I can't wait to beat up on Harbaugh as well.

IF we get Harbaugh, I don't think you guys will beat up on him like you did Rich Rod.

Harbaugh is the kind of guy that will take the vest head on and try to punch him in the mouth day one.

I'll tell you one thing...if we get Harbaugh, our team won't be a bunch of soft-ass pussies that get their asses kicked in every meaningful game THREE YEARS IN.

In year 1 under Harbaugh he'd have this team playing a lot tougher with a lot more physicality and they'd play smart football - two things RichRod coached teams- even at WVU- NEVER did.

I think three years into Harbaugh we wouldn't be getting blown out 6 times like we did 3 years into RichRod.

we heard the same BS with RR.

I agree 100%. Harbaugh would turn Michigan back into a pro-style offense team with a solid defense. He likely won't be Schembechler II, but he'll be the antithesis of DickRod.

Harbaugh does not run a conventional pro style offense and I highly doubt he forces his offense on the players we have. It will be a slow and smooth transition over to his offense.

Brandon really played this one well IMO. As long as tsun is JH's destination job, I would not be surprised to see another ten year war on the horizon.

God I hope so. That would be sick.

Fact of the matter is OSU-Michigan used to mean something, now it just doesn't mean anything. Losing 42-7, 22-10, and 37-7 three years in a row will do that.

Even though Tressel came in and had Lloyd's numbers the games between them for the most part were still close, meaningful, good games. I mean even though we lost them, those 2002 and 2006 games were freaking epic- what the Michigan-OSU game should be all about.

I know now what it was like for OSU fans to live through Cooper, but it's even worse, because at least Cooper had awesome teams.

Rich Rod? Three years, three garbage ass teams that get their asses kicked by any team with a pulse, that have bad coaching and play stupid football, sloppy on special teams, don't play a lick of defense, and are one man shows on offense (2008- Brandon Minor, 2009- Tate, 2010- Denard).

I am so ready for this Rodriguez night-mare to end.

Agreed.

Harbaugh's offense is a hybrid. He mixes in a lot of west coast with spread looks and also smash mouth I-form. Harbaugh goes two back, one back, two TE, 4 wide sets...he runs a lot of read option with Luck- even more read option than we run with Denard (Denard ain't good at it). Most of Denard's runs are QB ISO.

I think a kid like Gardner would be a great fit for what Harbaugh wants to do on offense.

Man, you sure have changed that tune since September...

LOL.

I LOVE that about Rich. Guy is super passionate about football. Did you ever see Bo coach? Same type of intensity.

:wink:
