Best of luck to a good guy who didn't cut it as our coach.
December 2nd, 2014 at 3:39 PM ^
Should say POS BANG in the title.

Just told my wife the news. Her response? "Hm. Oh darn. I was hoping they would keep him. He seemed like a nice guy."

evenyoubrutus has just fired his wife.
December 2nd, 2014 at 3:59 PM ^
Your wife is a Sparty?
December 2nd, 2014 at 3:07 PM ^
But from my uninformed, barely lucid, standpoint, this had to be done.
December 2nd, 2014 at 3:08 PM ^
But but but but, who's going to be the next coach?????
*PANIC*
December 2nd, 2014 at 3:08 PM ^
and now we wait for the internet to break
December 2nd, 2014 at 4:01 PM ^
I wonder if he clapped when he got the news

this year stunk so hard
looking forward to something new
December 2nd, 2014 at 3:09 PM ^
Good luck, buddy. You deserve all the best. Hope you get it.
December 2nd, 2014 at 3:12 PM ^
Let me say I am impressed this stuff didnt leak for 3 hrs. That's atypical for UM. Hat tip to Hackett.

My only hope is someone starts a thread to start a conversation on that subject....
December 2nd, 2014 at 3:12 PM ^
Here's looking at you, Brady.
We'll always have 2011.

Best of luck to the guy... He was dedicated to what he was doing here... He loved the university, and he loved his players. However, we were going in the opposite direction. I harbor no ill feelings about him and the hire because Hoke was the guy to reunite the fanbase. At the end of the day, we need a guy who can win more than a Michigan man. His tenure will be viewed more as a learning experience than anything else.

Good guy. Bad coach. Hopefully it's Harbaugh or Miles' that will be turning the program around.
December 2nd, 2014 at 3:14 PM ^
You had you dream job. Things didn't work out. I'm sorry for your loss and what a terrible ordeal this must be for you, coach Hoke. Good luck in all your future endeavors.
December 2nd, 2014 at 3:18 PM ^
You got it right.......there is no need to pile on the guy now.
But I must admit that I was wrong........I really thought that he would work out a graceful resignation. Did that bullheaded personality trait raise its ugly head once again?

Batter up!

Goodbye Mr. Hoke.

If he goes anywhere it will be to a MAC school. I think he'd be a good candidate for the CMU job.
December 2nd, 2014 at 3:56 PM ^
I go to Ferris, and we need Coach Annese to stay here.
December 2nd, 2014 at 3:16 PM ^
Goodbye Mr. Hoke.
December 2nd, 2014 at 3:17 PM ^
A very good man. Tough day.
December 2nd, 2014 at 3:17 PM ^
It didn't work here, but hopefully you can land on your feet as either a head coach at a mid major program or an assistant coach at a Power 5 conference school. Thank you for your years of service here!

What happened to cause this? I have been away from the board for a few weeks.

But I feel bad for both Coach Hoke and for Michigan. This is not a day to celebrate IMO. But, at least the program can start to move forward with no more uncertainty about Hoke's status. I'm very grateful for all the effort he put into the program, his class, his great recruiting, and love of Michigan. Just like RR, I harbor zero ill will toward him and I wish him and his family all the best in the future. This was just a business decision for U-M and they made the right one.

I bet he'll be coach of the year somewhere in the next 4 years.
December 2nd, 2014 at 3:22 PM ^
Awesome guy, just not a good coach. Good luck Coach Hoke.

Thanks for the Sugar Bowl win! And for at least beating tOSU and sparty once.
god that's depressing
December 2nd, 2014 at 3:23 PM ^
Agreed -- good guy, cared for his players and coaches -- just seemed out of his league.
I will have a beer for him and his staff tonight.
Now Mattison, make a phone call to John Harbaugh and tell him we don't have a coach anymore and he can consider the opportunity...
December 2nd, 2014 at 3:27 PM ^
Best of luck to him, but this just had to be done.
