JH Status
Business as usual at Schem.
Was told today that getting the extension and raises done before Bloody Monday was the plan.
Another person, whom was recently hired ;) has been told nothing other than ONWARD. (BTW he and the staff love the TE they offered yesterday from the 2025 class) The recruiting department and few staffers working for the directors are shuffling around their responsibilities and making NIL a major focus. Much more to come, but recruiting has probably 3-4 more people and extra resources being made available.
Not sure if it's been reported but it looks like RO is taking a promotion, unless he takes the other job offer (I believe he would only leave if coach leaves)..
Lastly, sounds like JH has told people close to him (BTW this would not be ToddA-that guy..) that he would consider the NFL again in the right situation, I believe even WM knows this.
IMO there is only one guy to hire (if we are talking legitimate options) if JH were to leave this year, LF.
Cheers

Third base.
January 8th, 2022 at 4:34 PM ^
Third base has been moved to first? So what's on third?
January 8th, 2022 at 4:42 PM ^
Ryan Day.
January 8th, 2022 at 4:51 PM ^
LOL
Very good one!!
January 8th, 2022 at 5:09 PM ^
That was fantastic, well done.
January 8th, 2022 at 5:41 PM ^
Third base first will get you canceled. You gotta work up to that.
January 8th, 2022 at 4:36 PM ^
Was it a walk, hit by pitch or a base hit to LF?
January 8th, 2022 at 4:12 PM ^
Lou Ferrigno?
January 8th, 2022 at 4:14 PM ^
Ferrigno is my guess.
January 8th, 2022 at 4:17 PM ^
That would be incredible.
January 8th, 2022 at 4:38 PM ^
What you did, yes!
January 8th, 2022 at 4:22 PM ^
Sell this to me as an NFT, and I will pay you a million dollars.
January 8th, 2022 at 5:16 PM ^
Save it for the recruits man
January 8th, 2022 at 5:25 PM ^
I mean, if the fart in a jar lady can get $200K, why not?
January 8th, 2022 at 8:06 PM ^
Yeah, but I read yesterday that she crapped out and couldn't fill all her odors. Shitty way to shart her paying customers!
January 8th, 2022 at 8:31 PM ^
This is way too good of a comment to be buried this far in a thread.
January 8th, 2022 at 4:13 PM ^
I love your posts Ghost I just wish I was one of the cool guys who knew all the abbreviations stood for.
Once you move past JH & WM it's all secret code to me.
January 8th, 2022 at 4:13 PM ^
I too was impressed by Leon Franklin's work as a walk on runninback but head coach is moving WAY up the depth chart. Bold!
January 8th, 2022 at 4:17 PM ^
January 8th, 2022 at 4:18 PM ^
Getting into Michael Barrett type promotions there.
January 8th, 2022 at 8:27 PM ^
Of course Leon Franklin will only be the puppet HC while our Michigan Football Shadow Emperor Michael Barrett really pulls the strings.
January 8th, 2022 at 11:07 PM ^
See, you get it.....
January 8th, 2022 at 4:18 PM ^
Maybe he's showing HC potential very early.
January 8th, 2022 at 4:15 PM ^
RO is Ryan Osborne?
January 8th, 2022 at 6:31 PM ^
No, it's reverse osmosis.
January 8th, 2022 at 4:17 PM ^
I'm ok with initials being used in replies, one can look back to the OP and make the connection, but the OP should always use full names the first time a person is mentioned. Not everyone knows who someone is by initials.
January 8th, 2022 at 4:38 PM ^
Yeah but the OP is a ghost. Can't blame them for abbreviations - type too much and the keyboard gets gunked up with ectoplasm.
January 8th, 2022 at 4:55 PM ^
who you gonna call?
January 8th, 2022 at 4:17 PM ^
Fickell is the new Campbell.
January 8th, 2022 at 4:20 PM ^
LF is Einhorn!
January 8th, 2022 at 4:41 PM ^
Einhorn is LF!
January 8th, 2022 at 4:21 PM ^
Except Fickell is a much more proven Coach and also isn’t a realistic option.
January 8th, 2022 at 4:45 PM ^
You keep saying he's an unrealistic option.
Why?
January 8th, 2022 at 4:52 PM ^
He is an Ohio State guy through and through. He hates Michigan.
January 8th, 2022 at 5:16 PM ^
Says who? You state this as if it’s a known fact! It’s pure speculation by you. Green is the only color these coaches see. If the price is right, Fickell will coach here.
January 8th, 2022 at 8:37 PM ^
WWRob - green isn’t the only color these coaches see. Look no further than JH for proof.
That said, I agree WE don’t know whether LF would have interest in M job. There aren’t that many big time jobs available.
On tHe other hand maybe LF sill be happy in Cinci for a long time. It’s not ALWAYS about making more money.
January 8th, 2022 at 5:20 PM ^
All the Ohio guys hate Michigan until they go to Michigan and realize Michigan is better.
January 8th, 2022 at 6:48 PM ^
Gary Moeller was an OSU captain fergodsake.
January 8th, 2022 at 4:49 PM ^
How is Fickell a much more proven coach? How has Cincy played and beaten under Fickell other than ND this year? Their schedule has been weak and he had done a good job beating nobodys. He was what 6-6 when he was the interim coach at THEEEEEE ohio, and with all that talent???
January 8th, 2022 at 4:57 PM ^
Well, he has been to a New Year’s bowl and went to the CFP with Cincinnati while Campbell is mired in mediocrity at ISU. He can’t even beat Iowa.
January 8th, 2022 at 5:19 PM ^
He went to the CFP because of all the media hype behind their undefeated record, while playing ONLY ONE legit team. That is why they got in.
January 8th, 2022 at 5:23 PM ^
Honestly if you compared Cincy’s performance against Bama, to ours against Georgia on NYE. I thought the Bearcats gave a much better effort.
January 8th, 2022 at 4:59 PM ^
The first part is true for pretty much any coaching candidate. They come from smaller schools or are coordinators.
Then you’re going to use an interim season 10 years ago to judge him? As if he hasn’t made strides in that time and become a better coach?
January 8th, 2022 at 5:04 PM ^
Fickell’s records at Cincinnati: 4-8, 11-2,11-3, 9-1, and 13-1. The guy is a fantastic coach. Unfortunately he is dyed in the wool Buckeye. He isn’t a serious option for Michigan.
January 8th, 2022 at 4:23 PM ^
It's like comparing Campbell to Progresso. Similar but one is clearly better. (I assume as I am not a soup sommelier)
January 8th, 2022 at 4:35 PM ^
Both are still nasty though. Spend a little extra and get the Wolfgang Puck soup.
January 8th, 2022 at 11:48 PM ^
Tell me more about this soup, forget this coaching drama!
January 8th, 2022 at 4:35 PM ^
Fickell is the new Campbell while Campbell is the old Progresso.
January 8th, 2022 at 5:38 PM ^
But who's on first?
