Harbaugh with no Luck

I think Harbaugh in year two would have a good shot at winning 10 plus games, but the schedule in year 2 we will have to play Wis go to MSU, Iowa, and OSU. Plus they need to add a major game to the non conference. If the team goes .500 in those games in year two of a new coaching staff I will be very impressed. Let's say we go the Spread run coaching style like a Dan Mullen/Urban route. In his first recruiting class he would have to hit a home run with a QB. Like what RR was trying to do with Pryor. If he lands that recruit and plays him right away he will be a sophomore in year two and I don't see any way they go .500 in the major games and we are more likely to have a 6 to 8 win type season. I would hope the fans would be excited by this number of wins but we aren't happy now with a coach with this type of success. RR was a blue chip hire at the time at a blue chip program and in year three he only got us to 7 wins because his QB was only in his second year. Now if we go outside of the Box and hire a Big 12 type spread air raid coach I think he could be successful because Morris will be a senior or Speight will be a red shirt sophomore, and I think those options at QB are better than a true sophomore run first spread QB. If we keep Hoke I think 10 plus wins next year should be floor of the team and if we don't get their then we should start looking for another coach. Next year we would return everyone on O but Gardner and if Funch stays. They will be in the second year of a Nuss O instead of learning thier 3 or 4 O depending in how many offenses they learned under Al. (I think Funch stays if hoke stays I think he is gone if we change coaches, hoke is loved by the players and he has gotten guys that should have left and played somewhere else or NFL like Denard Gardner and Lewan to stay). Also the oline has been improving every week this year and vs Indiana they didn't have the mental errors they were haveing at the beginning of the year. On defense again we would have players that understand thier responsibilities instead of haveing to learn a whole new scheme and have the mental errors that come along with that.

Urban walked into a loaded Florida team. He also has walk into an OSU program that from day one has had a QB that fits his style. Saban did a really good job at Alabama and I don't really know the specifics of their roster when he was hired. Tressel walked into a loaded Ohio State team, people forget how good of a recruiter Cooper was. Then he got Maurice Clarret in his second year who was a stud for that year. Look up how many players from that Miami vs OSU national champ game made the pros it is rediculous and all those guys were cooper recruits. I don't know enough about the state of Oklahomas roster at the time of Stoops hire to comment on that. RR walked into a bad roster for the style of play he wanted at Michigan without a QB that fit him and a fan base that isn't patient. Hoke walked into a roster that had a good senior class an alright junior class and a awful sophomore and freshman class that got even worse as guys washed out of the program.
