Part of the equation too is who will be making the decision. It's probably fair to say Warde would not hire another Harbaugh. I think the general alumni/donor base would be fine with a Harbaugh, because Harbaughs are associated with winning. If we are replacing a non-winner, winning will be the most important characteristic of a hire. But who knows. Maybe Sherrone shocks the world and beats OSU in Columbus. That would save the season for him. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The size and options of the grad programs at Ann Arbor have been a point of leverage for bringing in graduate O linemen with remaining eligibility. And that's even the kind of thing that is largely coach or NIL dependent, these are guys who know they are not going to be playing on Sunday - they are actually there to get their degrees, but know that at 24/5 they can get their tuition paid and still play a little winning FB against 21/22 yr olds.

Hongbit Posted October 22 Share Posted October 22 Michigan needs to get to 6-6 to qualify for a bowl game so they can self-impose a bowl ban. That will definitely lessen any potential NCAA punishments in the future. They don’t want to play in a garbage bowl game anyway so it’s a perfect situation if they can take advantage. The other issue is they have 4 guys that still show up in mock drafts as 1st rounders next year. Do any of them shut it down early as is the new way for guys in this situation? Ohio St. does give them something to play for but all these guys could skip and leave saying they never lost to Ohio State. This all means that MSU is an absolute must win for more than just bragging rights. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RedTeamGo! Posted October 22 Share Posted October 22 2 hours ago, buddha said: what do you mean? He left hurt last game, right? haven’t heard what’s up with him. hongbit mentioned players with high draft grades potentially leaving early now that the season is effectively over (outside of trying to beat OSU for a 4th time in a row). I was curious if there were any rumblings of Johnson shutting it down. He’s a legacy, though, so I would be surprised, but I certainly couldn’t blame the young man for thinking about his future and making a business decision.

Mr.TaterSalad Posted Sunday at 12:30 AM Share Posted Sunday at 12:30 AM 1 yard rushing lol. Michigan has the worst offense in America for a major school. It's really amazing how bad this offense is. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
