the media was really premature in saying he got fired. It is not a done deal. If they can’t get Harbaugh, I think it is going to make it difficult to fire RR. Who is coming Hoke? If I were Brandon, if I can’t get my guy, I keep RR. I would stipulate that he coaches only the offense directly. Bring in a defensive guru and let him put a system in place. Bring in a stud special teams guy as well. If RR doesn’t agree, boot him. Barwis needs to learn how to train guys to compete in the Big Ten. This isn’t the Big East. You need a blend of speed and power. They aren’t exclusive of each other. OSU looks pretty solid. They are redeeming the Big Ten somewhat. By the way, I was in Columbus last Sunday. They don’t hate us anymore, they feel pity. They said they love RR. They also said the game is pretty boring now that U of M is a doormat for OSU.
