And yet everyone knew about the sign stealing before the Penn State game in their national title season. And they still won the title (including beating OSU’s arse) post sign stealing while playing many games without their head coach.
Please let me know what games they would have lost that season but for the sign stealing.

Wasn't Dave Portnoy so excited when UM hired him?

They are 5-4 with several games left and he took over a team that won 9 games last year. How is that even close to being one of the worst hires? Ellis Johnson going 0-12 after Fedora had Southern Miss at 12-2 would be something along the lines of worst hire ever.

I think it’s nowhere near a bad hire if bait is cut after one year and they get a coach worthy of Michigan. If they think he’s the guy and he’s not, and keep him too long, then it would be one of the worst hires
Standards are just a little different when you should be competing for natties

It is a defensible hire. They needed someone with a track record of running a P4 program who was not a controversial frick up (in recruiting practices and personal life.)
They failed to account for Whittingham having no feel for the Michigan program, its history and rivalries and him being an older coach who had never run an NIL era program outside of Utah.

Whittingham is a damn good coach but he was set up to fail this year. He is reason #200 why Michigan sucks. Top of the list is the previous DEI coach and AD.

Whittingham was a good coach. The game passed him by, which is why Utah moved on from him.
