Let's hope.
December 30th, 2018 at 4:38 PM ^
Not just for pep but the whole fucking coaching staff need to go
December 30th, 2018 at 4:47 PM ^
Nice to see the calm rational analysis there
December 30th, 2018 at 5:05 PM ^
What part of the last 4 games was not clear to you?

I'm so sorry. *Cough* Why don't people understand that Harbaugh is a great coach? We had 10 wins against great teams. The blowout losses to OSU and Florida by were just unlucky circumstances out of his control. We will be better next year and anyone who doesn't believe that can get the fuck out.
Again, I'm so sorry. Can you ever forgive me?
December 31st, 2018 at 8:44 AM ^
Did you honestly think that losing Higdon, Gary and Bush to the NFL and then Gil and Dwumfour to injuries in the first half was going to translate to a win over Florida???
We don't have that kind of depth yet.

Had to set up a new account just to make a stupid statement

Football coaches like to go to football games to watch football.
December 30th, 2018 at 3:22 PM ^
Nobody goes to Green Bay on purpose in December.
Let's be realistic. He was in Georgia yesterday.
December 30th, 2018 at 3:37 PM ^
What about traveling cheddar salesmen?
December 30th, 2018 at 4:08 PM ^
I'm a traveling salesman, and I'll be in Green Bay next weekend.
But I don't sell cheddar. Only Limburger.
December 30th, 2018 at 5:51 PM ^
I've heard you can make decent bread selling Limburger.
December 30th, 2018 at 6:38 PM ^
If you do it right, you don't need any bread to go with your limberger
December 30th, 2018 at 5:53 PM ^
I don't know, I've seen you peddle a lot of Fromunda on this here website
December 30th, 2018 at 4:43 PM ^
both teams will be looking for OCs.
December 30th, 2018 at 3:21 PM ^
We made need to all burn our best lambs and all of of our best crops from this summer at the alter in our backyards to make sure this happens.
You may also need to sacrifice your worst brother of you have more than one.
December 30th, 2018 at 3:21 PM ^
Probably looking for some new and innovative offensive schemes for us.
December 30th, 2018 at 3:29 PM ^
on the Lions sidelines?!
that has SNAFU written all over it...
December 30th, 2018 at 3:35 PM ^
It was a joke, which is less funny if I explain it:
The Lions suck
Pep looks to them for inspiration
Hence, Pep sucks worse than the Lions
Honestly, though, I think the Lions are probably about the right landing spot for Pep. He has shown absolutely nothing to warrant getting an HC gig at a lower level college program. He has shown out as an awful OC (or whatever he is) so a college HC would have to be insane to hire him to be their OC. He could probably land a shitty NFL job under the premise that college kids couldn't implement his awesome NFL schemes.
December 30th, 2018 at 4:14 PM ^
yeah, i know you were joking...i was mocking the Lions
December 30th, 2018 at 5:22 PM ^
Pep is a legit QB/WR coach. I could see him getting an NFL job in either of those positions. The OC/Passing Game Coordinator role doesn’t appear to be a good fit for us. Any play calling is a problem.
December 30th, 2018 at 3:56 PM ^
Thanks for that comment, you made me laugh
December 30th, 2018 at 3:22 PM ^
He gone
December 30th, 2018 at 3:39 PM ^
For some reason this made me laugh.
December 31st, 2018 at 9:04 PM ^
yes me too...laugh till I started crying at how bad I hope this is true...
December 30th, 2018 at 3:22 PM ^
Do we have to pay his buyout if he goes back to the nfl?
December 30th, 2018 at 3:23 PM ^
Better than paying him to stay.
December 30th, 2018 at 6:30 PM ^
If he left voluntarily and we agreed to let him go, we wouldn't have to pay him anything.
December 30th, 2018 at 3:22 PM ^
Can they keep him there please? Need to get the offense out of the 19th century.
December 30th, 2018 at 3:22 PM ^
Seems interesting seeing as they are in GB vs a home game.
December 30th, 2018 at 3:50 PM ^
And the fact that less than 24 hours ago he was in Atlanta
