The later one would be awesome. It would be pay back for when George Steinbrenner (alum of THE ohio) "made" Drew Henson leave U of M early.

Not gonna get them.

I'm sure Ian Rap-a-turd will bring it up.

lol link to live video plz

Ask and you shall receive...the dude's donkey laugh in the studio really makes it all come together

I saw it brought up yesterday during the game. Tweet said something to the effect of, "If I'm a Dolphins fan, I'm very mad about the fact that Ross encouraged Harbaugh to go back to Michigan instead of trying to lure him to the Dolphins."
October 5th, 2015 at 2:10 PM ^
Yeah, I actually LOL'd when I heard that. I am pretty sure that is not how the Harbaugh to Michigan thing actually played out.
October 5th, 2015 at 1:38 PM ^
How about 24 hours ago. Bill Simmons was tweeting that if he was a Dolphin fan he'd be pissed that Ross didnt try harder for Harbaugh during the game.
October 6th, 2015 at 9:06 PM ^
Like, imagine you're a Dolphins fan and that's the main team you care about, and you hear your owner isn't interested in trying to poach the best coach in football from his alma mater. Wouldn't that kind of enrage you that he wouldn't even TRY?
I mean, we all know that Harbaugh's not going, but if you're a guy sitting in Dade county desperate to see your favorite team not be shit (which is the perspective Simmons writes from, he doesn't claim to be a NFL reporter or have HOT SOURCES) I could see that being a thing that really makes you mad.
If I was an NFL fan of a hopelessly bad team, I'd be real mad if my team didn't at least make Harbaugh turn them down.

i hear Sarah really likes the South Beach area.

Didn't take long at all:
Jim Harbaugh: Ross denied back in March that he had courted Harbaugh once the latter left the 49ers. Ross's presence at the University of Michigan—he donated $200 million to the eponymous business school—makes it almost unfathomable to believe he would ask Harbaugh to leave Ann Arbor after just one year on the job there. Count on hearing the suggestion, though.-SI.com

begin...
October 5th, 2015 at 1:30 PM ^
He "steered" Harbaugh to Michigan over taking a run at him for the Dolphins. I mean if we go by the schedule that John U set up that's not possible but it is still pretty entertaining to read.
October 5th, 2015 at 1:32 PM ^
I like Bill Simmons a lot but these national guys have no clue what goes on in college coaching

All those guys - consciously or subconsciously - assume the college game is automatically inferior to the NFL and its just a proving ground for guys just waiting for the call to the big leagues.
I think the meddling execs and short tenures make the NFL fairly unattractive. Way harder to keep your job at that level

@BillSimmons Happy to send you a copy of ENDZONE, NYT Bestseller, about how Harbaugh didn't wait for any NFL offers before picking UM.

@BillSimmons To be clear, the offer of a complimentary copy of ENDZONE is sincere, with zero smart-assery. Honest. Happy to send you one.

Ross should use his position as an NFL owner to hire important coaches from Michigan's upcoming opponents. Their interm HC should be our old friend mfosu DC Luke Fickell.

Stephen Ross should give Urban a shot at the NFL.
October 5th, 2015 at 1:57 PM ^
Why isn't Urban's name ever come up for NFL coaching jobs? I think he's very likely to be an excellent NFL head coach. Is it the spread system or something else? Just curious.
October 5th, 2015 at 4:16 PM ^
October 5th, 2015 at 9:17 PM ^
I don't see him controlling a bunch of pros with no incentive to listen to him. I think it would be very Saban-like: in over his head and he'd bail back to the college game in no time
October 5th, 2015 at 2:15 PM ^
Make this happen. I know it won't, but it would be so great.

Did they at least let him off the plane from London?
October 5th, 2015 at 2:15 PM ^
I think they made him fly coach back.
Or maybe they sent him on a Ryanair vacation to Palma (but he had to leave his luggage in London).
October 5th, 2015 at 1:52 PM ^
I bet Mora is a candidate. He's been very successful at UCLA and seems like an NFL guy at heart (and since he isn't a UCLA alum, he doesn't have the emotional connection to the school that Harbaugh has here). A lot of people have assumed he's basically auditioning for a return to the NFL, a la Pete Carroll. And it certainly worked out in that case.
