The parallels between Jim Harbaugh's last move to the NFL and his move from Michigan to Los Angeles are taking shape.
Sherrone Moore now faces the same task as David Shaw, building his program while he battles his mentor for staff.

... just like JJ's 2020 message. Yeah, are Herbert and Minter big losses? Sure. Is Moore as head coach going to help recruiting and the adaptation of the program for the new era? By all accounts, yes. Just breathe. The sky ain't falling, we just won the natty, and we got Moore to lead us into the "new" era of college football. Just breathe.

Happy Monday, everybody! Obviously we all see/saw the headline. How about maybe we set our focus on a little more positivity this week? No better day than Monday morning to start!

Like Josh said, this is what happens after you win a national championship… Your staff gets poached, one way or the other.

I personally try to be more positive as I’m naturally a pessimistic person, but I figured it was worth saying let’s not allow the first headline on a Monday morning just start the week off on a negative foot!

Michigan begins a new era with Sherrone Moore as its new football coach. We discuss Moores challenges in the days and weeks ahead.

You folks can not expect Harbaugh to staff this program for Moore. Moore needs to be his own man and hire his guys. Jim Harbaugh is about Jim Harbaugh winning in LA. He's a one track mind. Some say awkard. He will take his office chair if it will help him win. Big test for Moore to put his staff together. Once the dead period happens in recruiting things will move. None of this should be a suprise to anyone. Let's not panic and think the program goes back to RR days.

Grant just followed Texas official account and sark. The downfall of Michigan football is upon our eyes. Thanks warde!!

was to ensure continuity with the program that JH built. How's that working out for us so far.

And I'm already done for the week.

With the expectation that Jesse Minter will leave Michigan to join Jim Harbaugh's staff in Los Angeles, Sherrone Moore will be on the search for a new defensive coordinator sooner rather than later if the speculation comes to fruition as most think it will.

One early name that is standing out from those I have spoken with is Baltimore Ravens' inside linebackers coach Zachary Orr. His name has been brought up in discussion with people I speak with multiple times, Trevor has heard his name mentioned as well. Now, could this be an echo chamber of people repeating some sort of speculation? It's possible. But when you hear it from separate people not related to each other, you take some stock into it.

Orr is young, only 31, but has been in the NFL coaching ranks since 2017 where he got his start as a defensive analyst with the Ravens after ending his playing career in the NFL in 2016.

In 2021, Orr was hired by the Jacksonville Jaguars to coach the outside linebackers and was hired back by the Ravens this season.

Is he going to be the guy? I cannot say but he's from the Ravens coaching tree and it's clear that Moore has some level of interest in him.

It's an intriguing option, to say the least.

Told the players during this mornings lift session

According to @HaggarKhakis and @Minocm , Southern New Hampshire offered him a busload of money and tenure as a professor. He will also run their messageboard.

What do the Lions Need.

Not necessarily via the draft, but I think they could use another OL, DE, CB, S and WR.
I know they drafted Hooker in the 3rd last year, but if JJ slipped to late in the first round, do you take him?
Goff would still be #1, but where wil he be in two-three years. Look at how Love performed for GB after waiting a few years..

Do we root for the Chiefs because if they win Sherrone Moore could hire Zachary Orr sooner?
Or
Do we still root for the Ravens because John Harbaugh is Jim's brother? Or do we root for Baltimore because people are sick and tired of Kansas City in the Super Bowl?😂

I want to get a Michigan tattoo but am struggling with the design. Looking for some help.

Best rushing team in the league and ran it 16 times. The offense game plan has your head scratching trying to figure out why they are making Lamar be a pocket passer??? Just so confusing. Down 17-7 esrly third you can still pound the rock. Just boneheaded game plan and boneheaded penalties.

Pro Football Rumors reports that Harbaugh made a significant and specific “ask” during his negotiations with the LA Chargers. He wants the UM analytics staffers to have jobs/ follow him to Los Angeles.

That division of the team, aside from sign stealing, was rarely featured. And it is SO MUCH MORE than cataloging another teams signs.

Interesting. Who are we talking about? Names?

Alright, I don't want to have to do this a bunch, but it needs to be said. Hopefully, only this once, and hopefully, you understand where I am coming from.

I appreciated @buttaball post the other day about respect for Josh and I. We've given everyone a long leash because we understand how Harbaugh leaving can get people fired up. The point of this board is for like minded Michigan fans to be able to come in, talk, share ideas, and sometimes frustrations.

But the constant negativity is getting out of hand. We are bringing intel, and we are going to have more and more to continue to bring. We can't have every thread getting hijacked with, frankly, bullshit because people are up in their emotions. Blatantly ignoring things Josh is saying to instead get mad at the imaginative scenario they have created in their head. Or the cross-posting of information that has gotten way out of hand.

You all built this community, and we are so proud of it. I am not asking you to be sunshine blowers; I am not asking you not to post opinions, but we can not allow the constant complaining to drown out the actual information we are trying to share with you all.

If I have to do warnings and bans to ensure the vast majority in this community get the experience they expected when they paid to sign up here, I will. And if you've received bans or warnings for this before, consider this a final warning.

If this is confusing, feel free to ask questions. I hope everyone understands where I am coming from. We have never drawn a line in the sand, and we are willing to let people play in the gray, especially during tense times like this, but some of this has trended way past the edges of gray.

This place means a lot to me. The trust Josh and all of you have put into me means a lot to me. This place is a community bigger than any one person.

are no commits. What is going on?!!??!!!





Kidding! I'll give him a few more days.
