Make sure Harbaugh is happy.
December 2nd, 2015 at 9:01 AM ^
The comittee should = Harbaugh
December 2nd, 2015 at 9:03 AM ^
The first question should be: do you think you are more important than the University?

I thought it would be "would you walk to Michigan?"

I was hoping Hackett would stay a little bit longer. He has done such a tremendous job. As many on here have said, he it the anti-Brandon.
December 2nd, 2015 at 9:10 AM ^
the CEO from Toy's R Us would make a great candidate.

Hackett decides to step away and Mgoblog goes down. Coincidence? Doubt it.

I think the OP's phrasing (PHRASING!) implies that Michigan does not want Hackett to stay on. According to the Detroit News article that is absolutely not the case.
Hackett will not be considered? Technically true. But Hackett won't be considered because he has notified the university that he does not intend to stay on.
Also, head over to the Detroit News article for the pictures. The picture of Hackett wearing the letter jacket - could Hackett look more like Marlon Brando as Col. Walter Kurtz in Apocalypse Now? With luck, he will conduct interviews in a darkened hut, and drop a model of Dave Brandon's severed head in candidates' laps to see how they react under pressure.

just a model?
December 2nd, 2015 at 10:10 AM ^
also noted in the mlive article to which the OP linked: "'Jim did not wish to be considered for the permanent AD role,' Schlissel said in the release." But maybe that was added when the article was edited?

Guy loves Michigan, coaches and players love him, he could raise money, is loyal, is on the payroll already and most of all, won't be a coach!
December 2nd, 2015 at 9:53 AM ^
Plus Hoke would not have punted at the end of the MSU game. He could help teach Harbaugh how to better coach in game situations!!

What a great replacement for that dirtbag DB. I'm so glad that we had Hackett when we did, and I wish he would stay on. He's a great representative for UM. I loved his comments on what makes a 'Michigan Man.'

He'll have an excellent mentor to make the transition.

Over the last year, Hackett oversaw Michigan's hiring of new football coach Jim Harbaugh, extended the contracts of men's basketball coach John Beilein and women's basketball coach Kim Barnes Arico, and helped negotiates an apparel contract with Nike contract worth upwards of $169 million over 15 years.
Even when he walks out the door that final time, we can say of Hackett, "Yeah, it was only for about a year, but it was one hell of a year."
Sounds like they are laying the foundation to make a good hire too.
December 2nd, 2015 at 11:32 AM ^
best on we have had.
December 2nd, 2015 at 12:43 PM ^
I hope that they do not choose Jeff Long.
