How Long Till Rich Rod is Fired?

[Buzzman]

I really want to see him get fired. I hate his type of offense and he just seems like an all around douchebag. He is a horrible coach and I am actually hoping we lose to Western Michigan in the season opener just so he is gone, if not I expect a losing season once again this year and expect him gone after the season.

 

[Primetime]

They wont fire him for a while. They want his recruiting power.

 

[steeljake]

tears = recruiting power?

 

[The Buddha]

I think if Michigan has another season like last year he could be out the door at the end of this season.

I hope he fails as a coach but all of this complaining about practices stuff is out of control. Michigan just had it's worst season ever and kids are crying that the practices are too hard (or whatever the issue is). Just strange, and shows that Michigan is prolly gonna disappoint again this year.

I think you'll have to suffer a few more years. Rich Rod made bank. Too bad Pryor didn't sign with Michigan....

At first I thought the thread said "...Rich Rod is Fired!" I was in awe. I remember a time and I know Rich isnt Parcells but Dallas used to complain that Parcells was too hard at practice. Now Rich (and Parcells) is a rebuilding type of coach, he's not really the program maintaining guy. I doubt Michigan has another losing season becuz the players there at least have pride. Watch Rich will put a dog ass team together and then leave (or get fired) and Michigan will run the Big 10 for a long time.


Put this in ink with my name on it

Horrible coach??

60-26 record at WVU.. 4 Big East Championships & a BCS bowl victory. Dude can coach with the right players & a supportive school. 12-0 season at Tulane as an offensive coordinator as well..

Hey numb nuts get your shit together with the kids show tourney.

1 week... all there good QBs transfered and there best QB doesnt even tie up his laces

You can't be serious.

Steven Threet was a joke and Nick Sheridan is a walk-on.

And he doesn't get fired after this year, whoever thinks that is stupid.

You honestly think that if Michigan has another year like last year he is gonna be safe? Last year was his own fault from trying to put a sqaure peg in a round hole, he knew he didnt have the guys, so why the hell were we still trying to run a spread option? I thought Rich Rod could adapt to his teams..

 

[SHOGUN]

Fact: Spread option does not belong in the Big Ten full-time.

 

[The Buddha]

we wont fire him after 2 seasons....the adminstration knows hes bringing in all new talent to play with....they are recruiting players to adapt to his offense and what not......he def has 2 more years left in him...if no progress then good bye RichRod and good bye Forcier number 2

I could agree that he has this year and next to prove that he can make it work here...but i wouldnt be surprised if there were talks of him being shit canned after this year.

Fiction.

 

[SHOGUN]

Fiction.

Just because the Buckeyes have that spoon-eared Terrelle Pryor at the helm does not make it acceptable for the rest of league.

The Spread HD says hi.

 

[Woy]

dont worry your one good(11-1) season outta 4 came last year so you got a couple years til you have another good year(11-1) and so on

I won't even count 2008.

Since 2005:

Michigan: 27-11, 0 Big Ten Titles
Penn State: 29-9, 1 Big Ten Title (not counting last year)

And we'll be up there again this year, while you're near the bottom of the conference.

 

[SHOGUN]

Kinda like how the triple option wouldnt work in a BCS confrence...

Actually not like that at all. The more teams that choose to run the under center triple option, the better. I simply really dislike the spread option offense, especially for a conference that has historically prided itself on power running.

 

[PEYMAN18]

I loved Rich Rod. But if he doesn't prove himself for possibly the next two years he should be fired. It sucks that the Wolverines are "Rebuilding" But I believe that Rich Rod can get the job done.

 

[Buzzman]

Rich Rod was a joke, when he had "his players" it was one of the sloppiest offenses to watch. Yea they scored points in a conference dominated by offense, but the man had 4 plays. That shit doesnt work vs a good team 90% of the time.

Horrible coach??

60-26 record at WVU.. 4 Big East Championships & a BCS bowl victory. Dude can coach with the right players & a supportive school. 12-0 season at Tulane as an offensive coordinator as well.. I just think Michigan is a bad fit.

big east is a pussy conference

it will take rod time to build his team. If they keep losing to Appilacian St then he may be out the door rather quickly.

People think rich is a shitty coach. I think thats perfect for Michigan....i mean they are Michigan
