"He just showed us a couple of adjustments he thought would help," Nesbitt said last summer. "He just told us that if we settled down and executed the offense just a little bit better, we'd be fine."

In the span of just over seven minutes in the third quarter, Georgia Tech wiped out the deficit and took a 35-28 lead. Since then Johnson has earned a reputation as the King of Adjustments.

Well, Michigan fans can have comfort in knowing they aren't the only ones suffering from dramatic coaching changes:

RR Defenses at WVU

Thought I'd go back and look at each year and some of the box scores & rankings. I would say that if you throw out Carr's 06 team as an outlier, than you probably should do the same for WVU's 07 season, which was much more consistent in being "good" than most defenses under RR's reign.


  • 07 was a very good year statistically.
    • They held teams to 14-24 pts, with few exceptions (LVille 31, OU 28)

  • 06 wasn't great. 62nd nationally.
    • Gave up 44, 39, 35 (to a backup QB)

  • 05 was ranked 15th because of awful competition.
    • Against good offenses: 44 LVille.
    • Against top OOC opponents: 34 VT, 35 UGA. (both had good not great O)
    • Against the 2 other I-AA teams: 7, 15
    • Against the 7 other I-A teams:7, 19, 14, 13, 0, 13, 13
      • The total off rankings of those 7: 115, 56, 44, 94, 96, 85, 79.

  • 04 was 37th, but had some rough patches.
    • 37 for BC (47th), 31 for FSU (61st), 30 for Rutgers (40th).
    • Decent year (including 19 vs VT), but they also skipped #1 O Louisville.

  • 03 was 73rd. Not a great year.
    • Maryland beat them 41-7 in bowl, and 34-7 in season.
    • Usually gave up about 20-30 pts in the final 9 games.

  • 02 was 33nd.
    • Gave up 34 to Wisky (83nd), 32 to Cinci (33rd), 48 to MD (41st), 40 to DaU (6th), 48 to UVA (80th).

  • 01 was 40th. ESPN doesn't go back that far.

Yeesh.. You realize WVU was top 10 nationally in defense under RR? I cant remember the last time Michigan was sans the 2006 season when we had something like 8 nfl kids on our roster.

Don't try to argue statistics with them. To them, everything is superficial. Doesn't matter if they stacked numbers against horrible offenses. I've had this argument with them and just gave up. It's like arguing with a retarded orangutan.

The amount of records being set/broken against DickRod's m*ch*g*n is simply staggering.

I can't believe that EVERYONE is missing the point.

RR wants to rebuild the Michigan football program.

Problem is, when he got there it wasn't really broke.

This "process" he keeps referring to is a two step process. Step one is going nicely.

Hey now, it WAS broken. Don't you remember? Carr was their coach before St. Richie, so it just HAD to be broken because Lloyd is such an evil, evil man. HE LEFT THE CUPBOARD BARE!1!!11! OH THE HORROR!1!! EVIL!!!11!!
