Yes I think Campbell would be a massive upgrade over Harbaugh. ISU looks well coached, doesn't give up, motivated players and just seems like they get the most out of the players.
Harbaugh gets the least out of a wealth of resources every week it's pathetic to watch.
December 19th, 2020 at 2:52 PM ^
Beats losing by 38 at home to Wisconsin.
December 19th, 2020 at 3:03 PM ^
Yes. Please compare ISUs talent to OUs. Then compare UMs to Wiscys. Then compare ISU losing to OU to UM losing to Wiscy, then ask again.
December 19th, 2020 at 3:04 PM ^
This sure aged well for you
December 19th, 2020 at 3:11 PM ^
Watching this Iowa team with their 2 and 3 star talent playing their hearts out trying to win this in the 4th quarter makes me realize how traumatized we Michigan fans are with the absolute bottom of the barrel SHIT coaching we've seen in the last few years.
December 19th, 2020 at 3:15 PM ^
Over Jim? Yes. ISU passes the eye test of a team that is being coached well. Even if they seem to be taking their time in the last 8 minutes down 10 (now 3). UM hasn't looked well coached for a couple years in row. Plus all the valid points raised above.
But the real question should be, does Matt Campbell want Michigan?
December 19th, 2020 at 3:16 PM ^
What about the ISU down 24-7 to now 24-21 and still alive with 5 min left? Oh also Purdy has a couple really bad INT’s that have hurt them.
December 19th, 2020 at 3:16 PM ^
This post didn’t age well...
December 19th, 2020 at 3:19 PM ^
i will
December 19th, 2020 at 3:20 PM ^
Nice prediction there guy
December 19th, 2020 at 3:21 PM ^
You look like an idiot right now. And yes. If Harbaugh's teams were playing this OU team in any of the last 3 seasons they would probably lose by 30. Campbell has accomplished more in one year than Harbaugh ever has in 6 years at Michigan with a fraction of the talent. We're about as bad this year as Iowa State was when Cambell took over.
December 19th, 2020 at 3:24 PM ^
Perhaps the OP thought that every team folds like a cheap tent after going down more than a score like Harbaugh's Michigan does.
December 19th, 2020 at 3:25 PM ^
Don’t look now, but Iowa State isn’t going to lose by 20
December 19th, 2020 at 3:28 PM ^
Wow - your post is a humiliating joke!
December 19th, 2020 at 3:32 PM ^
Well that drive didn't inspire a lot of confidence in Campbell's coaching ability. Biggest drive of the season and the coaches couldn't get the play called in in time and the players couldn't get lined up correctly.
December 19th, 2020 at 3:50 PM ^
Yes the play came in slow. But, coaches didn’t throw 3 picks and have multiple starters out on OL who got beat repeatedly upfront. Those 2 false starts and lets just throw it up was the difference. I am a Campbell supporter, but I think we all can agree it’s nice to see a coach down 24-7 and give his team a shot to win with 2 min and the ball. Harbaugh fans, other than the PSU game last year where we fought hard in 2nd and Bell dropped the Td, when else did this team battle back in 2nd half against a solid team? I know we had a few comebacks (remember NW), but against weaker teams where we just came out flat. Usually we get down early and it’s over. You need to take better care of ball, but end of day when you have a shot to win against a top 10 team losing turnover battle 3-0 is best you can hope for.
December 20th, 2020 at 1:07 AM ^
Have you watched Harbaugh’s two minute offense the last 6 years? What the hell are you talking about? It was one play.
December 19th, 2020 at 3:32 PM ^
Are you an idiot, or just stupid?
December 19th, 2020 at 3:34 PM ^
impressive showing by ISU, despite the loss
December 19th, 2020 at 3:35 PM ^
Dang can't get a play in when driving for the win.
December 19th, 2020 at 3:35 PM ^
You idiots that want Tom Allen and Campbell would run Harbaugh out of town if he blew a championship with terrible management like ISU just did.
December 19th, 2020 at 3:39 PM ^
He’d have to get to a championship game first.
December 19th, 2020 at 7:04 PM ^
Seriously. I'd be happy with just making the championship game first. We can talk about bringing home hardware once we manage to even position ourselves to do so.
December 19th, 2020 at 3:40 PM ^
Harbaugh and Championship in the same sentence? ?
December 19th, 2020 at 3:41 PM ^
tough to know as Harbaugh has never been to a championship game at Michigan.
1T for 1st in the B1G East.
5 years 3rd place or worse.
December 19th, 2020 at 3:45 PM ^
Woah there slugger, we’d have to be in a position to mess one up first.
Second, no one is calling for Jim’s job over a close loss to a good team. There is a reaction when you lose to a crap MSU team at home and your coaching staff says they had an incomplete game plan.
