Umbig,

Presumably you were on the Harbaugh train in 2015/2016.  I'd be curious to hear when you got off and why?  And do you think something changed with Harbaugh post the OSU game in 2016, like so many others speculate?  I am NOT criticizing your viewpoint at all...I think a lot of people are in that camp.  I'm more just curious what did it for you and if you think something changed after 2016.

Do you have any inside info on what went wrong with Harbaugh. I could see 2017 being the recruiting hole left by Hokes last two seasons but I thought that was corrected in 2018-19. I think Harbaugh was not on top of recruiting like he should have been. I was questioning taking a lot of long and lanky 3 star DB, the kind Brown wanted to fit his single coverage schemes.

You aren’t the only one! There have been glaring signs for a long time no one wanted to see. 
 

Remember when people thought sitting there watching a traffic cop for hours was some sign of genius. Hahahahaha just turns out he didn’t know what he was doing sitting there

Hi - Since you singled me out, and I happened to see it, I’ll bite.  You make a lot of assumptions about me, which is fine.  I’m not a “Harbaugh Lover”, in fact, he wouldn’t have been my first choice, but I also don’t appreciate the way you interact with the world which is why we’ve had friction.  My support for him, like many of us, has eroded over time.  It’s very similar to my support level for you.  
 

Admittedly, I used to support you as well.  I thought you generally were well measured, appreciated your supplying some info that you’d get, and also appreciated the idea that you had info that you didn’t think should be shared.  My support started to erode when you resorted to constant personal attacks not just toward Harbaugh, but to players (especially this reason) and posters on here.  
 

Whatever change occurred in your life, if there was one, that made you this way I am sincerely sorry that it happened.  Seems like it’s about more than just a game played by 18-22 year olds that’s bothering you.  Regardless, I’d suggest you evaluate the way you deal with people, possibly for your own good, because drinking poison expecting someone else to get sick doesn’t really work.

Everyone use to say 2021 was going to be our year since we have OSU at home and Dylan was going to have a full season under his belt. Well, Dylan is gone, Harbaugh and his staff cannot coach and in 2021 at best Harbaugh will have another 9-3 season or may be worse if Milton starts over McCarthy. I've yet to see a good Michigan QB coached by Harbaugh and his staff.

This season is going a lot like Hoke's last season but a lot worse. Harbaugh needs to go and if the AD does not fire his ass, I'll never be going to another Michigan game!

With the exception of the 2019 Penn State and 2020 Minnesota games, every time we get punched in the mouth, the team gives up. That's on coaching, these kids have been playing competitive sports their entire life, they just didn't stop caring about winning.

All I can say is that Harbaugh should officially be on the coaches hot seat. I see may be 1 or 2 more wins for a 2 or 3 win season. Pathetic for his 6th season.

I don't know why anyone would DV you because that is the truth. UM is currently 1-2 with 5 games left against the following: Wisconsin, @Rutgers, PSU, Maryland and @OSU. The only team in this list that we would have a chance to beat right now is Rutgers and even that is debatable. 

I see UM going 2-6 or 3-5 at best this season without any changes.
