Iowa Snowflakes - The Coaching

No a hoke team would've found a way to lose it at the end.

You don’t say?
October 5th, 2019 at 3:32 PM ^
Turtled after a 10-0 lead. Sickening and won't get it done against better teams
October 5th, 2019 at 3:33 PM ^
Don Brown proved me wrong today. I give him credit for adjusting after that 3rd and 22.
Harbaugh thought passing to Crabtree instead of Moss in the last play of the Super Bowl was a good idea. Tarik DPJ and Nico should really consider transferring.
Milton and Dylan should be given a chance to prove themselves against Illinois.
We wanted this game to alleviate our fears. This did nothing on that front. Defense can’t win you 10 games by themselves.
October 5th, 2019 at 4:08 PM ^
Nico and DPJ are off to the NFL after this year, why would they stick around to have someone not throw the ball to them? I look forward to Nico going in the 5th round or something and announcers next year wondering why he was so good despite not putting up much numbers in college...

Ask the Trent Dilfer Baltimore Ravens
October 5th, 2019 at 3:33 PM ^
A win's a win. I'll take it and be happy. No reason to be miserable.
October 5th, 2019 at 4:02 PM ^
A win's a win--
But a win of comical ineptitude does not bode well.
On the plus side, both the Polyanna and Chicken Little segments of the fan base can stop worrying about Gattis being snatched away after a single tremendous season at Michigan.
October 5th, 2019 at 3:33 PM ^
Get Harbaugh the fuck out of here. Worst fucking coach in the nation. A mental case who has done nothing of note.
October 5th, 2019 at 3:39 PM ^
Yes please.
The defense played their asses off for each other. Harbaugh is a cancer. He's not the same guy at all.
October 5th, 2019 at 5:37 PM ^
Keep drinking
October 5th, 2019 at 3:33 PM ^
Terrible...
October 5th, 2019 at 3:33 PM ^
We're a slightly better version of Iowa, yippie. Both coaches are wayyyy overpaid
October 5th, 2019 at 4:20 PM ^
The difference is Ferentz fields better teams compared to their talent level than Michigan does. Ferentz does with 3* guys what we do with 4
October 5th, 2019 at 7:28 PM ^
Also on occasion Ferentz wins games he’s not favored in.
October 5th, 2019 at 9:15 PM ^
Yep. Ferentz usually wins 1-2 games a year he has no business winning. Michigan hasn’t won a game it wasn’t supposed to win in over 10 years. Last one was probably the ‘08 Wisconsin game.
Michigan loses every game it’s supposed to lose, and usually loses one, maybe two games a year it has no business losing. That’s the difference.
October 5th, 2019 at 10:08 PM ^
UM is really Tennessee
October 5th, 2019 at 3:33 PM ^
Gattis is a fucking fraud and needs to be fired today.
October 5th, 2019 at 3:35 PM ^
I just don't know how many times they need to see a three yard plow up the gut, versus three quick out patterns to their big receivers which netted them 50 yards.
October 5th, 2019 at 4:14 PM ^
plus infinity if I could
October 5th, 2019 at 7:13 PM ^
I don't know either, but we are clearly very short of that number now.
October 5th, 2019 at 3:35 PM ^
I thought a win would be enough for me to step off the ledge, but man...this offense would be bad in 1919
October 5th, 2019 at 3:36 PM ^
It was and has been , Hoke level coaching .
October 5th, 2019 at 3:36 PM ^
Figure the damn offense out and play whoever is needed to make that offense run well.
October 6th, 2019 at 8:57 AM ^
From your mustache to my ears.
October 5th, 2019 at 3:36 PM ^

