The forward pass was put into college football in 1906 (the same year BB73 retired)

tsun win % before the forward pass: 81.8%
tsun win % after the forward pass: 71.2

Racoon coats and John fucking Cooper. Their whole myth is based on those two era's.

This is a pretty neat website. http://www.winsipedia.com/michigan

The bottom you can see a graph of their cumulative win percentage through the years. Here's what it looks like going back to 1899 (Apparently, that's the earliest I can go).



(I'll assume copy/paste worked. I can't see it.)

It starts with a 75% win percentage and quickly goes up almost to 82% (1906). So there's the time before the forward pass (like you said).
Then it's a somewhat steady decline to 1967. It's almost 72%. The Ten Year War is a slow steady increase to about 74%. The 80's is pretty much a flatline for them. The 90s is the slightest of increases for them. It'd be interesting to see if Cooper had gone .500 against Michigan (change 4 of Michigan's wins to losses), that time period may have been another flatline.
Anyway the line stays flat through 2007, and then it takes the RichRod / ClapperHoke nosedive. Jimmah has been keeping it flat, again.

All that to say you're right.

The other one has some grit to him. Now, it may be retard grit but I don't think they are in a position to be picky.

SMJ hasn't, to my knowledge, done stupid self-reverential shit like post trick exhibition play videos or tweet "Come Join Me If You Want To Win Championships" CJMIYWTWC just doesn't seem like the guy to show grit and perseverance when it dawns on him what a clusterfuck he's entered. OTOH, CJMIYWTWC seems like the kind of douchebag who'll feel really feel at home in Harbaugh's House of Horrors.

The test will be how CJMIYWTWC reacts after his O-Line gets him killed a few times. I look forward to that.

I'm hoping it is a tie. Alan Bowman (transfer from Texas Tech) who has 2 years of eligibility wins the starting QB job in 2021. Both McNamara and McCarty get pissed off that Bowman will start again in 2022 and simultaneously enter the transfer portal immediately after the 2021 season. Hey, it could happen...:biggrin:

If Cooper had gone .500 against them, we'd have taken the all-time series lead a couple of years ago. I can still picture that fuck bundled up like Nanook Of The North when the temp got below 40. The image still haunts me to this day. This is how a real man dresses in cold weather, Coop.

Good for him. I eagerly await hearing the lamentation of his woman this November.

Hill, Shibley Named Michigan's Big Ten Medal of Honor Recipients
The University of Michigan Athletic Department announced Thursday (June 17) that seniors Alice Hill (cross-country and track and field) and Adam Shibley (football) were named its 2021 Big Ten Medal of Honor recipients. The Big Ten Medal of Honor is awarded to one male and one female student from the graduating class of each member institution who has demonstrated excellence on and off the field throughout their college career.

Shibley is the department's male recipient. He is the 40th recipient of the award from the football program, and the first since Jake Butt in 2017. A native of Cleveland, Ohio, Shibley is a three-year letterwinner who appeared in 18 games during his U-M career with one start at linebacker. He contributed on special teams throughout his career and played significant snaps at linebacker as a senior, when he had his best statistical season with a career-high 23 tackles in six games, including three tackles for loss.

Shibley transferred to Notre Dame in February.

1. Bowman is the best QB on the roster.

2. Harbaugh always starts a transfer if he can.

In Harbaugh's 71 games at Michigan, here is the breakdown of his starting QBs:

Transfer: 45 games (Patterson 26; Rudock 13; O'Korn 6)

Hoke holdover: 16 games (Speight 16)

Harbaugh signee: 10 games (Peters 4; Milton 4; McNamara 2)

I get it now - the Hairball QB whisperer thing. The TTUN fans need to whisper about how bad it is since none of them want to hear it out loud.

The thing I find fascinating outside the subpar results from whoever the starter ends up being, is how obviously terrible he is at managing expectations within the QB room. Him pissing people off isn’t that surprising given how incapable he is of interacting normally with other human beings in general, but from the outside looking in, it feels like he basically promises every QB the starting job, leading to the constant transfers coming in and going out of the program.

I’m sure he’ll manage the current QB situation just fine, though.

Bowman's completion % was high but his TD/INT ratio is not very great at all.

He also didn't really throw the ball downfield a whole lot at Texas Tech.

So another captain checkdown who might be able to beat lower level teams if the WRs can step up and do a lot of work after the catch and the running game happens to work.

Ah yes, the old 7 year rebuild :lol:

The number of Harbaugh defenders/apologists do seem to be shrinking due to the responses of this hilariousness though.

Brian Kelly went 4-8 at Notre Dame in year 7. He was 55-23 in his first 6 (.708). Notre Dame kept him around after that 4-8 season and they’ve won double digit games every year since, including two playoff appearances.

Harbaugh is 49-22 after his first 6 (.690). I don’t expect anything nearly as bad as 4-8 here, but there’s a difference between something being “acceptable” and choosing tearing down the program entirely. Michigan going 7-5 this year doesn’t have to be “acceptable,” but it also doesn’t necessarily mean you burn the program down and start from scratch either. Some things take time, programs go through rebuilds and have down years. It happens, and you don’t have to fire your head coach when that happens. You can see it through and you might even get the desired results everyone around here is begging for.