December 30th, 2018 at 3:22 PM ^
We need some good JuJu who’s willing to eat a lemon
December 30th, 2018 at 3:23 PM ^
One can only hope he’s gone.
December 30th, 2018 at 3:26 PM ^
I have my box of lemon heads. Haven't consumed yet. I'm willing to eat another box of we beat Ohio St next season.
December 30th, 2018 at 3:23 PM ^
Got a feeling Harbaugh is going to be doing some early spring cleaning...as he should. Get on OC who particularly understands clock management.
December 30th, 2018 at 3:27 PM ^
Clock management is on the Head Coach, and it is something that Harbaugh has sucked at his entire career. That was always his worst trait (and fan base gripe) at Stanford and SF.
December 30th, 2018 at 3:40 PM ^
Yeah, he unfortunately seems to be one of the (many) coaches who think that having a timeout in your pocket is more important than having time on the clock.
Clock management (and 2-minute drills in general) was one thing Lloyd Carr was really good at, and it led to a lot of comeback victories. I didn't fully realize this until after he was gone. RR, Hoke and Harbaugh have all struggled in this area.
December 30th, 2018 at 4:01 PM ^
Hoke I get. He's a complete idiot who never should have been a coach somewhere like Michigan. I'm sure game day was incredibly overwhelming to him. He also didn't wear a headset so nobody in the booth could say "Brady TO now!!!".
The fact that Harbaugh seems totally clueless about it is totally baffling.
December 30th, 2018 at 5:32 PM ^
I'll never forget Lloyd losing his shit trying to get one second back on the clock late in the 4th quarter off a kickoff vs Penn State in 05. He got it back, and we all know what happened with that 1 second at the end.
December 30th, 2018 at 5:42 PM ^
You're smokin' it. Llyod was okay at clock mgmt. but RR was elite. Go watch some of those RR v. ND games.
December 30th, 2018 at 7:20 PM ^
The ND games were fun, no doubt. But RR had some real clunkers in there: Toledo, Northwestern, Purdue, Iowa...
Lloyd had other issues as a gameday coach - he wasn't great at protecting a one-score lead - but if his team had the ball with a minute left down a score, you could count on him to manage the clock appropriately.
December 30th, 2018 at 3:46 PM ^
I don’t understand how any coach at any college level could be as bad as he displays. I understand not being a mad genius with clock management, but the vast majority of it is simple math and an attitude with a purpose.
December 30th, 2018 at 3:53 PM ^
I'm guessing his issue with using timeouts comes from fear of taking a sack (or any other play inbounds) that ends the half. He wants to keep a timeout handy in case of that. But if so, it's short-sighted thinking, because by calling timeouts earlier in the possession, you'll have more time to run that play in the first place.
I have no explanation for the general sluggishness of the offense in these situations though.
December 30th, 2018 at 5:04 PM ^
If you are having to take timeouts to avoid delay of game penalties after a change of possession, you’ve already failed.
December 30th, 2018 at 3:30 PM ^
I wish he would give up control of the offense. Harbaugh could be excellent as a CEO type coach. Delegate both sides of the ball to brilliant young minds, and simply be the face of the program who identifies coaching/player talent and recruits his ass off.
December 30th, 2018 at 10:35 PM ^
Yes. This is best case scenario. I think similar to what Dabo does at Clemson.
December 30th, 2018 at 3:30 PM ^
Pep isn’t the OC. He’s the passing game coordinator. He and Warriner feed Harbaugh plays and JH decides between their suggestions and a play he thinks of. This is the biggest issue with clock management. Hire an OC (or let Pep be OC) decreases clock issues significantly. Don’t know if offense as a whole improves but clock issues would.
December 30th, 2018 at 3:41 PM ^
Passing game coordinator under Harbaugh must get as much action as the Maytag repairman.
