ScottyIce Posted September 20, 2018 Share Posted September 20, 2018 Sorry to make a re-tread here, but I'm going to post it a little differently from here on out, so the thread doesn't hypothetically die out after we don't complete the hypothetical, hypothetically speaking of course. So, here it is for Game 3: Does a Nebraska victory over Michigan this Saturday, signal the end for Jim Harbaugh? It seems like he has a lot on his plate over there and people aren't happy that they haven't even been to a conference championship yet? If we make them stub their toe, they likely miss it again. What say you Husker Nation? 1 Quote Link to comment
StPaulHusker Posted September 20, 2018 Share Posted September 20, 2018 I love this game! I would say no because there really isn't anywhere else for them to look to get a great hire. Harbaugh is as good as they will find. Especially for that fan base. 2 Quote Link to comment

4skers89 Posted September 20, 2018 Share Posted September 20, 2018 A lot of this Harbaugh on the hot seat is media driven IMHO. They made us sick of hearing about everything he did or said when hired so now when he struggles it plays well with opposing fan bases. I don’t think the UM admin is taking advise from media. He’s a good coach and they know it. Quote Link to comment
Huskers93-97 Posted September 20, 2018 Share Posted September 20, 2018 I agree with most here. He is a damn good coach. People need to stop with calling for coaches heads after a few seasons or a few games. They have been pretty solid the last few years- I am sure he will get them going. After Rich Rod and all that they should realize good stable coaches dont grow on trees. We had our run with Callahan, Pelini- good but was trending down the last few years, Riley. I think we got a good one now. Osborne would not have lasted 25 years in todays market. Hindsight I dont think anyone would give up those 25 years. Quote Link to comment

The Maudfather Posted September 20, 2018 Share Posted September 20, 2018 Maybe you should go post this topic on a Michigan board. 2 Quote Link to comment
Making Chimichangas Posted September 20, 2018 Share Posted September 20, 2018 Is Harbaugh on the hot seat if Michigan loses? I doubt it, but then again Michigan is the "fan base" that sent death threats to their own punter a few years ago. Real classy folks, those Meatchicken fans. Quote Link to comment

What say you Husker Nation? My father in law is a huge Michigan guy, probably fits the profile of a booster. I base my response based on his reaction to a large degree. I think a loss to Nebraska isn't the end. A loss to Nebraska, plus a loss to tOSU could be. I think by and large, Michigan is kind of where we were with Bo. You've got to win the big games. If you drop a weird one here and there, it's not the worst thing in the world. Losses to ND, MSU, tOSU will seal Jimbos fate. You win those games but lose 1 or 2 weird ones, you're fine. You keep losing all of those and I imagine he'll be gone. Quote Link to comment
Hilltop Posted September 20, 2018 Share Posted September 20, 2018 Signaling the end probably isn't the right term to use. I do believe it would make him move to #8 or 9 on the above list. I also think IF Nebraska beats Michigan Saturday, the loss won't look nearly as bad by seasons end. If we turn the corner this weekend, we may only lose a few more games and end up 7-5ish.

That actually was probably the best analogy I've ever read. This seems like they are exactly where we were with Bo. Winning a bunch of games, but just couldn't get over the hump, ever.

Red Five Posted September 20, 2018 Share Posted September 20, 2018 After the Nebraska game Harbaugh will be closer to his tenure at Michigan ending than he was before the game. 3 Quote Link to comment
