Glenn Schumann will NOT be Michigan's Next Head coach

[hoops156]

Fisch is not going to Michigan (that ship has passed already) and they are not hiring a coordinator either- if they had to they will go with Biff and wait. There is some support for him within the michigan brass/boosters.

they could just go foggi for a year until the pool widens again next year after they sort out their ****

Now getting leaked but this has been what I've been hearing the last few days if they don't give it to Poggi. They really want Schumann and i think they get it done

According to ESPN's Pete Thamel, Schumann isn't on the list, bud.

Hard to imagine that Michigan would hire ANYONE from within (Poggi) after the mess that has transpired.

I would agree under normal circumstances but they would have to pay a huge suck tax to get any name to go there right now with how much of a mess it is.

I just don’t see Brohm leaving unless UL has said we’re maxed out on NIL.

Plus they would have to take a Michigan 3 for a personal assistant.

I think the support is based on the premise that they go after someone next year after keeping Biff this year. All of the potential suitors have found their homes in a heavy turnover year. The thought then is why mortgage the next 4 years on a someone or a gamble. Better to have the pick of the litter next year and build for the future.

Michigan would be crazy hiring anyone within or someone’s assistant coach/coordinator. They need to hire an adult capable of altering culture.

@creamofthecrop13 Adam Schefter is reporting that Whittingham is the focus of Michigan for the job. Thoughts, Dan Sileo iii?

 

[Canes Legacy]

He’ll definitely add a level of maturity there

A young 66.

If this was 5 years ago I’d say elite hire. This all seems too convoluted for a premier program. If Sexton is tanking the search that’s wild because this is a **** good job still.

 

[htownkidd]

Meh.
Not a “bad” hire, but there’s a sure ceiling here IMO.

 

[PatrickCane]

Whittingham is a little long in the tooth for that job IMO. He'll be 70 before his recruits fully populate that roster. That would be a strange hire and strange for him to want to pursue that job.

 

[Colombie]

Whittingham would be a solid hire. He is better than anyone in that League in my opinion. Give him Michigan's resources and recruiting base and I think he will win a few Conference Championships.

I think that’s what they’re looking for right now after everything that’s happened. A proven great coach to come in, establish a new culture, and be a bridge for the next guy. 3-4 years would do that

Smells to me like this would be a one year stabilize the program type hire and nothing else.
