Domino's Pizza is known to be putrid.
The last time I ate it was many years ago when I was stuck overnight in an airport and was forced to choose between it and starvation. I thought about it for some time, eventually ate the pizza, and wished I had opted for starvation.

The Big 10
Kinda like lettuce..Not much to it!

What list are you looking at? LSU is the 12th winningest program of all time. Unless you really want to count teams that havent been in major college football for half of their wins (aka Penn, Harvard, Yale and Princeton)

when you have a present like UofM (or, for that matter, the entire big 10), you cling to the past...

I've missed most of the Michigan story, except for the fact that Miles is staying here and really, that's all I was concerned about. But if Brandon said that...I can't think of a better example of someone that is not in touch with reality.
Oh, and he sounds really butt hurt about it too.

He is just trying to save face. His first two candidates turned him down. Now he is saying he and Michigan really had Hoke as their first choice all along.
Everyone knows that is not the case.

Hoke looks like someone who should be a capo in the Genovese crime family

They are just like Alabama

Well I wouldn't call them garbage, but WTH's up with having to have a "Michigan Man". It's always gotta be a Michigan Man.... What's so different up there that it takes a "Michigan Man" to win football games.

First, you're wrong because LSU is in the top 15 of all time winninest programs.
Second, the Michigan fans that have posted here have been nothing but classy. I feel bad for them because their AD is being controled by the good 'ole boy network. We were similar until Mark Emmeret broke the trend. There's a lot of spin on all sides and none of us will ever truly know what happened.
Best of luck to Michigan!

Alabama fans will go through what our fans have been going through once he leaves. The coach who follows him won't be accepted and fans will lie about their disdain for him being due to a lack of performance but it's all bullshite.

"They live off the past".
I love those quotes in reference to great football programs who have made a few bad hires. Michigan, Alabama, ND., etc. As if they don't care about the present, so they just live off the past.
Michigan has a great football tradition. They will be an elite program once they find the right coach. It's that simple. Who knows if Hoke is the guy.
Texas wandered in the wilderness for 20 years before Mack Brown.
Oklahoma was lost before they got Stoops.
Same for Bama before Stoops.
Same for Florida before Spurrier
Same for ND before Holtz (and possibly before Kelly)
Same for LSU before Saban

Well thanks to those of you who understand.
A lot of our fanbase is very upset with our AD and the way he conducted the search and the way he comes off throughout the process. Its not like we all believed him when he said he never offered Miles, most of us knew he was lying or something.
I agree though, its a shame someone like Lloyd Carr and other past coaches are so bent on controlling the program, that they refuse to support it if its not what they like.
As a die-hard Michigan fan, I'm really hoping our AD was right about ONE thing and that Brady Hoke wll be a good coach, we shall see.
