You'll see shortly but I know someone on the team and Harbaugh just told them.

-It's the week of exams

-It's the height of the respiratory illness season

-We're dealing with significant Covid issues as a team

-We're 2-4

-We have no functional, healthy quarterbacks

-The Big Ten screwed us in the crossover matchup

Yes, pull the plug on this season.

Harbaugh and Manuel should be escorted out of the building TODAY.    Embarrassing.   Getting humiliated is one thing.............Ducking games is another.    This is lower than Rich Rod and lower than Hoke.  

The UCLA of the Midwest now.   Were you even alive the last time UCLA was relevant?

Well, that was an amazing season....anyone have one of those Men in Black erase memory devices I could borrow so I can forget the 2020 Michigan season ever occurred.

Remember when RR was considered the worst coach in Michigan history, after finishing the season with only 3 wins?     Good times......

 

sure, the season was abbreviated and cut short, but who were we really going to beat if we played them all?

no way.

2008 was rough no doubt.  But only delusional die hards that weren't watching closely thought michigan was going to be even close to 500 that year.  Installing (some might say recklessly cramming) a brand new offense into a program with almost 0 personal recruited for or able to run it?  Sure we all hoped the defense would carry them for a while til they figured it out.  
Only blue hairs squalling about that crazy mexican rodriguez thought michigan was going to be anything but on very shaky ground that season.
even then, with all rich rods screw-ups you could see the team learning, buying in, and there was an excitement for the possibilities that the future held.

There is no momentum for 2021 other than improved health; and in case you're forgetting, there wasn't much of any at the end of last year either.

These thoughts came to mind:                             #1 There really is a God.                                   #2. This is a large index finger to BTN for even scheduling this matchup to help Iowa get a better money bowl game.                                    #3 Warde, get off your fat ass and do something NOW about the coaching situation either way.
