That search firm is going to contact a bunch of people, so this isn't really news, I guess.  But if he could turn this into an extension, it would be his third since this summer.

 

sure - a good way to obscure your real direction is to move in all directions.

I don't doubt this is true. But I also wonder.... why? If I'm Kalen DeBour or Kenny Dillingham or [insert top choice here], does the AD really matter after I sign a 7-year, $70MM contract with a $50MM buyout? Michigan is a top-tier program with top-tier resources and top-dollar donors. That's not going to change with a new AD or new President.

Do we really think that new administration is going to come in and say "I don't like football" or "I don't pledge institutional support to football" in such a way that will actually impact the head coach's job? Stephen Ross and Larry Ellison are the real people in charge and they aren't going anywhere.

that's an agent talking to a reporter saying "youre going to have to pay my client even more money to take a job in this situation."

nothing more than posturing.

Alabama giving DeBoer an extension and then getting beat by Oklahoma would be the funniest thing in a while.  I just don't see anything being done unless Alabama wins a couple games in the playoffs.

Mike McDaniel

The coach of the Seahawks? One of the favorites to win the super bowl?

Why would he leave that to become a HC of a college team right now?

Yes, the coach of the Dolphins.       

Mike MacDonald  would not want it, and Michigan would be absolutely tone deaf to hire anyone who has anything to do with Jim Harbaugh.   Not saying they wouldn't, but it would be a very stupid move.  They need to completely cut ties to Jim Harbaugh - COMPLETELY.    (And I guess, in a strange way, Stephen Ross owns the Dolphins and he basically bankrolled Harbaugh's nonsense, so McDaniel could be out). 

They could end up with Biff for a year.    He's basically the modern take on Steve Fisher. 

 

I do think Michigan is going to go young with the next coach, unless they just can't find anyone

 

Uncertainty with the AD doesn't help.      But they also have an interim president.  What a ****in' mess.

they need to decide Warde's fate quickly, and I assume they realize that.

michigan is a top 5 job in college football.

the biggest issue might be that coaches will have to get rid of all their onlyfans accounts!

Best possible outcome -- Warde is out there finding replacements for both Moore and himself. I think I said it before, but it seems to me that only way Warde comes through this without being too wounded in the org is if it's know on the inside that Moore was not his 1st choice. And that just doesn't seem likely to have been the case.