October 5th, 2019 at 3:36 PM ^
I refuse to believe this is the best available coaching staff to this program right now if it decides to make a change. Refuse.
October 5th, 2019 at 3:37 PM ^
Don Brown makes mistakes, sometimes he gets way to exotic for what is needed and deserves criticism. Today is not one of those days. The last four years, our offense has gassed our defense time and time again.
October 5th, 2019 at 3:37 PM ^
Congratulations to the coaches for setting an all time college football standard.
The least satisfying win in CFB history where you get 8 sacks and give up 1 net yard rushing.
October 5th, 2019 at 5:16 PM ^
And +3 in turnovers.
October 5th, 2019 at 3:38 PM ^
Complain, pick apart everything, but I don’t care right now. A win is important and Iowa always drags teams into this type of game.
I would love to see more offense, but this is what Harbaugh thinks is football. It is t what many people want, and I get that, but he gets into the coach to win trap instead of the bury the other team and win. The play calls are boring. That’s in part to bad playcalling, and part to just coaching to win.
October 5th, 2019 at 7:32 PM ^
Michigan doesn’t have to be dragged into the sludgefart. They dive headfirst into the sludgefart.
October 5th, 2019 at 3:38 PM ^
I never thought the day would come where Michigan would get Jimmy F'ing Ballgame coaching Big Blue and we'd see a Detroit Lions team that has more upside.
I'm glad we beat Iowa but that was the laziest game on offense I've ever seen. Can someone please tell me what our identity on offense is?
October 5th, 2019 at 5:25 PM ^
What does Kentucky have to do with this?
October 5th, 2019 at 3:39 PM ^
Well at least we don’t have to worry about Gattis leaving for a head coaching job
October 5th, 2019 at 3:49 PM ^
The worst part of that is he's still better than Drevno. How telling is that?
October 5th, 2019 at 4:40 PM ^
Yet Drevno is kinda doing well at USC
October 5th, 2019 at 5:29 PM ^
was Drevno even calling plays? I thought it was more of just a title to make more money. I thought Drevno was just good for overseeing a porous offensive line
October 5th, 2019 at 7:21 PM ^
My question is, what happened to our OL? Weren't they building something on from last year? This has been a major regression. Patterson isn't what we hoped he'd be but the OL hasn't done him any favors. This is ridiculous
October 5th, 2019 at 3:40 PM ^
Felt like I was watching Harbaugh and Ferentz in the biggest turtle fight ever.
October 5th, 2019 at 3:40 PM ^
We held Iowa to 3 points because the Defense played championship football. Still believe in our receivers but why is the passing game not working like it should ? When it does, we can run the ball effectively too.
Big win though. Fork in the road stuff.
October 5th, 2019 at 3:41 PM ^
Only caught parts of game: one part — M up 10-3, late, back to back incompletions into end zone — second one especially galling: Nico is short & the jump ball is to Bell?!?! Seems peewee league to know that goes to one of your tall guys. Wow, we really seem to have struck out on OC
October 5th, 2019 at 3:57 PM ^
This is very common for us this season; Bell sees a lot of jump balls and fades. I know he’s super athletic and they report that he crushes that shit in practice, but I was extremely disappointed in the idea of taking a shot there. It was 2nd and 7 I think? Cut the first down in half. Run a tunnel screen or something to get you someone in space for what should be a certain couple yards and maybe a first down. I’m not crazy about being up by a score and taking 2nd and medium to try and take a shot from 15 yards out. Get your first down yardage, get to “goal to go” and get your points from there
October 5th, 2019 at 3:41 PM ^
Patterson has regressed. Speight regressed. Peters regressed to 4th string.
Our offensive line has regressed. "You have to be able to get push when it's five on five."
Our WR's seem seldom to be actually open. As pointed out several times, Iowa's safeties were pressing our WR's because our route schemes never went past intermediate routes. As pointed out several times, "I can't understand why M isn't taking advantage of these tall WR's downfield."
Neither can anyone else in the entire world except Jim Harbaugh.
Jim Harbaugh himself has regressed and isn't the coach he was.
A bright note: Don Brown adjusted well and did a great job.
Despite that, there is little reason to believe in the rest of this season.
October 5th, 2019 at 7:56 PM ^
I think I just got a sneak peek at Brian's game recap.
Well said Michigan1987. That is exactly right.....as mind-numbingly depressing as it might be.
October 5th, 2019 at 3:42 PM ^
Shit show. Disappointing for sure.
Boat raced by PSU & OSU
MSU game could be a M00M game
October 5th, 2019 at 8:44 PM ^
IT'S MOORES!!!!!
October 5th, 2019 at 3:42 PM ^
Offense still a clusterfuck across the board, poor coaching. The decision to take a delay of game in the punt into the wind was bewildering. I’d give the coaches outside of Brown a C- or D+
