It's being reported by the same source that says Harbaugh is joining the Vikings.

And truthfully, it's not that hard to believe. Plenty of NFL failures turn into college successes.

It could all be bull, we'll see.

Same source also hints they likely are to hire from within   So you hire from within.  

then you get to brag about how the in-house guy was a better hire than Rhule and these other external guys you could of pursued but didn’t. 

and again, the Penn St aspect on top of Rhule imploding in the NFL.  Just don’t see how that is realistic for Michigan.

Like I said, they don't necessarily see Rhule like we do.

If they think his success at Temple and Baylor translates to them, he could be their guy.

But again, it's all hypothetical. For now, Harbaugh is still their head coach.

Well my imaginary money is on Matt Rhule never getting a call. 

then Matt Rhule leaks out how Rhule never wanted the job.

I’m on a bunch of Ohio State boards that are pretty plugged in to Michigan folks as well. Expectation is that they’ll hire internal (Josh Gattis most likely, slim chance of Mike Hart). But I wouldn’t rule out them checking out external candidates as well. 

Makes sense. Promoting a guy on staff would help keep some recruits and transfers.

Yep. A big thing at Michigan has always been the idea of the “Michigan Man.” While that’s not as pervasive these days, they do really like the culture that was established this year and feel like the program is in a good place. Hiring someone like Gattis would be very similar to OSU/Ryan Day, OU/Lincoln Riley, and ND/Marcus Freeman. Gattis got a lot of run for HC jobs last year (Virginia Tech to name one) and won the Broyles as the top assistant in CFB. Although Harbaugh’s other coordinator, now ravens DC Mike MacDonald, deserved that award.

    • Teams do some super stupid stuff with mid-fairly good QBs. I think they are just absolutely terrified they will be stuck with a QB that is not the quality of the QB they have now, even if its someone like Daniel Jones. Lots of trash QBs go in the first round. I encourage you to take a look at the sad, sad list of first round QBs in the last 15 years.  
    • No, it will be a raw 6'7" 17-year-old European who just played basketball for the first time in March and who the idiot GM "had first on our board." He'll play the whole G-League season, get in 42 games for the Hornets and average 1.1 ppg on 35% shooting. Been there, seen that.
    • We missed on Burns at his peak value. That’s the problem with trading for picks 2-3 years away (which people were convinced the Rams would suck by now and these would be higher picks btw). Each year away the pick is the further in value it drops. Fitt was clearly hired based on turning us around quickly. It’s one of the many reasons tanking isn’t really a thing as our player JJ is telling you in this original article. It would take the whole organization from the owners down admitting they aren’t winning soon with Burns and picks 2-3 years away having more value because that’s when we are still rebuilding. It would only make sense if Fitt had a longer leash and would more than likely be the ones making these picks anyway which you wouldn’t want. The question is would you rather have those Rams picks with the strong possibility of Fitt still being here or would you rather Fitt try to “win now” like he did and expedite his firing? Altering the timeline would affect more than just the Rams picks.
