How many games were lost to QB play? The answer? Yes. Every single game is changed if you swap Shea Patterson instead of Speight/O’Korn/Peters... they’d be at worst 10-2... if you flip Peters in over Speight/O’Korn for all 13, you’d probably be looking at 9-3 to 11-2

will do wonders, the running game will drastically improve against the better Ds who know we are 1-D without a QB. Next year schedule is tough but I think at ND, at MSU, PSU and WI are all toss up games. OSU will probably be too tough to beat on the road. So we may end up 9-3 but the offense will improve.

Despite what many keyboard warriors want you to believe, he’s not here to be mediocre. He’s not infallible but that doesn’t mean he can’t reevaluate and make the right changes when needed.

That Jim should not go out of his way to start spats with other coaches, teams or fan bases for awhile. Only works when you are coming from a position of strength. If someone takes a shot at him,then maybe he can respond. Or maybe he should eat it for now until the situation improves.

But on a positive note, there's still plenty of time for him to change his mind.

It's also in his best interest. The luster is already starting to fade and after next year -- barring a miracle -- his NFL window will be virtually closed.

Have much better options right now than Jim Harbaugh. Strange season. Jim seemed out of character. Little emotion. Never thought I’d see our punk ass kicker get in his face and him cover for the kid (Maryland game). Nordin acts like an entitled brat, motioning a crotch grab at SC sideline before half. Really? Character red flags from his recruitment days...Mr. Hollywood with his private jet. DB. So many concerns on lack of discipline with this team. Where’s the hard ass coach?

I don't think these doomsday statements about the program hold much weight. Look what Speight did just last season. We aren't that far off. It doesn't help we are in the strongest division in the ncaa, but a few good breaks and this whole season is different.

You don't blow things up at this point when the Harbaugh recruits are just maturing. And the defense isn't without its own blame. McCray on running backs, and insert safety''s name here on fast wide outs has been a huge issue. But this team isn't like watching year 3 of Brady Hoke's team. If we wanted innovative offense, and offensive defense we should have kept Rich Rod.
