Yeah, Harbaugh isn't going anywhere unless he leaves of his own accord.

As funny as his failure would be, dude has had no offensive talent to win with. He'll get a QB and he'll be fine.

Shea Patterson eligible next year? They'll contend for the Big Ten title for sure.

Seriously. It's fun to clown on him to make Michigan fans mad but thinking he's actually done badly is insane. They were literal inches from the conference title game last year and this year was always supposed to be a rebuilding season. They're fine.

He is but I don't know if he'll start right away. I think Peters is actually going to be pretty good and he'll have more time in the system. He was only a freshman this year and did fine for the most part.

The main name now appearing as Houston's next OC is noted enemy of Rutgers athletics Drew Mehringer. :barf:

Please take him, Herman is apparently super enamored with him and if we see a midseason demotion of Tim Beck next year we’re gonna get Mehringer calling plays.

Then again Tom Herman knows more than us about football offense so you’ve got to take his endorsement for something. Maybe it would actually be a good get? Somehow?

Exactly. Humans are so dumb if they hear something often enough and don't bother to engage their brains they assume it's got some shred of truth. Alternatively you can think of it as most humans innately believe people wouldn't completely lie to them unprovoked.

There has to be more than just football reasons, because even with the bowl loss and kinda sputtering at the end of the season, he had them trending upward. Arizona was literally picked to be last in the Pac-12 South, and yet he had them competing this year, so if they did fire him over football performance and not something else, the UA Athletic Department is run worse than even ASU's.

Ok here's the scoop

quote:

Today is a difficult day for the University of Arizona but also a day on which we reaffirm our commitment to our values—and to ourselves.

This evening, we informed Head Football Coach Rich Rodriguez that we have terminated his employment effective immediately and will honor the separation terms of his contract. The decision is based on several factors, including the direction and climate of our football program.

Let us share with you what we are able to at this time.

In October 2017, the University’s Office of Institutional Equity retained outside counsel to investigate allegations of sexual harassment against Mr. Rodriguez, after a former employee in the Department of Athletics alleged that Mr. Rodriguez harassed her on multiple occasions. Like all University employees, Mr. Rodriguez is entitled to a fair investigation and due process and at no time has the University believed that Mr. Rodriguez posed any danger to a member of the community.

The law firm of Cohen Dowd Quigley was retained by the Office of Institutional Equity to conduct a comprehensive investigation into the allegations made by the former employee and that investigation began in October. After her initial report to the University in October, the former employee retained counsel and declined multiple requests from the University to participate in the investigation into her allegations. In addition, she was unwilling to turn over communications that she alleged provided support for her allegations and recently filed a notice of a financial claim against Mr. Rodriguez.

The investigation, which concluded on December 28, 2017, found that the original specific harassment allegations against Mr. Rodriguez could not be substantiated based on the evidence and witnesses available to it. However, Arizona Athletics did become aware of information, both before and during the investigation, which caused it to be concerned with the direction and climate of the football program.

I uhh suspect there's something else going on.
