Rich Rod is a failure in life


Naughty Nudgette Jenna Haze throws a big "F-YOU" to Rich Rod

Rich Rod's response "get a life"
Let's make one thing perfectly clear, I can't stand this guy. I never liked him at West Virginia and when my beloved Wolverines hired him I almost puked. From day 1, this guy showed that he doesn't understand or know Wolverines football. Handing the "1" to J.T. Floyd proved that. For the Wolverine fans that are optimistic about this guy's success there, you have got to be kidding. There is no way that the university is going to give this guy more than three years of leeway, and one of those years is already over. And we saw how good that was.
"Okay look, I know it looks like a lot of plays, but really, I only know how to call three of them"

This guy struck gold when he recruited Pat White out of Bama and Slaton. There wasn't any genius in recruiting them, they were three stars. Have you heard any great clamour about last year's recruitment of Pat White's little brother, Coley? NO. Pat White, in my opinion is one of those once in a decade type of players. I rank him right up there with Tommy Frazier, Peyton and Keith McCants. Rich Rod caught lightning in a bottle with those two guys and his limited spread playbook worked because of it. To call him a genius of the spread is like calling a lottery winner a genius for picking the right numbers. They both just got lucky.

"Ouch, I think I got Rich Rods down there. I really need to watch who I'm sleeping with"
And Rich Rod got even luckier because LSU was playing for the BCS Championship and The Hat didn't want to leave. Michigan was so sure that they would get The Hat, that they put pressure on Carr to step down.
Once the hat said no, they looked at Schiano. Surely a coach at lowly Rutgers would want to come to the Big House. But Schiano stayed. Now they had egg on their face. They thought "Holy Crap" we look like imbeciles what the hell are we gonna do. And they went off of Rich Rod's record at West Virginia during the Pat White era only. They didn't stop to think that the players on the team currently have no business whatsoever playing in Rich Rod's "SCHEME."

Look, do you think that if UM Athletic Director Bill Martin was told in the Spring, "Hey, if you hire this guy you'll have Nick Sheridan running the offense for the next three years," that he would have said yea that sounds great.

I have nothing against Nick Sheridan, he's a fierce competitor. He's just not my idea of who should be starting at the QB position.


"Man, when they recruited me here, they didn't tell me it would be like this"

When Rich Rod got there, his first order of business should have been to sit down with Ryan Mallette and say "Hey, when I was at Tulane, I had Shaun King and he threw the ball" Shaun King threw the ball for 3500 yards and 38 td's for Christ sake. But no, Rich Rod expected all world talent Terrelle Pryor to follow him up to the Big House. It was his over inflated ego that was to be his downfall.

The guy has the playbook to run the offense that fits his personnel right now, but he's so pig headed that he simply doesn't care. He would rather put the worst, I'll say that again, the worst team in the history of Michigan football out on the field than admit that maybe his spread should be saved up until he gets a mobile quarterback.
"It's an old Sicilian message, it means that your team sleeps with the fishes"

To the optimistic UM fans who think that this guy is going to turn it around I say "May you get what you wish for." But that phrase isn't an old blessing, it's actually an old Chinese curse. I took Eastern Philosophy at Cornell, twice, no big deal.
Tate Forcier is the savior, come on, the guy won't even touch the field next year.

"Look Honey, I hijacked that place, and they gave me millions to do it!"
I'll end this rant with something I hope never to see again
