happy to see Hoke landing a position coach job somewhere. That’s honestly his ceiling

 If it's the same guy doing this all the time, meaning that he's on his computer or phone and waiting to pounce to be the first to comment on a thread then that's his pathological problem.  Why do you feel the need to police threads unless someone posts something highly offensive?  Better that he wastes his time getting his jollies by posting on the blog than for him to be driving around in a van looking for victims.

He was mostly working with RR's recruits and Mattison has mostly worked with Hoke's. There's no question who recruited those positions better.

Hoke was only coaching DTs, but having HC duties put him at a disadvantage compared to Mattison. When Hoke was just our DL coach, those lines were very good.

Glad to hear it.  If you ever met the man and didn't like him, you have no heart.  A truly good guy and a part of the Michigan family. Head coach here was a bad idea and absolutely did not work out, but I wish nothing but good things for him and his family.  Godspeed.

Team physician and neurologist that was on the sideline stated that concussion protocol was followed.  He stood by the process that deterrmined that Morris did not have a consussion.  At one point, you can see Morris wave off assistance. If you watch the game tape you can see that the medical staff/trainers are talking to Morris before he goes back onto the field.

The hospital staff stated that they determined that Morris had a slight concussion.  I suspect that multiple players play each week with slight concussions.  I don't think the follow-up evaluation yielding a rating one notch higher on the scale is particularly damning.

The idea that Michigan doesn't or didn't follow proper concussion protocols is, in my opionion, without substance.

I saw a kid get drilled on the chin then almost collapse before being told to throw another pass on the very next play? if those doctors did what you say they did, they did not do it very thoroughly or well and are damn fortunate Morris didn't get more seriously hurt... see 2:40 here

Good to see. Hopefully he's got himself a job now for a while instead of jumping from sinking college team to sinking college team. He can coach a good d-line, and never really got a chance at his last two stops.
