There is hope in 2014!

THE NUSS BUS!
January 8th, 2014 at 10:45 PM ^
Posbang to all!
January 8th, 2014 at 10:56 PM ^
Great hire. I can't wait to see how the 2015 recruiting class fills out as well as how the 2014 team performs. I have to believe a message was sent to McDowell also that Hoke is determined to win.
January 9th, 2014 at 12:29 AM ^
Agreed! I would think this could send a pretty good message to recruits - not only was he very successful there, but he left Alabama to come here! Here's to 2014!
January 9th, 2014 at 12:36 AM ^
Wait... how many Bama OC's did we just hire? ROLL TIDE
January 9th, 2014 at 7:53 AM ^
I'm absolutely beside myself... Great hire for Coach Hoke and Dave Brandon.
Go Blue!
January 8th, 2014 at 10:46 PM ^
WOOOOOO!!!!!!
January 8th, 2014 at 11:16 PM ^
I'm all like...
January 8th, 2014 at 10:46 PM ^
I'm actually excited to watch Michigan football again!
January 8th, 2014 at 10:46 PM ^
Tonight has left me thoroughly paloos'd. But in a good way.
January 8th, 2014 at 10:47 PM ^
January 9th, 2014 at 7:54 AM ^
Very timely, and appropriate!
January 8th, 2014 at 10:47 PM ^
Wow!!
January 8th, 2014 at 10:48 PM ^
You beat me to the punch by a minute on this thread. Posbang me! Woo, Nussmeier!
January 8th, 2014 at 11:10 PM ^
January 8th, 2014 at 11:34 PM ^
Just because there is a new doesn't mean it is still not true though. There is a reason he was fired.

Pretty good day for me. Just skied a two feet of fresh snow at Bridger Bowl, Montana. Got home and saw Borges was fired.
Now we hire this guy? I'm super impressed hearing him speak in this clip before the NC game last year against ND: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eLRaPNk2LW8
January 8th, 2014 at 10:49 PM ^
Dear Al,
We will always have ND 2011 and 2013, Indiana 2013, and Ohio 2011 (and sorta 2013), along with sundry other good individual and team performances. I wish you well in the future.
Dear Coach Nuss,
We are looking forward to more memories, more records, and most important: more B1G wins, rivalry wins, and bowl wins!!!!!
With love,
Michigan fans
January 9th, 2014 at 9:55 AM ^
Short and sweet and classy!
January 8th, 2014 at 10:50 PM ^
I NUSS ask a question of all of you...
How awesome is this?
January 8th, 2014 at 11:08 PM ^
24 hours makes. George? Did you see what Hoke did? Come back home. Its fine now.
January 8th, 2014 at 10:50 PM ^
Please revive our running game, Doug!
January 8th, 2014 at 10:50 PM ^
What an awesome hire!
January 8th, 2014 at 10:50 PM ^
Welcome Coach Nussmeier! Can't wait for the season to start!
January 8th, 2014 at 10:50 PM ^
I bet he even tells Heiko that he has a separate playbook dedicated specifically to screens...
January 8th, 2014 at 10:51 PM ^
Combine this great OC news with Brian's hope-filled defensive analysis for an experience laden 2014 defense and you get a POSBANG!
January 8th, 2014 at 10:52 PM ^
January 8th, 2014 at 10:53 PM ^
Wooooooooooo
January 8th, 2014 at 10:54 PM ^
Yeah!!!! The board is barely working and I don't even care!!! Whooooooo!!!
January 8th, 2014 at 11:37 PM ^
January 8th, 2014 at 10:54 PM ^
When they said I'd be please with the hire, as a Michigan fan, they were wrong. I'm LIKE A 5 YEAR OLD ON CHRISTMAS HAPPY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
January 8th, 2014 at 10:55 PM ^
Great hire
January 8th, 2014 at 10:55 PM ^
with his track record with QBs, I can't wait to see what Nuss can do with senior Devin Gardner!!!
January 8th, 2014 at 10:55 PM ^
This is absolutely fantastic news. To get a coach like this less than four hours after sending Al on his merry way is like whipped cream on top of the cherry that sits on top of whipped cream that sits on top of Kate Upton.
January 8th, 2014 at 11:44 PM ^
but I'm assuming this has been in the works for weeks. I just wonder how long Borges knew. Did they hire Nussmeier behind his back or has Al known he's been fired for a few weeks and just keep quiet?
January 9th, 2014 at 12:01 AM ^
I would guess they began negotiations with Nuss about 30 seconds after the BWW game ended and finalized them this afternoon around 4:30 or so. Once they had that deal done it was time for Al's annual performance review and as we all know now....that didn't go so good.
I doubt Al got "pre-fired" Gordon but I also have no doubt they had Nuss lined up and ready to go before they sent Al packing.
January 8th, 2014 at 10:55 PM ^
trying to pick my jaw up.
January 8th, 2014 at 10:56 PM ^

January 8th, 2014 at 10:56 PM ^
Teach me teach me how to Nuss-ie...!
January 8th, 2014 at 10:57 PM ^
Dude must be getting paid. Nice to see a young adaptable guy who could even be HC material one day.
January 8th, 2014 at 10:57 PM ^
Any chance we get back God as of S&C coordinaor?
I swear, all hires should be crowsourced by alumni!
January 8th, 2014 at 10:58 PM ^
Is gonna be a hell of a year
GO BLUE
