Source: Kevin Tolbert not to return as S&C Coach
From the Sporting News and the twitterz:

Where do I appy?
December 13th, 2017 at 9:31 AM ^
Not sure someone with the ability to regenerate after any injury is the right candidate to be the S&C coach. Might push the team too hard.
December 13th, 2017 at 9:32 AM ^
Possibly, but if the tradeoff to that is getting the entire OL infused with adamantium, I don't think any of us could argue with that.
December 13th, 2017 at 9:37 AM ^
What Michigan really needs is this guy:
December 13th, 2017 at 11:03 AM ^
No way brotatochip. We're getting more.
December 13th, 2017 at 11:31 AM ^
Yeah, Teddy Brosevelt!
December 13th, 2017 at 4:03 PM ^
we need some good German instructors.....
December 13th, 2017 at 6:10 PM ^
Of course, East German Judge pushes the German Instructors. I'll push for White Goodman.

probably would help with our pass protection
December 13th, 2017 at 11:30 AM ^
"In response to Jim Harbaugh's new hire at the University of Michigan, the NCAA has banned the use of adamantium in strength training support."
December 13th, 2017 at 9:34 AM ^
Dude does have a great motor and that exuberance in the weightroom can translate into an edge on gameday.
December 13th, 2017 at 9:38 AM ^
Exuberance bordering on Beserker Mode could lead to a lot of unsportsmanlike conduct penalties though, so....
December 13th, 2017 at 11:26 AM ^
Put a litte adamantium in their spines.
December 13th, 2017 at 9:45 AM ^
I'm pretty sure WD has inundated the athletic department with applications by now. You might want to give it a few weeks.
December 13th, 2017 at 11:33 AM ^
Let it go.
December 13th, 2017 at 11:30 AM ^
Dude, do you even bench?!
December 13th, 2017 at 11:52 AM ^
at everyone we passed walking our dog last night. Had to come home and look it up.
December 13th, 2017 at 9:29 AM ^
More room for Gruden's son! We can finally be part of #GRUMORS

Had to cut and paste. Not the most informative article, but breaking news indeed.
December 13th, 2017 at 9:34 AM ^
Fixed.

I always feel for S&C coaches. A year plagued with injuries and you are on the block. I'm sure it's a more nuanced decision than this, but still. It's hard to fault the S&C coach for catastrophic injuries that come as a result of busted blocking assignments, or lapses in defense towards the end of the game when the offense can't get them more than a 5 minute breather. Maybe it's just that, as a matter of personal preference, I don't think that decisions like this should come at this time of the year. But then again, perhaps that's why I don't manage people or run a P5 football program.
Good luck.

in the 80's. We hired a new VP of Safety and I coached his kid in baseball. After three freak accidental deaths within his first 6 months, he was transitioned to a different job. Not anything he did or didn't do, just a "jinx thing".
December 13th, 2017 at 9:41 AM ^
Waiting until after the holidays isn't doing him any favors career wise. It just seems nicer on a personal level.
December 13th, 2017 at 9:55 AM ^
December 13th, 2017 at 10:38 AM ^
December 13th, 2017 at 11:35 AM ^
Last three?!
Try last 10!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
The guy who turned the job down to go to/stay with Stanford has got to be getting another call, perhaps "An offer he can't refuse"?
December 13th, 2017 at 3:32 PM ^
assure him that either his signature or his brains will be on a contract?
December 13th, 2017 at 2:21 PM ^
Hab you can have some of your opinions but this team and it's toughness has a lot to do with the S&C coach Tolbert. If you cant see that then you are not as wise as your avatar might state. That FACT of the matter is that this team didn't have the strenghth and endurance to finish those game there pal. They didn't have that swag of effort and cockiness that comes with bodies that are hella swoll as they say. This team needs a young guy or group of guys that are highly motivated themselves and can get these young guys to believe above and beyond what they ever thought possible could be done in six or seven months time. If a great S&C coach is hired, this team will floor the fucking cleats off of teams next year.
December 13th, 2017 at 9:30 AM ^
Too many injuries?
December 13th, 2017 at 9:34 AM ^
Also, guns!!
December 13th, 2017 at 9:36 AM ^
Rumors from far off lands on the internet (FWIW) are speculating that offensive staff changes are very much in play as well but not until after the bowl game and/or NFL season.
December 13th, 2017 at 10:49 AM ^
December 13th, 2017 at 9:37 AM ^
Seems pretty strange given the amount of time they have coached together so can't imagine its one season of bad injury luck that drove this.
December 13th, 2017 at 10:09 AM ^
Considering their history together, if Harbaugh is letting him go, you would think coach already has a pretty stellar replacement lined up.
December 13th, 2017 at 10:21 AM ^
Hopefully the dude from Stanford who was originally coming when JH was hired but then backed out at the last second.
December 13th, 2017 at 10:38 AM ^
Did he lure Barwis back to Ann Arbor?
December 13th, 2017 at 10:44 AM ^
I hope not

Perfect weather today for a Rocky IV montage

Saturday. As I passed, perhaps a hundred kids were waving at me as I jogged by. It was the only Rocky moment of my life. I just wish someone would have thrown me an apple to make the memory complete...

If you can catch this chicken, you can catch JK Dobbins.
