At this point RR was all ready run out of town, we new it and the players new it. Kind of hard to play for someone when they know he is gone and your future is uncertain.
I supported him to the end, and the way you MI Men treated him was digusting, fucking arogant pricks.
This is comming from a MI fan since I was 6 years old watching Jamie Morris run people over! But what happend to RR and eveything now has given me such a sour taste of M, and my Wife just graduated from there with her BSN.
This shows you have no clue what your talking about, there was no way a Spread Coach was keeping Mallet, no matter what he said!
Also, let's go back to 2008 for a minute - with the backup QBs being Threatadin, RR's first order of business should have been keeping Ryan Mallett on the team. If that meant delaying the implimentation of his stread offense or adjusting that offense to fir his talent, he should have done that. And, even worse, once Mallett left, what rational person would have tried to run the option offense with Threatadin at QB??
I agree whole heartley with your OP. RR did not stand a chance since he arrived, because this University is nothing more than a bunch of Wine Sipping Cheese Nibblers that have to have it their way!
Makes me sick to be a MI fan the way the last 3 years have gone!
The only other option I see is he plans on retaining RR and is keeping everyone in the dark right now to keep the alumni/boosters/ex-players at bay so they think there is a chance that RR is gone.
And I hate to beat a dead Horse, but I truly believe that DB has made the decision all ready and has fired RR and JH is all ready hired.
As much as I did not want to talk about this because there is no proof, it seems it is all falling in line now.
1-Listen to RR Pre OSU press conference, right in the beginning he mentions something along the lines of it being his last Press conference...of the season, but the way he says it there seemed to be a underline tone to it, he seemed extremely upset when he said it.
2-As stated in other post, no school hires a new coach in Jan, unless something has happened past the end of the season and it has nothing to do with win/loss.
3-Why would he be risking recruits to de-commit?
I think JH must all ready have been hired, this can be the only reason why DB has said he will wait until the season is over, which means after Stanford plays in their Bowl game. I am starting to believe now that this deal has been done for quite some time now and JH asked it to not be announced until after his Bowl game.
I realy did not want to believe this and get into the hipe of it without any proof, but nothing else makes sense now except JH will be our Coach in 2011, and I sure hope I am wrong!
"I think if DB can get JH then RR is gone regardless of the outcome Saturday. If Harbaugh won't come, RR just may come back"
LMFAO!!! Like you know what the fuck DB is thinking! All you JH ass clowns just write what you fucking read from the newspapers and hear on Sports radio! No where from inside MI has anyone said JH is being looked at, or any other coach for that matter!
Until the time, if it happens (which I hope it does not) shut the fuck up about JH or any other coach that the media brings up, because they also have no fucking clue!
Fuck!!! Been a long time reader of this blog! But enough is enough! Your post has finally made me make a account so I can voice my frustration with so called "fans" like you!
If you can honestly not see how this team has progressed since 2008, you sir are blind and all you remind me of is the old school, wine sipping, cheese nibbler, stuck up "we are MI and we should always win!"
RR was handed a pile of shit in 2008, it did not take a football genius to see this! 2009 was not much better but at least in 2009 you could start to see what his vision was. Now it is 2010 and we are in the top 15 of offensive stats in the nation, with a offensive team that will be coming back for 2 more years!
The defense has been bad for years, not just the RR era. Do we need a new DC, probably. I honestly do not think much more could be done with this year’s D regardless who the DC is, no talent from the Carr recruiting era, combined with attrition, injuries, and youth is nothing more than a recipe for disaster, that no DC in the nation would want on their plate!
But the thing that makes me sick, is your tone. You sound like so many other people I know and blame RR for all this and your only reason is "we are MI". It's that stuck up we are better than any school higher then mighty attitude why MI fans are considered some of the worst, because of the arrogance that pores from them, makes me want to puke!
Fuck, I am the minority routing for this team and RR within my circle of people, who are all MI fans, but the difference is I see through the "we are MI" bullshit!

2010, ?-? with a bowl
If you can't see improvement, then you are a wine sipping, cheese nibbler "we are MI" fans, and as far as I am concerned your no fan to me!

Windows For Workgroups, one step higher than DOS.
How many times did coaches step into a program that was loaded with talent and go far, Sieben for example. Carr did it with Mouler recruits.
it was really about both.
I don't think OSU fans would agree, compared to their record against SEC teams in the past.
Just saying...
I am just excited about this game and have a good feeling, which is usely right.
Healthy team (some what) and a glimpse of how special we will be in 2011 under RR!
Look how he has handled himself the last 3 years!
Other Coaches dogging him-he says nothing, holds his head high!
Ex-Players/Alumni dogging him-He says nothing, holds his head high!
Look at this team, have you ever seen a team that is all about TEAM!!! I know I have not in my 30 years of living and breathing MI football.
RR is class and is truely a MI man, and Bo would be proud. Lets just hope others that are making the calls are MI men also!

I love this coach and love this team!
None of this adds up!

But we did get blown out by USC, it was not even a game!
we only lost to the only 2 ranked teams we played that year.
Need I remind you of Carr's last couple of years?
