May I nominate Greg Robinson and John L. Smith?

I hope they bring Gary Moeller back. Though I'm not sure if his gig as Dad on the Wonder Years will prevent such a move.

Fox News? I'll hold out for a real source.

LOL! I think the Daily Mirror also reported it, if that makes you feel any more secure.

How far can the next coach take this current roster which was really only built for RichRod's offense? And also gotta wonder how many defectors there will be. Both current players and recruits.

The wrath of RichRod will still be felt for a few years.

Was just telling a co-worker the same thing Flip

If Denard Robinson isn't careful with spooning all that food into his mouth, he's going to end up lookin' like Whoopi Goldberg

I still think Brandon should've told RichRod that Robinson is out, and that he will hand pick the DC who will also be in charge of special teams. Otherwise, they need to find someone who will also run the read-option offense, but just be a better all-around head coach than RichRod (ahem, Dan Mullen?!).
