Boomer Sooner!

Basically a hybrid LB/S. Spent a ton of time in the box, basically splitting 40/40/20 splits at LB/S/nickel alignments.

Gerry from the top rope.

Depends on the reporting chain regardless of pro or college. Vrabel, Reid, Shanahan, et al, have the GMs report to them. Just like Cal, Stanford, OU the GM is either the co-report or supervisor of the coach.

North Dakota is nice because @Joe Zuralives in South Dakota

college football coaches are the ultimate GMs of their programs. They have much more final say so over everything. Rare for NFL HCs to have final say so.

The irony of all this is PE deals go wrong when the overpay, not underpay.

Mack sort of, kind of leaving? We're going through this again?

I’m not here to canonize private equity. Nobody’s confusing Bain Capital with the Peace Corps. But comparing PE in college football to the USFL is kind of like comparing a restaurant remodel to a meteor strike. Same universe, wildly different stakes. The USFL face-planted because a handful of billionaires tried to cosplay NFL owners overnight. Private equity doesn’t do cosplay. It does spreadsheets, leverage, and “please sign here so we can fire half your department.” Good? Bad? Depends whose ox is getting gored. What PE does reliably is take systems already drifting toward semi-pro reality and say out loud what everyone else is whispering: “You people are running a nine-figure entertainment product with the governance structure of a church bake sale.” That’s why this is happening. Not because PE is noble — but because college football created a vacuum big enough to pull in capital, lawyers, and consultants like a tractor beam. Will they get it right? Maybe. Will they price things “correctly”? Only if you think “correctly” means “in a way that maximizes returns and occasionally detonates traditions.” But here’s one place we definitely agree: Give it time — because nobody breaks things faster than private equity except college football trying to “fix” itself.

Bingo…Let’s all be honest about this… there are WAY more coaches than we know or care to admit are having affairs, it gets covered up if you win, and if you don’t, it comes out. doesnt just stop at affairs, college and professional sports is a dirty, dirty place… but winning covers up a lot.

It’s the same in college….you cannot control other teams offering your players the bag, having unexpected attrition/injuries leading to poor results, etc etc.

You sacrifice control as a NFL HC. Many things are out of your control that could wind up getting you fired.

I forgot he was on the team. I think he was getting love from OTF in the off-season but never played meaningful snaps this year .

Apparently inapproriate relations is the only fireable offense at Michigan....only when they want you gone in the first place.

What does the Michigan AD have to do be terminated?? Isn't it obvious that they should stay away from anyone with any ties to Harbaugh, including Minter? How much more does Harbaugh have to tell you he picks scum for his staff. Maybe if he had a murderer play tight end for him it would be so obvious... oh wait, that didn't even come up with Urban Meyer

You’re right CJ. A little bit of scandal can get looked over when you win a championship, but when Harbaugh hightailed it they should have looked nation wide and not double down on someone that was heavily involved in the scandals. Michigan is a blue blood. You can get nearly anyone you want. You don’t promote someone from within with not alot of experience. They messed up right there when they could have righted the ship. Reminds me a little of Texas in a different kind of way. No scandals, but the coaching changes after Mack Brown set us back years. You usually have to give a guy at least 3 years so making the wrong coaching hire is hard to get out of for awhile. We had two back to back. Thanks Patterson. Basketball too.

Who wants to be a "Michigan Man"!?
