Jim Harbaugh is a whack job (even if he can coach football). A match made in media heaven. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hongbit Posted August 10 Share Posted August 10 Every Michigan fan should love this move. It’s them standing up and giving the NCAA the finger. Honestly, it’s impulsive and dumb. It outlines the complete lack of leadership. It’s just not worth it. There’s nothing positive that can help the program from honoring him. There’s plenty of bad that can come while waiting on potential punishments from two different cases. Why purposely agitate the organization that is in the process of forming judgement on the program. This is where adults take a step back and look out for their long term interests over current emotions. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gehringer_2 Posted August 10 Share Posted August 10 Do people know why Warde still has his job? Because the $$ keep rolling in, and what move like this does is keep the $$ rolling in. And that is one thing they care a lot more about then what the NCAA thinks about anything. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hongbit Posted August 10 Share Posted August 10 (edited) No harm waiting until next season to honor Harbaugh after the NCAA has spoken. They obviously want to poke the bear to show off. Hope this isn’t another case of F around and find out but this is exactly how all of those start off. Edited August 10 by Hongbit Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MichiganCardinal Posted August 10 Share Posted August 10 I'm kind of intrigued honestly. No one has ever told the NCAA to **** off like this so publicly. Most schools just kiss the ring, fake an apology, and move on. The NCAA is probably going to try and go nuclear on Michigan at this point.

The NCAA is probably going to try and go nuclear on Michigan at this point. tennessee was involved in the largest pay for play scandal in history. pruitt got a show cause order and the university got a fine. why? because tennessee sued them. miami has sworn testimony of guys buying hookers and crack. they got nothing. ohio state has sworn testimony of fake jobs and boosters spending thousands on fake jobs. urban meyer covered up domestic abuse. they get nothing.e nothing happens. michigan had one "booster" (he wasnt even a booster) giving kids money (who was also giving kids from other schools money) and the school put themselves on probation and begged forgiveness and the ncaa STILL nailed them to the wall. richrod practiced for 15 minutes extra (which everyone does) and the ncaa put michigan on probation. michigan always gets ****ed no matter what they do. **** the ncaa. michigan should build harbaugh a god damn statue.

I see two possibilities - either the $$ commitments tied to not walking away from Harbaugh are large enough that it's more important to them - (and if the NCAA did try to get arbitrarily punitive enough Ono would gladly support taking them into court) or the other even more intriguing though far out possibility is that M has reason to think that the NCAA and it's football authority as currently constituted are living on borrowed time and so are not a long term concern.

Hongbit Posted August 21 Share Posted August 21 10 days away from the Michigan opener and still no new season thread. I’m a little surprised at the lack of interest in Team whatever number they are on especially as defending national champions. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sports_Freak Posted September 28 Share Posted September 28 How to lose a football game...UM 2nd half play calling. 3rd down and 2? Run right into the teeth of their defense and...don't block. 3 plays and out, punt it and give up a TD in 3 plays. Pathetic. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Motor City Sonics Posted September 28 Share Posted September 28 Wow. Michigan's offense is a disaster. Mullings is the only thing saving it. That Minnesota player on the onside kick was not offside, but a Minnesota player touched the ball before 10 yards anyway. Refs are in the bag for Michigan.

gehringer_2 Posted September 28 Share Posted September 28 worst clock management I've even seen. This coaching staff is some kind of clown show for Orji to be snapping the ball with more than 10 seconds left play after play when they are trying to run the clock. Multi-model failure. That means your head coach doesn't have control, your O coordinator isn't getting through to your QB, and your QB is so dumb he doesn't have sense enough to run the clock down before the snap on his own.

Orji's decision making is slow, this throws are late and mostly behind his receivers. But M was outplayed both on offense and defense. They won the game on two short field turnovers. They aren't going to give it back, but just more evidence it's not a very good team. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

buddha Posted September 28 Share Posted September 28 i have a friend who is a big buckeye fan, and they have this conspiracy theory idea that michigan is playing 4 d chess this year. that they know theyre getting sanctioned and are using this as a throwaway year with moore, then they'll fire him when he gets sanctioned by the ncaa and hire a real coach next year. its the kind of stupidity i come to expect from buckeyes and also hilarious in their assumption that michigan's leadership has the ability to play checkers, much less "4 d chess."

LOL - correct. The part about Moore is nonsense, they don't operate that way. OTOH, the idea that there has been a decision to conserve resource commitments in a year when all the tickets are already sold and the future is still is in so much flux is not so crazy. Whether just because of the logistics of Harbaugh's exit or not, they certainly made no big effort on Moore's hire, or at the portal, or NIL splashes. So the idea that the program is in some kind of coast mode this year probably has some of truth to it, but more out of circumstance and their normal financial conservatism than any great strategic plan.
