Harbaugh is in for a LONG year
-
I just talked to a Michigan transplant here at work. She thinks they go 7-5 this year, Harbaugh gets his recruits (no timetable on that), then they're "unstoppable."
The line in Vegas has been 7.5 wins, so she's definitely within reason there. "unstoppable" is way to string of a word. Give it 3 or 4 years until they're in the national title conversation. But I'd never say unstoppable...

Because he's moved up each time... and now he is where he wants to be.

If you believe him he wanted to be in San Francisco but was forced out
Early man walked away as modern man took control. Their minds weren't all the same and to conquer was their goal. So He built his great empires and he slaughtered his own kind, and he died a confused man and killed himself in his own mind... -

It's not always a guarantee that coaches who have won at smaller programs can win at bigger ones. Bigger programs involve a lot of ego management. It's not easy.
Which would be appropriate here if this were the first jump he was making...

Going from SDSU to Stanford still leaves you woefully short of knowing how to manage the egos of a big time program. Hey, he'll probably do fine, I just don't like when people assume a guy will dominate the CFB big leagues just because he dominated the small ones.

It's a rivalry Woody. Don't expect anything other than this.

and how has that been going for San Francisco?
If he wanted to be in the NFL, he'd still be in the NFL.

He had no egos to manage on an NFL team?
Who has said he will dominate?
Was Stanford in a "small league"? They play in the same FBS as everyone else, correct? Or are you calling the PAC 12 small?
You said there's no guarantee he'll win because he's only won at a "small program". That completely ignores each program he's turned around, it makes Stanford sound like a MAC team, and it ignores his entire NFL stint...

No, of course. I am fine with the shit talking and what not. I just would like common sense, based in reality, or factual responses from the other side. Responding with inaccurate statements and straw man gets really old, really fast. It is amazing how much some people can lose any ability to reason and use common sense when it involves OSU and Michigan. I see it here a lot though. It is probably a byproduct of all of the success OSU has had recently. A delusional, arrogant, fanbase. I'd probably be saying the same thing about Bama fans.

Don't know if you noticed, but YOUR reality or what you view as common sense matches approximately 0 % of the board population opinion concerning this subject matter and not much higher on other subjects..

Are you talking the political board? 2 things there. One, don't confuse multiple threads about the same thing made by the same people as the population believing that. Two, I'm fine being seen as not agreeing with them on a handful of subjects. I have no problem with not being seen as being on the wrong side of history
When it comes to this board, no shit, most of you are OSU fans. I know a lot of sensible OSU fans in real life. Maybe it is the anonymity of the online forum that brings it out, but there are a lot of childlike, toll-like, moronic posts on the subject at hand. Again, if am seen as not fitting that mold, I am ok with it.
I have no doubt that if an unbiased observer read through some of the old threads on here, I'd be seen as the reasonable one. Multiple times I've been called out for not being completely 100% OSU 100% of the time. Where the other side gives nothing more than posts attacking Michigan or just spewing incorrect nonsense. If only I did that too.... huh?

You can cut guys in the NFL. Everyone's got a professionals mentality. Completely different ball game.
Pretty much every Michigan fan. If not, what exactly do you think he will do?

It doesn't ignore each program he's turned around. It says it's a small program. Exactly what I said.

You should say you will be happy with 6-6....because you should be happy with 6-6 vs. what it could be.
We lost the first game, by 7, on the road at night against a good team, with a -3 turnover margin. And it was only 7 points.
What do you think "what it could be" is? Most people are putting the bottom as 6-6, with 8-4 a reasonable expectation.

8-4 is optimal expectation, 6-6 is reasonable expectation. 4-8 is not beyond the realm of possibility.

You think he is a new Nick Saban......success in college, switches to the pros....things there become iffy...then he decides tp go back to college to his "dream job". Sure, possible. But then his dream job unlike Saban may in fact be back in the NFL......who knows, we shall see.

First of all I'd never want Harbaugh to be like Saban.
Second, there are a lot of differences in these situations
1) JH actually had success in the pros, a lot of it
2) JH could gave continued coaching in the NFL at a number of locations if he wanted to
3) JH is back at the team he played for. In the town he grew up in. His kids are going to the same elementary school he did. By all accounts he is where he wants to be right now.

Everyone has a professional mentality in the NFL? Really? You think egos just disappear once you reach the NFL? And you think "just cut them" is the answer?
Every Michigan fan says Harbaugh will "dominate"? Really? I disagree, but I guess that would depend on your definition of dominate.
No, Stanford is not in the top level of big time programs. Stanford isn't a small program though. And, again, it ignores the NFL.
Though I'm sure most NFL coaches would be relieved to hear there aren't egos to deal with in the NFL and everyone is a professional.

Possible, but who knows.
Harbaugh.....went to HS in Palo Alto (maybe that is where he really would like to be...but can't go back there). And he was born in Toledo.
So...when did he live in AA as a baern?

He lived in AA between 1973 and 1979, when his dad coached here. During that time he idolized Bo. Not to mention he played here under Bo. He has plenty of time in here. I'm going to go out on a limb and say I've followed this more than you. It seems like this is where he wants to be.
Again, if he wanted to be in the NFL and be in Cali, he'd be there.
