I have been a Michigan fan ever since i was a kid. lloyd carr was not doing so great so they fired him and hired rich rodriguez. naturally i was excited and thought that the new coach would bring out a powerhouse football team. i was wrong not only do i dislike rich but so does all of the other football coaches at michigan. this year has been a huge dissapointment, michigan has lost 5 games and only won 2. they are rated 8th out of 11 teams in the big ten. at the beginning of the season sam mcguffie a running back was recruited he was amazing during highschool but this year he has not been doing so well and i think it is because of his team. i feel bad for him because i feel like he could be an all-star player. also after watching the games i feel like the michigan team looks slow. they definetly do not look as fast as they were 2 years ago when they had mike hart, chad henne, braylon edwards, and lamar woodley. i have deemed this year to be a failure for the wolverines and i cant help but to look forward to next season where they are recruiting a new quarterback who is supposed to be amazing.

Brian,
Sorry to hear about your Wolverines. (I have two good friends from college who teach in Ann Arbor, and they are might sad, too).
That said, it'd be nice to see you take a critical examination at this issue. Why did they fire Lloyd Carr? Was it only because of that embarrassing loss to App. St.? What of the gaudy contract given to Rodriguez? What impact does a successful team have on the univ. as a whole (# of appl., alumni $, etc.)?
