I romanced Babers as soon as the news broke.
Wanted him, Herman, Leach, Butch or Durkin last time.
This was a lazy hire, but also makes some sense from the perspective of having been inured to the idea we were stuck w Mork for the next 2 years, at least -
I am at that point that meh - Manny will get two years.
He makes some great hires at OC and DC, beats K Briles and at lease keeps us close or pulls it out vs. Mullen out the gate next year...Who knows?
I am underwhelmed at the hire, but not at all surprised nor apoplectic about it.
Essentially, WORST CASE ANALYSIS - we are in a slightly better position than we were 3 days ago and the dream of changes at OC are here.
So, yes, UM admin did typical UM admin things, but at least we get a shot at a new look offense to be compteitive in the mighty coastal for the next 2 years - Better than 3 days ago.
These last 16 years have beat me up. I was in grad school at UM from 00-03.
....still chasing the dragon.
