Why are you all so worried about Magee leaving? We really need another defensive coach or a special teams coach. Right now there are essentially 3 Qb coaches with Rodriguez, Smith, and Magee. Like another poster said, Smith can just move up to OC.

No, we don't need another defensive coach.  That is dumb.  Essentially every team has the same number of offensive and defensive coaches that we do.

And Magee isn't a QB coach.  He was a TE in the NFL and coaches the tight ends.  Don't be ridamndiculous.

Has anyone heard the rumor about Butch Jones eating at Zingerman's...no...because i just made that up. However a rumor that is probably true.... Drew Sharp and Mike rosenberg were seen on camera at the Detroit Zoo Clubbing baby seals. And they were regular attendees at Michael Vick's dog fights. I even think i saw them on an episode of Whale Wars trying to sodomize baby dolphins.

i think about this...i think this is a classic case of RR letting Calvin look around for gigs in the slim event he loses his job. wishful thinking i know!

Didn't Calvin McGee interview for a HC position at South Florida last year?  He is a viable candidate to move up, and the season just ended, so this is nothing unusual.

It lends to the theory that RR may have been told he would be released after the bye out dropped to 2.5M in early Jan.  Sad to see him leave but that's life as a coach at a major football university.  Time is money, and when you collect the big bucks you better produce fast. I disagree but DB has probably projected into the future and has decided that RR is not the coach. A defense that got worse and no special teams.  RR may have been banking on Casteel but he should have had a much better plan B!

I know you're joking, but that would have the potential to be awesome.  Bring in a Michigan guy to make everyone happy, let Rodriguez coach the offense because the offense is awesome, and hopefully Harbaugh could bring in a DC to make good things happen on that side of the ball.

I vote for you as the new AD whenever David Brandon moves on.

No. Way. No way that Rodriguez would take a slap in the face like that and accept such a major demotion. He'd be left no choice but to walk or be canned. Also no way that Harbaugh and Rodriguez could (either one) co-exist peacefully, both would want control. I've had the same crazy thought but I always stamp it out before I get excited about the wickedly awesome possibilities.

makes sense... but i think we need to hold on to magee. great recruiter, great coach, but is kind of over shadowed by the offensive prowess of RR

still a great man, coach, and Michigan Man. Hope he says with the BLUE! (our blue not florida's blue(!))

I figured Calin McGee was not long for MIchigan, but I'd be surprised if he ends up as an OC at another major university.  We can either match any offer they make or at least come close.  I'm surprised he's not being mentioned for more head coaching jobs like the Minnesota job.
