With a high enough buyout any job is worth taking.
-
Who would hire the next coach if not Warde? We don't have time to hire both an AD and a coach in the next three weeks. If Warde can hire DeBour or Freeman, he should. Then, he can be given his walking papers.
-
Warde is also a ginormous human being.
-
Assuming these periods don't "stack" I expect Michigan will hire a coach by late December, so that in reality there will only be one portal period. And if they poach a DeBour or Freeman it will be absolute chaos.

It's not unheard of for someone to sit in detention for 24-72 hours before getting arraigned. Depends on the county, judge, courts, case load, charges, etc. That's regardless of suicide watch. Suicide watch in the jails is usually just an isolation cell, more regular supervision, and special clothing.

WCPO would do well to just establish a Michigan Football division for these yearly scandals. They can handle all tunnel fiascos, former coach assaults, disputes between coaches and the NCAA, and gun charges involving defensive linemen.

Apparently the source on this very distracting story is a lesser-known insider, Marde Wanuel.

I’m pretty sure this is AI. I have some limited (not first hand) knowledge of the Washtenaw County Jail. They don’t release mugshots publicly and they tend to allow inmates to keep their street clothing on while in overnight detention awaiting arraignment, with some exceptions.

I think there’s a reason he keeps getting interviewed. If you want a program in crisis to have stability, confidence, and competent leadership he’s your man. Of course stability and competent leadership does not necessarily include winning. He’s not a strong Xs and Os coach (which is why he and Morton are probably not going to stay with the Lions past this year), but I do think he’s better than the end of his Stanford tenure would have you believe. For his entire tenure, Stanford Admissions would not permit football players to transfer in unless they were going to be admitted as a transfer anyway. Mind you, Stanford admits like 30 transfer students a year, and half of them are armed forces veterans. Imagine running a college football program where the transfer portal was a one-way street and it’s no wonder he went 3-9. Anyway that diatribe over, he wouldn’t be a good hire and they shouldn’t do it, I’m just throwing out names. Also I met him on Thanksgiving and he was very nice even though I interrupted his family time pregame.
-
The funniest outcome would be for Michigan to hire Kalen DeBour and Alabama to hire Lane Kiffin.
-
Couple other names that might be explored: David Shaw, Brian Griese, Larry Foote, Pat Narduzzi, Lance Leipold, Kliff Kingsbury, Robert Saleh, Zach Orr
-
I feel bad for his family and hope he gets the help he needs.

Warde won't go unless the Board of Regents is madder than a hornet's nest at him. An Interim President won't can him and it's more likely that the BOR is going to toe the company line with an evolving situation like this. They like football but they aren't going to kid themselves into thinking they can find the next coach (or knowing who should). It's possible a "holistic evaluation" into athletics is kicked off with the next administration though and a year later he "mutually" parts ways into some "bigger and better" role elsewhere.
-
I thought this was known a month ago. It not being officially official may be why I haven't gotten my invoice for next year though.

Michigan didn’t want to launch what would have been a very difficult head coaching search late in the game fresh off a national championship, so they did the easy thing and hired their OC. Now, they will need to launch what will be a very difficult head coaching sewage late in the game fresh off an unmitigated disaster of a head coaching exodus. I’m not sure this could have been prevented. There were questions about his ability to be the head coach of a major college football program. There were not (to my knowledge) questions of his moral integrity. Sometimes people get a **** ton of money and power and lose their mind. It’s hard to blame Warde for that. But, the lack of even a consideration to hiring anyone but Moore does look very bad in hindsight.

1. Jay Harbaugh 2. Jesse Minter 3. Curt Cignetti 4. Kalen DeBour 5. Jedd Fisch 6. Kenny Dillingham 7. John Harbaugh 8. Nick Saban 9. Jon Gruden 10. Biff Poggi (extended interim) Probably one of these ten.
-
They demoted Schlissel for creepy consensual emails. If the Twitter-verse is right, Moore did much more than send creepy emails. To answer the underlying question, I do think they probably still ultimately fire him if he beats Ohio State and is in the playoff right now. I also think they (along with quite literally every other major college football program and every team that is in the playoffs) would have "continued investigating" until the offseason. I'm not saying that's morally right, but it's the state of college football.
-
It counts for Harbaugh when it's convenient to count for Harbaugh and counts for Moore when it's convenient to count for Moore. What's confusing?
-
Just wait until Michigan hired Brian Kelly, then the world will explode. /s just to be more clear this time.
-
Sherrone leaves as the first coach since Gary Moeller to have a winning record against Ohio State.
-
I probably could have put and "/s" at the end, but I was mostly being facetious (other than Jay, which is the only realistic name I could think of). I also don't think they will ask Dusty May to coach both football and basketball.
-
Jay is probably where I would put my money right now. He's 36, lots of experience at Michigan, lots of experience recruiting. And as you said, easy in a search where the train has long since left the station.
-
Who? Jay Harbaugh? Urban Meyer? Poaching Pat Fitzgerald from MSU? That'd be pretty funny. A year of Biff Poggi? Dusty May to expand his duties? Jesse Minter might entertain it, but he'd probably want the NFL cycle to conclude first and they can't sit on their hands until February only for him to go to the Giants.
