesting the football program move to a new conference....either the MAC or Ohio Valley Conference.

You can start to raise questions about Hoke, that is fair. But consider this Bill McCartney of Colorado went 2-8-1, 4-7, and 1-10 is his first three season. Colorado had patience and McCartney ended up winning a national title and made Colorado a power in the 90's. So giving the ashes that Rich Rod left, it is going to take time, Rome wasn't built in a day.

And it is unfair to compare what Meyer has done with his O-line, he's playing seniors and juniors, so he actually had time to develop them. Hoke is play freshman and sophomores, just starting in their development. You're comparing apples to oranges.

On defensive plays I would believe, on offensive, he has admitted to not being the best at that. He defiently delegates that down to his OC, which isn't inheritly a bad thing, he just needs and OC he can depend on. Hence why before we even think about firing Hoke, he should be giving an opprotunity to shake up his staff.

Well after all, you must admit the fact that accepting reality is way better than waking up every day to a false hope.
