Brady Hoke was 19-7.

According to a Chris Vannini tweet, UM led in the last minute of 4 of those 6 losses, too.

Shit, I remember one game they lead with ten seconds left and had the ball. But lost. At some point someone has to say maybe it's the coach.

No one in their fanbase or media will suggest that.
To wit:

Did we get fucked? Yeah, kinda.

Did we gift the game away with turnovers? Most assuredly.

Would we all have rather won the game? Bet your fucking life.

But...let's be clear about what happened today. The game was close, but there was no doubt who the better team was. Jim Harbaugh took a bunch of scrubs who couldn't beat Rutgers two years ago and went into Columbus and controlled the game, almost from start to finish. Wilton Speight couldn't get a scholarship from NC State, and now he's going to be a first round draft pick in a couple of years. If Darboh and Chesson were Seniors in high school this year, they wouldn't even be on our board. What's going to happen when all the 5 stars arrive? And make no mistake, they're coming.

Let's be clear about something else: Jim Harbaugh is on another level from Jumbo Fisher. It's just true. Ask 32 NFL GMs who they'd rather have between the two. 31 will tell you Harbaugh without hesitation. The Cleveland Browns would go for Fisher, but that only galvanizes the point I'm making. Jimbo Fisher had no answers. FSU won that game because of turnovers, blown/missed calls and Dalvin improvising enough plays to stay competitive. There were several points in that game where it was clear that even Jimbo Fisher knew he was in over his head. It was checkers vs chess. Jimbo was on the ropes trying to avoid the knockout the entire day. Don Brown controlled their offense. Jimbo Fisher is counting his lucky stars right now, but he's also wondering how in the actual fuck he's going to beat this staff going forward.

Try to see the big picture. Jim Harbaugh is orders of magnitude a better coach than Jimbo Fisher. The 5 stars are coming. When the recruiting talent is equal, Jimbo Fisher won't stand a chance (and won't want any part of this). Harbaugh is Saban and then some. Saban got his ass handed to him as he waddled back to college. Jim Harbaugh was 6 yards away from winning a super bowl with Colin Kaepernick. With the same team, Urban Meyer goes 4-12 two years in a row and gets back in his lane.

When Dylan McCaffery is throwing to Donovan Peoples-Jones and Nico Collins, there will be no answers. Look, I loved this year's team, but the truth is there are only 5 or 6 players on this team that could compete for a starting job at Michigan in 2018. This is going to be Alabama 2.0. We have the best coach in America by a wide margin, and now he's seething fucking mad and hell bent on handing it to them for a decade. And he will. Try to see the big picture...

"Harbaugh, nervously, admitted he used it for chewing tobacco during the play. As Albom was about to tell him to forget about it, that it was no big deal, Harbaugh set off on a mission to recover the cup. Albom writes:
Before I could finish the words "never mind," he was running across the theater. He raced to a trash can.

"Jim" I yelled, "really, no big —"

Too late. He was rifling through the trash. He found the cup, came marching back examining it — and then apparently decided it was too dirty to return. He turned and ran to an usher.

"Excuse me," he said, "where's the nearest bathroom?"

"Jim!" I hollered. "I don't need it that —"

.......

This sort of thing is typical for Harbaugh. Recently, Harbaugh told Lars Anderson of Bleacher Report about how he was once so fascinated with the work a traffic cop was doing at an intersection that he pulled over and watched her for a half-hour.

Harbaugh's personality can wear on people. A former NFL teammate told Anderson:

"You can’t even have long meetings with him because his mind will start to wander and you’ll have no freaking idea what he’s talking about. His personality and his weirdness wear people down over time, and after four, five years, you just don’t want to deal with the guy anymore.""

It's a good question. There is certainly some speculation from a player's brother that it was odd that young Mr. Peppers did not watch the bowl game from the sidelines and what that might possibly mean.

One of the most talented Michigan players
of all time and yet he didn't get to accomplish much in terms of winning things. No Big Ten titles, no East division championships and didn't even get to play in a bowl game let alone win one. I am a little sad for him, but he will have a great future no matter what he decides.

The fact that he was up there texting when the game was on the line tells you all you need to know. Dude doesn't give a fuck about Michigan.

Do you think all those Bama players or Kentucky hoops players give a fuck about those schools?

Temporary stops along to the big leagues. Professional decisions for those guys, not because they love the school. Same deal with Peppers.

Looks like Conley and Hooker from OSU are going pro.

Both are in the late first early second category. Good decisions for them. If Lattimore also goes pro, they are losing 3/4 of starting secondary.
