Cynical Posted December 21, 2014 Posted December 21, 2014 Harbaugh "built" Stanford into a powerhouse? Total BS. His success only began when Luck showed up. I guess Chuck Pagano "built" the current Colts success as well... Let's deal with Luck at Indy first. Having the first overall draft pick is completely different from recruiting. It does not matter if 32 teams wanted Luck, only 1 team at time got to choose if they wanted to pick him or not. In college recruiting, ALL teams have access to a player they covet. The player chooses which program/team to play for. Which brings us back to the first part. Harbaugh amassed a 29-6 record at San Diego State. He became the HC at Stanford starting the 2007 season. Luck accepted a scholarship offer from Stanford in 2008. Who recruited Luck? That would be Harbaugh. So tell me again how Harbaugh did NOT build Stanford up? As for Michigan--it's recent QBs have been Devon Gardner, Denard Robinson and Tate Forcier. As for Bama, everyone wants to play in the SEC. Once again, when Saban came to UA, recruits that had no interest in playing for UA suddenly became interested in playing for UA because of the HC they hired. And yes, I am talking about some recruits that had soft commitments outside of the SEC. Do not underestimate what a HC with a great resume can bring to a college program, especially one like Michigan. All those problems you think are there, will suddenly disappear.
mannc Posted December 21, 2014 Posted December 21, 2014 Love? I know Marrone is not perfect but he's the best coach this team had since Wade Phillips, who wasn't perfect either but we (Ralph) made a huge mistake firing him. Don't mistake love with objectivity, which you clearly lack . Yeah, what a tragedy it would be if Marrone left us. I apologize for my lack of objectivity.
Bubba Gump Posted December 21, 2014 Posted December 21, 2014 Why would Michigan even want Marrone? They can't be that stupid.
Wiz Posted December 22, 2014 Posted December 22, 2014 Why would Michigan even want Marrone? They can't be that stupid. As a buckeye fan, I'm all for it!!!
TAinLack. Posted December 22, 2014 Posted December 22, 2014 Should be, Gardner is graduating this year! Hopefully the concussion situation doesn't make him transfer.
notwoz Posted December 22, 2014 Posted December 22, 2014 I'm happy to see him leave ... and take Hackett with him.
Ted William's frozen head Posted December 22, 2014 Posted December 22, 2014 Marrone deserves some respect around here. Don't understand Buffalo fans and media. Can you spell H a c k e t t ?
Freddie's Dead Posted December 22, 2014 Posted December 22, 2014 I'll buy that fat #$% Maroon a one-way ticket from BUF to DTW out of my own pocket.
