So you are saying there is a chance for my dream combo of Les Miles as HC, Brett Favre as OC?

It might be the only time we will be able to see an interception on a spike on 4th and 1.

I share this dream, brother.

According to Chris Mortensen, Charlie Weiss didn't get along with Haley (duh). But he also prefers to coach college, and figures if he can establish success in the SEC, he can get another job. And his dream job is: South Carolina

I thought ND was his dream job

You know those jokes about "Notre Dame, returning to glory since 1993"? That's our future.

Future DVD Titles: "Chasing Indiana" "Glory at the TicketCity Bowl" "Season of the Little Brown Jug" "Matching Schembechler Amount of National Titles in One Year!"

Yeah, UConn will never be a football school. They've come a long way, but the fan support just isn't there.

That's what makes me think they'd give someone like Rich Rod a shot. He crashed in burned at U-M, but he could still kick ass in the Big East. His system works extremely well in it.
You could say the sane thing about Louisville, but then we hired the pipe, John l smith, petrino and now Strong. By the late 90s, early 2000's UL had turned into a football school, even with several great ball teams, football was the talk of the town until march hit.

Never happen. But I'm hoping Pitt will be desperate enough to hire him. Someone has to!

Kinda mirror my thoughts. Based on your previously mentioned tier system, at most a tier 2 school would hire him, but he would have to go through a lot to get to the job.

Harbaugh's gone. In the meantime, all of the recruits have no idea what's going on. Granted, they're RR recruits so they aren't very good, but this class is totally fucked.
The chances probably aren't good, but I would still exercise caution. A few days ago it was reported that Harbaugh had foreclosed the idea of going back to Stanford; it was either Michigan or the NFL. The next day Michigan was out, and Stanford was back in the picture. Never underestimate the media's ability to report any rumor. Still, it does seem like Michigan has fallen out of favor, while the NFL is becoming more likely.

Never forget: in 2007, according to the media, Les Miles had agreed to a deal with Michigan. The truth? Miles and the Michigan AD never even spoke.

Well Brandon isn't the smartest guy. He left a multimillion dollar job to one which is a few hundred grand a year. Also is it a coincidence that dominos started making tons more money after he left?
Not unless he was keeping Dominoes from changing their sauce recipe.

That had to hurt so much to type.
it hurt to read, so I'm sure any man who enjoys Michigan football felt great pain thinking about it, typing it, putting a period at the end, moving the mouse of the submit button, and pressing.

What?! Why?
Also why do people keep hiring this asshole?

I, for one, love the idea of Weiss at South Carolina.
If not for Willingham getting canned at ND and Holtz being friends with Spurrier, that likely would have been the case in 2005.

That's wishful thinking. Even ND at their lowest wouldn't lose to App State and Toledo.

I don't think you understand what he means when he says Michigan is turning into Notre Dame.
 
We may have just taken Manny Diaz off of Mississippi State's hands.

Sources: Manny Diaz to Texas

Manny Diaz will accept the job as Texas Longhorn defensive coordinator as early as Wednesday, sources close to Longhorn football has confirmed.

Diaz spent the 2010 season running the Mississippi State defense. MSU (9-4) improved from being ranked 71st in scoring defense last season to 22nd this year. Its SEC ranking went from 11th to third. The Bulldogs also improved under Diaz against the run, going from 62nd nationally to 17th.

MSU shut down a dangerous Michigan offense in the Gator Bowl, routing the Wolverines, 52-14. Diaz replaces Will Muschamp who left UT to become the head coach at Florida.

Prior to his arrival at MSU, Diaz was the defensive coordinator at Middle Tennessee. Before that he coached at NC State and Florida State after working at ESPN as a production assistant in the mid-90s.

I do. I'm saying "turning into Notre Dame" is an improvement from where they are at. That's how precipitous this fall has been.

For what it's worth, Ohio State now has more BCS wins than any other program, and an overall BCS record of 6-3.

Yes, we fucked up in epic fashion in two of the three losses, but I'm pretty damn proud of that record.

USC has a BCS record of 6-1.

"Turning into Notre Dame" implies sustained failure across multiple coaches. Losing to App St. might have been embarrassing, but Michigan still beat Florida in a bowl that year. The Rich Rodriguez "era" has been the only real pronounced downturn. The real point of the comment, therefore, is to say that Michigan, rather than hiring a coach to revitilize the program, might fuck this up and pick a coach who will doom the program to years of failed coaches like Notre Dame.

Another way to look at it is look what Texas became between the mid 80s to late 90s.

No, beating ND (twice!) was the one thing RR accomplished. Turning into Notre Dame means you get on a coaching carousel and your program is forever unstable and mediocre. It's mediocrity for a specific reason, not just general badness.
 
SEC fans, on the scale between "Losing Colt on the First Drive" to "4th and National Championship," how happy should I be with Manny Diaz?

I thought we got Florida's ex DC?

No, he and Randy Shannon were just rumors and hearsay surrounding Belmont. This is the first one I have seen with both sources from Texas and MSU.

Its really easy to set up when the usual home team to the stadium has been since preseason.
 
Too bad the University of Phoenix doesn't have a football team. They have a class size of 533,000 students you would think they would be able to find some talent in there
