UGA has a major advantage in recruiting over most schools, and Smart is leveraging that no doubt.  I'm still looking at Tennessee, Texas, USC as examples of how this can go south without a plan.

I also came to believe Richt was just too soft in several ways, and that isn't good.  He's being honored at halftime Saturday.
Problem is Michigan's at that point if they want to get back into the DISCUSSION they'll have to shuffle the deck.Or just get use to annually losing 2 out 3 to tOSU/MSU/PSU.Right now they're fan base isn't 50-50 IMO,it's decidedly negative.The Wolverines have to win out to rinse out the the sting and stench.Otherwise it's here we go again and "when will we make a serious run at the hardware"

getting used to annually losing 2 out 3 to tOSU/MSU/PSU  sucks, but don't let emotions cause you to go the path of the coaching carousel like Tennessee or Texas or Nebraska

you could very possibly then be getting used to losing seasons

I'd have a helluva strong signal that my target was no doubt taking the job, before firing a 9 win coach

I think Nebraska thought they had that commitment from Houston Nutt's agent when firing Solich and somehow the deal blew up.
Perhaps but michigan for better or worse is in a more productive recruitng place,IMO.UNL is a harder sell that I would have no problem sending a kid - mine own or someone elses to.Frost was a great hire at the time - who knew.He was previously in a talent rich environmet before that produced results'

 I guess it's nothing ventured,nothing gained

That's not emotions - that's a trend

It will be interesting to look back on this, whatever this is, and see how it worked out.

Some of the situation might depend on how JH's contract is structured and who UM has it's sights set on

it's usually a couple boosters of substance that are working on emotions saying it's a trend

They already went down that road with Rich Rod and Hoke, they know the risk. 

The Texas one is interesting. Unlike the others, they always land the hot flavor of the month coach, and it turns out the same as the Mike Rileys and Butch Joneses.

No that's a trend.Michigan hasn't really played for the Big Ten Title maybe twice in 15 yrs 2005 and 2016.But the ladder was Hoke's players.They are use to being the "Leaders and the Best".Believe they still have the all time wins.It's a thing and they want to keep reaching

yes, they know the risk

probably why Harbaugh is safe for another season unless their top candidate is ready willing and available

Here they had their guy right down the road in S.A. - probably
