Article - Coach Zordich talks cornerbacks
Coach Zordich mentioned academics twice in this article. I respect that so much, and it reflects what I see as the integrity of the Michigan program. No program is perfect. But, I like to hear about coaches holding players accountable for the student aspect of being a student/athlete.
March 4, 2016. I feel that that's the day for when I started to lose my mind.
Ever since, I've been thinking of things that probably will never happen, and I can't stop. No matter what I do or say.
Huh? Wrong thread, maybe?
This board attracts a lot of weirdos. Get on some meds and do some therapy.
Get on some meds and do some therapy
You mean weed and Jimi Hendrix, right?
Therapy isn't gonna help me with the fact that I still have a crush on a girl from HS four years ago!
Dude I'm 40 and still think about my HS GF.
I think getting you in touch with reality would probably be step one.
Dafuq?

Zordich really does seem like the type of coach who gets on players for not going to class or taking the opportunities given to them for granted, and I respect the hell out of that. I don't get a sense he's overly preachy or anything, but "hey, stop shitting around and take this seriously" is absolutely the mindset I think most college students need to be reminded of once or twice (lord knows I needed it).

Someone should get on him for his recruiting.
Maybe you should
His boss probably should, but thanks for the vote of confidence.
I believe this is the reason they don't recruit some athletes. They have a type of player they won't recruit regardless of rankings
Yes. It's probably no accident that he's been on the staff since the beginning. He and Harbaugh might see eye-to-eye on several topics.

Fluff fluff fluff
Our secondary gets burned a lot by good QBs. That may be more of the DC fault who tries to put pressure on the QB but leaves single coverage against fast WR? But it is good he stresses academics.
If you manage to pair a good QB with talented receivers they will score and there is nothing you can do about it. See: every successful modern offense, ever.
Most programs don't have All-American DTs or a bus full of 5-star cornerbacks, although lately Michigan seems to think they don't even need warm bodies at either position.

There were a combined 811 yards passing in last year's LSU/Bama game. Everybody's secondary gets burned by good QBs--that's college football these days, man.
I drank a few beers with Zordich several years back the night before a satellite camp. Very cool laid back dude! We mainly talked about his playing days with Philly.
Thats awesome..
He strikes me as a guy who would have a few stories..
Probably the guy on staff who would be most entertaining to have a few with..
