On to what's on my mind -- Michigan & Rich Rodriguez. While I understand there's the argument that he's implementing a new system, the results just aren't there at all so far. I guess what I'd like to ask those that'll know better than me, is how have Rodriguez's recruiting classes been? There's a lot of hype surrounding Tate Forcier, but I don't agree that he's a special player at QB -- he might fit the scheme well down the road, though.
Last season was a bad one in Ann Arbor, and the Wolverines just don't look very good at all this year, either. Will Rich Rodriguez recruit & coach well enough to keep his job? How much leash does he have left without a gigantic turnaround in '09?
2008: 3-9 (2-6 Conf.)
2009: 5-4 (1-4 Conf.) ** to date
I'll admit this may easily just be a knee-jerk response to watching UM get their butts handed to them at Illinois, but this wasn't the first UM game I've watched this season in which I wondered about these issues.
