I thought Michigan would be much better at this point of the Harbaugh era.

I bet he ends up back in the NFL at some point, better fit.

If I was Michigan, yes.

He can’t seem to do better than 3 losses and he’s at a big time school.

What is the point? I would want 1-2 loss type of seasons at some point with such a highly paid coach and at such a prestige football school..

But some are okay with never competing like you.

Not all 40-13 is created equal

On saturday they said he was 0-15 against top 15 teams. If that's true, they need to move on to someone else

His team this year, and Shea Patterson, look to have regressed majorly.

Recruiting seems to be pretty good, albeit not "elite". They have the 11th most roster talent in 2019 according to 24/7 and here are their recruiting rankings.

They should be better.

2016 - 8th
2017 - 5th
2018 - 22nd
2019 - 8th
2020 - 11th (so far, but 24 commits so they'll likely drop)

I think it's time for us to step back and look at what Michigan, as a football program, really is. They haven't really won a National Title since the late 40's (don't give me that '97 bullshite, Nebraska would have blown the doors off them).

That said, he's doing an all-around decent job. There are only a handful of elite programs and Michigan certainly isn't one of them.

I like Harbaugh. He’s a unique character in college football, hateable for reasons other than Meyer or Brian Kelly or Saban. He’s so full of his own shite, the perfect Michigan man


That was quite eloquent.

at what point in Michigan history are they trying to get back to that Harbaugh doesn't already have them at?

1) What are those things on his feet?
2) Why doesn't he ever wear short sleeves?

This man is a lunatic.

I don't think some people understand that Michigan of today can't be the Michigan of the past. It's the same as Notre Dame except Notre Dame has more national appeal.

Detroit is a ghost town. The youth of the midwest is moving to the west coast or to the south. Michigan's teams were made of mainly Ohioians and kids of the people who worked for Ford and GM. Most of those factories are closed and Ohio State does a better job of putting up a fence around Ohio.

Ohio and PA are really the only rust belt states that didn't cling to the old make vehicles, steel, and coal from days past and actually diversified.

Michigan is going to have to settle for being 1 of those programs that averages 8-10 wins a year with 1 out of 4 having a shot for 12+ wins.

that’s not fair to MSU as they blew out LSU a couple years ago. I can’t remember the last time Michigan beat OSU. They haven’t even sniffed victory in probably a decade

I'm a State fan, so I felt it was fair enough to get the point across.

Do a google image search and see if you can find a picture of him on the sidelines during a Michigan game wearing short sleeves.

I just looked it up. Michigan has ONE, that’s right, ONE single victory against OSU since 2004. Hard to even call it a rivalry at the point. Embarrassing for a program like Michigan.
