Seriously Jim, just resign.
November 14th, 2020 at 8:47 PM ^
At this point, doesn't he have to for everyone involved?
November 14th, 2020 at 9:02 PM ^
If he doesn’t then he’ll be exhibiting symptoms of narcissism where he can’t admit defeat.
November 14th, 2020 at 8:48 PM ^
He won't because "they're close" according to his stupid ass
November 14th, 2020 at 9:01 PM ^
Maybe he meant close to getting a first down. Or stop on defense.
November 14th, 2020 at 8:48 PM ^
I remember when he was hired, I thought we were set for a long time because so many of his assistants were head coach material. He would have a head coach in waiting.
LOL
November 14th, 2020 at 8:59 PM ^
Alabama has the Saban coaching tree. Michigan has the Harbaugh coaching twig.
November 14th, 2020 at 9:02 PM ^
Michigan has the dead patch of lawn where the grubs have taken over.
November 14th, 2020 at 9:25 PM ^
And where the moles are feasting on those grubs.
November 14th, 2020 at 9:47 PM ^
Michigan has the patch of tall fescue that we keep spraying with lawn weed killer, wondering why it isn't working.
Only real lawn nuts will get it.
November 14th, 2020 at 9:22 PM ^
I’m 44 and have rooted for a Michigan since 3rd grade at Johnson Elementary in Milford, MI and this is the worst Michigan team I have ever seen.
Seriously, for those saying this team has talent...where? What am I missing? What do you see that we can’t?
November 14th, 2020 at 9:27 PM ^
1/2 the starters left or are out for a variety of reasons from the ? of season, covid, draft, transfer, or just JH.
November 14th, 2020 at 9:32 PM ^
There's talent on this team dude. They're just very poorly coached. Blake Corum, Giles Jackson, Ronnie Bell, Dax....I could go on. The defensive scheme has been figured out by everyone, and the O line is thin, but coaching is far and away the biggest problem
November 14th, 2020 at 10:33 PM ^
This isn’t a talentless bunch. They play like a team who is not prepared and is aware enough to know it. Little enthusiasm, and less execution. Sad stuff to be sure.
November 15th, 2020 at 10:23 AM ^
No it’s all about the talent. Recruiting rankings are not the end all be all for identifying talent.But when you go class after class without top 100 talent it’s bound to catch up with you in a big thud. What we witnessed yesterday in the Big House was that big thud. I’ve seen this coming for a couple of years now. It’s been overlooked because of the 9,10&11 win seasons giving false hope. Brady Hoke pulled it off in his first year(giving the faithful a false sense of that the program was back)running Denard Robinson into the ground to beat TOSU and a bowl win over a overrated VaTech team.
I know it must have been painfully obvious to UM fans yesterday that Wisconsin looked like the more talented team by a mile. Looked like UM was playing the 85 bears yesterday. That’s how much better Wisconsin looked by the 4th qtr as their running game was reeling off 10 yard gains on nearly every down.That’s what UM used to do to everyone in the BIG except OSU in the 2nd half of games after UM has gassed the opposing defenses.
Answer one question, does that team win 12 games without DRob? Not a chance in hell imo. He’ll probably get one more year but if the recruiting doesn’t improve drastically now he’s done after another beat down by TOSU. I doubt Ryan Day calls off the dogs as they will need to impress the committee in every game because of how bad most BIG teams are.
November 14th, 2020 at 11:22 PM ^
I was a Johnson Jaguar after I moved to Milford in 5th grade. I actually got to help the lunch staff sweep the floor and wheel out the trash. This experience has given me the expertise to verify for you that this team is indeed hot garbage.
November 14th, 2020 at 9:30 PM ^
Me too, man. Life has a way of biting you in the ass sometimes
November 14th, 2020 at 9:25 PM ^
Mel Tucker in the corner like Jon Lovitz.
November 14th, 2020 at 8:49 PM ^
Wow, it looks like practice out there. Dudes just waiting for it to be over. Maybe they want a new coach too.....
November 14th, 2020 at 8:49 PM ^
Hey when did Rutgers steal our unis and put Harbaugh out there?
November 14th, 2020 at 8:51 PM ^
Need him to be like Bump Elliot and accept his fate.
