Back in December, I predicted the 1 year coach in waiting would not work. In fact, it was the most bizarre college coaching situation I have ever seen. The first day of business school they tell you partnerships don't work. This one didn't even last 6 months before Bill tried to go project "National Enquirer" on Dana Holgorsen.
Well done Bill! Your first head coaching job you got fired for a racially-insensitive comment. You get fired from your second head coaching job because you tried to air your coach-in-waiting dirty laundry in the media.
I see now why the WVU fans were so upset when RR left. It set the the program back years. He is available for hire if the Mountaineers current coach goes on another casino bender.
Think about all the drama this program has had the past 3 years.
- A healthy QB thump (or finger I don't remember) away from the NC game

- Michigan pays most of the buy out
- NCAA investigates RR practice schedule at Michigan and WVU

- Pryor signs with Drew Rosenhaus. Shocker, I guess Rob Pelinka wasn't available?
- Kyle Dodson a 4 Star Offensive Line prospect spurns the Buckeyes and committed to Wisconsin last night. Michigan was also recruiting Kyle. Many had thought he was a Columbus lock.
- Love this quote from new Wolverine Erik Magnuson on taking other visits: “I’m not sure. I will definitely be going to Michigan for an official visit, and if coach is ok with me taking an official visit to place where I have friends at, then I might do that, but if not then it’s not a big deal to me. I’m going to Michigan. I don’t care about any other school.”
