Everybody is somebody else's weirdo.
What is going on in Ann Arbor?
Shawn Windsor of the Detroit Free Press hit the nail on the head when he pointed out that when it comes to the troubles at Michigan, "it's all about the quarterback." But, he continues, "when a team can't develop one, then it's all about the coach."
Preach it.
Apart from his first season in Ann Arbor, it's been nothing but trouble for Brady Hoke. After taking a Rich Rodriguez team to the Sugar Bowl (and winning), Hoke has been busy "rebuilding" Michigan into a program traditional Michigan and Big Ten fans would recognize. Only Hoke forgot to add in the part about winning football games.
Easier said than done, right? After all, you have to recruit the best players to have the best team. So let's take a peek at how Hoke's done on the recruiting trail.
Last season, Michigan pulled in the No. 4 recruiting class in the Big Ten, according to Rivals.com. Not bad. A year prior, the Wolverines were No. 2 on the list, as they were in 2012. Even the class that signed on just after Hoke was hired, in 2011, was No. 3 in the conference.
So where has all that potential talent gone? Well, it's still there. You just can't see it.
