@Sauce Dab Eli could finish as the only player to have 3 wins vs Alabama during Saban's tenure, I believe

2 shots

edit: I think Prince Sammons also would account for that
Not surprised. He’s been with us for 10 years. He might as well come back next year and make it an 11th season. He’s our most consistent playmaker

Breh, that was not a Lloyd Carr talented team he inherited. Henne/Mallet were gone, as well as Manningham, Arrington and Hart. Every leading skill position player was gone from the previous year (Carr personally advised Mallet to transfer). There was nothing leftover offensively. He had to start from scratch in that regard.

And didn't Brady Hoke go 11-2 with Rich Rod's players? Then the team tailed off each year after? :ohhh:



Doesn't Harbaugh's offense/defense look like shyt against almost every decent team as well? :ohhh:

Fluke win...breh, we would all take a fluke win over osu at this point.

Read "Three and Out" to read how much Rich Rod got undermined during his tenure. He isn't perfect and made mistakes of his own but you can't name another coach outside of Texas that was given as little support as him. People were trying to get him fired after his first month.
They left because fraud was trying to fit a square peg into a round hole. Look at the way he used Threet and Sheridan, he immediately switched to his gimmick offense even though he didn't have the players to run it. Ron English would have done a better job.

No, Borges tweaked the offense, still utilizing some spread concepts because he isn't a total moron who tried completely transition an offense in one year. Mattison overhauled the defense to the point where it was unrecognizable. Fraud was never going to get the defense right, so there was no path for him to accomplish what Hoke did that year. Additionally, a number of the key players from that Sugar bowl team were Carr recruits who stuck it out (Hemingway WR, Molk OL and Martin DL). Some of Harbaugh's best teams were the ones that properly utilized Hoke's recruits but I don't think anyone is ridiculous enough to think we should have retained him...

Harbaugh's offenses/defenses haven't always looked like shyt against decent teams and it's disingenuous to even claim that.

As I said, you're the one touting that win vs Oregon as if they didn't get baptized in the rematch. One win over o$u and being a 2-pt conversion way from making it two didn't save Hoke, so a fluke win is ultimately irrelevant. Moreover, o$u is never going to get caught slipping vs Michigan, it's the last game of the season and kind of one of the biggest games in sports -- not a match up between random conference opponents.


He had the first losing season since 1967 and worst season in Michigan football history. Lost to a 3-9 Toledo team. Got the program on probation. Tried to recruit guys like Demar Dorsey who never qualified to play above the JUCO level. He cried like a bytch while begging for his job as he sang You Raise Me Up by Josh Groban. Failed at every job he's had since being rightfully fired at Michigan. And yet, 10 years later there are still people who want to lay down and die in an unmarked grave for him.

I suppose that's his greatest accomplishment.:ld:
