2025 Transfer Thread/ Portal Offers-- (31) Transfers to UM

Coach Hauck has done a good job coaching in the sequel, but he does need to tweak both the offense and defense.

Offense: Junk the quarterback by " feel," and select a starting QB by the third nonconference game if not before !!! If h I s performance is underwhelming, fire him and replace him with QB # 2. When we have a four or five score lead during the 4th Qtr., play QB # 2.

Defense: Junk the 3-3-5 and it's exotic Blue Angels' flight formations: stunts, stems, twists and use them to a lesser extent in a base 4-3-4 and if an opponent gets pass happy with 3 or 4 receivers, drop a LB and play nickel, 4-2-5 ( No college team was won a NC playing the 3-3-5, and no NFL team playing the 3-3-5 has won a Super Bowl !!! In fact, I am not aware of any NFL that currently uses a 3-3-5. And that is not a coincidence !!! )

Some tweaks need to be made--a tune up for the GRIZ Cadillac is needed, but just six years when Coach Hauck came back for the sequel, the Cadillac was smoking badly under the hood, the engine frequently stalled and quit, and our Caddy needed a complete engine and transmission rebuild, which took 2018 and '19 !!!
 
Harm doesn't understand there are escalator clauses / performance bonuses built in UM coaches' contracts that actually make them competitive if they can attain most of the benchmarks. These benchmarks are largely based on attendance and graduation rates, and additional bonuses based on wins, conference championship, beating the cats, playoff wins, natty, etc. . However, the base salary is guaranteed for the contract duration. To buy out the cumulative guarantee, they'd have to come up with somewhere close to $1mm just to buy out bobby. (Roughly)
I absolutely understand that, and frankly, I wouldn’t sign a contract with such obvious clauses, unless there were mitigating points. I also, don’t think BH is the coach that needs to go. I think a very frank discussion should be had between BH and his boss, or his boss’s boss, if that’s what it takes, about adjusting certain behaviors to better promote the attractiveness of the University to a wider range of recruits & improve his media performance… some folks like it, but it’s also like shooting yourself in the foot at times.

Fair points
