Hoke should be on the hot seat now!

[iam416]

Why? They played the same way they played almost all season. If he wasn't on the hot seat going into Iowa, losing a close game on the road won't do it.

You need UFM to lay down a beatdown so epic that it's clear Hoke will never get the upperhand against him. Unfortunately, I don't see that happening.

[Mike]

The only way that game is close is if Meyer wants it that way. This is a "name your score" game.

[WM Wolverine]

M's issues on defense are a perfect fit for Ohio; lack of a pass rush, inability to contain scrambling QB's and their QB's are too good of passers and will be given all day to complete passes against Courtney "I can give up 2 game changing plays a game" Avery.

[Ghengis Jon]

Brand-On! should issue refund checks to season ticket holders and announce that as Department Head, he is ultimately responsible for the performance of his domain. Since he has guided the debacle that is UM athletics, and charged steeply for a product he has failed to deliver, a cheerful and speedy refund is the least he can do. He should further promise that should his administration repeat the epic failure of this year, he will immediately resign and return all compensation accrued during his simulated administration. He would further provide restitution to the university from his personal assets for his fraudulent impersonation of an Athletic Director.

Kwamee Brand-On!. That's who we're stuck with. Friggin' Kwamee Brand-On!.

Maybe all the Michigan fans should just sit home next Saturday, without selling their tickets. If UM stadium is only 1/3 full, with EVERYONE in attendance dressed in scarlet, then maybe the BOT will take action in regards to our resident buffoon. Of course, Brand-On! will announce a new stadium attendance record and roundly congratulate himself on a fine marketing ploy to have UM fans come dressed in red in order to confuse the osu team on the field. Just before he announces a new 'cheering' fee, slated for implementation just in time for the 2014 season.

Stop giving him ideas, Jon.

[Rocky Bleier]

I haven't missed a Michigan/Ohio State game since 1969, but I seriously doubt I'll watch Saturday. I'm so sick with what Brandon, Hoke, and Borges have offered up week after week that I need to give up Michigan football for my mental health.

[lineygoblue]

I won't be watching either. I'll probably be at the MHSAA State Finals at Ford Field.

Better football.

Any recruiting news?

Could the M world not be ending as so many here seem to think?

[WM Wolverine]

Swenson is an 'elite' class of '16 recruit, at this point an early 5-star if they gave out stars this early. Very high ceiling.

[Da Geezer]

I don't know where to post this, but does FoxSports have the MHSAA high school games for Friday (divisions 2,4,6, and 8)? I see they do have the games for Saturday.

[lineygoblue]

Yes Fox Sports Detroit will be broadcasting both Friday's and Saturday's games from Ford Field.

During Friday's Division 6 and Division 4 finals, (4:30 pm and 7:30 pm) you'll probably see a rotund, weird little fellow with a cheesy mustache, on the chain crew. That will be me.

I'll be going back on Saturday to watch the afternoon games (yes, I will be watching HS games instead of M v O) with some of the guys from my HS football crew.

[Hannibal]

Jabrill Peppers has declared, via twitter, that he will be taking official visits after all.

[hack]

As long as it's a nail in the coffin I can live with that. If it's not then it's the worst of both worlds.

[Hannibal]

So much for having to keep around the current staff so that we can keep our star commits. It's the RichRod collapse all over again.
