Biff Poggi to Serve As Michigan’s Interim Head Coach During Sherrone Moore’s Two-Game Suspension

157868_h_1.jpg


Michigan head coach Sherrone Moore announced Monday that Biff Poggi will serve as Michigan's interim head coach while Moore serves a self-imposed two-game suspension for his role in the program's sign-stealing scandal.

Poggi is in his third stint at Michigan in 2025. He worked as an analyst in 2016, then became the head coach at Saint Frances Academy (Maryland) from 2017–20. Poggi returned to Ann Arbor as associate head coach from 2021–22 before taking the head job at Charlotte from 2023–24. Poggi returned to Michigan as associate head coach this offseason.

Just sayin': I never heard of this guy (i.e. Biff Poggi) before; but, needless to say with Moore setting "the current head coaching bar", it isn't all that high. Poggi could very easily be an upgrade..... :lol:

Penn State Cult (Joe Knew)

I believe so, but don't remember that specifically. I just remember LJsr massively slow playing this kid, and offering him very late in the process, and barely giving him attention when he wanted to be a Buckeye

Yeah was a shame. Not sure how good he’ll be, but that’s the kind of player they should take if they’re not ponying up the NIL for recruits.

Illinois Fighting Illini (you'll see)

Google AI: The Illini NIL program refers to how the University of Illinois supports it student-athletes in leveraging their Name, Image, and Likeness (NIL) for financial opportunities, primary through endorsements and partnerships. Under the leadership of head coach Bret Bielema, Illinois operates an NFL-style program, utilizing one-year NIL deals to provide a professional-level experience for its athletes. The program faces challenges in funding compared to other power conference schools, with Bielema highlighting a significant resource gap, though Illinois has shown competitive results despite a smaller NIL budget. In May 2025, Coach Bret Bielema stated that the Illinois football program's NIL budget was about $5 million.

Just sayin': Agree, Bert pulled a competitive program out of the dumpster fire he inherited. In addition, operating on a $5M a year NIL budget isn't going to let you compete for the highest ranked athletics. In looking at a typical Illini recruiting class in 24/7 it looks like Bert ends up with just 1 4-Star and 20 TO 25 3-Stars. He then supplements it with some transfers, (and none of the transfers are the "cream of the transfer crop" either) etc.
So he essentially has had the same HC situation at every stop he's worked at

Penn State Cult (Joe Knew)

Wasn’t that the kid that weighed 230 and looked like he needed a couple years to be ready to play?

HC Ryan Day (National Champion)

I get the point he’s trying to make but’s like he’s creating an argument that no one is making just to defeat that argument.

The ‘25 team is a completely different team. Why would they be complacent?

The ‘15 team brought back everyone. Why wouldn’t they get a little complacent?
I hear what you're saying

C Jerry Lucas (National Champ, CBB HOF, NBA HOF)

This one brought tears to my eyes. I was a kid when OSU won the NC with Lucas and crew. Ever since he has been my unquestioned all time sports hero. I once stood next to him with a copy of Sports Illustrated with Lucas on the cover in my hand and couldn't bring myself to ask for his autograph. It was enough to shake his hand.

Glad I lived long enough that I can have my own picture taken next to his statue.

Just sayin': Great move. Bjork finally done something right.....:lol: Ohio State has only won 1 national Championship and Jerry Lucas was the "main player"(i.e. starting 5 of Lucas, Havlicek, Siegfried, Roberts, and Nowell):

undefined


P.S.
1. The recruiting class of Lucas, Nowell, Havlicek, Knight, and Gary Gearhart was probably Ohio State's all time best. They are the only class that won a Natty (and finished runner up twice).
2. Bob Knight is #24

WR Bryson Rodgers (National Champion)

Redshirt freshman Mylan Graham hauled in a 23-yard catch and redshirt sophomore Bryson Rodgers recorded a 21-yard catch and also looked good on punt return with one lengthy jaunt although it was called back due to him (barely?) signaling for a fair catch. Whether he did or didn't signal, the defense didn't look like it thought a fair catch was called and Rodgers decisively moved upfield in a way no punt returner has yet for OSU early this season.
