Hiring a QB coach out of nowhere is also a personal tap out for Harbaugh, who was supposed to do that himself.

Another highlight is moving Bellamy from WR coach to safety, because he doesn’t have any position coaching experience anyway, so fuck it, it shouldn’t really matter that much where we put him, right?

Fingers crossed landing Donovan Edwards was worth it. :lol:
It's almost like...he has...NO PLAN. Just wingin' it, baby! :slappy:

Okay, wait, wait, wait...:lol:

So, Simple Jim's LB coach bails for the same job at tire fire Tennessee in a lateral move and he replaces him by hiring a new QB coach. BUT THAT'S NOT ALL! The guy he's hiring to coach his QBs and newly arriving 5* prized recruit, JJ McCarthy, has NEVER coached QBs before. His resume has the following job titles (most recent on down): RB Coach, WR Coach, Offensive Assistant, CBs Coach, LB Coach/Defensive QC, Defensive QC Coach, Head Coach's Assistant. He's replacing, supposedly, one of his best recruiters with a career NFL assistant who has never coached or recruited in college.

So, he has bounced around all over the field, coaching LBs, CBs, WRs & RBs but NEVER QBs. He never stayed in one spot for more than 2 years, aside from 3 years as "Head Coach's Assistant." Brilliant. Utterly BRILLIANT!

*EDIT* - _goblog is saying he did work with the Ratbirds QBs in 2016/17, when they had a shitshow at the position with Flacco/Mallet. They're unsure of how much a hand he actually had in coaching the position. :lol:

Sounds like Ohio State QB coach Nick Siciliano...we all know who is really coaching the QB.

His plan was tactical but lacking overall strategy.

Hire Donovan Edwards’ high school coach to make sure he commits to Michigan.

Somehow squeeze a guy with no collegiate experience, or any experience whatsoever outside of HS HC, into your coaching staff.

???

Maybe go back to the NFL?

Judging by the apparent total lack of interest this year, it appears that ship may have sailed...

Indeed a good list: A minor point and an observation

Illinois streak from 1963 to 1983 appears to be a 19 year drought, not 18

I guess it's just semantics, but I'm counting the seasons that they did not win a championship. So if a team won a championship in Year 1, did not win it in Year 2, and then won again in Year 3, I am counting the 1 year they did not win a championship - not the 2 years between championships.
So winning in 1963 and in 1983, I'm counting 1964 through 1982 as the years they did not win a championship.

Also... Ohio State's longest drought is farther in the past than anyone else's. By a lot

Yep. Wisconsin's longest streak started before Ohio State's, and ended much after Ohio State's, but most or many teams' longest drought are either in progress or ended in the 80's or 90's or later, even.

Your count was different for Illinois than everyone else though. For all other ranges, it was the range minus 1. For Illinois it was the range minus 2. The range minus 1 is correct. When you take away the championship years, you are left with a range where both the first and the last number are included, so it is THAT range PLUS 1 (equal to the original range minus 1). So for Illinois...

1963 Championship
1964 Year 1 of Drought
1965 Year 2 of Drought
1966 Year 3 of Drought
1967 Year 4 of Drought
1968 Year 5 of Drought
1969 Year 6 of Drought
1970 Year 7 of Drought
1971 Year 8 of Drought
1972 Year 9 of Drought
1973 Year 10 of Drought
1974 Year 11 of Drought
1975 Year 12 of Drought
1976 Year 13 of Drought
1977 Year 14 of Drought
1978 Year 15 of Drought
1979 Year 16 of Drought
1980 Year 17 of Drought
1981 Year 18 of Drought
1982 Year 19 of Drought
1983 Championship

I'm going to stick this here because it's fun to laugh at M*ch*gan.

Every Big Ten team's longest championship drought.

Chicago - 22 years. They won in 1924, then quit after the 1946 season.
Illinois - 19 years. They are currently on this streak. They won in 2001, and haven't won since. This breaks their previous longest streak of 18 years, when they won in 1963 and again in 1983.
Indiana - 53 years. They last won a championship in 1967 (tied with Minnesota and Purdue) and haven't won since.
Iowa - 33 years. They won in 1922 and then again in 1956. Their last championship was 2004 (tied with M*ch*gan).
Maryland - 7 years. They joined in 2014 and haven't yet won a championship.
M*ch*gan - 16 years. They last won in 2004 (tied with Iowa) and haven't won since.
Michigan State - 19 years. They won in 1990 and again in 2010 (tied with Ohio State and Wisconsin).
Minnesota - 53 years. They last won a championship in 1967 (tied with Indiana and Purdue) and haven't won since.
Nebraska - 10 years. They joined in 2011 and haven't yet won a championship.
Northwestern - 58 years. When they won a championship in 1995, they broke the longest drought in Big Ten history, with their previous championship coming in 1936.
Ohio State - 14 years. The shortest "longest" drought of any Big Ten team to join since 1951. The Buckeyes' longest drought was after their 1920 championship and ended with a 1935 championship (tied with Minnesota).
Penn State - 10 years. Penn State has the shortest "longest" drought of any team to have ever won a championship, with their drought lasting from their championship in 1994 and ending with their championship in 2005.
Purdue - 32 years. 1967 had been their last championship, until Drew Brees won them a championship in 2000. They haven't won since and are now on a 20-year drought.
Rutgers - 7 years. See Maryland.
Wisconsin - 39 years. They won in 1912 and again in 1952.

Ohio State has won 11 conference championships (8 outright) since M*ch*gan's last championship.
If M*ch*gan can't win until 2025 or later, their drought will be longer than Michigan State's longest drought.
If Indiana or Minnesota can't win until 2026 or later, their droughts will become the longest in Big Ten history.

Edit - I found a spelling mistake.

I know I went to Watkins and we aren't exactly the smartest "at the maths", but I'm pretty sure Iowa's streak is either 16 like scUM's or 65 from 1956....

First of all, they sent the press to attack our QB on the sideline. Now, they are unleashing murderous spiders:
https://www.foxnews.com/us/venomous...cluse-university-of-michigan-library-shutdown

This is likely in revenge for claiming we sent our dogs after them in Columbus, although Tressell pointed out that they were ahead at half time.
Some arachnophobic library staffer is getting a write-up for that one!

"A misunderstanding of the situation led the library to close for two days," Broekhuizen said in a statement. "Based on what we all know now, library managers agree that it was a mistake to close the building and they apologize for the inconvenience to the university community."

(Also old library basements are all super creepy, and I say that as a librarian.)
