2 years 20 weeks ago	I'll Grant You This	For three years I've been against this hire, and now want RR GONE four seconds after he wins the bowl game. Bring Harbaugh in, now. Don't screw this up. I don't know, though, if it's a trainwreck thing--but I WOULD be oddly excited if RR is brought back to see what next year's team's progression would be. I also think there are several teams that will be down: Iowa, Wisconsin, and YES OSU as well. I mean, IF there is progress even more, and if it is FINALLY going to be that exponential progress that RR supoorters have been talking about for three years--well, next year could very well be somewhat watchable and more! But that is ONLY if Harbaugh inexplicably wants to coach in the pro ranks and won't come home.
2 years 20 weeks ago	Let Me Take a Stab	This is a gret post! The "progress" under RR is fool's gold. All of it has come on offense. And the offense was made to look poor against the better teams in the Big Ten. The "progress", besides average yards and points (which don't translate to victories), is being measured by exactly two games: Illinois and Purdue. And the Illinois game was won by the backup quarterback. BARELY. Purdue? Well, if in year three you struggle to beat a depleted Purdue team--you can't use that to measure progress. Michigan should always be measured against the best teams it plays. And in those games, Michigan was largely embarrassed. Harbaugh represents not a "return to glory" but a man seasoned by being connected to Michigan and Bo, going out on his own and succeeding, being a coach's son, and IMO, being a guy who seems to have a transcendant personality which COULD elevate him to a status reserved for those who are on planesabove average coaches like Rodriguez. It's philosophical. Prodigal son returns; energizes a spiritually and emotionally dead program; recruits and players feel his passion, develop that old burning desire for Big state U; Michigan returns to prominence in its home state; People immediately take notice; laughter at present situation stops. You can argue Rodriguez hasn't gotten a fair shake. Too bad. Sometimes life ain't fair. Rodriguez needs to be made to answer for his results.
2 years 20 weeks ago	Good Thing	D-Rod burned Devin Gardner's redshirt to teach tate a lesson.
2 years 20 weeks ago	Do You	Still think "Banhammer" is cool? How about digital watches? Dork.
2 years 20 weeks ago	Why	Do you guys who think you're so freaking cool as to point out how stupid a thread is POST ON IT?
2 years 20 weeks ago	Absolutely	And it shouldn't be a close call. Rodriguez needs to be canned. I hope it happens.
2 years 20 weeks ago	Jack Campbell	Is he another know-nothing media douchehead we're supposed to hate? man, the list is getting loger by the minute.
2 years 20 weeks ago	No Topic	Can be considered as fully discussed until the Scouties post at least five threads here and five threads there on it. And that's just on day one.
2 years 20 weeks ago	WTF	Not supposed to talk about points. Hey, if Maryland is that desperate, it's not the OP's fault.
2 years 20 weeks ago	The Hills Are Alive	With the sound of music to my ears that Brian is 65-35 Harbaugh...YAY! Three years ago we should have hired Miles. Instead...major embarrassment. I PRAYYYYYY to GAWD UM can't screw this up a second time. The technicolor dreamcoat is ready, Jim. Come home. It's time. We NEED you. There can be no greater triumph than restoring YOUR Michigan to its former greatness after the hatchet job done on it the last three years. And if Denard Robinson chooses to transfer? Onto the trash heap with him--and the rest of the guys who just don't love Michigan enough. AMIRIGHT? I mean, we only talk about players who want to play for MICHIGAN, AMIRIGHT?
2 years 20 weeks ago	I Love it	A UM BONER contest between the OP (one of his degrees) and his "buddy" (stop writing checks for his suite). So, it's about you and your buddy, not about supporting Michigan? I'm sure Michigan will do just fine after you mail back your imagined degree, and your buddy will stay out of jail for writing rubber checks, too. Win all the way around!
2 years 20 weeks ago	You	Might want to stab things, but Blog owners and premium message board drama queen owners LOVE this stuff.
2 years 20 weeks ago	Agreed	And I don't understand why people feel the need to go on character assassination bingeing when Harbaugh's name comes up (or anyone else's for that matter). Harbaugh is a pure D winner. Rodriguez, so far at michigan, is a pure D flop.
2 years 20 weeks ago	Well, As We Say Here	NEXT! WE only talk about players who play for Michigan. We're in on so many EFFING great recruits, this won't hurt! Once this thing gets rolling, the recruits will just pour in! Rich Rod is SUCH a great recruiter! He'll just go out and get another one! The future is so bright, I need sunglasses! We'll be fine!
2 years 20 weeks ago	Hey	Isn't iowa coached by another guy UM fans on blogs hate and think is an idiot?   I wonder what it's like to be a fan of teams that win Sigh.
2 years 20 weeks ago	Yup	I agree. We keep on saying, "Next," or "I only talk about..." and our defense keeps getting worse.
2 years 20 weeks ago	Yes, But	That doesn't fit the blame-game/excuse machine that is the Army of Rich Rodriguez supporters.
2 years 20 weeks ago	After Reading This Post	I understand why you wear a helmet all the time.
