Praise be to Tebow!

A day I've been waiting so long for!

Wooooooooooooohoooooooooooooooooooooooooooo time to find my Michigan gear

[Broncojef]

ESPN reporting the only way he leaves Stanford is a shot at the NFL. He isn't interested in Michigan.

Damn! Wiki is fast:

Richard A. Rodriguez (born May 24, 1963[1]) is an American football coach and former player. Most recently, he was the head football coach at the University of Michigan from 2008 to 2010, a position from which he was dismissed on January 5, 2011.

Michigan should offer Jim Harbaugh the Upper Peninsula to come coach the Wolverines.

sucks that Michigan was given all of the Upper peninsula in exchange for Toledo going to Ohio. Wisconsin geographically should have had the UP, most of us here would even give up Milwaukee to have it. There are some really pretty areas up there.

I found it funny today that they were talking on ESPN about how Michigan thinks they are a national team and how they aren't anymore....how much more regional they have become....I had to laugh out loud....Michigan has become a joke and I'm sure Bo is turning over about now

Yep....I love the Upper Peninsula and used to spend at least a few weeks almost every summer there when I was a kid, as I had a buddy that moved up there when he was in the 5th grade. He lived right across the road from Lake Superior.

It's just because they are down. I live in the worst major city for college football in the US and Michigan is still relevant news. They're a big, storied program. Lots of people are curious and college football is better when Michigan and Ohio are good.

[Kaylore]

Wow. Bill Walsh II?

[BroncosMT]

Just wondering who in the NFL is getting those type of dollars and how many are?

[broncofan2438]

I could see why he would want to coach in SF, its basically across the water from Stanford and he could be close to his family, but cmon man, SF???

[Pony Boy]

They still have the best helmets in all football....
