Whatever bowl game Michigan winds up in, I'm praying they get Todd Harris as the sideline reporter.

I just want one more halftime exchange between Lloyd and Todd. They're always gems.

Michigan coach Carr steps down after 13 seasons

Michigan coach Carr steps down after 13 seasons

By LARRY LAGE, AP Sports Writer
AP - Nov 19, 12:21 pm EST

ANN ARBOR, Mich. (AP) -- When Lloyd Carr suddenly became Michigan's coach in 1995, an old friend stopped by his office to give him some advice.

"He said, 'Lloyd, when you leave here, you want to make sure that you've got your health, your friends and your family,"' Carr recalled Monday when he announced his retirement. "I have all those things -- as far as I know."

Carr broke into laughter in one of the light moments of his news conference, which lasted nearly 40 minutes and included moments in which he fought back tears as he explained why he is leaving the sideline after the Wolverines play in a bowl game. The 62-year-old coach said he will miss singing "The Victors" with his team, which he did 121 times as a head coach over 13 years. The biggest win came at the Rose Bowl, capping the 1997 national championship season.

Loyalty puts Carr in league of his own Others can't compete with Michigan coach

Michigan coach Lloyd Carr will trot onto the field one last time against Florida, then will leave the coaching profession forever.
Too bad he is not leaving it in good hands.
Too bad a decent man such as Carr is considered an outmoded relic in a business littered with deadbeats and drifters. What does it say about college football when rootless vagabonds and chronic liars such as Nick Saban and Bobby Petrino are in demand, and an honorable coach such as Carr feels the need to step down?
Here's all you need to know about Carr: Outside of his office is a huge dictionary that sits on a stand. Before his players can come in to talk to him, they are required to look up a big word in the dictionary and then tell Carr what it means. And ? get this ? they don't even need tutors to help them read the words.

LLoyd was a class act.
He was a very good recruiter.
He ran a clean program.
and
He consistantly lost to Tressel's teams.
