  • Even ESPN is starting to say maybe Weis isn't right here ...

    • ESPN's no friend of the school. Weis is in there for a while.
      I came upon a barroom full of bad Salon pictures in which men with hats on the backs of their heads were wolfing food from a counter. It was the institution of the "free lunch" I had struck. You paid for a drink and got as much as you wanted to eat. For something less than a rupee a day a man can feed himself sumptuously in San Francisco, even though he be a bankrupt.

      • Oh, they all think he'll be there a while, mostly due to the contract. But, they think he at minimum needs to swap out the entire coaching staff, in addition to agreeing with me that his recruits need to play well at some point ...

        • Big deal. Nobody in the program cares what you or ESPN think. It has its own internal logic.

                Announcement either before or after the game this weekend.
                If you think there's going to be an announcement before the OSU game, you are completely bat**** crazy. I'd be absolutely ****ing floored if any announcement were made until after Michigan's bowl game.

                  Congrats on having an opinion on something that you know little about in detail. Despite it all, ESPN has no better knowledge than you do.

                  Really is this so hard to understand? I have a healthy humility for my sense of the Michigan program in detail, f.e.

                    This seems different. Apparently, the information/speculation is coming from the Michigan pay sites.

                    I can understand those reasons.

                      If you are... did you know that Shakey Jake died?

                          Carr being out is one thing; Miles taking his place is entirely another. There's no reason for Miles to leave. He's the coach of an elite program in the elite conference in the country; he has a very good shot at a national title this year (and, presumably, for years to come); and it'll cost him a lot (as in financial penalties) for him to bail for his alma mater, which would constitute a downgrade for him, IMO. I think Miles stays put right where he is.

                          • There wouldn't be any financial hit to Miles; Michigan would buy out his contract, and he'd likely get paid as much, if not more, in Ann Arbor. He played and coached at Michigan under Bo. It is his dream job, by all reports. While I agree LSU is a more attractive position currently by most objective measures, keep in mind that not too long ago, LSU was an afterthought. Michigan has always been one of the elite programs, and there's no sign that will change anytime soon.

                              I know a fair amount about Notre Dame also (living in Chicago it's hard not to with all of the sports radio talk given to them). I know that he's had enough time to get a team of his own in there, and they're not performing. Two good years with a team the previous coach recruited, and now that he's into his own recruits he hasn't had much success.

                              Certainly it's possible he will turn this around - ND has such an amazing reputation that the recruits will come no matter what - but I think it will be with a different coaching staff under him, or at minimum a different coaching style, and a much stronger emphasis on recruiting. At some point he has to take some of the blame for this. Carr certainly deserves much of the blame for Appalachian State, after all...
