Michigan Rumors Summary Video
So with all of the information that is being thrown around various social media platforms, I thought I'd share this video that addresses the current coaching carousel at UM. It matches up pretty well with the information that is being discussed on the premium UM forums (247/Scout and Rivals). Hope this helps everyone organize this mess.
EDIT, Link Taken Down*** I apologize. I did not know that we banned ChatSports videos. Just recently became active again on MGoBlog. I just saw that the video information (regarding Enos, Frey, Partridge, etc) matched up with the other forums. Sorry everyone, please don't kill me.

That was Rick Leach's freshman season when he ran the ball more in the option attack. Later Bo found that Rick could pass. A QB who can throw more than 20 yards down field and complete these passes will dramatically improve our historically low passing yards. It will also help our running game. Hard to run when the other team puts 9 up at the LOS.

This is complete 100% easily refutable bullshit.
Total passing yards 2017: 2226
Just picking years at random from UM's football stats archive:
Total passing yards 1990: 2015
Total passing yards 2008: 1718
Total passing yards 1989: 1933
I'm not disputing that our passing game was miserable this year, but with an easily accessible stats database to refer to, there's no excuse for spreading stuff that's wrong.

I think it is fewest passing TDs since 1975 not fewest passing yards.

Lets see how well it works when Georgia tries it Monday night!

Rich Rod left Hoke a better O line and QBs than the shit show Hoke left Harbaugh.
Try to picture last year's team with Devin Gardner, Schofield, and Lewan.

I would give Chris a raise. I remember he was only a HS coach from NJ but was the one who brought Peppers to Michigan, along with Gary and Solomon from GA. Plus for only being a HS coach he did a good job with the LB this season.

January 4th, 2018 at 8:00 AM ^
He was hired by Harbaugh after Peppers had already been here for a year. And that only happened because a job at Rutgers fell through.
January 4th, 2018 at 11:01 AM ^
Job at Rutgers falls through and he ends up at Michigan. Dude falls upward better than Dave Brandon but with the talent to actually do something with it.

People post shit rumormill news sites all over this website all the time and it's perfectly fine unless it's some specific set of sites that have somehow sleighted the mgoblog-base in some imaginary way.
Meanwhile, we've got stimulating and well thought out board posts such as; Low hanging fruit - a thread equating JH firing the S&C coach as going after the low hanging fruit, A Modest Attempt At Perspective - A snowflake thread where a guy tells us all to chill out, and OT: TV Ted Washington? - a super sweet 2 sentence long thread bitching about espn goofing up a fact.

libelous BS in the past. I'm talking totally fabricated stories that they present as fact. Like would a former Michigan player not only grant an inside scoop interview to a no-name 16 year old "journalist" but also detail program, coach, and player reputation damning information to him? Its outlandish bullshit like that that has gotten them banned from this site. Throwing out rumors is one thing, but they have completely crossed the line and have zero ethics in some of the "stories" that they have done. They care about only one thing, getting clicks, and will do anything to get it.

After that bowl game, we should.

I reject this! Coconut shrimp is wonderful stuff. You people who think otherwise have no taste...
January 4th, 2018 at 7:13 PM ^
Earlier that day I was honestly considering taking the wife to an Outback since we both enjoy coconut shrimp and expeted to have some for free... then the 2nd half happened and I sulked for the rest of the day instead.

Don Brown is going to radically alter the way defense is played in college football. The best part is, they don't count against our scholarship limit! Hudl? Hudl.

I see Kurt Anderson's name poppping up a lot. A possible O line guy, I guess.
So far all the names being thrown around, Greg Roman, Kurt Anderson, Al Washington, and Dan Enos, none would be consensus home runs. At least in the eyes of the fan message boards.
Also, Chris Balas is reporting that the entire offensive staff will be turning over, FWIW. I think that is a paywalled article but various places on the internet are summarizing it. Which is why I don't pay for any "insider" info because it is readily available within a few seconds for free.
EDIT: looks like Al Washington is a done deal as a RB coach possibly.
January 4th, 2018 at 10:58 AM ^
still reporting that DPJ is transferring or any other bs they come up with?

Did I miss this? Is Drevno not going to continue being our OC?
January 4th, 2018 at 11:22 AM ^
Mike Yurich?
January 4th, 2018 at 11:51 AM ^
So I guess I got banned from posting new content. Sorry guys, didn't think it'd get this out of hand.
January 4th, 2018 at 2:10 PM ^
I'm pretty sure it's because you're in the negative in points
January 4th, 2018 at 12:10 PM ^
So much for my guess. Memphis was the only school to finish in the top 10 in rushing and passing offense. Unfortunately, their OC was just hired at Texas A&M on Monday.
January 4th, 2018 at 12:30 PM ^
Per Ian Rapoport on Twitter:
"One coach who is no longer under contract and will be a free agent: #Ravens Senior Offensive Assistant Greg Roman. Possible OC choice."
