I don't see how Stephen Ross let's this happen. Either up the money to keep him at Michigan or pony up to get him to Miami. Crazy.

Everybody sleeps on Chris Grier in Miami, and how much power he has. He has been with the Dolphins for 20 years and has worked his way into the GM position, yet no one talks about him. I think he is a guy who wants anything other than a strong willed coach to run things. I'll be stunned if it turns out otherwise.

I think Michigan fans are going to be upset with Warde. You cut Harbaugh’s pay, but he delivered on beating Ohio St., winning Big 10 championship, and making the playoff. Do you think Warde pissed Harbaugh off?

I figured he was going to end up there when he went in for his first interview.

he is the type of coach they need as we need to remember how well he did at San Francisco before Michigan.

Eh, I think Harbaugh wanted back in and now was the time. Warde will be judged on this hire.

Michigan should take the coach from Iowa State. That would be a sneaky good hire.

With all the stuff re: Flores now, I'm thinking Patrick Graham is in a pretty good place here for Minnesota.

Yes, that should be a fun place to work for foreseeable future, esp for a white coach. Can u imagine the circus pulling into town there now. Flores is a good coach and nowhere near the end of his ride. For him to risk getting kaperNick-ed over this tells you there’s a lot of smoke.

Yeah, I wrote what I wrote before seeing the other news. I thought Flores should have stayed. Fact still remains, he could have upped the money for him to remain at Michigan. All probably pointless now

I had read that he felt he hit his ceiling at Michigan. The SEC had too many advantages for him to win a title at Michigan

Harbaugh has a brother who is an NFL Head Coach. Which means ... he knows exactly that NFL coaching has less BS today than being a major P5 College coach; the lifestyle is right in front of him. And, the NIL nutso environment makes this the Wild West. Now, he also has stark contrast to Georgia whereby he had 4 or 5 FiveStars and Georgia had like 20. The B1G is great place to be; but nonetheless, the path to the National Championship is pothole heavy.

He chose the contra to bleed Blue and hang in one of the most wonderful collegetowns in America: Ann Arbor

At Michigan he will almost always have better players than his opponents. In the NFL not so.

The recruiting effort at Michigan has to be easy compared to most schools. He basically can pick whomever he wants. Add to this, he makes millions, which is why he won’t leave Michigan. His next move is retiremen, but who knows when.

He would have left if the Vikes offered. Now that I read the story (Harbaugh was beat out for the job), his saying he will be at Michigan for "as long as you will have me" is even funnier. When HCRE said the same thing he had just gotten beat out for the Ga. Tech job.

Hey good for Michigan. Regardless of whether Harbaugh botched the interview or not, the biggest winner here is UConn when we smack them up and down the field next year in the big house.
