    Baylor is marginally better than last year. The difference is they couldn't pad their record vs. prairie view a&m types. If you just look at their conference performances 3 things are obvious. 1. their OL sucks - which is no surprise because it sucked last year. they cannot move the ball on the ground against teams with a pulse. 2. they can't pass rush against teams with a pulse. 3. ISU dominated them in the 2nd half, OSU dominated them in stoolwater.

    You could have told me they moved to conference USA and I wouldn't have been the wiser. CUSA, AAC,MAC they are all the same caliber to me.

    Based on what? Losing to shitty UCLA teams?

    Gotta be Iowa States fault

    I just noticed this. If Indiana wins the B10 in 2021, then sure. Go get him. But how often do head coaches leave and go to another team in the same conference.. as HC? I can't think of any in the B12 that have done it. Yes, they are 3-0 this year. So what? This year was over before it began. Nothing counts, huge asterisks next to anything that would be meaningful. Teams are playing in empty stadiums all over the country. Games get cancelled on a whim. Players can't stay focused. Forget this season its meaningless.

    You mentioned earlier his passion is not the same. Maybe it is time for a change. I don't know if he had a coaching break between the 49ers job and Michigan, but if not he's coaching since 2004. That has to be immensely draining, with the pressure at Michigan 10X as much as it would have been at Stanford or 100x of San Diego before that. It's either rare or becoming rare for coaches to get to 7-8 seasons with one program now and this is Harbaughs 6th with Michigan? People want wins now, all the time and nothing less. Or, coaches win and jump after 3-4 seasons to something different. I dunno. Just thinking different things here. So maybe he's worn out and needs to stop coaching for a while or completely. Who knows.

    They didn't lose 3 games at the end of 2018. They lost the first game, won ten straight (wins vs. Ranked teams Wisconsin, Michigan State, Pedophile State and Northwestern, who would finish ranked and with 9 wins) before losing to ohio state. If you want to go back 19 games and skip all of those wins, then he is 11-8, not 10-9. I feel your pain though. It's frustrating when the wins that you really want are not there. That's what it sounds like. What I would do is just be happy with the 9 win a year average that he is delivering.

    You added the 3 losses from the 2018 season, but you omitted all the wins.
  12. redswingline
    That game doesn't exist in my memory
  13. redswingline
    He is 20-9 in his last 29 games, which includes 2 bowl losses. 2018 10-3 2019 9-4 2020 1-2

    I guess to put it as briefly and concisely as possible: They weren't as good as their record would indicate and they lost to all of the good teams that they played. I wasn't impressed.

    I'm not focusing on the Georgia loss - it was the third point in my statement. Their offense was just horrible. Their game plan was hope special teams and defense can get you good field position, and throw it up to the one good WR they had and pray for a score. Almost all of their wins were by a handful of points and a several of those wins were luck. They could have easily been 5-7 last year. They just got the bounces and some help from refs i.e. the Tech game. Plus, they lost to OU twice. Then, finish the year getting owned.
  16. redswingline
    Good points. But then, who would do a better job? I think if they can him, they'll be pulling a Nebraska a'la Frank Solich .
  17. redswingline
    How good was Rhule though? Their offenses were shit, they didn't roll anyone other than Kansas and they got owned by Georgia. Other than the millions he collected to go to Carolina, I can see why he left. 3-4 win ceiling for that team this year if he had stayed

    I just glanced at his Michigan record. He's won 70% of his games there. Shouldn't Michigan be happy with that?
  19. redswingline
    P12 sucks. When was the last time they were good at anything? The early 2000s glory years @ USC?

    I've worked with some engineers from Tech, they are good guys. To be honest, I was a bit surprised to meet said people. I didn't know Tech grads did anything other than deliver my pizzas, let alone graduate from an engineering school.

    I remember when he was at Stanford, Harbaugh slammed Michigan's academics (as related to degrees that Michigan football players seek). Something along the lines of "they don't have a general studies degree at Stanford", and "You want these kids to have a quality degree for life after football". I assume he hasn't pushed for more stringent academics since he went back to Michigan.
  22. redswingline
    Let's look at the records. 2015 12-2....5 years after Harbaugh left. Bowl Win 2016 10-3 Bowl Win 2017 9-5 Bow Loss 2018 9-4 Bowl Win 2019 4-8 As Ed norton said, they are regressing. I don't think Shaw gets canned unless they put up 4-5 seasons in a row of sub .500 ball. Then if you can him, the question becomes...who do you try and hire? It takes a special coach to go there and be successful and deal with the bullshit that is California
  23. redswingline
    Yep, regression is happening...back to their historical average.
  24. redswingline
    Shaw's first season under .500 was last year. Not time to panic yet. Plus, it's Stanford. Their historical average for wins in a season is what, 3?
  25. redswingline
    Harbaugh doesn't have enough Texas kids on his Michigan roster. That's why they suck
