0-4 in The Game and two of the four were blow outs.

Hoke was 1-3 and had his woefully out manned team play over their head in every one of them.

I continue to stand by my claim that Hoke > Harbaugh

They also ran off RichRod after three years. He inherited a team that LLLLoyd had been coasting with after Tressel took his will to coach and it was known that his system required different athletes on both sides of the ball. Hoke's first season success, as well as RichRod's track record at his stops before and after Scum point to him not getting enough time to succeed. Although they did dodge a bullet based on his off the field shenanigans.

It's fun to reminisce about those asshats up north making dumb decisions out of unearned hubris.

To be honest, i thought RR hire was stupid from the moment it was announced. I'm not sure if firing him after 3 was a good or bad decision... though trading for Hoke was an even bigger boondoggle.
And now they have this guy. Where does it go from here? Maybe they can hire McElwain next?

But there was just no way 335 was going to work in this conference. It didnt even work in BE ... Schiano had the only team that even attempted to play D back then.

RichRod was a terrible hire from the start for a number of reasons. His system would never have worked at any program in a major conference that has championship aspirations. He'd be a good fit at a program like Maryland or Illinois, not at scUM. That said, they brought him on, then cut bait when they didn't experience some renaissance after three years. He took over a pro-style offense roster and had to spend three years recruiting his kind of athletes. Once he started getting them, they decided it was time to cut bait. His biggest mistake was terrible hires for his defensive staff. They got worse on defense each year he was there defensively. He didn't recruit well on that side of the ball, but he had enough talent-wise for Mattison to take over the D in 2011 and make them pretty solid. Firing him after three years was dumb, but hiring him in the first place was even dumber. He was a poor fit schematically, strategically and culturally. It was doomed from the start.

And to be fair that was actually forced on him by the school. They wouldn't let him hire his DC from WVU... the AD basically hired the defensive staff for him... forced a 43 guy on him, and then he still insisted on running 335. What a clusterfuck of a joke.
When he went to AZ, he teamed up with his old DC again.

It's important to remember when the DFBIA starts complimenting Jimmah for the "rebuild" that he took over a roster full of guys who fit his scheme. many of which had OSU offers.

Hoke took over a roster full of RR's 2 star slot dots.

Bonus point: Hoke vs Jimmah and point margins in The Game

Fat Garbage Man
1-3 record
130 points for/144 against
avg score: 33-36
Largest loss: 14 points

Jim Kardashian
0-4 record
99 points for/165 against
avg score: 25-41
Largest loss: 29 points

Jimmah has 2 losses of 20+ in The Game


Hoke > Harbaugh. Prove me wrong
