100% behind him! Hope he never leaves! those who think we have a better option out there need to give that a 2nd thought, because there isn't one.
With all due respect, I score him a 6. We're 1-5 against rivals and no East division championships, let alone B1G championships or Playoff births. For potential I score him a 9 as he is relentless and has the right vision this program needs! This will be a critical year in assessing how well the program will move forward.
If I were a Michigan fan, I would still be hopeful that Harbag would be the guy to get the job done, but certainly disappointed that more hadn't happened quite yet.
I would think this Year 4 could be when the team breaks through...if not for that darn schedule. For Michigan to have as good a season as I would like (if I were a UM fan) it would require Michigan winning a road game of such quality that the program has not done in the past decade...and then would have to do it another 2-3 times this year for the season to be special.
...would make Year 4 frustrating and disappointing to still have another 3-4 loss team, but man those road games are going to make it very difficult to win the division.
I'm generally a patient guy, thus another 3-4 loss season (considering the road games) would still give me hope for a good Year 5. But golly, the clock has got to start ticking on Harbag at some point if those big wins don't start coming soon.
Just my $0.02.
Didn't we just have this exact same discussion like, a week ago or so?
I don't think I'm anywhere with Jim Harbaugh. I doubt he knows I exist.
Jim Harbaugh is good with me though. Glad he's coach.
But goddamn I want to see this team run over Sparty & that other school like they did Rutgers a couple years back. Don't leave it even near where the refs or a weird bounce can affect the outcome. Make it known from the first snap that one team will get the shit kicked out of it up & down the field, and that team is not in a winged helmet.
