The DFBIA will be thinking they are going to score a huge hire. I really can't see many takers of a job that includes irrational expectations each year. This is multi-year rebuilding job for the new head coach. Talent is there but not in abundance.

It wouldn't surprise me if we see another tour of the country like St. Bill Martin was doing a few years back when they hired Hoke. Most of the head coaching candidates were turning down job offer after job offer.

Minnie has played the last place team in the East, 4th thru 6th in the West and three bozos from out of conference. They are improving but I see at least 3 losses to finish the year.

Not bad for Minnie but they have always spotted themselves 3 wins from nonconference.

Not sure a whole lot of folks had predicted a 9-3 season for the Gophers. I think they're better than many give them credit for. Maybe Wiscy will blow them out later, maybe not.

True. And that's admirable, but like already said, anything less than that would be surprising...

Their FBS slate is a combined 16-24 (Corn is the only opponent with a winning record at 4-3) and they beat FCS South Dakota State by a touchdown. Maryland should get them to 8-0, then three of their last four are against ranked opponents. That's when we'll see if he's really got something going, or if he just rode a powderpuff schedule to a fast start.

If he gets them to 10 wins this year, a major program is gonna snatch him up.

Normal, even half-way intelligent human being: Harbaugh might leave rather than continue his current downward trend into shit and irrelevance? Great. Good riddance.

DFBIA Mongoloid: No way is he leaving. This can't be true. If he leaves, we're doomed.

The manner in which their all-in emotional investment in this guy completely crowds any rational thought and critical evaluation of his actual...you know...results is truly magnificent.

This one's cute. He actually thinks they're going to win ten games this year.

A guy who has turned Stanford into a winner and taken an NFL team to a Super Bowl is a home run hire.

Jim took over a 5-7 team and now has us at the point where we're mad at winning only 10 games a season. As RichRod/Hoke showed, we shouldn't take this for granted.

Fleck worries me. I don't think Fickell will consider it, but if that happened, I'll take Day (and our talent level) over Tresselball any day. As others have mentioned, the grass eater could cause problems, and maybe Harbaugh bolting for the NFL would cause them to hit such a level of rock bottom that the admin tells Lloyd to take his fatwa and shove it up his ass, but I'm not sure. They're still too wrapped up in their "michigan man" bullshit to choose a banished outcast over a "true michigan man" like LLoyd.

Man, that’s rough. I mean fuck Harbaugh but that’s a public roasting of biblical proportion. Do they have a past or anything? Not in a sexual way, but you know what I mean.

I mean I guess there could be a sexual past but that’s irrelevant.

I guess it could he relevant if Finebaum got hurt.

This turned into a weird post quick my bad

My guess would be Harbaugh / Bacon' book this Summer, that basically called everyone else cheaters -- but especially the SEC.
I'm sure Finebaum made remarks before, but seems like another level this year.

Two names out there (potentially) concern me:
  • Matt Campbell - he's a terrific coach, with midwest ties, who has been successful at Iowa freakin' State. Not sure he has the recruiting chops to make scUM a perennial contender.
  • P.J. Fleck - young, energetic and charismatic, I think he would recruit like a mofo up there, but not sure the coaching accumen matches the recruiting potential.
scUM needs a rock star like Urban Meyer to get that program to the levels of the tOSUs, Bammers, and Clemsons of the world. I don't think that guy is out there right now. And there's 0.0 chance Urban comes out of retirement for that job. None.

Yeap. Neither those guys are Saban... but could prove to be the guy who takes them out of shithole for the one that comes after.
I really just prefer keeping Harbaugh... they will routinely be Top25 for [reasons], but never pose a real threat. Especially now that his recruiting schtick has floundered.
The alternative is they get a bum like Hoke and stop getting obligatory over-rankings (not a lot of B1G teams get that kind of SEC treatment).
Or they land a guy who occasionally takes a game off us.
I'd rather take the series in next decade... it's all they have left.

There seems to be more of a groundswell of anti-harbros this season. I think being in year five and still being AT BEST a ten win team has them at the realization that 10-3 is their CEILING. That wasn't what they were expecting. The prodigal son was supposed to elevate them to the top of cfb. Recruits were supposed to be tripping over themselves to play for him and their national championship caliber program. He was supposed to fart Andrew Lucks. Instead, they peaked in year two, then took a sharp decline and seem to have plateaud at 8-9 wins, his best QB was a game-managing Iowa castoff, their recruiting has been very "meh", and a guy who was supposed to make their offense a bammer "manball BLAAARGGGHHH" powerhouse is instead a sludge-fart failing miserably to implement something resembling a modern offense.

Meanwhile, three hours south, their blood rival has, maybe, their most complete team ever on the heels of replacing a legendary head coach and stole their two best assistants. It's a dark time for wolverine fan.

No way they turn to Les Miles. He's turning 66, and while his goofy charm might play in Lawrence, KS, he still has the stench of his last few years at LSU and reeks of "old school."

If they have to make a coaching change, I expect they do another 180 like post-Llllllllloyd and hire some "hot name." They are flailing under the "ultimate _ichigan man", and I don't know if they go back to that well. Especially when the one viable option is approaching 70.
