Like I said earlier, I am done with this team. (Not done with Michigan :rudy:).

I have hated this Hoke hire from day 1 and nothing he has done has given us even the belief that he may be great. Hoke is in over his head. Borges is washed up as a coordinator. The entire offensive coaching staff needs to go. I'd rather make Cam Cameron the head coach at this point and fire everyone but Mattison.

So his QBs weren't Steven Threet and Nick Sheridan?

I think Brandon Graham, Morgan Trent, Junior Hemingway and Jonas Mouton were the only guys who were drafted in the NFL. Not exactly the pillars of their current NFL teams, but you're telling me there was talent on that team? :heh:

This is college football, plenty of good players don't translate Into the nfl. No such thing as a bare cubbard at Michigan. I don't give a shyt if everybody left, nikka won 3 games.

I know people upset but rich rod gets no love. He didn't do shyt.

Carr encouraged Ryan Mallett to transfer after Rich Rod was hired too. He made sure there was next to nothing left.

Funny, I recall during Lloyd Carr final game at the capital one bowl, they interviewed Rich Rod and they asked him about transition and Rich Rod stated that he will adjust, he "loves winning too much not to adjust." Ryan Mallett went and did his due diligence on transferring given Rich Rods preferred system, and Mario Manningham and Adrian Arrington did their due diligence on the NFL Draft. While all three were still deciding, Rich Rod went on the radio and announced none of the three will be returning to Michigan. He stated that "There ain't no half way", if I remember correctly. So instead of a sure fire NFL QB with the strongest arm in college football, we spent a season with guys who were never meant to see the field at michigan at QB throwing to true freshman wrs running rich rods offense poorly. His way lead to 3-9, the worst season we've ever had and snapped 35 years of winning seasons. fukk him.

Manningham and Arrington weren't coming back no matter what. Why would they turn down NFL money at that point to come back and learn a new system and possibly hurt their draft stock.

RR didn't handle the Mallett situation very well, but let's not kid ourselves into thinking he was gonna stay and run the spread. That didn't fit his skillset and you're still ignoring that Carr told him he should transfer.

At no time did RR have the support that Hoke has received. People wanted him gone almost as soon as he left campus. Name one other coach across the country who got treated like RR. It was an impossible situation.

It's also ironic that everyone likes to overlook the fact that Hoke won with RR players and the team keeps getting worse with his. So RR clearly didn't leave the cupboard empty like it was when he arrived.

Isn't there a rumor out that a bunch of younger players like Derrick Green and Taco Charlton want to transfer?

Arrington was a 7th round pick, Rich Rod should have recruited him a little. I think if Ryan Mallett comes back, both receivers would have came back and helped their draft status. You mean to tell me Rich Rod couldn't have eliminated those QB keeper plays and built something around Mallett? The hell kind of offensive genius couldn't? There were the Carr loyal contingent that didn't like Rich Rod but you know how you win people over? Win. The 3-9 season expedited everything

Also ironic that Ryan Van Bergen, David Molk Troy Woolfolk and Junior Hemmingway were Lloyd Carr recruits. "Bare cupboard". The Hoke won with RR guys talking point is hilarious

That rumor was statted by Bill Kurelic from Bucknuts. The parents of these players already came out and debunked it. Kurelic's a hack and I honestly don't know how h can be taken seriously. Dude is a professional troll .
