OT: Its Friderp

Terrible day, terrible awful stooopid day. So in order to share my misery I felt the need to post a pointless stooopid thread. I figure most of the peeps will comment and talk shit which may make me feel better, or make me commit suicide. 50/50.  The only thing that gives me comfort today is something my Grandmother told me a long time ago. "Dark Blue" she said, "its better to get  pissed off then pissed on." Grandma was a wise woman.

Well, I slept through 2 hours of my alarm this morning and showed up to work like 4 hours late. And now that I'm here, I'm on mgoblog. So probably a pretty terrible work day, but not too bad of a Friday. Except, of course, I'm going to have to make up all the work I missed by working tonight, so that kind of sucks. Now that I think about it, Fridays are stupid.

I think grandma should have given you a hug, you are in obvious need of some attention. I like a good joke as much as the next guy but more often than not you are not even funny. The first time I read your sig. a gave a little chuckle, now your act has grown old.

i was wondering, now that we have a head coach who represents a direct line of succession from the previous regime and represents a direct admittal that the previous regime was a mistake, can we talk about what should have been done as carr neared his retirement to shore things up? 

should hoke have been named coach in waiting after his success ball state?

should harbaugh have been named coach in waiting after his success at __?

is a coach in waiting even appropriate?

basically if you (assuming you are the athletic dept) knew then what you knew now, what would you do?

 

the only reason to do this study was to try to understand what can be done next time around, hopefully in like 15 years.

Does the whole "coach in waiting" thing still work?

The only two coaches in waiting I could think of are Jimbo Fisher and Will Muschamp. Fisher finally got the job when Bowden was booted out and Muschamp jumped ship when a head coaching job came along. Are programs still doing the "coach in waiting" plan?

I am this close to going all Dark Blue in here.

i think its more of a wink wink thing.  i think that bielema was a coach in waiting. i think that the DC at VTech is a coach in waiting.  pretty sure WVU just hired the OC from OklaSt to be coach in waiting there.  i would think that muschamp would still be at texas if the HC at one of the best programs in the country hadn't flaked out.

That coach in waiting still works at is penn state. That coach has to have a cubs fan mentality when it comes to joe paterno retiring, this is the year, and that year is always met with disappointment.

While the philosophy may have been valid, didn't Michigan really need to clean house with the coaching staff after 2007? Would Hoke/Harbaugh have done that if they had succeeded Carr in some fashion? I almost think you have to do something to get in all the new blood that we currently have now.

relatively little since they left, which leads me to believe that there was a lot of dead wood / not a lot of bright young talent, which leads to the idea of coach in waiting. i don't expect that scot loeffler would have been a credible name, ron english? terrible situation but he has not made it much better.

the thing that kills me is that i remember raging about carr in 2004 about some recent loss and a friend of mine who is a huge ND fan says "carr is not retiring until hart and henne are done."  if it was clear enough for everyone else to see, why did they not try to get some guys in who could eventually take over?

Yeah, until they die 6 months after you buy one...at least that's what happened to me.

Yeah that definitely sucks. My first one lasted from release to about July 2008. I got it fixed and it lasted until Christmas this last year. I have a Xbox 360 'Slim' now and have had no issues.

its a matter of what's more important to you - would you rather have your xbox break in 6 months (and have msft repair it for you for free) or do you want russian hackers to steal your identity?
