    Could also have been the only way he got Ansley and he really wanted Ansley.

    Gotta think that Greg Schiano, Butch Jones, Phil Fulmer, and Jon Gruden are all potential hires you’re looking at very closely right now.

    He’s largely believed (maybe even confirmed) to have ranked Michigan like 4 or 5 in 97. Pretty sure it was the difference. It could have debunked too but the story survives

    Just because Priutt laid an egg doesn't mean hiring Schiano was better.

    I think I'm record for going for Satterfield. I would loved Dino Babers.

    Voted UM #4 in ‘97 after Woodson won the Heisman over Manning + ran up the score on us a couple years later in the Citrus Bowl...up big and kept their starters in and were still going deep with a minute & change on the clock

    It's fine if you think it's a bad hire. Don't accuse him of aiding and abetting child rape though

    Oh, okay. That was year if we beat #1 Nebraska in the bowl game, and Michigan lost we would've been crown National Champs.

    Nebraska beat the beejusus out of us, and Michigan won.

    I'll carry the Heistman of Charles Woodson in my heart forever.

    Jason Witten being faster than Michigan's entire secondary is fun viewing.

    After watching Rutgers over the years it’s painfully obvious Schiano was hell of a head coach

    He did rank us 4th, but if he ranked us 2nd we still would have lost. If he ranked us first (wasn't going to happen) we would have tied.

    First of all, I did no such thing. I was fine with that sinking his hire though.

    I do think it was very stupid for our AD Curry to try and hire a guy (outside of the list boosters put together) associated with the PSU scandal, while UT was undergoing a NCAA probe of how the University handles sexual assault.

    AJ Johnson was on trail for rape for 3 years, because of the legal admissibility of text messages. AJ was ultimately found not guilty.

    And everyone Curry talked to said Schiano wouldn't fit. It was wildly unfair, what Schiano was accused of by UT fans. But I'm still happy he isn't our coach.

    I didn't say you personally did any of those things. Many in the fanbase did though.

    Everything else that you said is fair.
