They probably need a pretty good attorney also. Football is the last of their worries id bet.Some of you guys are probably following this closer than me but I see Dillingham took an extension at ASU and with DeBoer going on in the playoffs and probably staying at Bama, Michigan is running out of options.
It couldn't happen to a more deserving program.
if they aren't going after Kyle Whittingham they are missing out. pay him some big number to come in and stabilize things for 2/3 seasons and then let him retire.Some of you guys are probably following this closer than me but I see Dillingham took an extension at ASU and with DeBoer going on in the playoffs and probably staying at Bama, Michigan is running out of options.

That would be my plan but Michigan is a mess Whittingham might not want even for big bucks before he retires. Unfortunately, even with all kinds of crap going on, Michigan still expects their athletic teams to deliver.if they aren't going after Kyle Whittingham they are missing out. pay him some big number to come in and stabilize things for 2/3 seasons and then let him retire.
If you do a 2nd tier BB tourney you effectively dismantle the NIT.In some ways I agree, but in others that just feels like another FCS. They unofficially already have that because a bowl game is basically their ceiling. I guess they could make an "FBS 2" and have their own playoff but I don't know....that just seems kinda pathetic.
It sucks but I think I'm fine with the "throw them a bone" playoff spot they all fight for is good enough and probably better than their own playoff. I think it's similar to how you could do the same with D1 basketball split it into another division and let the mid majors all have their own tourney but I think for them making the NCAAT is the prize and would be better for them than winning a less glamorous tourney.
