My 13 year old sister and I are having a conversation and she asks ''So have they fired Brady Hoke yet?'' I say no, and she says ''What are they waiting for?''
I just laughed.

Might have the last laugh here. I personally think he was saving up to fire Hoke as he'd fired coaches of other varsity sports for far less. However when all the vitriol started, he was the guy who said "whatever" and volunteered to fall on his sword because he knew it was an easy button Schlissel would instantly press, however thereby taking out that nest egg for himself. Someone else has to now come up with the money to buy the currrent staff's contracts out, and then buy a new coaching staff away from their current contract with wherever they are employed. It could theoretically be done with a budget in mind, forcing a new HC to keep existing coordinators but you all can probably see the the problems therein.
I personally don't get all the joyousness with the possibility Hoke could be fired. One way to look at it is he did the hard work of rebuilding the OL and the defensive front 7 to a sense of decency with not very much to start with, armed with several season ending injuries to key players Morgan, Peppers and Green and the absence of Ty Isaac. If I were a potential replacement I'd be chomping at the bit. You graduate 3 seniors this year, 2 years of probable success are in-hand before the actual work of stabilization begins again in earnest, just built upon the simple percentage of upperclassmen in the program.
The Wins and Losses story of Hoke is simple enough, my 7 year old son could understand the numbers and see the trends. But just the fact that every writer scratching for a story for the last 14 weeks decided to pile on about the incredibly dire situation has really done the most vast injustice to Michigan. I get that the media has newfound powers in he modern era but i will say i don't believe it is all for the good.
It will be interesting to see how this all plays out. Nebraska, Florida, Auburn, and aTm are already rolling the dice this year. Not every single one of those is going to meet with guaranteed success.....

So spare us the bullshit that Hoke has been a failure.
The football team has gotten worse each year under the tenure of Brady Hoke, the head football coach. He's a failure.
