Agree to disagree. Rich Rod increased his win total every year, Hoke decreased his win total every year.
I know you like to pretend that insulting a rich Mexican upsets people, but the reality is there are like five active coaches with a better resume than Rich Rod. Saban, Stoops, Shaw, Miles, and...? I can't even think of a fifth one unless we are giving one hit wonders like Jimbo or the Sparty guy.

Rich Rod used to be good.
He's completely mailed it in though.
He doesn't even try to recruit anymore.
Id still probably take him over that clown mora.

I remember reading that John Bacon book Three and Out about Dick Rod at Meeshigan. Came away with the impression D.Rod got a raw deal. Y'all are probably right, though...he's mailing this fucker in.
I'm sure he was balls to the wall the first year or two. But there has to be an overwhelming moment of clarity where you look in the mirror and come to the realization that you're in Tucson, Arizona. Nobody gives a fuck about football there. And nobody wants to live there. It's a piece of shit. You're in a 12-school conference and your school's desirability is around 9th/12. I'm already making a fuckton. I can go out and continue to kill myself, maybe winning an extra game or two in the process. But either way you're not going to ultimately compete for anything and you're making fucking bank regardless.

You can actually see the moments he's shaming himself for starting to care
Must have happened to Rich Rod in Ann Arbor too
What really happened was he left a piece of shit league for real football and fell on his face
You can actually see the moments he's shaming himself for starting to care
and this was during the opening kickoff
Agree. Also, IMO, his big time fuck ups started at Michigan by trying to implement small ball in cold country. Early success at Zona was due to lucky timing, coming into in the PAC during it's extended nadir, where that fad could work for awhile. Still, to the OP's question, I think they might escape the South's cellar. It's way too early to know for sure, but outside of USC, it seems a division or near pure dreck.

Nah, anyone without strong ties to Ann Arbor will never be allowed to succeed. That's a weird fucking fan base. One of my best friend's family are big UM donors. I've been to a bunch of games there over the years and it's like a fucking cult.
The Rich Rod hire made sense as they needed to evolve as a program. The boosters went nuts and now they are stuck back in 1970. They will win 10 games, get used as a tune up game by the Buckeyes every year, and sleep soundly as they know a "Michigan Man" is behind the wheel not accomplishing much.
