Coach Mike Macdonald came to Ann Arbor as a noname defensive coordinator. When he was hired, I made a joke on twitter that Michigan was hiring the lead singer of the Doobie Brothers. Sam Webb laughed and liked the post. Now Coach Mac is a Super Bowl Champion head coach.
Guess who is going to be a head coach soon? Jay Harbaugh. He has the last name and now has a National Championship and a Super Bowl ring. Kent State or San Jose State should take a shot with Jay when they have an opening.
All of us right now, might be thinking what if Coach Mac was in Ann Arbor as the Wolverine's head coach? I don't think Coach Mac liked College Coaching as much as he does NFL. I don't think he was that fond of recruiting and the 24/7 nature of the job.
I have been watching the Seahawks all year in the 2nd Red Zone window. They play Michigan Football if I've ever seen it. QB is there to NOT make mistakes, power run game, and a dominating defense.
Now onto the really important game on Sunday:
There have only been a few moments in Michigan Basketball recent memory that made me truly happy. Trey Burke's shot against Kansas in the Final 4 and Jordan Poole's NCAA buzzer beater come to mind. The wins at East Lansing and a blow out win in Columbus on Sunday, put a huge smile on my face. I'm 100% serious when I say, I don't want any other coach at any level of basketball over Dusty. That guy can coach and can put a roster together. Any night, Michigan has 9 guys that can beat you.
Michigan dominated the entire game and took the Buckeyes will in the 2nd half, when we all expected a run from Ohio State. On a side note, those game officials really weren't paying attention and seemingly didn't know the rules of college basketball.
- Coach Mac put former Michigan and current Seahawks center Olu Oluwatimi (he got hurt and lost his starting job this year) in for one play during the Super Bowl at RB.
- AJ Barner with a Super Bowl TD! I knew he was really good at Michigan. He might not be in the NFL if not for Jay Harbaugh.
- Michigan Women's Basketball lost a close one to UCLA on Sunday afternoon.
- Also congratulations on the Super Bowl win to Chris Partridge Seahawks LB Coach, Mike Morris DT, and Zach Charbonnet a former Wolverine that transferred to UCLA.
