It's being reported by the same source that says Harbaugh is joining the Vikings.

And truthfully, it's not that hard to believe. Plenty of NFL failures turn into college successes.

It could all be bull, we'll see.

Same source also hints they likely are to hire from within   So you hire from within.  

then you get to brag about how the in-house guy was a better hire than Rhule and these other external guys you could of pursued but didn’t. 

and again, the Penn St aspect on top of Rhule imploding in the NFL.  Just don’t see how that is realistic for Michigan.

Like I said, they don't necessarily see Rhule like we do.

If they think his success at Temple and Baylor translates to them, he could be their guy.

But again, it's all hypothetical. For now, Harbaugh is still their head coach.

Well my imaginary money is on Matt Rhule never getting a call. 

then Matt Rhule leaks out how Rhule never wanted the job.

I’m on a bunch of Ohio State boards that are pretty plugged in to Michigan folks as well. Expectation is that they’ll hire internal (Josh Gattis most likely, slim chance of Mike Hart). But I wouldn’t rule out them checking out external candidates as well. 

Makes sense. Promoting a guy on staff would help keep some recruits and transfers.

Yep. A big thing at Michigan has always been the idea of the “Michigan Man.” While that’s not as pervasive these days, they do really like the culture that was established this year and feel like the program is in a good place. Hiring someone like Gattis would be very similar to OSU/Ryan Day, OU/Lincoln Riley, and ND/Marcus Freeman. Gattis got a lot of run for HC jobs last year (Virginia Tech to name one) and won the Broyles as the top assistant in CFB. Although Harbaugh’s other coordinator, now ravens DC Mike MacDonald, deserved that award.

    • Former league executive and current NFL.com analyst Marc Ross recently named his top second-year breakout candidates for the upcoming campaign. Ross includes Legette, who may be helped out by his team's latest first-round selection. He writes: Legette had a slow start to his NFL career, catching 49 passes for 497 yards and four touchdowns last season. Some of the struggles can be tied to his own growing pains -- he had eight drops on 81 targets, according to Pro Football Focus -- but he had also had to navigate the quarterback shuffle between Bryce Young and Andy Dalton early in Dave Canales' first season leading the Panthers. Canales recently said he believes Carolina has a DK Metcalf-like talent in Legette, who had foot surgery this offseason but was cleared to resume work in early April, and that having a full offseason alongside Young, who took a significant step forward in 2024, could lead to a breakout result in 2025. I anticipate it will also help that Carolina invested another first-round pick in a wide receiver, Arizona's Tetairoa McMillan, to complement Legette in the pass game. McMillan's presence, however, could take some pressure off Legette—who may be able to roam around in a more natural playmaking role. With the 6-foot-4 All-American likely to take on the bulk of the volume from Young, Legette should have some cleaner shots to break out downfield and in the box score.     https://pantherswire.usatoday.com/story/sports/nfl/panthers/2025/05/06/panthers-wr-xaiver-legette-top-breakout-candidates-2025/83475176007/?taid=681a4610ede05d000149b376&utm_campaign=trueanthem&utm_medium=trueanthem&utm_source=twitter
    • my understanding is a big time throw, could be a 5-10 yard slant to Adam Thielen given AT isn't going to separate.   
    • It's a subjective stat that PFF made up. https://www.pff.com/news/pro-pff-qb-grading-most-effective-tool-there-is