December 20th, 2020 at 1:13 AM ^
You are the worst of kind of Michigan fan. We’d have to actually finish higher than 3rd in our division to even have a chance of blowing a conference championship.
December 19th, 2020 at 3:35 PM ^
Not fickle at all. That last series was not going to make Campbell highlight reel.
December 19th, 2020 at 3:36 PM ^
Seeing Matt Campbell lose his shit and his players having to hold him back....
I'd take that guy, even if he was named Harbaugh.
If you're gonna lose -- at least lose showing the fight with Fire & Brimstone.
Go Blue.
December 19th, 2020 at 3:37 PM ^
This thread aged well
December 19th, 2020 at 3:41 PM ^
Matt Campbell’s Iowa State team lost by six against a good team and played tough.
You were saying?
What I’d do to see a Michigan team that had the heart Iowa State has shown this year. Just to put his team into position – it’s Iowa State for crying out loud – for a Big 12 title is impressive.
December 19th, 2020 at 3:45 PM ^
They went 8 and 3 and lost to every good team they played while not winning a championship. Harbaugh has done that 5 times.
December 19th, 2020 at 3:50 PM ^
What part of this is Iowa State, does no one get? Is he the solution for Michigan? I don’t know, he establishes a winning culture and can upset good teams with less talent.
All I’m saying is Campbell has done a heck of a job at ISU. Also pretty sure he and his offensive coordinator haven’t admitted not having a game plan against a rival after an awful loss.
December 19th, 2020 at 3:54 PM ^
lost to every good team? they beat Texas and Oklahoma this year
This is the first championship ISU has played for since 1912. He's been the Big 12 coach of the year 3 times in 5 years.
December 19th, 2020 at 4:22 PM ^
Wrong. You know you can google their results right? They beat Texas and Oklahoma and lost by 3 to Oklahoma St and 6 to Oklahoma. I’m not saying he the answer here. I think he should be considered though because he has accomplished more at Iowa St.than Harbaugh has in college. That’s not a debate.
December 19th, 2020 at 11:30 PM ^
Farrrrt post. Lost to every good team? You're not even paying attention. It's okay, you'll get Jim back next year.
Where you at Avon...answer for that dumbass post.
December 19th, 2020 at 3:50 PM ^
I forgot I already negged this post. Someone else will have to do it for me
December 19th, 2020 at 3:51 PM ^
Uh yes.
December 19th, 2020 at 4:00 PM ^
The best coach in this game was not Campbell or Riley, it was Grinch. He'd be a nice upgrade over old Brownie.
December 19th, 2020 at 4:59 PM ^
Of course we want him. We need a coach that recruits well, develops players, schemes to put them in the best position to succeed, and makes correct -- and modern -- in-game coaching decisions. Aside from excellent offensive-side recruiting, we have none of this right now. And we are going into year 7 -- it's not gonna change if we maintain Harbaugh as HC.
So change is needed. Would Campbell be an improvement? Maybe -- but there is more than one option that might be an improvement. It just has to be figured out, and people are paid a lot of money to figure these things out. Once decided, we have to take the shot without worrying about "whoa, what if we're worse?" What's worse than losing to all of your rivals and beating f-ing Rutgers only because of a missed FG? Just about anything will be better. So I say go for it.
December 19th, 2020 at 5:20 PM ^
When Oklahoma beats ISU by 6 on a late pic on a potential game winning drive will people still want Matt Campbell?
FUCK YES!!!
December 19th, 2020 at 10:57 PM ^
When the 6th ranked team only loses by 6 to the 10th ranked team, that seems like a big win.
December 20th, 2020 at 5:54 PM ^
Yeah, far better than the results over the last 6 years.
December 19th, 2020 at 5:32 PM ^
You tell us, nice guess on the score.
Yes, people still want a coaching change, and your post was stupid when you posted, and looks just brilliant now.
Go ahead and tell us about the JH rebirth on the horizon with your next attempt.
December 19th, 2020 at 6:11 PM ^
Also couldn’t this be said of most coaches?
Most people here would have been like...yeah, that Nick Saban guy never won anything at MSU. I wouldn’t want him.
December 19th, 2020 at 6:24 PM ^
Dont want him even if he wins.
December 19th, 2020 at 7:09 PM ^
Embarrassing thread.
I'd be ecstatic if we lost to Oklahoma by 6 points. That would signify major, MAJOR progress beyond the shitshow we've currently got on our hands.
December 19th, 2020 at 7:22 PM ^
Hell no. I didn't want him before his loss to OK.
December 19th, 2020 at 7:23 PM ^
OP +.5 for unintended double entendre, 'fickel'
