Perhaps it’s just that they got sick of trying to beat Ohio State and Jim Tressel, or that they’ve realized they can’t beat Notre Dame and Charlie Weis at recruiting even when ND goes 3-9, but the recent and rampant rumors about Michigan (sucks!) Head Coaching search seem to indicate they no longer take football seriously.
Meanwhile, if the Ferentz to Michigan (sucks!) rumors turn out to be rumors, maybe Michigan (sucks!) could set their sites on Chan Gailey! Apparently GaTech is starting to take football seriously. Hey GaTech, I know a coach with experience coaching football at a school with “high academic standards.”
With this Monday Bloodbath and the previous bloodbaths of the weekend, you’ve got to start wondering about what assistants now have a lot of free time on their hands. If any of you know of really good, really unemployed assistants, please let us know about them. Yeah, we all know about Tenuta, but we don’t need a DC. Think he’d make a good LB coach?

Ben,
I don’t care. It was one game in a long series of games that will continue until the game dies, or Michigan (sucks!) just totally gives up on the sport. Given the hiring search and rumors, I’m thinking the latter is more likely. There’s always a chance your AD brightens up and hires a Brian Kelly or some such, however.
This one seems a little strange to me. Although I think Ferentz is actually a good coach he is definitely more suited to stay at Iowa. Not sure if Les Miles is the answer either, serious questions about his in game strategies. Hopefully this is just one of those crazy rumors that gets floated out there when any major coaching search starts up.
DTK, are you surprised Brian Kelly isn’t getting a stronger look, or do you think Kelly’s PR issues scared them off?
I assume you are referring to the “racial stuff”? I think it is a factor bu tht egeneral consensus seems to be that Kelly sees the NFL as the ultimate goal, UM does not want to be a stepping stone. I hope he does get a serious look though, dude can flat out coach.

Need any more help with your homework, Ben?
Bad Kermit,
That was dumb. Try harder.
Ben,
That was actually hilarious. Develop a sense of humor.
It took you 3 days to come up with that response? “Try harder,” indeed.
