Great choice! I hope they'll be very happy with Manny. I don't think they could have made a better selection (for us).

Sorry for the old guyness, fellas. I don't believe I can edit that awful OP
December 12th, 2018 at 4:19 PM ^
Hey man at least you tried to give us a link (or whatever the hell that was). You’ve really raised the bar for the next OP.
December 12th, 2018 at 8:37 PM ^
Also, you put the information in the title, so the body of post didn’t matter so much. Also, also, I will praise the messenger because this is just about the best news ever.

Good. Hopefully now the recruiting tactic against Michigan of "Harbaugh to the NFL and Brown is going elsewhere" will die out for the year.
December 12th, 2018 at 9:26 PM ^
For the year maybe, but it'll always be "Harbaugh is going to the NFL soon" and now we can add "Don Brown is looking for a HC gig soon." These will always be the low hanging negative recruiting pitches, along with can't beat OSU, such is life.
December 12th, 2018 at 3:46 PM ^
Good thing! Don Brown has been the saving grace of this program for the last three years.
December 12th, 2018 at 4:17 PM ^
Except for that one Saturday a few weeks ago.
I think that's the thing that pisses me off the most about that game. It undid everything I thought I knew about our team (I.e. the defense getting shellacked).
December 12th, 2018 at 6:03 PM ^
When is a time to let that go? Never? I am just asking. Don Brown wasn't out there when Brandon Watson got burnt like a red headed step child on those crossing routes. He had almost zero speed on those. Would you prefer he go with someone that doesn't know the entire defense? I'm sure it would have ended up the same. Michigan Fans.. knew that going into the game, crossing routes were the weakness. OSU... simply... killed Michigan with it. Lesser opponents couldn't manage it. But Hakins can sling it.. And did. Lay off of Coach Brown a little bit. Unless you have a plan that he didn't think of. Then you should probably E-Mail him about it. I'm sure that he'd reply..
December 12th, 2018 at 10:10 PM ^
Never.
December 13th, 2018 at 11:20 AM ^
“Red headed step child”? Please explain.
December 12th, 2018 at 3:49 PM ^
Perfecto, felicidades Manny!
December 12th, 2018 at 3:49 PM ^
Do whatever it takes to keep coach Don Brown here....
December 12th, 2018 at 4:04 PM ^
Thank god.
If so, then let's hope Michigan quickly puts this out with a clear statement that, as much as possible, settles the minds of new recruits.
Best would be if the news was wrong, that he wasn't seeking the job.
December 12th, 2018 at 3:55 PM ^
One hurdle jumped. Still give the sheriff an extension... Now!
December 12th, 2018 at 3:56 PM ^
What in the actual fuck is that code?
December 12th, 2018 at 3:57 PM ^
THAT is someone like me who thinks they can navigate the new and improved MGoBlog in the same way that the previous version was navigated. I.T. is not our strong suit.
December 12th, 2018 at 3:58 PM ^
I know. I tried turning my computer on and off, but it didn't fix it.
December 12th, 2018 at 8:46 PM ^
Okay, this made me laugh. But seriously - you don't need to write any code. The third icon from the left is a chain link (B = bold; I = Italics; chain link = URL link). Type whatever you want to say, then highlight what you want to link. When highlighted, click the chain icon and paste in the URL.
No code needed...
December 12th, 2018 at 4:08 PM ^
It's HTML. You may have heard of it.

December 12th, 2018 at 3:56 PM ^
Good for us, but they will lose Diaz as soon as Richt leaves anyway.
December 12th, 2018 at 3:58 PM ^
This is the best news I've heard in a while.
December 12th, 2018 at 4:02 PM ^
Good news. We keep Donny Ballgame!
December 12th, 2018 at 4:04 PM ^
Don Brown will exact vengeance on OSU.
December 12th, 2018 at 4:09 PM ^
The good news: He's staying.
The bad news: He was looking.
Onward
GO BLUE
December 12th, 2018 at 4:13 PM ^
Being reported that he has taken the job.
December 12th, 2018 at 4:29 PM ^
Brown will be considered for better jobs coming off a CFP and Ohio State victory.
December 12th, 2018 at 5:23 PM ^
Well then I guess we're ok for now. (Sigh)
December 12th, 2018 at 6:04 PM ^
Good news!
December 12th, 2018 at 11:49 PM ^
Thank you Jesus, is right!! Thanks for posting. I may be able to sleep tonight.
I have confidence that Brown will have another game on his mind this coming year, the way he did PSU this past year. Ready to 'right the ship' in full next fall.
December 13th, 2018 at 3:07 PM ^
Excellent news. Happy for Temple for getting a great coach, but most importantly, happy that Don Brown is staying put.
