If I'm the Michigan AD, sell me on Matt Rhule.

I have no idea what's gonna happen but I can't shake the thought that it's pretty damn significant that Harbaugh is interviewing for a job to potentially leave Michigan on national signing day. Just has the feel of a meeting to iron out final details IMO, but we'll see. Even if he does, prepare to be disappointed when Rhule is shot down as a potential candidate pretty damn quickly. Not just due to his abysmal failure here and his arguably even more abysmal record vs. ranked teams during his college coaching stints, but because I also can't see Michigan going for another coach who almost certainly has another NFL shot dancing in his head if things go well for him. I mean, they'd be getting spurned by an alum. That would sting. I really think they'll be looking for someone who is focused on the college game. Everyone wants a Dabo Swinney.

The reports I've seen were less than glowing of the National team QBs who practiced today (Pickett, Ridder, and Strong).

Someone is gonna take a shot on Willis' raw talent. Yeah, I'm paying a lot more attention to the prospect he didn't name. A GM isn't gonna go around talking about the guy he actually wants.

Interesting that there's one top QB prospect that he specifically DIDN'T mention...

My guess (which has basically been confirmed by Rhule) is that Fitts has input but the ultimate decision is Rhule's to make.

Fair enough, but damn... their OL is bad. Maybe their bad OL is just better coaches.

This. After the Combine I'm pretty sure I said I wouldn't spend a draft pick on Greg Little. ANY draft pick. It's impossible to overstate how trash he looked doing those drills.

We'll see if it holds true. Because damned if the Bengals ain't in the SB with an OL as bad as ours. Sucks going up against Aaron Donald with a porous IOL though...

I agree with everything Fitts said... and that you said. The Panthers passing on Fields and Slater to take a CB... yeah, that doesn't line up with what Fitts is saying here.

Someone needs to go and breakdown his stats in inclimate weather. I could be misremembering, but I seem to recall his play dropping off dramatically when it started raining.

Evidently Pickett doesn't think so.

Yeah, that definitely doesn't seem insignificant. Missing national signing day to go interview? That's BIG.

If Rhule was an old west gunslinger his nickname would've been Plaxico Cheddar Bob.

Now do Rhule.

Dude is a fraud. He's a snake oil salesman, not a coach. Good for him for making a poo ton of money but his legacy in the sport will be that if a joke.

Eli Apple sucks but he's a helluva lot better of a CB than Rhule is a coach. Tepper should've fired his ass and told him he'll never coach in the NFL again. That one would've been pretty safe.

Preview

Anyone who had watched him any decent amount already knew he was 6' even on a good day. I half expected him to come in sub-6'.

Damn. So he really does have 8" hands.

Rhule assures Rhule of another losing season.

Josh Allen was a UDFA if you're drafting purely on production.

If those people have actually watched both players and come to that conclusion, stop paying attention to their opinions on football.

What are you basing this on? Stop listening to what these idiots SAY and start watching what they actually DO. They say rebuild. They say five year plan. Then they go out and make cap and draft asset crippling moves at QB and overpay mediocre vets out of desperation. We have one top 100 draft pick. Our cap situation is mediocre. We're getting worse.
