Pizza Man says he's going to conduct a national search

[MililaniBuckeye]

did Tressell have a sub .500 record when coming to osu? yeah, i didn't think so. 46-50 does matter, IMO.

Tressel was 23-24-0 in his first four years at YSU before he led them to an 11-1 record in his fifth season. Hoke was 22-37-0 in his first five years at Ball State before he led them to a 12-1 record in his sixth season, after which he went to SDSU where he went from 4-8 in his first season to 9-4 in his second (SDSU had gone 9-27 the previous three seasons). There are similarities...

I was the hot shit mid major offensive genius football coach that was going to change the game of football. Just wait until I can recruit big time athletes and put them in my offense. It will be almost unfair, especially to those poor dumb plodding B10 bastards. The MMA wrasslin'-wolf owning-turret suffering strength coach I was bringing with me was just icing on the cake.

3 years later and I have more losses to Toledo than wins over Ohio State and Sparty. Combined. The ZOMG!! offense is good for about 14 ppg against any defense with a pulse, the special teams don't exist and the defense gets scored on more than a Jeffcat date brick victim.

So when you are conducting your next coaching search, make sure you get someone who understands there are 3 phases to the game of football and many types of offense so you can be better protected from mayhem. Like me.

The cool thing about Harbaugh going to the NFL is that it may take candidates to Stanford instead of Michigan. Take Brady Hoke, for example. If Stanford calls, would he rather stay on the west coast where he's been recruiting and - oh by the way - inherit Andrew Luck at QB his first year, or go to Michigan to clean up Rich Rod's mess?

Seems like a no brainer to me. Sorry, scUM.

The most recent BS rumor du jour:

Lester to Ann Arbor.
Pelini to LSU.


Right....

Hummmm.....let me think about that......would I be better off with Andrew Luck at QB or shoelaces?

Yeah, talk about a "no brainer".

Come on now, you get Tater too, if he gets his [mark may] together, doesn't that tip the scale scUM's way

 

[WolverineMike]

especially since most i've heard about Hoke is he's pretty adamant about not being a believer in the spread, so if he had his choice, Stanford probably looks more appealing. with the roster we currently have, Les seems like the most logical choice with the kind of offense he runs.


of course logic was thrown out the window years ago it seems.

Brandon's Blog: Coaching Search is Interesting, Intense, Time Consuming
Dave Brandon
Jan. 10, 2011

University of Michigan director of athletics Dave Brandon will regularly offer his view on different topics related to U-M and intercollegiate sports. All of his posts, along with links to related content, will be available on his page, mgoblue.com/brandon, and he is also on Twitter at @DaveBrandonAD.

During the press conference on Wednesday (Jan. 5), I noted we would be conducting a national search for our next football coach. Some would suggest we should complete this national search in a matter of hours, but this is a critical decision for Michigan Athletics and it cannot and will not be made in haste.

Coaches are an interesting, intense group, and although this interviewing process is time-consuming and somewhat demanding, it is an honor to represent Michigan and discuss our football program's needs and opportunities with a variety of impressive candidates and/or people who can offer valuable advice and input. The process is proceeding with careful consideration as to the qualifications, commitment, effectiveness and passion that various candidates would bring to our program.

Translation for those of you who don't speak ADese:
"Coaches are an interesting, intense group,"
(I can't get anyone to answer the phone or tweet back, let alone sit down and talk. They all claim they're getting ready for a bowl game or on a recruiting trip)
"and although this interviewing process is time-consuming and somewhat demanding,"
(I thought they'd be pounding on my door.)
"it is an honor to represent Michigan"
(let's throw some bull shit boiler plate in there to make it sound like this isn't about my ego)
"and discuss our football program's needs and opportunities"
"Geeeze, whut a fuckin' mess. If I had Bill Martin here I'd throttle his ass with a vice grip.)
"with a variety of impressive candidates"
(None of whom seem to want this job)
"and/or people who can offer valuable advice and input."
(folks who are so below the radar that I'd get my balls shoved up my colon by rich alums if I hired them)
"The process is proceeding with careful consideration"
(I'm dancing as fast as I can)
"as to the qualifications, commitment, effectiveness and passion"
(We're Michigan and we own college football)
"that various candidates would bring to our program."
('cause we sure don't want to get another train wreck in here)
