The question for me has been when not if.Mission to CFB's National Championship accomplished. But the shine on the NC Trophy is embarrassingly wearing off. It's M B-Ball ..... or hockey or volley ball or name your college sport favorite time ...... until next year.Comment

Mark Schlissel couldn't state it any clearer, if the Michigan program had been wining Dave Brandon would still have a job and we wouldn't be having this press briefing today.
He gets it, that is why Hoke MUST be fired today and a national search started tomorrow and for long as it takes. Name an interim coach now (Mattison/Nussmeier), and flip every stone in football and flip them again if necessary, by a selection committee led by the new AD.
The current cash cow and filled stadium will not survive a 3rd terrible hire. There are plenty of good NFL & College football coaches out there, open the purse strings and make it happen.?I don?t take vacations. I don?t get sick. I don?t observe major holidays. I?m a jackhammer.?Comment

ESPN says rumor is that Michigan is targeting Northwestern's AD. I wonder if that could bring Fitzgerald into play as HCComment

Can't see it.Comment

I hope not
Fitzgerald isn't exactly tearing it up at NW."The stockings were hung by the chimney with care, .. I'd worn them for weeks, and they needed the air"Comment

Fitzgerald would be a disapointing hire.Comment

We may lose even more until the coaching situation is settled."The stockings were hung by the chimney with care, .. I'd worn them for weeks, and they needed the air"Comment

with the uncertaintly in Hoke's future, it's not surprising. Those who committed to play for Michigan will stay (unless the new coaches scheme doesn't match them), but those who committed to this staff will look. Any coaching transition = disappointing recruiting yearGrammar... The difference between feeling your nuts and feeling you're nuts.Comment

The problem with that is that M isn't much to commit to at the moment. You'd have to grow up a lifelong, devoted M fan to hold your commitment to a program that has been 46-41 with one bowl win and zero championships in the past 7 years. That's not much to hang your hat on in order to ignore the coaching staff -- the folks who charged with developing you as a player for the next 4-5 years.
They're down to 8 recruits. Of those 8, Chris Clark is gone, Brian Cole is sure looking around and Mike Weber may even have a looksy.
The single positive for M in this debacle of a year is that the recruiting class was going to be really tight on numbers anyway. Better to shit the bed with a class size of 15 than 25.Dan Patrick: What was your reaction to [Urban Meyer being hired]?
Brady Hoke: You know.....not....good.Comment

I'm a lifelong M fan, and if I was a big time recruit I'd have trouble committing if I really wanted a chance to play on Sundays.To be a professional means that you don't die. - Takeru "the Tsunami" KobayashiComment
