Who would you take if the money was identical?
Hard to say if you’re looking at just one season where one team played 6 games and the other played 10. I’m not even trying to make a case for Bobo, more that value relative to their contract is not really my concern as a fan.

Yeah, I agree, I guess my point is that if I was a fan of a program that had the budget to pay $2m for a coordinator, I would want/expect someone better than Mike Bobo. Then again, that's probably his market value, as he is a pretty veteran OC with lot of experience in SEC land recruiting and developing some QBs.

Agree, I’d be disappointed with Bobo, but I would prefer they spend the $2M to hire another really good option than to save $1M and hire someone like Chev.
 
Mac is a better politician than coach. He’s a good old boy that will politely laugh at a racist/sexist joke and somebody who can code switch and relate well to young people. That kind of coach is a very rare breed - too rare for college football. The boosters are immovable given how they basically install the AD because of their donations and willingness to pay for endless buyouts. The president is impotent there given the indepedence of the AD.
You think Mac is a racist?
 
Khaki pants Harbaugh is so overrated
I know he hasn’t done as well at Michigan as many predicted and his program is clearly a step behind tOSU which has to infuriate folks in Ann Arbor, but I’m not sure how you can call him overrated.

Started coaching at University of San Diego and after starting 2-4, went 27-2 the rest of his tenure winning 2 league titles in 3 seasons.

Then he takes over a dogs**t Stanford team coming off a 1-11 campaign and turns them into Orange Bowl winners by year 4 a year after an epic beat down of a top 10 USC team at the Coliseum in Pete Carroll’s final season.

Takes the 49ers job following a 6-10 season and goes 49-22-1 with 3 division titles, 3 NFC title game appearances, and 1 Super Bowl appearance in 4 years.

He’s now 49-22 at Michigan with three 10 win seasons. So while I’m sure Michigan fans are disappointed and he’s coming off his worst season, he’s still won a lot more than he’s lost.

Sure, but it might well be that the longer he stays at a place, the worse it gets.

Wasn’t the case at USD or Stanford and SF was still much better his last year then before he got there. I guess when you win a lot, any off year looks bad.
 
He will never be good enough for Michigan fans if he can't beat tOSU, which is the only reason he has been on the hot seat. He's clearly a really, really, really good football coach and has proven it at across different levels of college, difference conferences, and in the NFL.

He has not done anything to deserve that at Michigan and I question if this is still true. People change and he seems quite ineffective to me.
 
Sorry I wasn't clear. I meant that after year 4 with an organization, he may not be able to keep winning at his earlier rate.
I think the bigger problem is that after 4 years, people just don’t like the guy so college might suit him better with the turnover. The 49ers management hated him and he saved them from the Mike Nolan, Mike Singletary, Jim Tomsula eras.

edit: Darth beat me to it.

I don’t think that’s fair at all. His major fault is not beating tOSU and for a Michigan HC that’s a big deal for sure but if his overall record was exactly the same but was 3-2 against tOSU instead of 0-5 he’d be a god there.

Ohio State is 68-7 since Harbaugh took over at UM and have finished the season ranked: 4, 6, 5, 3, 3, 3 (with NCG to go). That’s insane. It’s not going to excuse going 0-5 against a rival, but everybody loses to Ohio State. Saying he’s been ineffective is not accurate.

They are not paying Harbaugh all that money to simply be competitive with tOSU and be completely and totally irrelevant otherwise....
