I am conflicted. On the one hand I think it is stupid to make fun of how a fanbase chooses to enjoy their team.


On the other, I really enjoy it when people poke fun at Old Man D.

So do I join in on the pic-a-nic basket jokes or not?

Michigan doesn't even play organ music at their hockey games! We've got a 90 piece band!

They play Kesha and this:

Michigan is never going to be good again (just like every other big ten team), but congratulations on maybe finding someone to lead you to the capital one bowl.

I disagree, I think Michigan will be good once more when there is not a lummox head coach in charge of them.

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.

Is there anything Big Ten fans actually brag about? We're all pretty much eye-deep in self loathing.

It seems to have originated with the current players as something of an inside joke. Brandon got wind of it and began using it as a rallying cry to get the former players on his side and try to save his job.

It's all kind of dumb.


Vincent Smith of "That Clowney GIF" fame was on MGoBlog's board saying this exact thing the other day. Obviously there's going to be some bunker mentality but from what Smith was saying it was never meant to be derogatory when they started.

Footballscoop, a site I have never heard of, is claiming Harbaugh is "not interested" and told Michigan so.

This got an actual response from MGoBlog's Brian Cook, who is claiming multiple sources have talked to Harbaugh and he has shown interest.

In actual coach-chat, do you guys see yourself going after a Schiano, or an Addazio to hold onto that run-first hard-nosed stuff, or do you anticipate a shift in offensive philosophy to go after someone that runs a spread or something?

I think I'm more intrigued by your coaching search than I was mine. So much at stake, really. As much as anyone, you guys are at a real crossroads. The wrong hire will probably keep you guys just a cockhair above .500 for the next 10-15.


Under no circumstances should Michigan consider, much less hire, Greg Schiano.

I hope Michigan is gauging the interest of many coaches, so as to not be caught with their dick in their hand AGAIN and end up with another Brady Hoke.


Obviously, unless Harbaugh comes out before the 28th and shoots the whole thing down publicly, we're all going to have to wait until then to see who Michigan goes with.

The Cutcliffe story is funny, but Gil Brandt is an 81 year old man who hasn't had a connection to anyone or anything in 25 years.

Maybe the headhunting firm Michigan hired was told "no thanks" by Cutcliffe but that is not the same as "Michigan offered and he said no."

Everyone I know who has played for or worked for Michigan has basically thrown their hands in the air and gone "I have no loving clue" but I'm glad AsInHowe has such great sources that literally nobody else does. Also I hope they're the same ones that told you Nussmeier was going to be the interim.

Just for my own curiosity, and also because you have taken the most glee from this coaching search, how extensive is your list of "everyone?"

Please pass this along to Schlissel. Thanks.

The alumni association hosed up my membership and I had two UMIDs for a while. It took like 5 phone calls to get them to scrap the extra one.
