LSU fired a coach for that. Maybe Michigan has lower standards.


Well, LSU doesn't exactly set the standards if college football these days.

Here's a comparison with the only standard that matters:

Saban took over team that went 22-15 over the previous three years. Saban's first two years, Bama went 7-6 and 12-2, and 1-1 in bowl games.

Harbaugh took over a team that went 20-18 over the previous three years. In his first two years, Michigan went 10-3 and 10-3, and 1-1 in bowl games.

Harbaugh's doing just fine.

In that 2nd year they were 12-0 and ranked #1 after the regular season, losing to the eventual national champion in the SEC Championship game. The 3rd year they went 13-0 and won the national championship. Do you expect Jim to do the same?

Harbaugh's 2nd team has the most players of all schools at the NFL combine (as did his 1st team as all of those players were on the roster). He may have taken over a team that didn't win, but it was clearly stocked with a solid roster.

Again, unless he radically beats expectations of finishing 3rd in his division in 2017, he will have gone 3 seasons without even winning a division, led alone the B1G, go to a playoff or win a National Title.

For all the loud mouth asshattery that's a pretty meh accomplishment.
