?Recruiting Question?
January 11th, 2011 at 12:15 PM ^
reports are leaking out everywhere that Miles won't be our next coach.
January 11th, 2011 at 12:21 PM ^
It would cost us too much to get him and then assistants.
I say get Hoke and make a play for TCU's DC Dick Bumpas
January 11th, 2011 at 12:23 PM ^
I'm burning everything in the world to the ground.
January 11th, 2011 at 12:30 PM ^
Hoke has made bad teams good from Ball St. to SDSU.
Les Miles didn't have to at LSU and didn't do well at Oklahoma St. I will give LM credit for maintaining LSU.
My problem with LM is that what we pay him we can pay a whole staff.
We come out cheaper with Hoke and tryi ng to get TCU, DC Dick Bumpas

Hmm... you have a good question.
January 11th, 2011 at 12:21 PM ^
This isnt about who our next coach will be? Next D-day thread please...
January 11th, 2011 at 12:21 PM ^
Miles is not coming Gruden is not coming, the only coach we can get is Hoke, this is a joke. Thank all those people who claim to be all in for M but are really self serving pompous pricks. We could have had 5-6 players from the army all-american game now we might not have 1. This whole situation is typical M arrogance. Disgusting.

Doom & Gloom. I've got some Koolaid for sip'n if you're interested; although, it is leftover from the RR era.
January 11th, 2011 at 12:25 PM ^
Well if it is indeed Brady Hoax then I will be transfering to another school as well. Not sure who I will adopt as my new team.
January 11th, 2011 at 12:28 PM ^
Try Stanford...the Michigan guy is gone and the academics and weather are superb.
January 11th, 2011 at 12:29 PM ^
Seriously? Pick OSU. We don't want yer kind around here anyway.
You're probably joking, but that's just lame.
January 11th, 2011 at 12:29 PM ^
Great, because nobody here would want you to stick around.
January 11th, 2011 at 12:27 PM ^
Seriously if that is your attitude, don't share! You have no idea what the future holds no matter who the coach is freakin support them. Your pitty party is annoying!
January 11th, 2011 at 12:32 PM ^
To strike down a coach before he gets this job is unacceptable as we all know how that works out. If you don't like who is hired, please do commence rooting for a new team. Also, this process is taxing, but I'm getting rather tired of all of these crybaby FML emo posts.
January 11th, 2011 at 12:28 PM ^
Maybe you should go vent to someone...
January 11th, 2011 at 12:30 PM ^
This whole situation was sabotaged by the stubborn Michigan fans who refused to let Rich Rod have a legitimate shot at making this work. All along people were out to get him - waiting for him to slip up, and then pouncing on him for every little mistake he made. At the beginning of this past season if you had said Michigan would win 7 games, most people would have said "that's about what I expect" and Rich Rod's job wouldn't have been in jeopardy.
He should never have been fired. Our schedule is so favorable next year, and we have nearly everyone on offense and defense coming back. Next year was going to be the year. Our record for next season has already dropped from 10 wins to 7. If we hire Hoke and he forces a square peg into a round hole by starting yet another transition back to a pro style offense we'll be lucky to get bowl eligible... and we'll deserve the crappy results we'll get.
January 11th, 2011 at 12:33 PM ^
Whoever the coach is, I will support them and the program 100%. However, it really feels like in the past week and a half we cut off our nose to spite our face.
January 11th, 2011 at 12:33 PM ^
But people don't want to hear the truth. It's sad more than anything.
January 11th, 2011 at 12:37 PM ^
It amazes me that people talk negatively of Michigan's arrogance but they still demand to be a part of it.
January 11th, 2011 at 12:34 PM ^
I admit...Hoke is not a "sexy" hire, and I wouldn't be psyched if we got him. But, if he is hired and turns out to be a winner at UM, how will all of you doom-n-gloomers behave? Bottom line is none of us has any idea how well any coach will perform. Gruden is exciting and may lose and vice versa for Hoke. Why don't we all just wait and see who the coach is, get used to it and then root for your team?

RR wouldn't have continued getting better?? That's why this is all so insane. We were getting recruits, mostly on defense. Offense would have made another huge jump and D with a new coord. would have at least been in the top 70next year and the few years after that been much better. I know it's in the past now but why can't I be pissed as hell. Anyone with half a football brain can see what this all is and now if we go through another system change it's gonna be another 3-4 years...but I guess the majority of you find that to be ok as long as we have a "M Man" which is complete hog shit, you become a M Man when you spend time there, ala Bo.
