Out of the Box DC Candidate
Tanned, rested and ready is the DC of our ferocious 1985 defense as featured by The Wolverine Historian. Gary Moeller is still part of the Michigan family and though no spring chicken he is a bit younger than Monte Kiffin. If he is at all interested in getting back into coaching this could be a good fit and a chance to expunge the unfortunate feelings that surrounded his departure. A few years with Mo at the helm to get traditional Michigan toughness back into the defense and then have him groom a successor.

On the one hand, it would be great, because Moeller was a great DC in his time at Michigan. But RR has enough problems with the Lloyd faction in AA; hard to see why he would hire someone who would give the Lloyd crew an ideal HC replacement if RR was ever to go down.
Unfortunate that such political factors would play a role, but that's life.

Co-Coordinators Ruxpin and Puffinstuff.

The obvious candidate. Put some batteries in him and watch him coach.
November 18th, 2010 at 5:50 PM ^
He has never profesionally witnessed a modern spread offense. Just sayin...

That smudge on in your rearview mirror, that's the line you just crossed.
Disturbing man.
November 18th, 2010 at 7:54 PM ^
I doubt very much he has the energy to coach at this stage of his life.
November 18th, 2010 at 11:18 PM ^
shoot. he's young enough to be joe pa's kid.
November 18th, 2010 at 7:58 PM ^
Cannot get more out of the box than Lloyd Carr.
And we are done.
November 18th, 2010 at 8:14 PM ^
Bud Foster Virginia Tech would be an outside of the box DC.

Rumor has it that Carl Pelini is going to be gone from Nebraska after this year. Coming from a usually reliable source, C. Pelini has had an illicit relationship with a Nebraska cheerleader and Tom Osbourne caught wind of it. Apparently, Osbourne was incensed and asked for his resignation effective at season's end or be fired. Of course that's something they are going to try and keep quiet at NEB., but if Bo Pelini's brother is gone at season's end, we know why.
I mention this b/c he is an up and coming DC with an impressive resume. I think it would be very difficult to get him to come to Michigan as DC as he would be coaching against his brother in conference. Though........Hell, it's worth a try. If Gerg is no longer here that is.