November 14th, 2020 at 8:57 PM ^
Bump was loved by his players. Jimmy, not so much.
November 14th, 2020 at 9:10 PM ^
Being loved or not loved by his players doesn’t change what he should do.
November 14th, 2020 at 8:56 PM ^
Harbaugh is dealing with a major health issue. Believe me or not, but it’s true and may come out relatively soon.
November 14th, 2020 at 9:02 PM ^
If in fact true I hope he gets well. If this results in an Urban walk away. I’d prefer that.
November 14th, 2020 at 9:02 PM ^
That would really be unfortunate and if true he should have resigned to take care of himself.
November 14th, 2020 at 9:03 PM ^
Is it "we-suck-itis"?
November 14th, 2020 at 9:28 PM ^
Yes. Medically speaking, his "we-suck" is inflamed.
November 14th, 2020 at 9:11 PM ^
If that's true, and Warde knows about it, it's unacceptable for him to not have taken a leave of absence.
He's not doing anyone any favors by coaching at 50%.
November 14th, 2020 at 9:12 PM ^
Ok.....care to elaborate?
November 14th, 2020 at 9:33 PM ^
He did have A Fib when he first got here but he got the nerves burned in the upper chamber and that solved his A Fib. However, I heard he did need a pace maker after the 2017 season, which may have explained his calmer dementor. But, no, nothing serious that can keep him from coaching. Though he may be on the verge of a nervous breakdown.
November 14th, 2020 at 9:13 PM ^
Has he not heard of taking a leave of absence, like Jerry Kill?
November 14th, 2020 at 9:19 PM ^
that would suck if true; no one wishes ill on Harbaugh the person
That said, HC's defer a lot to their assistants like Jerry Kill did...
Harbaugh should have taken a leave of absence until his health issue was worked out.
November 14th, 2020 at 9:25 PM ^
Source or GTFO
November 14th, 2020 at 9:36 PM ^
Calling bullshit on making excuses.
If so, no one wishes him ill.
But regardless, he no one wants him in the head coach's office.
November 14th, 2020 at 9:37 PM ^
Seems irresponsible to post. But hey man kudos to you for maybe kinda sorta breaking a story.
November 14th, 2020 at 9:57 PM ^
If this is true I would hope that Jim would man up, disclose his issue as the reason for the poor on-field product, and then resign.
I would wish him well with his health challenge and not have any hard feeling about the situation.
If things continue to drag on like this, that's a totally different story.
November 14th, 2020 at 10:07 PM ^
I think that goes for the whole fan base. I'm really fucking sick though of this program acting like it's a branch of the FBI. The secrecy of every detail is absurd. A little information would go a long way towards calming the fan base
November 14th, 2020 at 8:56 PM ^
There really is nothing else left to say.
November 14th, 2020 at 8:57 PM ^
I remember thinking to myself “okay if we fire him who are we going to get that’s any better?”
Honestly, RichRod would be a better option at this point, and I’m not even kidding. At least by year three his offenses were fun to watch.
November 14th, 2020 at 9:03 PM ^
There are a lot of coaches that can get Michigan to an 8-4 or 9-3 kind of season. This program is a long way a way from that point right now. There's a long list of people that could do better at this point.
November 14th, 2020 at 9:12 PM ^
Yup, find someone who wants to compete and win rather than rape the school for $.
November 14th, 2020 at 9:18 PM ^
No, they weren't.
November 14th, 2020 at 9:25 PM ^
Denard Robinson would like a word with you.
November 14th, 2020 at 8:59 PM ^
Why does Harbaugh not react to anything??? Good or bad??
November 14th, 2020 at 9:02 PM ^
Because he doesn't care, he makes $9 million a year. Sorry, this may hurt some people's feeling but Harbaugh ruined Michigan football.
November 14th, 2020 at 9:57 PM ^
I’m far from a JH apologist but he did not “ruin Michigan football”. Michigan football ruined itself with its arrogant insistence that it had to win “their way”.
November 14th, 2020 at 9:03 PM ^
November 14th, 2020 at 9:05 PM ^
He cares about that paycheck.
November 14th, 2020 at 9:06 PM ^
4 and 1. Wisconsin calls timeout. We come out with the exact same formation. FUCK YOU JIM
