Harbaugh vs Franklin subplot next week
Next week's game will will determine the winningest (active) Big Ten coach since Harbaugh's arrival in 2015. Many on this board have called for Harbaugh's firing but the reality is he has been pretty good overall (other than being owned by Meyer - like most every other coach in the Big Ten).
GO BLUE !!! BEAT JAMES FRANKLIN & THE JOE PA APOLOGISTS !
Record since 2015:
Jim Harbaugh 43-15
James Franklin 43-15
Kirk Ferentz 41-17
Mark Dantonio 36-22
Pat Fitrzgerald 37-21
p.s. Urban Meyer went 45-5 (2015-2018)

Don't care about anything other than the "main plot"...Michigan please win!!!!
October 12th, 2019 at 4:30 PM ^
Huge game - we will see what this team is made of. I am not confident, but Joe Moorhead is not walking through that door...
October 12th, 2019 at 5:45 PM ^
I am still waiting for Joe Moorhead Jr to show up at Michigan.
October 12th, 2019 at 5:46 PM ^
That makes two of us my friend...
October 12th, 2019 at 7:23 PM ^
We already are seeing what the team is made of.
October 12th, 2019 at 4:31 PM ^
Big caveat that Urban is gone. Being the best out of the rest is like being the tallest midget.
October 12th, 2019 at 4:34 PM ^
You managed to be incorrect and offensive! Good job!
October 12th, 2019 at 4:38 PM ^
Why is that offensive?
October 12th, 2019 at 4:43 PM ^
Because these fucking loser millennials are easily offended by words. They really need to grow the fuck up.
October 12th, 2019 at 4:54 PM ^
Andidklein's post being upvoted confirms what I've suspected: MGoBoard's base is graying.
October 12th, 2019 at 4:57 PM ^

And the old dudes go wiiiiiiild!!!
October 12th, 2019 at 5:39 PM ^
We’re reaching peak RCMB by 2021, count on it.
October 12th, 2019 at 8:39 PM ^
Don’t worry, areyounew. If andidklein’s post made you uncomfortable, just contact the UM Anti-bias Task Force. They’ll have a team out to investigate before any more tears are shed. That’s what they’re there for.

Brad Williams the "midget" comedian would approve of this approach. Damn funny.
October 12th, 2019 at 10:43 PM ^
Brilliant
October 12th, 2019 at 11:25 PM ^
This is so funny because none of us are midgets!
October 12th, 2019 at 5:17 PM ^
Username most definitely checks out.
October 12th, 2019 at 5:27 PM ^
Found the midget ^
October 12th, 2019 at 4:31 PM ^
October 12th, 2019 at 4:32 PM ^
Penn State still has a game tonight.
October 12th, 2019 at 5:07 PM ^
Hoping they get Kinnicked by Iowa
October 12th, 2019 at 6:56 PM ^
I was hoping someone pointed this out to the OP.
October 12th, 2019 at 4:35 PM ^
We don't want Meyer. He wins too much. Oh ,I meant he doesn't lose enough.
October 12th, 2019 at 4:37 PM ^
He doesn’t lose enough sleep over enabling a wife beater.
October 12th, 2019 at 5:01 PM ^
Or a serial killer.
October 12th, 2019 at 4:37 PM ^
Sorry to burst your bubble, but Paul Chryst is 47-12 since 2015.
October 12th, 2019 at 4:44 PM ^
Darn it...I knew I was forgetting someone ! My bad.
October 12th, 2019 at 4:50 PM ^
Yep, maybe the best X and Os coach in the B1G. Does more with less. People better start worrying about Wisky.
October 12th, 2019 at 4:53 PM ^
October 12th, 2019 at 5:02 PM ^
Meh...If Michigan played in the B1G West division Harbaugh would have a better record than that,
October 12th, 2019 at 5:21 PM ^
Michigan is leading the nation in the If category, that is for sure!
October 12th, 2019 at 4:40 PM ^
Harbaugh's been kind of owned as a road team by any good team.
October 12th, 2019 at 5:01 PM ^
Same can be said about franklin
October 12th, 2019 at 5:08 PM ^
Doesn’t help us next week.
October 13th, 2019 at 3:52 PM ^
So has virtually everyone else in the big ten
October 12th, 2019 at 4:45 PM ^
Franklin won the conference.....he will always be ahead especially with the rate James is going
October 12th, 2019 at 5:03 PM ^
I'm thoroughly unimpressed with Harbaugh but let's be honest: there is a real whiff of illegitimacy to Franklin's Big Ten title.
Their '16 win over OSU was ass-backwards lucky. Then they needed Michigan to choke their ass off vs. Iowa AND have that shady UM-OSU game to break the right way to get to Indy. And then when there, they faced Wisconsin's backup QB.
Even as someone who hates fans talking about "luck", that was REAL lucky. Franklin and Harbaugh are both buffoons.
October 12th, 2019 at 6:01 PM ^
PSU run started with an overtime win at Minnesota. Minnesota on the road is not a gimme but the OT win there leans toward unimpressive.
October 13th, 2019 at 8:11 AM ^
As illegitimate as you'd like to believe it was, one of those buffoons has a conference title. Winning is winning, I'm sure we wouldn't be hearing about that "illegitimacy" if Michigan had one that title. A "lucky" win over OSU... haha yea i'll take that.
October 12th, 2019 at 4:46 PM ^
1-10 vs top 10 teams. 2-7 vs rivals. 1-3 Bowl games.
October 12th, 2019 at 4:49 PM ^
Yeah. But we beat Rutgers AND Illinois in the same season.
October 12th, 2019 at 4:52 PM ^
Did "most every other Big Ten coach" ever enter against Meyer as a 4-point favorite and give up 62 points?
October 12th, 2019 at 4:52 PM ^
Franklin isn’t a good coach. The bar continues to get lower around here.
October 12th, 2019 at 5:38 PM ^
People keep saying that and he keeps having good seasons.
October 12th, 2019 at 5:48 PM ^
People just used to have high standards. Now it’s clear both Harbaugh AND franklin aren’t anything special.
October 12th, 2019 at 5:01 PM ^
This has got to be the dumbest thread ever. Who gives a fuck about wins since 2015?? Kirk ferentz is the winningest head coach in the big ten and ryan day has the best win percentage.
