What trait must Michigan's next coach have?
quote:

Michigan's next coach needs to develop a quarterback. Want to be elite? Create a star. Look at the top of the College Football Playoff rankings: Oregon's Marcus Mariota, Florida State's Jameis Winston, TCU's Trevone Boykin, Ohio State's J.T. Barrett (pre-injury), Baylor's Bryce Petty. This season's best of the best. The only team without one: Alabama. Which has Nick Saban, one of the great coaches of all-time. Get Saban and you're excused.
quote:

This isn't a rebuilding process. It's finding a coach who can develop a quarterback. This program has some talent. Before Connor Cook emerged last season, Michigan State looked like a 7-6 team again ... with the league's best defense. The position is that important. The block M should do the rest.
I don't necessarily agree with their assessment of the Michigan program. I think there are more problems than just the QB position. But if people that follow Michigan the closest think that they need a head coach that will develop a QB, then once they look closer into Miles tenure at LSU they may realize that he is not their guy.
Edit: History tells us that Les is not Michigan's guy
quote:

Les Miles may be a fine recruiter, but he eats grass better than he develops quarterbacks. Is that really the head coach Michigan wants?

If that is the case and I am not saying it isn't, that speaks volumes about what is to happen at LSU until he does leave.

I wouldn't venture all these programs were "elite".

Seems to me, UM should be more concerned about a Coach that can win.

But, I don't think they know what in the hell they want.

Kinda funny actually

Well that lets out Miles, but really you do not have to be able to do that to be a Good HC.

What you have to be able to do is hire people who can, but that requires Talent also

That's part of their problem right there.


Same attitude that ND has.


That's why neither of them have been LEGITIMATELY relevant on a national scale in quite some time.

Truth hurts. 3 loss Less would be out of job Les if he couldn't recruit. I wonder if another requirement for the new Michigan coach is the ability to manage the clock as well.

Correct me if I'm wrong, but didn't Miles have a winning record against Urban Meyer?

How many coaches have a winning record against the current head coach of Ohio State? How many of them would accept the Michigan job?

... and the Michigan program won't make the call? You have got to be joking.
