Don't have a problem with Captains being named after the season. Leaders will lead whether they're given the title in an official capacity or not. DG has the respect of every dude on that squad.
I don't think anyone ever accused Hoke of NOT being a class act... only that he can't head coach. I like the guy too, but I wouldn't hire him to HC my football team. Position coach, yeah. Kids need a guy like him around.
Yeah, it looks like the team has thrown in the towel. The players (some of them) want JH gone. What better way to expedite that than by going down to the Rai-duhs.
I'm a realist, so I understand that earliest UM will know 100% if JH is coming won't be until the 49ers are eliminated form a playoff spot (unless they sneak in).
So, in summary, this guy is saying Michigan football sucks because of Rich Rodriguez. See, this is what happens when people think they're bigger than the program. Brandon, Carr, Van Bergen, the kids who transfered after RR was hired...
Michigan football (for the last two seasons) stinks because Brady Hoke was not a good head coach. The dudes heart was in the right place but he wasn't ready. Anyways, RVB should be ashamed of himself for openly admitting the team quit on RR. Had they went out and balled, the fanbase would've hopped on the bandwagon.
Hey RVB, how's about you go join Hoke's staff at whatever sister-of-the-poor hires him...and take Carr with you.
B.S. with a huge grain of salt is still B.S. That was the point of my 90 year old aunt, post.
Anyone can get on the internet and post anything, but I was called the troll for making fun of that.
While all of these rumors are entertaining, let's live in reality. If any deal with any coach is already done, no numbnuts on Reddit knows about it.
The enire planet Earth knows JH is the #1, #2, and #3 choice for the job. The job Hackett has is to not put JH in a position where he has to make a decision RIGHT NOW like Brandon and Carr did with Les. They knew Les wasn't going to take the job and bail on the title game so they made sure to put him in a position to actually have to say it.
Hackett is playing this just as he should. Not putting potential candidates in a position where they have to take themselves out of the running, but also keeping the #1 choice at a distance -by that I mean not forcing him to accept or decline before NFL season is over- like they did with Les in 2007.
Right now, IN MY OPINION, Hackett doesn't know 100% if JH is coming. This is why he's keeping potential candidate names close to the vest. Harbaugh could very well still be coaching a game in February (unlikely but possible). Is Wolverine Nation willing to wait that long?
Over the next few weeks, there could be some interviews taking place. What if the next "Harbaugh" shows up before the real JH's season is done? Then what? Do you pass on a sure thing while the 49ers are making a playoff run or do you wait it out? I don't know and I'm glad I don't have to make that call.
One thing I do know is this: the 2015 recruiting class is probably going to be a joke and the next season for whoever the next coach is will most likely be a nightmare as a result... Unless it's a current college coach who may have a few recruits follow him to Ann Arbor.
So, yeah. I think some candidates are going to interview so those expecting JH to show up before January are reaching beyond reality. Grab a Snickers because this process is going to take a while.
Miles probably would have been the HC already had Carr not undercut the program in 2007. Whether he did it from Schembechler Hall or a Domino's Pizza location, UM football is looked at a joke because of the influence he's had since stepping down.
Of course he "endorses" JH right now. He'd be the only idiot in the state of Michigan not doing so. My opinion and my point is that Carr's opinion on who's hired is no longer needed.
I'm not a troll, I assure you. My 1st post may seem like it, but whatever. I'm as big a UM fan as anybody.
My personal opinion is that JH is giving this SERIOUS consideration but nothing more at this point. I think the Llloyd Carr "endorsement" is a "white flag" of sorts acknowledging that his R.R./Hoke nonsense screwed the program.
I felt that Miles should have been the guy to succeed Carr. I also think R.R. should have been given that 4th year (yeah, I'm one of those people) but realized that wouldn't be best for HIM.
None of the TV guys appeal to me (Gruden, Cowher, Dungy, Edwards, etc...). Do I think JH or LM will accept if offered? Maybe.
JH, I think, is now an NFL coach. Had he not had immediate success in SF, then he may have come home with no hesitation. Honestly, if he is truly out as the 49ers coach, I see him in NY before Ann Arbor (Giants need Coughlin to do the right thing and quit so they don't get hamstrung). The Raiders and the Jets both need to cease operations for a season or two. He ain't going to either of those black holes.
Miles, well, as long as Carr has an office in that building, he ain't coming. 'nuff said.
So, while this Reddit post may be a beautiful read to the fans with JH goggles on, I'm using common sense. If you guys want to get trolled by Cowherd and Reddit, then go ahead. Meanwhile, I'm keeping hope alive that we end up with a guy whose going to make ohio and MSU poop thier pants. JH is THE guy, but not the only guy.
My 90 year old aunt could have written Reddit post that and she knows nothing about football.
I've got sources who say Brady Hoke has hired Shaun T and will be on P90X for the next month so he can come back disguised as a different guy. Even getting a headset permently stiched to his head as that will throw-off any facial recognition software any suspicious fans may use on the "new" coach.
My source has ties to Ball State where they know a person close to the landscaping crew who overheard a conversation between Jason Whitlock and another "fat guy" holding what looked to be Beats by Dre and an SM58 microphone.

It's ones own fault for getting trolled.
At this point, is it really all that shocking that JH is everyone's choice? I mean, come on.

I think it's a jab a somebody. Maybe to someone who's putting themself before the program???
