dang, Bishop and Rothman spent the entire first hour of their show today discussing Michigan's problems and even took phone calls from Michigan fans living in Columbus. When was the last time that happened?

@WolverineMike would you say there's a total melt down going on or is there still a significant portion with hope for this year?
from what you're hearing and seeing, what are the chances Hoke makes it past this year?
thanks Mike
PS I'll delete any bashing of Mike's response..

I was 12, and was in my second season of being an Ohio State football fan. We had come off the 1968 national title and we flat pounding everyone on the schedule and were big favorites against Michigan. Woody said that was his best team ever. For Michigan to ruin that season and a second straight national title for us is unforgivable.

OSUK
Sometimes lucid, mostly confused
I remember watching some documentary where Bo related that a few months after that game he stopped in to see Woody. Bo said that Woody told him, "Damn you Bo. You will never win a bigger game than that one." Bo added, "The Old Man was right. I never did."
As for Hoke, he is just a couple more losses away from being a dead coach walking, and when that happens you will see 30K not showing up in the Big House, and he will not be able to overcome that visual. I still think if he could beat Sparty and OSU, he could survive. I also think the chances of scUM winning either of those games are slim to none.

From all the message board and facebook groups I've read, the general consensus is complete meltdown. There is a fringe of supporters who are holding out hope of turning it around and running the table in the B1G.
I would say the major split in the fan base right now is between those who want Hoke fired immediately, and those who want him fired at the end of the season.
Personally, I think Brandon is going to try and retain him because he is Brandon's hire. They hit the nail on the head on the radio today in saying Hoke was Brandon's "pet project." So Brandon has two choices. Be the guy remembered for hiring Hoke, or be remembered as the guy who fired him and brought in a "savior." Of course, this would be savior number 3 in regards to coaches. So take that for what it's worth.

There are also rumbling now that this coca cola/ticket fiasco may be the straw that broke the camels back between the regents and Brandon. They also know they are not going to get a big name coach to come here with him running around meddling in football business like the old man from Scooby Doo

First of all fuck scUM and everyone who looks like them. Who wants them to be good ever again?
Second, who in the fuck besides the cult is convinced Franklin is "the right hire"? He's eeked out two last second victories over UCF and Rutgers and one of those teams was using a retarded kid at QB.
Pardon my cynicism but I'm going to hold off on his HOF enshrinement for a couple more games at least.

I have complete faith in that institution's ability to fuck up anything they do. It's funny you mention the pedtards. We've always said they'll have a culture problem until the joebots start dying off. Well, scUM is stuck with this "m*ch*g*n man" myth until the blue hairs up there die off and are no longer calling the shots.

There are people a hell of a lot younger than blue hair age that buy into that M man bullshit.
one of the things I know to be truer than true in this life is that being stubborn and wrong is a lethal combination.
Think about that, then realize they have stubborn covered by their boosters and wrong covered by the pizza man.....then giggle you ass off, go grab a beer and toast that most magnificent of sumbitches, the man who set the train wreck in motion...St Bill Martin(hallowed be his name).
