It's Official: Michigan Fires Rich Rodriguez

It's official this time. I think. Via ESPN:
Embattled Michigan football coach Rich Rodriguez has been fired, a source tells ESPN's Joe Schad.

Michigan released a statement Wednesday saying athletic director Dave Brandon will discuss the state of the program at 12:30 p.m. ET.

Rodriguez was 15-22 after three seasons running college football's winningest program.
RJBO can reopen the bottle of champagne.

Suggestion to Michigan. Instead of wasting time on Harbaugh only to be disappointed like Maryland fans, hire Brady Hoke. He's won at Ball State and San Diego State for Christ sakes. He actually wants to coach at Michigan! He's a 'Michigan Man!' He coaches defense and the last time I checked that was the worst part of your program. He's never said anything bad about the program like Harbaugh has in the past about academics. Hire the right man and that man is Hoke.

    Agreed. I want Harbaugh to take the Niners job, if only for the sorta interesting trip he'd make to Ford Field (CBA permitting).
