if Urban and his staff were coaching Michigan, Michigan would have won.
BTW, our defense is good until the game is on the line. This has happened in several games and though I believe Mattison is a good defensive coach it probably is time for him to consider retirement.
November 29th, 2014 at 3:31 PM ^
Coach Hoke, I appreciate your commitment to helping 115 kids grow into men, and your commitment to graduating your players. But you're just not a coach for this level. Wish you the best.
November 29th, 2014 at 3:32 PM ^
I want their desks cleared by this evening...
November 29th, 2014 at 3:33 PM ^
November 29th, 2014 at 3:33 PM ^
But what if Hoke wins out?
November 29th, 2014 at 3:38 PM ^
Only if we win the National Championship
November 29th, 2014 at 3:35 PM ^
Brady Hoke is not going to lose another game at Michigan. Book it!

Ohio looked well coached
Michigan, not so much

having a hard time deciding on my favorite coaching decision...
November 29th, 2014 at 3:46 PM ^
So when was the last time had a moderately successful 2nd half? What the hell goes on at halftime? I'm certainly not going to miss this once this entire staff is canned
November 29th, 2014 at 3:47 PM ^
We were playing loose, looked good, even I daresay having fun???
Then the 2nd half started (well along with the prevent at the end of the 1st). Looked confused, nervous, timid, conservative, out of synch. The football we have come to know under Hoke.
Why oh why no more passes to Funchess, who looked interested, until it was too late?

against Penn St. How soon they forget. /s
November 29th, 2014 at 3:48 PM ^
Nothing left to talk about.
Bye, bye. Farewell. Auf Wiedersehen.
November 29th, 2014 at 3:48 PM ^
Coaching was poor. At least this was the last time Hoke will be on the sidelines for Michigan. I wish him plenty of success during the rest of his career in the MAC.
Now: Hire Harbaugh.
November 29th, 2014 at 3:48 PM ^
1. UM played well today. The coaches had good plans, and it was generally executed. OSU's players made some plays (the 4th and 1 play not withstanding, ugh, how can 4-5 guys all key on their 2nd or 3rd likely option on that play.)
2. It's over. Time to sit back and see when they do it (Monday), and who they bring in. Not a time to gloat, not a time to complain.
November 29th, 2014 at 3:51 PM ^
at the end of the game was embarrassing. Very disappointed in the end of the game as it was a winnable game and the defense didn't seem to perform very well.
November 29th, 2014 at 3:51 PM ^
Btw, anyone watching the UK-Louisville game? I posted the CC: Mark Stoops thread. About that--yeah nevermind.
November 29th, 2014 at 3:52 PM ^
The only current coach who has much of a chance to be back next year is Manning.
November 29th, 2014 at 4:04 PM ^
He sucks at coaching defensive backs and as far as recruiting goes, I'm sure Mike Hart or some other former player would do just as well. The entire staff is poison at this point, they should all be gone.
November 29th, 2014 at 4:44 PM ^
why force a single member of this staff on a new coach? Clean sweep.

In-game adjustments is something this staff hasn't done well since, what, Nebraska 2011?

again. Out adjusted at halftime, and poor timeout management.
November 29th, 2014 at 3:59 PM ^
Well, let's see...
Our two chief rivals are ranked in the top 10 with OSU having a shot at both the Big Ten champiosnhip as well as the national championship by sneaking into the playoffs.
Our former coach, who a lot of dumb people sabotaged and ran out of town, has his team playing for the PAC-12 championship, and they will most certainly be in the top 10 next week with an outside shot at sneaking into the playoffs and competing for a national championship.
I'd say the best thing about the coaches is that we will have all new ones very soon.

November 29th, 2014 at 4:00 PM ^
Mattison showed us today how overrated his defense has been. Every time we tie a game or take a lead, they always fall apart. Oh and Roy Manning sucks at coaching defensive backs.
November 29th, 2014 at 4:03 PM ^
Story of Hoke against Urban Meyer:
- In their last drive of the first half in each of the last three games, we have allowed OSU to score. A FG in 2012, and a TD each of the last two games. We were also the previous team to score, which means we had some momentum. And we blew it each time.
- In the third quarter of these three games, we have been outscored 34-7. That touchdown came today. We failed to make adjustments or just made the wrong ones.
In each of these games, I think it's obvious we played hard and we pulled some tricks out. But our players just weren't put in the best position to win the game by the coaches.

November 29th, 2014 at 4:10 PM ^
I don't understand why so many people are convinced Hoke will get fired. You think he should be fired and I think he should be fired. It seems like the only move that makes sense. But how many things has Michigan done in the last bunch of years that make sense when it comes to football? I just don't agree that the powers that be at Michigan will necessarily do what the rest of us think is the obvious, sensible move. There are no guarantees.
November 29th, 2014 at 4:15 PM ^
He's done. There is no arguement after the last 2 games.
November 29th, 2014 at 4:48 PM ^
I hope you are right. I just no longer have faith that Michigan's administration and our interim/noninterim AD will see what is obvious to the rest of us.
November 29th, 2014 at 4:10 PM ^
This is not a "We should have kept RR" post, but I can't help but feel like the final embarrassment of the Hoke Era is going to be Arizona winding up against OSU or MSU in the bowl and Rodriguez kicking their ass and making it look easy.
November 29th, 2014 at 4:22 PM ^
neither is very good this year but they're both playing a lot of soft teams.
November 29th, 2014 at 5:14 PM ^
Don't be so sure. Beating either MSU or OSU would be a first for Rodriguez.
November 29th, 2014 at 9:30 PM ^
It would also be the first time he has the talent to challenge them.
November 29th, 2014 at 4:11 PM ^
but you're the weakest link goodbye
