listen to him every day--agree with him 50% of the time, but still listen....and IMO, that's what it's all about with Cowherd.

Take some comfort, he was wrong about this prediction regarding Durant and Oden :http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LulSsTbflGU

Granted, nearly everyone was saying this at the time.

I still think he can have success in the Big 10, but his defense is holding him back.

The thing about his offense though is that it's so reliant on the talent that he has. His offense can score lots of points (like it's done this year) if he has the right kind of athletes in his system. When he doesn't have a Pat White or Denard Robinson taking the snaps his offense isn't as effective. The only problem with this is that it really limits the pool of talent that Michigan can recruit from. They can't go after the best quarterback available because if it's someone like Ryan Mallet he won't fit their system. He can only go after the best mobile QB available. That means fewer players to recruit from with just as many teams going after them. A school like Ohio State that doesn't run one specific offensive system can be successful and win games with a game manager like Krenzel, a running QB like Smith, a pocket passer like Boeckman, or a hybrid like Pryor.

This is and has been my thoughts as well. The Denards and Pat Whites won't be there every year. I just don't know whether or not the AD, alumni etc. take this into consideration. Then of course there could be the drop in sending players to the league, always been high at UM. I could be wrong, but I don't see that number staying high should they continue to run this system.

I think he's gotta win one or the other to keep his job. He hasn't performed well in big games either at Michigan, let alone winning ( I don't consider one win over Notre Dame a big game when both teams were down). If they lose, they better lose in double OT or something crazy by 3 pts or less and at least show his club was in the game

I remember a few years ago during the Kobe "i want to be traded" fiasco, Colin on his radio show stated he heard from a VERY RELIABLE source that Kobe just got traded (never gave specifics).

I have heard from someone I know up in AnnArbor that rumors are going around that UM basically has a buyout check waiting once the season is over. He said that big money UM people want RR out as soon as possible. I don't know how valid it is, could be just a rumor...but I know that he isn't a personal favorite of too many at UM. If he loses the last two games, him getting canned isn't out of the question with all thats gone on at UM the past three years.

Michigan isn't going to beat Ohio State, with or without RichRod, and not just this year, but for a long..long..long long time.

The guy just needs a defense. Really that's all they need because Denard Robinson is probably the best playmaker in College Football but man they can't stop anyone

Herbie just said on GameDay that the one thing that would shock him today would be if Michigan forces Wisconsin to punt at all today.

The only thing that makes me scratch my head about this statement....how good would OSU's offense be without TP? Auburn without Cam?

Don't most teams recruit talent that fits their system? Or just talent in general?

Perhaps the best thing for Michigan's program would be OSU beating them 100-0 next week.

Most teams have systems that allow at least a little flexibility. You're well aware that Rich Rod's system is fairly finite. So talent in general is more likely the case.

I understand the point. But I think it's fair to say if you take most teams' best player away it would hurt them. I think the point is exaggerated a bit in krambman's post. Michigan seems to do fine with Forcier in, and he's not the same type as Robinson.

I agree to an extent. But Tate seems to throw the bad, bad pick at points where it kills them. IDK it's kinda tough to pass judgment given the lack of playing time to compare.

Yes, yes he does. But he runs the "system" just fine.

I think Rich Rod gets 1 more season and the final on his contract, but I think he is gone after next year. There doesn't look to be much hope for his defense to get better anytime soon and the team will endure a similar season next year as they have this year.

Cowherd is a clown . . . a master at stating (and constantly restating) the obvious, but as if it's some incredible insight.

Clowns makes clowny predictions. Therefore, Rich Rod will not lose his job.
