Bad324 Posted January 11, 2011 Report Share Posted January 11, 2011 I'm torn on this because I'd like him to goto Michigan and realize that half his gimmicks probably won't work in more pro style defenses. However, half of those are going to be used against the Buckeyes and probably work and piss me off to no end As much as I love seeing the Buckeyes torching Michigan every year, the rivalry is losing its luster and I'd like it to get back to prominence and have another legit team in the Big Ten Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RVTPilot Posted January 11, 2011 Report Share Posted January 11, 2011 +1 Bad. Knowing that Meeshigan is a guaranteed win on the Bucks schedule honestly takes the fun out of it. Simialr to the Browns/Stillers thing. Guess it keeps the overall kharmic balance in my football life. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fonzie Posted January 11, 2011 Author Report Share Posted January 11, 2011 There's a school of thought out there that LSU is dropping Les' buyout, so they can then court PeliniNot sure why Bo would leave Nebraska for LSU other than $$. Seems like kind of a lateral move to me. But it also got me to thinkin' perhaps skip Lester, & go after another Bo at UM! Then you've got the ugly girl at the prom, who just wants to dance, but nobody wants to take home... Brady HokeIt's interesting to me that aside from the jet sightings... Brandon's not saying anything about Les. Les' side seems to be the ones this time that are driving the rumors. Kinda ironic when you think about 3 years ago, & the number him & Herby pulled on us Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cmh_sprint Posted January 11, 2011 Report Share Posted January 11, 2011 You better hope Les comes to Michigan. If he passes, you're going to begging for Lloyd to put the headsets back on. While I believe RR was a bad move for Michigan, they are taking a big risk by not having an A-list candidate committed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

max power Posted January 11, 2011 Report Share Posted January 11, 2011 He passed! Even Les Miles doesnt want that shitty job. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cmh_sprint Posted January 11, 2011 Report Share Posted January 11, 2011 honestly, I don't think Brady Hoke would be a bad choice at all for themI would agree with that. The point I was trying to make is that the program has been degraded so much by RR, IMO, that they need Les Miles (or like) to help not only the team on the field but to help restore the image of the entire program.

Fonzie Posted January 11, 2011 Author Report Share Posted January 11, 2011 And now that Miles has hosed us yet again, DB's on his way to L.A. Hopefully they finally learned their lesson, & Miles is dead to us forever from here on out!http://www.signonsandiego.com/news/2011/jan/11/sdsus-hoke-discussions-michigan-job/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cheech Posted January 11, 2011 Report Share Posted January 11, 2011 I've always hated Les Miles and LSU. I don't know if it's a product of coaching or their environment, but those boys play DIRTY. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ohdaho Posted January 11, 2011 Report Share Posted January 11, 2011 Les Miles has always been shady. Even when he was in the Big 12 he just seems like he has no class. Ive always hated him. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think that turned out just fine I hope you're right, & I hear 'ya... Other people keep sayin' the same thing... But Tressel had won some National Championships at the lower level.Brady's best season is 12-1 at Ball St, which took him like 6 seasons to get to... And he's only had 3 winning seasons in 8 as a head coach. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ohdaho Posted January 12, 2011 Report Share Posted January 12, 2011 He was on the coaching staff when Michigan won the NC in 97. He'll be a decent recruiter I think...he did get Tom Brady. The guy got HC jobs at Ball State and SDSU...when youre building a program from the bottom up youre not gonna have a lot of winning seasons in the beginning. He's got a good pedigree. Very defensively minded...which I think is very much Big 10 football. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fonzie Posted January 12, 2011 Author Report Share Posted January 12, 2011 Presser in an hour...January 11, 2011 For IMMEDIATE Release Media Contact: David Ablauf (734) 763-4423 Hoke Named Michigan Football Coach ANN ARBOR – University of Michigan Athletic Director Dave Brandon announced today (Tuesday, Jan. 11) the hiring of Brady Hoke as the 19th coach in the 131-year history of Michigan football. Hoke arrives in Ann Arbor after spending the past eight seasons as a head coach at Ball State (2003-08) and San Diego State (2009-10). “We are pleased to announce the hiring of Brady,” said Brandon. “He is a terrific coach and will be a great ambassador and leader for our football program. We look forward to having him build a championship program on the field and in the classroom.” Hoke spent eight seasons in Ann Arbor before embarking on his head coaching career. He mentored the Wolverines defensive line all eight seasons, a group that helped Michigan rank annually among the nation’s best in rushing and total defense. Hoke coached three linemen to All-America honors during his tenure – William Carr (1996), Glen Steele (1997) and Rob Renes (1999) – and had five players earn first-team All-Big Ten accolades. A member of Michigan’s national championship staff in 1997, Hoke helped the defense lead the nation in rushing defense at 89 yards per game and 2.7 yards per carry. Michigan’s team posted a 5-3 record against Michigan State, Ohio State and in bowl games during Hoke’s tenure on the staff. Hoke was named the 2010 Mountain West Conference Coach of the Year after guiding the Aztecs to a 9-4 overall record and 5-3 conference mark. He led SDSU to its first bowl game in 12 years, a 35-14 victory over Navy in the Poinsettia Bowl. Six of his players earned first-team All-MWC honors in 2010, including running back Ronnie Hamilton, the league’s freshman of the year. In his first season at San Diego State, Hoke had five players named to All-MWC teams, while 11 players were MWC All-Academic selections. Hoke took the leadership position at his alma mater, Ball State, in 2003 and built it into a championship program before departing after six seasons for the West Coast. He mentored players to 35 All-MAC selections in six years en route to a pair of bowl game appearances in 2007 and ’08. The 2008 season marked the best season in program history, tallying a school-record 12 wins and completing an undefeated Mid-American Conference regular season campaign. His team won the west division championship in 2008 and shared the division crown in 2007. Hoke has 28 years of collegiate experience, with assistant coaching stints at Grand Valley State (1983), Western Michigan (1984-86), Toledo (1987-88), Oregon State (1989-94) and Michigan (1995-2002). A 1982 graduate of Ball State University, Hoke earned four letters (1977-80) with the Cardinals. He was part of the only two teams in school history to post undefeated conference seasons: as a player in 1978, and as head coach in 2008. Hoke led BSU to the 1978 MAC championship, and as a team captain in 1980 earned All-MAC second team honors. A native of Dayton, Ohio, Hoke graduated from Fairmont East High School in 1977. Hoke and his wife, the former Laura Homberger, have one daughter, Kelly. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
