Let me be honest I was not all for Michigan hiring Rich Rod 3 years ago when Lloyd Carr decided to leave. I thought it was mighty bold of the Wolverines not to look into Ron English for head coach. He made the defense what it was! But once I got over that I was all ready for Les Miles to win his championship with LSU and then become a Wolverine (I mean he wanted the job back when Lloyd Carr was given the position).
AND then drama ensued and Les Miles wasn't even given the opportunity to accept the position. So the powers that be decided on Rich Rod. Now I commended him for the work he did at West Virgina but I wasn't sure how he would fair at Michigan. I mean I love his style of offense and how fast paced he runs it. When he was given the job I humbly accepted that he was my (and yes I said my) coach! I defended him his first season explaining to people that he was a new coach bringing in a whole new style of offense with a young team. The second season I thought there was hope when they routed their first 4 teams...but then lost all the rest. So now, with the 3rd season underway I was thrilled when Denard "Shoelace" Robinson debuted! And the team went on to a 5-0 start.
But once the Big Ten schedule began trouble started. I haven't stopped defending Rich Rod because he is the coach. And out of respect I will do everything in my power to sway people to my side. BUT COME ON MAN!! Where on earth is the defense?!?! I mean how can u deploy one of the quickest offenses in Football History and have a defense that can't even defend me? I am pleading with you Rich Rod do something! They need some help. If anything ask English to come back..he will probably say no but at least put the word out there. Shoot call up my dad. I mean he is only the leading tackler at the school. If anything you would have some skilled Linebackers!
I'm not saying that I want Rich Rod fired but I do think that if he can't get his act together something needs to be done. I think that the offense can thrive under him (but only if he doesn't run Robinson into the ground) but not at the expense of the defense! This is the Big Ten and a defense is more than important! I just can't keep holding my breath on Saturdays anymore wondering how my team is doing!
SO what I'm saying is: COACH RODRIGUEZ PLEASE GET A DEFENSE!
Thank you management!
