That's what I was wondering.

I heard on college football live yesterday I believe, that Alabama has 16 staff members for their player personnel/recruiting coordinator positions. Thats on top of their assistant coaches.

Only limits are on the coaching staff.
February 6th, 2015 at 7:45 PM ^
We'll probably end up with less people in the AD since Harbaugh doesn't need a CMO (Lochdogg was making $200,000) and marketing staff. More crootin', less noodlez.
February 6th, 2015 at 8:33 PM ^
February 6th, 2015 at 8:56 PM ^
They don't need to worry about that as Lochdogg told us it was all about the Brand(on).
February 6th, 2015 at 9:33 PM ^
Our new brand activation campaign has eliminated the need for Denard Robinsons. Market research shows most people will happily stare at the block M on an empty field for several hours before realizing there are no football players.

Ask the guy who posted the Barbarians at the Gate thread. I'm sure he knows.
February 6th, 2015 at 7:28 PM ^
Is it just me, or is this football support staff freaking huge? Or is it just more evident because literally everyone got the ax?

I remember when UM recruited him. He was a 4 star recruit if I recall correctly.
Edit:Awesome picture of Singletary with Brady and Jones from his classmates profile.

We're just now becoming comparable to other programs across the country. This is how it should be. One of the last vestiges of, "This is Michigan, you should want to work here for free," was previous regimes' small support staffs.
February 6th, 2015 at 7:47 PM ^
I heard someting about Alabama having a huge support staff just dedicated to recruiting film. They screen them first and pass em along to Saban if the recruit is worth his attention. That way he can focus more on coaching.
If that's what were going for, then awesome.

near as large. I know we are following the Alabama model but does anyone know how many other schools have this many support people? I am guessing this may be common in the SEC but maybe hasn't been the norm in the B1G.
From what I have read, the smaller staffs appear to have been normal for Michigan. Maybe this was Hoke's fault for not asking for a larger staff or it may have not been allowed by Brandon. Regardless, I'm sure Harbaugh insisted on it before agreeing to come to Michigan.

Not sure that people fully understand how small our staff has been compared to others. Singletary was doing things that others schools divide up between 10 people. M is just now coming out of the Dark Ages in many ways. Ridiculous that it's taken this long.
February 6th, 2015 at 8:26 PM ^
February 6th, 2015 at 8:46 PM ^
I'm happy for you.

Wow, football staffers now being pulled in from all corners of the football universe. The army is being assembled, and JH is not playin'

I don't know why people have trouble with the two Miamis. There is the University of Miami and Miami University. It's simple.
February 6th, 2015 at 8:13 PM ^
Spoken like someone who went to Miami University. To everyone else, there is Miami and Miami*.

nah, they're almost always called "Miami of Ohio" in a national athletic context (or "Miami (OH)" in print). Miami U/U of Miami is only an obvious disambiguation to NTM's alumni... after years of recruits calling us "Michigan University", it should be obvious to everyone that most people don't have a firm grasp on such distinctions anyway.
