Sherrone Moore will make history, right?

I'm searching for silver linings here.  Am I correct that Sherrone Moore will be the first African-American head coach on either side of the Game?  I'm pretty sure of that, but I'm so tired that I'm doubting myself a little.  

Anyway, however we got here (assuming that I'm right about where we are), this is something that I have to imagine Moore being aware of.  And it's a pretty cool moment even if the route here has been an ugly one.

Will Moore be the coach or will it rotate like earlier this season.   

Moore (love the Sh*t out of...) or Hart (Little Brother) would have the best post game interviews....

Do not worry. Sherrone Moore, a true Michigan man will coach on Saturdays. We will win the national championship, by channeling Steve Fisher 

We are just getting angrier and angrier....Morre will put the energy to good effect on Saturdays.

I just don’t see it. One game it’s one thing, lots of emotion, rally at a difficult environment against a team without a great offense. 
 

but against your rival? Sure hope they come thru but my doubts have grown tremendously since I’ve heard the news

Nothing would be more glorious than beating Day without our head coach.  That would be the ultimate smack down on that whiny Karen and his fan base who is 90% likely behind the illegal private investigation/hack into UM servers.

Just so that we are clear, there's zero evidence that anyone associated with OSU was involved in hacking the UM servers, which were not associated with athletics anyway.

OSU's private dicks just accessed public records to document a process that wasn't in any way secret (or against any rules).

Sherrone Moore is an outstanding play caller.  I want him doing that.  I want him huddling with the offense when the defense is on the field, not having to pay attention to the defense.

Likewise for Minter.  I want him focused on the defense.

The alternate "head coach" should not be either of those two for those reasons.

He had some struggles against PSU.   Biggest he was forced to multi-task - being a HC and an OC.   Between that and the crowd noise we called what should have been non-essential timeouts.   What I liked was that when a play was about to break down and/or take a penalty he called the TO.   Further, his early game adjustment to their edge rush dominance was brilliant.   Not so much for diagnosing it, but because he recognized it early and made pre-halftime adjustments.   

He's green and was forced into that situation last minute due to absolute Bush-league crap from the B1G and he emerged victorious.   This young man likely has a very bright future as a coach.

Essentially I think Sherrone  is our new coach and he will make history defeating OSU and getting to the national Championship game. My guess to why this happened, is that Harbaugh has decided to head off to the NFL. He probably told the university he was no longer interested in a new contract. If I'm right he will probably allow Sherrone to coach the B1G championship game and the playoffs. Just my guess why this turned out this way.

He's our guy; next man up or whatever.  Not the ideal situation, but he's now had a few HC experiences, and is going to get another before having to step way the F up a week from Saturday.  Team has been prepping this whole year for that game, and I feel confident he's going to give us an A+ effort and a successful result.
