Stumbled across something from 2019 that I find funny.

I often go after message board themes that I think are bunk. Maybe sometimes a little bit too much so. :)

One angry theme from years past that never passed the smell test went something like this. "Michigan is never going to achieve elite results if Jim Harbaugh is still involved in the offense. He needs to HAND OVER THE KEYS to Josh Gattis and let HIM run the offense or we won't get anywhere".

Hmmm....so the dude that knocked off Pete Carroll's dynasty from his seat at Stanford and took the 49ers from garbage to three straight NFC championship games including drastically switching their offense, needs to move out of the way??? What?!?!?! But that become a well accepted theme.

That theme drives the tone of this news report and with the benefit of hindsight (which includes Josh Gattis winning the Broyles Award when Jim went AWAY from his offense) exposes that angry internet narrative of the day for its full silliness. Anyways I got a chuckle and thought others might as well.

Thank goodness Jim held on to the keys - across the board.
