are you seriously comparing Charlie Weis - a guy who had never been a head coach in his career and whose entire resume and claim to fame is that he knows Bill Belichik, Tom Brady, and Bill Parcels - to Harbaugh?
Seems like an asinine comparison to make, considering Harbaugh was an All-American, Heisman finalist as a QB in college and 1st round NFL draft pick that played 14 years in the NFL and has prior head coaching experience. Very good prior head coaching experience I might add, taking over USD and having back to back 11-1 seasons and winning the Pioneer League, and then taking over a 1-11 Stanford team and rebuilding them into a 12-1 BCS winning power house, and then jumping to the NFL and going something like 49-18-1 including playoff games over 4 seasons.
Do people seriously think a guy who could win at Stanford and the NFL can't win at Michigan. You can dislike the guy all you want, but to act like he's not a great coach and to compare him to Charlie Weis is laughable. At best.

Easy there, Tommy. Harbaugh is a good coach, I'll give him that, but my comment was mostly in regards to the OL which hasn't been that great for Michigan recently. If you don't have the OL it's hard for any kind of QB to make plays. That said, I do expect Michigan's OL to get better this year or next year. There's a lot of good talent that was brought in for the 2012/2013 classes, so those guys will be maturing and seeing the field soon. The comparison was made because Hoke did a crummy job developing the talent he did have in the trenches (Or failed to pull in the talent he needed some years) much like Weis did. Harbaugh has to get the OL in shape otherwise the offense isn't going to come together.

Some of those are a bit weird, to say the least.

Cardale Jones taken to hospital with head pain, reportedly a migraine - CBSSports.com
By Tom Fornelli
9/2/15
Ohio State quarterback Cardale Jones had to be rushed to the hospital on Wednesday night after experiencing severe head pain, CBS Sports' Jon Solomon confirmed with Jones' high school coach, Ted Ginn Sr.
Ginn received a call about the incident at approximately 10 p.m. ET.
Jones' family members initially took to social media expressing concern for him.
"Everyone please pray for Cardale," wrote Devonte Jones on his Facebook page. "I just got a call saying they had to rush him to the hospital for a bad headache and he couldn't move."
Sheena Jones, Cardale's sister, also posted on the social media service, "Please keep my brother in prayers tonight, he was rushed to the ER."
Tony Zarella of Cleveland 19 News first confirmed with Jones' family that Cardale was experiencing "severe head pain," noting the player was "still undergoing tests" at the hospital.
Later Wednesday, Dave Briggs of The Toledo Blade spoke with Jones' mother, who confirmed that her son's hospital visit is over a headache. "He's good," she told Briggs.
Jones and the Buckeyes open their season against Virginia Tech on Monday night. He was expected to split time with quarterback J.T. Barrett, though his status may need to be updated by coach Urban Meyer on Thursday.
An Ohio State official had no comment on Jones' health when contacted by CBS Sports late Wednesday evening.

Hope he's okay, but I don't understand the families first reaction is to start posting on social media. I would head to the hospital first. You can post something later.
Your age is showing. Your priorities are not contemporary. If they drive the 2+ hr drive to Columbus, they're going to be scooped. Think of their followers!
Although if they made the drive they could post selfies.
I found it interesting that with all the OSU staff, the source was his HS coach Ginn.

ugh. never wanted them in the first place.
I know you guys hate us, but really would've loved to get ND + Miami-FL or UNC or UVA in the B1G over Maryland and Rutgers.
ND, MICH, Ohio State, PSU, and NEB in one conference would've been pretty crazy. That's 5 of the top 10 programs all-time in one conference. Would've been a real challenge to the SEC imo in terms of eye balls and prestige. Adding Maryland + Buttgers did nothing but bring $ by getting BTN on basic in those footprints. Once the unbundling of cable/sat subscriptions is complete we will lose all that tv $$$ but will be stuck with Rutgers and Maryland. Good job Jim Delany.

Maryland: Jeff Ermann is reporting that Maryland plans to fire Randy Edsall following this weekend’s game vs. Ohio State. Ermann’s report says that Maryland plans to do so, “barring an unexpected last-minute reversal” as the Terps would be entering their bye week.

They could look awfully stupid if there is a dramatic shift in cable packaging and they are left without the ability to cash in on NYC and DC/Baltimore but still have to carry Rutgers as dead weight.

I saw nothing in that article that showed Riley had anything to do with the incident. The word 'fostering' in that article is grounds for libel if it cannot be proven he did indeed actively participate in generating or enabling that type of culture.

I'm not sure what is libelous about the article. The article doesn't accuse Riley of anything; it simply reports on a lawsuit that has been filed.
