This likely has something to do with Friday's delaying his announcement that was scheduled for this weekend.
After meeting with OSU and hearing about Partridge leaving he decided to announce this weekend, then with some more discussions with Michigan he decided to hold off until Wednesday. Now at the end of the weekend Partridge is staying. This is good. Hopefully good enough for Tyler Friday too.
January 14th, 2018 at 10:27 PM ^
Yeah it's Sunday so call Friday on Monday or Tuesday...definitely before Wednsday. Thursday would be too late.
January 14th, 2018 at 8:19 PM ^
There is a god

Huge news
January 14th, 2018 at 8:20 PM ^
I was just posting this. I'm glad I checked the page one last time before posting. There has been a lot of great news this weekend.
January 14th, 2018 at 10:08 PM ^
don't worry, someone will post it again in 24-48 hours
January 14th, 2018 at 10:17 PM ^
after Keith Jackson finally passes away
January 15th, 2018 at 12:34 AM ^
You called it Lol
January 15th, 2018 at 12:39 AM ^
there are just some truths to MGoBlog.
January 15th, 2018 at 12:47 AM ^
It's just unreal how this happens all the time. I slightly understand if it falls off the first page but when it is one thread down with a good title it's laughable.
January 14th, 2018 at 8:21 PM ^
Very solid weekend all around. Fuck yeah
January 14th, 2018 at 8:21 PM ^
Keep the coaches we need to keep. Move out the ones that need to go.
January 14th, 2018 at 8:26 PM ^
saban's OC just left for the NFL, quick, someone give him pep's number!
January 14th, 2018 at 8:39 PM ^
Saban our leftovers for giving us Nuss
January 14th, 2018 at 8:28 PM ^
Next year's coaching staffs are pretty much set. I would be shocked to see any major moves made this late.
January 14th, 2018 at 8:46 PM ^
Only thing would be Pep being hired away, as Feldman alluded to, as NFL things shake out.
January 14th, 2018 at 9:30 PM ^
no reason at this point that he wouldn't have been hired already if Gruden wanted him
January 14th, 2018 at 10:19 PM ^
Raiders aren't the only team with openings. Gruden could be waiting for assistants that are still playing to say no to a QB coach position or something (Gruden allready hired an OC). Other teams have and will have openings as well.
January 14th, 2018 at 9:24 PM ^
including in the NFL, which is always relevant for us.
Remember, there's always movement right after signing day too.
January 15th, 2018 at 8:59 AM ^
Yup. Just ask Mike Weber.
January 14th, 2018 at 8:22 PM ^
News! Thanks for the excellent info! GO BLUE! Have a great week, fellas(ladies).
January 14th, 2018 at 8:23 PM ^
Does Tyler Friday know this yet? CP's first phone call after inking the deal.
January 14th, 2018 at 8:29 PM ^
Is that his coach hates CP from their NJ HS football rivalry days and that he is good buddies with Schiano.
January 14th, 2018 at 8:44 PM ^
That wasn't a problem when we lead for Friday last month. I think CP's uncertainty pushed him to OSU. We will see if there's time for CP to try to win him back.
January 14th, 2018 at 11:02 PM ^
I think that OSU was "full" and then they lost a Cox plus a few other guys on the early signing day. That opened up space for Friday.
I certainly hope we can get back in the race but 2nd best would be for this guy to go to Bama and keep him away from the B1G.
January 14th, 2018 at 8:46 PM ^
Honestly, most coaches in New Jersey still apparently hold a grudge against Chris Partridge.
When Partridge was at Paramus Catholics he was accused of "recruiting" other high schools' players, which is not allowed under New Jersey's high school athletics rules (i.e. Rashan Gary, Minkah Fitzpatrick).
I didn't follow the story super closely, but IIRC, the investigation was unable to conclude if CP contacted the athletes first, or if the athletes contacted CP first, but it was suspicious that Paramus Catholic's program had like 30-40 players transfer onto the football team during his time there.
January 14th, 2018 at 10:22 PM ^
Always been an ace recruiter, no shame
January 14th, 2018 at 8:23 PM ^
Bring on Friday. Tyler Friday.
January 14th, 2018 at 8:33 PM ^
Hell yeah! This is awesomeness news. Made my week. Someone has done a masterful recruiting job on him because just a few days ago he was tending towards a rival big time. I suspect Partridge worked the magic on him
January 14th, 2018 at 8:24 PM ^
Make Jersey eastern Michigan!!!
January 14th, 2018 at 8:27 PM ^
Great friggin news! Great for the stretch run for recruiting too.
Go Blue!
January 14th, 2018 at 8:28 PM ^
Now with the defensive staff all set with no question marks, I’m dying to know the next moves for the offensive staff. With both Drevno and Pep out in full force on the recruiting trail, it definitely makes me wonder.
January 14th, 2018 at 9:49 PM ^
One or both moves on.
January 14th, 2018 at 8:28 PM ^
I'm glad that he re-signed and it wasn't news that he resigned!
January 14th, 2018 at 8:29 PM ^
Sometimes a hyphen can really change a headline!
January 15th, 2018 at 9:09 AM ^
So can a comma:
"Let's eat, Grandma."
"Let's eat Grandma."
January 14th, 2018 at 8:28 PM ^
Re-signed. COMPLETELY different than resigned.. I read the title too fast and had a brief heart-in-mouth moment.
January 14th, 2018 at 8:29 PM ^
Now to deal with Drevno and Pep accordingly.
January 14th, 2018 at 8:32 PM ^
Will be here in the same role as last season, imo. Pep may end up back in the NFL
January 14th, 2018 at 9:49 PM ^
