I'm not focusing on the Georgia loss - it was the third point in my statement.
Their offense was just horrible. Their game plan was hope special teams and defense can get you good field position, and throw it up to the one good WR they had and pray for a score.
Almost all of their wins were by a handful of points and a several of those wins were luck. They could have easily been 5-7 last year. They just got the bounces and some help from refs i.e. the Tech game. Plus, they lost to OU twice. Then, finish the year getting owned.
How good was Rhule though? Their offenses were shit, they didn't roll anyone other than Kansas and they got owned by Georgia.
Other than the millions he collected to go to Carolina, I can see why he left.
3-4 win ceiling for that team this year if he had stayed
I've worked with some engineers from Tech, they are good guys.
To be honest, I was a bit surprised to meet said people.
I didn't know Tech grads did anything other than deliver my pizzas, let alone graduate from an engineering school.
I remember when he was at Stanford, Harbaugh slammed Michigan's academics (as related to degrees that Michigan football players seek). Something along the lines of "they don't have a general studies degree at Stanford", and "You want these kids to have a quality degree for life after football".
I assume he hasn't pushed for more stringent academics since he went back to Michigan.
Let's look at the records.
2015 12-2....5 years after Harbaugh left. Bowl Win
2016 10-3 Bowl Win
2017 9-5 Bow Loss
2018 9-4 Bowl Win
2019 4-8
As Ed norton said, they are regressing.
I don't think Shaw gets canned unless they put up 4-5 seasons in a row of sub .500 ball.
Then if you can him, the question becomes...who do you try and hire? It takes a special coach to go there and be successful and deal with the bullshit that is California
They can't score. They have a bad offense and it was bad last year too. Brewer can't throw, their OL sucks. The difference is they had a very good defense last year to cover up the anemic offense.
This year? Not so much. New coaching staff, lots of new faces on defense.
Texas: 31
Baptists: 10
During Dantonio's tenure, at least 16 football players were accused of rape and Dantonio was accused of covering up several of those. Then there is the entire Larry Nassar scandal, which involved numerous people in different administration positions not doing anything about it.
***k him and that entire cesspool.
Michigan Rape University
Let's help a rapist stay on the team
Lets recruit players with known sexual assualt histories
Their coaches like to rape too
SF is quite nice, actually. If you had said Bakersfield, that would make sense. Or Waco. Or East St. Louis. Or Gary Indiana. Or a hundred other US cities.
SF? Pretty far down on the shithole rankings
I was a kid at the time, but I remember watching Buddy take a swing at Gilbride. It wasn't until years later that I realized it meant that team was dysfunctional AF. Pardee was the wrong guy to lead that collection of coaches and players, especially not putting Buddy in his place. Complete waste of one of the most talented teams ever.
