Just to be clear
I want Whitt gone. I don’t care what happens these last 3 games. I think he’s absolutely one and done.
That said you will never catch my ass rooting for Ohio State just to add another loss to his historically bad resume in Ann Arbor.
Miss me with that BS.
Michigan fans only, do you want to see Kyle Whittingham get a second year in Ann Arbor?

Kevin Durant praises rookie Yaxel Lendeborg:
“I mean, just love his game. A skilled big that can play 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 on the offensive side of the ball. Can shoot it. Can handle it. He’s strong, long and athletic. I think he’s got a 7-foot wingspan, 7’1”, you know? So that right there just shows you he’s a different level of athlete. A winner. Won in college. Been through a lot of adversity too, coming from his background and then playing in college for some, what, 5 years, 6 years? So yeah, he been through a lot, man. So he came here fully full-grown, in my opinion, and he’s ready for anything that’s thrown at him. So, it was fun to play against him.”
Current ‘Win Shares’ among NBA rookies:
1) Yaxel Lendeborg- 1.3 〽️
2) Aday Mara- 0.7 〽️
3) Bennett Stirtz- 0.7
4) Cameron Boozer- 0.6
5) Morez Johnson Jr- 0.5 〽️
3 of the top 5 were playing for Michigan last year. We may never see a college front court like that again.
Perhaps they should offer the Giants a first round pick for JJ McCarthy.
Developing: The Vikings have begun making calls around the league about trading for a quarterback ahead of today’s 4 pm ET deadline, per @rapsheet and me.
What they really need is a first-round talent, who’s young, shows promise, has a reputation for winning, and can make explosive plays. Too bad they don’t have a guy like that on the roster.
The belief around the NFL is the #Vikings will attempt to trade for a QB today as another option to have for this season before the 4 pm ET deadline.
“They won’t sit still,” a source said. “They can’t.”
There is no coming back from this for Kyle Whittingham. It’s not because he’s 5-4. We could be patient with 5-4 if it was clear he was building something. We could trust the process if the staff was fighting for progress and just coming up short.
However, the reason Michigan fans are done with Kyle Whittingham and Jason Beck is because it feels like something we love is under attack from the inside. There is a blatant lack of understanding of our traditions, our rivalries, and our identity. And worse, there is a lack of effort to try to understand.
Then you couple that with a product on the field that is worse than almost every team in country and head coach who refuses to show any passion during the games. Don’t patronize us by saying “I don’t know what’s wrong right now, but I promise I’m going to fix it.” No you’re not. It’s clear that you aren’t willing to do what it takes.
We lost the Little Brown Jug and Paul Bunyan to bad teams, and we lost to Indiana at home for the first time since 1967. You know what’s next? Our sell out streak at the Big House. You know how I know people will stop going to games? Because for the first time in my life I’m considering not even watching the game next week. Not just because we are bad, but because we are bad and there is no hope under the current leadership.
The loss last night was worse than the App State loss. It was worse than the Rich Rod loss to Toledo. Michigan currently has a roster that could be in CFP contention and an NIL program that is second to none. And yet, while playing the worst team in the Big Ten, our in-state rivals, we never really even had a chance.
And then last night Whittingham had the nerve to say he’s not making a coaching change during the season, and when asked how he knows it will ever get better he referenced the 2027 recruiting class. You think players are going to come back next year after throwing them under the bus this year for something that is clearly a coaching disaster?
@WardeManuel I know you thought hiring Kyle Whittingham was going to be your last big decision and then you could ride off into the sunset, however, Michigan needs you. We need you to figure out how to remove this staff before you leave. I understand why you hired him. It was the best decision given the circumstances. But we must make a move for the players, the fans, the alumni, and pride of Michigan Football.
This statement alone is fireable.
1) Don’t throw your current player under the bus for something that is clearly not their fault.
2) If you think players are going to stick around for this staff you are utterly delusional.
In the last 24 hours:
Morez Johnson Jr- 13 PTS, 17 REB
Yaxel Lendeborg- 23 PTS, 8 REB
Aday Mara- 18 PTS, 8 REB
The 3 Michigan rookies are having an immediate impact in the NBA. It’s crazy to think that all 3 of these guys played in the same college front-court.
Yaxel and Franz are going at each other right now in a great game, if anyone needs to take their mind off the most embarrassing Michigan football performance in modern history.
Who is going to get held accountable for this? Anyone? Are these guys just guaranteed a job no matter what the performance looks like? When is it bad enough to hold someone accountable, because I’m not sure it gets much worse than this on offense.
