Submitted by 814 East U on

FLorida dismissed Will M. So our turn now right?

Meanwhile in college RT @Andy_Staples: http://SI.com  has learned that Will Muschamp has been dismissed at Florida. Story upcoming.

[EDIT]: Will may have stepped down (Brandon-style). Regardless, he will not be coaching Florida next season.

Well, considering our new temporary AD has exactly as much experience being an AD as the last one did when he was hired, your anxiety is certainly not misplaced.

But I would be very, very surprised if our temporary AD hasn't already put feelers out for a coach.

Moreover, I will be pleasantly surprised if a new experienced AD is hired at all. This program is in misery partly because the last two coaching hires were made by amateur ADs with no previous experience hiring a coach.

Other schools with more successful recent programs have real-deal ADs.

Unfortunately, that is the Michigan difference.

I honestly don't think this affects our coaching search at all.

The guys this board would love to see hired aren't going to Florida for a variety of reasons.

And move on. We are watching a dam leak and doing absolutely nothing to stop it-plain and simple, Michigan has been to afraid to get its hands dirty. Fire the loser and try again. At least Florida is trying again. We get to watch an all-star clapper for two more games. So, yeah, I'd be happy to be keeping up with the Floridas and not have an administration afraid to hurt feelings.

Whatever chance we had at getting Mullen has likely gone out the window. Not sure that he would've come here anyway, though. We might have to start looking elsewhere, like Marshall's coach or something.

But that will never happen here. In fact I give Hoke a 30 percent of getting a new contract if he finishes 1-1 in his last two games. If Hoke goes 2-0, he will be a shoe in at 70 percent chance of a new contract! This has me worried. But at least OSU has something to play for!

Hiring a coach (Mullen) based an a really good season its plain stupid. I am pretty sure Florida will not even approach him and to be honest I hope we dont either. The key to getting a great coach is that the AD nees to step out of the box and hire "that" one coach who shows good signs for the future no matter where he is currently coaching. Msu got MD from Cincy and florida got Meyers from Utah at that time..or even when we got Bo who was never heard of..osu took Tressel from Youngstown..most people dont even know where Youngstown is.
Michigan needs to look really hard and make smart decisions, we need a guy who is hungry to win and prove himself, we dont need to get a guy who wins because his paycheck says so. Also as most of us agree we also dont need the michigan man bullshit again.
There are a lot of good coordinaters who show head coach like skills and there are plenty of Div 2 coaches whomwould love to get a chance and work their ass off to prove they belong with the big boys, we just need "that" one coach. With the resources and recruiting we get it should not be hard to have a winning program again as long as the coach is smart and creative.

You abviously dont get my point..what i was trying to say was that some of the coaches who came from the shadows have showed to be some of the greatest CFB coaches..my point was not about LSU but about how Saban came up the ranks. He was just another coach at msu who showed a great future and got snatched by smart ADs of SEC and look at him now

And I don't think you got my point. Lsu was not a top tier job Before Saban got there. He made it into a top tier job. Michigan is not positioned similarly to whiff on the next coaching hire as LSU was when they hired Saban. If LSU had whiffed on Saban, then it wouldn't have been the end of the world for them - not our situation here.
