It's true when it comes to the defensive line annnnnd nope pretty much just the defensive line. He will be a very good dline coach or possibly coordinator for someone. The o-line isn't totally his fault. Rich Rod didn't recruit the position at all and there wasn't much for Hoke to work with. MourningView fucked around with this message at 17:10 on Oct 30, 2014 |

Thoguh posted:Iowa (and I assume Big Ten) fans in general have a huge complex about "New Years" bowls, regardless of the fact that there are a bunch of them that have Big Ten tie ins, they're all treated like a giganticly big deal and any non New Years bowls are looked down on. He literally said "new year's bowl" you doofus. I think it's silly to treat them all the same (although ISU fans getting pissy about it even though the Outback Bowl is in fact a bigger deal than, like, the Independence Bowl are equally silly), but that's how he decided to group them. And you bring this up way more often than I have ever seen any Big Ten fan actually brag about it, so I'm not sure who the one with the complex is here.

I mean they should have let him bring Casteel with but once they didn't agree to that he made things worse by being stubborn and refusing to let his defensive coach run something he was more comfortable with. The scheme is fine in theory but trying to run it just for the sake of running it is really dumb. And then he hired Greg Robinson.

Alouicious posted:So if RichRod's awful experience at UM was his own making, what changed between then and now at 'zona? It wasn't all his own making, but the biggest change is that he actually has a coordinator who knows how to run his preferred defensive system (3-3-5) now. In his defense, he did want to bring that coordinator to Michigan with him, but when he wasn't allowed to instead of being flexible on that side of the ball and giving his coordinator the autonomy to run his own system, he kept stubbornly jamming a square peg into a round hole by forcing guys who had no experience with that type of defense to run to. He's undisputedly a very good offensive coach and his offenses at Michigan were always good, but his defenses were horrendous and completely sank the team. His other big mistake at Michigan was the way he recruited on the offensive line, and it's probably still too early to say whether or not he's learned from that at Arizona. I'd never say it was all on RichRod, but this idea that he was doing a great job and got undermined by Michigan at every turn is wrong, I think. Carr and Carr loyalists did hate him from the very start and made things harder than they should have been, but he made a lot of legitimate mistakes on his own. At the time no one really questioned firing him too much, it only looks silly in hindsight because he's done well at Arizona and Michigan hired a much worse coach to replace him.

Regnevelc posted:Yes, but the majority of his career only 1 team went to a Bowl from the Big Ten. This was not true for "the majority" of his career and even if it were he still almost always lost the ones he did make. His career bowl record is 5-12. Deteriorata posted:Yeah, the limited number of bowls meant you had to be really good to even get invited to one. Losing one wasn't a negative because just getting there was impressive. I would think the 71 team that went undefeated in the conference was better and it ended the season by losing to a middling Stanford team. And his best team by ranking was 76, which lost to an admittedly really good USC team. E: apparently I forgot they finished 2nd in 85, but they lost the Big Ten to Iowa (who of course went on to lose to Rose Bowl, although some of that was their running back blatantly throwing the game) so suck it. It's just easier to pretend that those ones were better because you didn't get to watch him lose to Arizona State or something. MourningView fucked around with this message at 18:33 on Dec 5, 2014 |

There weren't really a ton of bowl games back then and the Big Ten opened it up a lot sooner than those two are trying to pretend to protect the reputation of St. Bo.

DJExile posted:Les Miles basically laughed them out of his office a few years ago. What exactly makes them think this time will be different? Sure LSU is one of the best jobs in the sport, has access to the most fertile recruiting grounds in the country, and has a loaded roster that could compete as soon as next year, but Michigan won a lot of games in the 70s. So obviously he desperately wants to go there and start all over in his 60s rebuilding a terrible program. This is a fanbase that genuinely believes the highest paid coach in the NFL might leave his current job because he wore a Michigan hat one time.

Declan MacManus posted:I feel like David Cutcliffe would at least have to consider it because as fun as it is to pretend that Michigan isn't a step up from Duke it kind of is He's super old and has turned down a bunch of jobs that would in theory be a step up because he's comfortable and doesn't want to start over this late in his career. I totally believe that he told them he's not interested. I doubt they got to the point where they made a formal offer because they seem to be waiting on Harbaugh to turn them down for that, but they probably reached out to gage interest and were shot down.

Or anything remotely like that. He's just said that it wasn't completely off the table (as your best buds at FootballScoops reported), and that, from what he heard (and as angry as this makes you for some reason, he actually does have people close to the program who talk to him) a lot of people within the program thought Michigan had a good shot at getting him. He always was clear to point out that other people said otherwise. He was hardly the only person saying it was possible and now it's starting to look like it's actually going to happen so I don't even know how you're still trying to say he was wrong. He never said "it's definitely happening" he just said "there is a decent chance it's happens and people saying otherwise are obviously wrong based on how everyone is behaving". Brian is a dweeb with weird opinions, but he's not just a random blogger it's pretty clear you didn't actual read anything he wrote about this story. You are seriously mad about this whole deal for no good reason.
