it's a post. There is no link, no opinion, no nothing. At least give us a few sentences about the topic.  I know it's news, but you need to put some thought into starting a new thread on this site. Ya dig?

Next.

Not that I don't desparately want JH.  But, enough of the drama.  He is a great coach.  There are other very good coaches out there who will not bolt for the NFL in 3-5 years.

Personally (I know that Brian will puke), I am pulling for Hoke.  He wants the job above all others.  It would be his dream job.  To me, that counts for a lot, as his love of Michigan might prove infectious.

If nothing else, this gives DB the ammunition to say "look, we tried*, he went somewhere else, we have to focus our efforts on finding the next great coach of Michigan who isn't JH."  He also prepared us for this at the press conference.

It's all good - I hope we can help Patterson across that bridge he was talking about.

*assuming he tried

Are you fucking crazy?  The guy in seat 17, row 68 probably wants the job pretty badly, too.  He's a fat fucking slob that never went to Michigan and was only able to score season tickets because of the defection of the blue hairs during the RR era, but, hey, his love of Michigan might prove infectious.  Why don't we hire him?  Who gives a shit about his ability to recruit or his ability to coach?  He L-O-V-E-S Michigan!  I once saw him swear off beer for a whole year on the condition that Michigan come from behind and beat Wisconsin in the 500th game at the Big House in 2008.  And guess what?  Michigan came back and won!  I mean, is this guy perfect or what?  He could just swear off different things each game (hot dogs, internet porn, corn dogs, pay-per-view porn, etc.) and Michigan would never lose!

Damn you Dave Brandon!!!!1!

I've been tugging Jim Harbaugh's dong for the past three months, and now he isn't going to come here to be our coach. Instead of being mad at myself for screaming about something that probably wasn't going to happen, I'm going to be unreasonably mad at you. You know, just because I'm never wrong!!!!1!!!!. YOU REALLY FUCKED THIS UP BRANDON!!!!!!111!!!!q11!

Signed, 

Every loudmouth in the Michigan fanbase

Why root for him now? He's clearly proven he was all about his own glory rather than becoming part of something greater than himself. I was rooting for him but he turned me against him in about 36 hours. There are tons of crap NFL jobs that come open every year. Michigan is probably (hopefully) a once in a lifetime opportunity for him, and he turned us down and embarrassed us in the process. If it was about his wife hating cold weather...I guess I could sympathize with that. It's probably for the best, since he would've dragged us through this every year or two until he fulfilled his NFL dream.

When Jim harbaugh is fired in three years because the 'niners still suck, then we'll all have our revenge!

(Except it is looking more and more like we're still going to be hurting three years from now as well ...)
