I mean can you hear me in the back? Yeah don't hire a 66 year old Mormon with "complicated opinions about Bruce Springsteen and Bono that he SWEARS have nothing to do with his right wing politics" who has only coached in joke conferences to lead your top 5 resources in the country football program that HEAVILY RECRUITS NONWHITE PLAYERS OUT OF DETROIT AND CHICAGO WHERE MORMONS ARE WEIRD WINGERS.
Like, brey, the way we used to beat Ohio State is by going into their backyard and telling recruits "Michigan is about you, Ohio State is just using you" and pointing to our diverse staff verses their staff of "white guys who knew Urban Meyer, mostly."
How you gonna do that now? The man can't recruit the Midwest and he was NOT PREPARED for this moment - except this moment is a fucking season-opening home game against a sacrificial cupcake and you STILL needed the refs to cheat for us to get a W
Fire his ass. Right now. Don't wait for January, fire his ass right now. This is NOT getting better - write that down.
Like, how did I know Witt was gonna be a bust MONTHS before you did? Well part of it is that you treat all football conferences as the same when they're not. Yeah Witt has won some Pac 12 and Mountain West Conference games - so what? This is the Big 10, you have to beat Ohio, and Oregon, and Indiana, plus whichever one of PSU, USC, Iowa or Washington isn't chewing their own dick off this year. Those programs are ALL better than anything Whittingham has ever faced outside of bowl games.
But really, more to the point?
You are Michigan. You depend on recruits from the midwest, particularly the urban areas, many of those recruits are nonwhite, absolutely none of them are Mormons.
And you hired a 66 year old white guy everyone and their mom knows is straight up a fucking Nazi. Again - the man "hates Bruce Springsteen and Bono specifically but refuses to say why." We know why buddy, you're a Trump cultist.
