Thoughts?

FWIW: Very classy of Hoke to thank Rodriguez and staff for their dedication to the school for three years.

Can't help but feel he's extremely nervous. Speaking a bit loudly, lots of "uh"

I think sometimes people forget that it's about the best experience possible for the players. Coming back and saying that was the best time of their lives. Not the "business/adult world/kick them to the curb mentality" I was hearing over the weekend.

But thanks for the good read everyone. I had a feeling a lot of the "Hoke Hate" was not knowing him. Don't get me wrong, he has to win football games. Anyone does. But at least people seem willing to give him a chance.

I know every coach hates to lose but I really feel that Hoke will hurt not just because its a loss but also because its Michigan losing.  That passion will hopefully turn this program back to what it once was.

I've said it to tons of people over the last couple weeks - Hoke and players ahve been interviewed a ton in local SD media, I'm not completely sold on Hoke, but he sounds like a football coach and his players in SD would run thru a brick fuckin' wall for him.
