Jim Not Even In The Coversation For NC
As a person that goes to every game, for decades. And don't sell tickets to make $5 or stand on the corner looking for a cheap date. Kinda beneath a UM Grad.
How about just a Big 14 Championship for the money. Year what ... 6.. Problem is we can't do any better.
It's all just speculation, and about as important as pre-season rankings. None of that matters compared to how the season actually goes.
Who hurt you?
You are deluding yourself if you think he and Michigan should be. There are a lot of unknowns going into this season, if there is one, and a history of falling apart towards the last part of the season when better teams expose Michigan's weaknesses.
"history of falling apart" AKA the combination of a small sample size + the fact that we play the best team in the country as our final regular season game every year
Well win the game
Given his sterling 5 year track I am shocked, shocked I said.
"Quit drinking and go to bed"
Well, it has been written at 247sports.com, so it must be so.
This guy. I have a list of ppl who got all whiny during covid 19 shelter in place, hypothesized they were the same who were promoting this type of thinking. Small sample size but so far I'm right.
its a sad day when you reflect back to days gone by and actually wish the dumb OPs were about gravy
Can't win a Natty unless you beat Ohio State. He deserves to not be on this list for that purpose alone.
The only coaches on that list, IMO, that *might* be better then Jim are Cristobal, Mullen, And Riley. There’s not another name on that list that wouldn’t make me vomit if they were considered to be the HC at UM.
Not surprising.
Michigan is 9-3 at best, 7-5 at worst.
I’m sort of optimistic about this season. Sure there are holes, but If DMC or JM emerge, I really like our speed in space skill players and I think Warriner will have a solid line. Smith and Hinton must break out, and our secondary has new guys, but th LB core is going to be exciting. Brown has done more with less in the past. I’m up for a year where we exceed expectations.
It's an opinion article lmfao
This is what happens when you recruit like Iowa State.
We should fire Harbaugh and replace him with a modern coach like PJ Fleck.
Or Brett Beilema.
I really like PJ Fleck too...
But...Bret Beilema??? What about Bielema makes you think he's a "modern" coach? Or even worth pursuing for that matter? The dude totally tanked at Arkansas.
Why should he be? He's beaten everyone that allows Michigan to get back to being a good, occasionally great program. But he hasn't beaten the one team that gets you from great to elite. I know that's kind of a recurring joke at this point, all of the "we can't do X or Y until we beat OSU," but you want to be taken seriously as a national title contender? Fine. Go beat OSU.
I think the team could be pretty good this year. They can absolutely beat the first 11 opponents on their schedule, and if McCaffery turns into a great QB then who knows what could happen. But as far as I'm concerned, the final game of the regular season is an automatic loss until Michigan proves otherwise on the field.
We were 9-4 last season and I don't think very many people expect that the team will be better in 2020 than they were in 2019. So yeah, a Natty this coming season seems very very unlikely.
THANK YOU MGOBLOG...
In these dire times, you've been the source of much laughter...
PS. EDIT: "It's kinda beneath a UM grad".... well hey as long as you're down there, feel free Oral-B
-Hopkins Grad
Wait. I thought this was the corona virus board.
Why are you posting nonsense about Michigan football?
not really surprised by the list...
We don't even know who the starting QB is and are replacing 4 OLinemen... not to mention playing at OSU
Could Michigan shock the world? Sure, but until you see them on the field, I don't see anything that would lead me to be believe that he should be on the list. I would expect an out of region columnist to even know less about the two deep
Franklin at #2 seems high, but not outrageous he's on the list.
