As Kermit mentioned yesterday, The Smith was fired from The Michigan State University.

Today the speculatin’ and hootin’ and hollerin’ and what-not begin.  And a Michigan (SUCKS!) paper has mentioned the unmentionable as a possible candidate for the job:

Tyrone Willingham, University of Washington head coach

Pros: Former MSU player has integrity and extensive head-coaching experience. Also has NFL ties.

Con: Coaching ability disproved questioned when fired from Notre Dame.

Lord, I don’t ask for much.  I mean, I was really only kidding when I asked for that car, the new job, a woman who would hold me.  And I know you came thru in a big way in the past, but I need to ask you for this one little favor: PLEASE LET THIS HAPPEN.  See, the University of Washington is, well, far away.  And Notre Dame doesn’t play them much.  And few things would put a spring in the step of the world’s children like a yearly match-up between Weis and Ty Willie.  So please, please, please, please, please, please, please, please with whipped cream and a cherry on top, make this happen.  Please!  I swear I will never, ever, ask for anything again.  Ever.  Seriously.  I mean it this time.

If nothing else, think of the comedic value as Ty tries to recruit against Michigan, OSU, and Notre Dame.
