Wait, with Michigan hiring Whittingham, does that mean they’re no longer interested in PJ?

I can tell my grandchildren someday, with tears in my eyes, about my alma mater’s classic 2025 Rate Bowl championship.

Catch of the year!

UFL?

There were about 3 to 4 sequences against Iowa that need to be put in a capsule and studied by future civilizations for how shitty they were.

To any Michigan fan who discovers that Whittingham has the stench of Urban Meyer on him, even after just 2 years, he’s an acolyte. I’m not sure you understand the deep hatred Michigan fans have for Meyer and everything he’s touched.

Indiana has half of those in the last 2 years.

Michigan hiring an Urban Meyer acolyte would bring me an unnatural level of amusement.

I'm here more for the spewing.

Went to the White House with the Packers (Favre’s backup) after winning Super Bowl XXXI, but wore his Bears jersey because they didn’t get to go after winning in ‘85 due to the Challenger disaster, an idea his teammates blessed. I found that hilarious as a Packers fan.

Did you see that cauldron of beans they had post-game? The plane probably had to make an emergency stop somewhere in Tennessee to drop payload.

And Harbaugh left the program in shambles, despite (or maybe more accurately, because of) winning a national title. Keeping that connection is probably the last thing Michigan wants to do with this next coach. I’ve never understood the “we need one of our own” mentality. Get the best guy you can...

Word from my Michigan buddy is Jeff Brohm flew to Ann Arbor immediately following the Bush’s Beans Bowl in Boca today to interview for the UM job.

It's a very intense arrogance.

I sorely wish we had gotten a couple more injury-free years from him. He was an unstoppable force as a redshirt soph in 2019.

As far as I know, this is currently a one-way pursuit. DeBoer may have zero interest because of the situation at Michigan (I still can't believe Manuel has kept his job), or just because he likes his current job and wants to succeed at Alabama. But, if he wants to get back north and coach in the...

I don't disagree with any of this, I'm just passing along what my connected Michigan donor friend told me. But they are going after DeBoer, and getting him to commit now would be the opposite of a panic hire, it would be an absolute home run for Michigan. Does DeBoer want to do that, given the...

Someone named Trillion from Edina feels both very cliche and very on-brand.

He took Washington to the national championship game. He can coach. And who cares if he doesn't have ties to the state of Michigan. That feels like a Minnesota "not one of us" excuse. Did that help Sherrone Moore, or Brady Hoke, or Gary Moeller compete for national championships?

My Michigan booster buddy said the same thing.
