The coaching carousels are as bad as the transfer portal. It's a train wreck. This one firing will be a domino effect of more coaches on the move

Huh…I'm guessing it's not because of bad coaching?

He was dipping his pen in company ink I'd say.

Alabama coach Kalen DeBoer: He has stated that he's happy at Alabama, following some half-baked buzz about Penn State as a potential destination. DeBoer was never going to Happy Valley, but Ann Arbor? He might have to think about it, especially if Alabama makes an early exit in the CFP. DeBoer, 51, likely would have been a top candidate for Michigan if Harbaugh had left a bit earlier. He landed his first FBS coaching job minutes from Michigan Stadium at Eastern Michigan, where he served as offensive coordinator from 2014 to 2016. DeBoer also has Big Ten experience as Indiana's OC in 2019. He's 56-16 as an FBS coach at Fresno State, Washington and Alabama, with two CFP appearances and a national runner-up finish (to Michigan) in 2023. If Michigan can land DeBoer, it should shut down its search.
Los Angeles Chargers defensive coordinator Jesse Minter: There are two challenges with Minter's candidacy, but he still might be worth considering, especially under less-than-ideal circumstances. Minter received a one-year show-cause for recruiting violations while on Harbaugh's staff at Michigan. He also worked closely with Connor Stalions, the ex-Michigan staff at the center of the signal-sealing scandal. Minter, 42, also projects as a strong candidate for NFL head-coaching openings after his strong performance alongside Harbaugh with the Chargers. He spent 2022 and 2023 as Michigan's defensive coordinator, and in 2022 was a finalist for the Broyles Award, which goes to the nation's top assistant. The son of college coach Rick Minter, Jesse has never been a head coach but would bring extensive assistant experience from both college and the NFL.

Washington coach Jedd Fisch: He's been just about everywhere in his coaching career, including Michigan, where he coached quarterbacks and wide receivers under Harbaugh in 2015 and 2016. Fisch, 49, has a distinct mix of college and NFL experience, and has had success as a head coach with both Arizona and Washington. He elevated Arizona to 10 wins and an AP No. 11 finish in 2023, and has led Washington to consecutive bowl appearances. Fisch is a gifted playcaller and has an incredibly large network of coaches, allowing him to compile a strong staff at Michigan in the wake of Moore's ouster.
Duke coach Manny Diaz: He oversees the reigning ACC champions and has a solid overall record (38-24) at two Power 4 programs. Diaz, 51, is extremely sharp and likely would connect well with Michigan's fans and key constituents. He also has some Big Ten experience after serving as Penn State's defensive coordinator in 2022 and 2023, when the Lions ranked No. 6 nationally against the run during the span. Diaz has coached extensively in the South -- Miami, Texas, Mississippi State, Louisiana Tech -- and likely could enhance Michigan's recruiting in those areas as well as the Midwest.
Cleveland Browns offensive coordinator Tommy Rees: He's only 33 so there would be some risk involved, but Rees has positioned himself for head-coaching opportunities in the near future. He was a top candidate at North Carolina last year and has been on the radar at UCLA and elsewhere. Things obviously haven't gone great with the Browns the past two seasons, but the issues in Cleveland go deeper than Rees. A former Notre Dame quarterback under Brian Kelly, Rees began his coaching career in the Big Ten as a graduate assistant at Northwestern, and held coordinator roles with both Notre Dame and Alabama before entering the NFL. He might be a bit of a stretch for Michigan, but an interview would make sense, especially given the timing of this search. -- Rittenberg

I've seen several things that mentions Michigan is looking at Deboer.
I'd hate to him go.
ESPN reporting he was detained after his dismissal

MI and Penn State may take years to recover. Does Penn State even have a coach yet?
Matt Campbell
Crazy stuff, if some of the tweets are true about an affair with his assistant, getting her pregnant, and then paying for an abortion.
And apparently, MI knew about it for a while and didn't come public with it until after Nat'l signing day.
It makes you wonder if they already have a replacement?
"You find out, after signing day, which I think was timed purposefully, that [Sherrone Moore] is fired with cause… This is what myself and several other people had heard a month ago… Let me put it this way, agents have expected the Michigan job to coming open for several weeks now."

When u get to the level of a team like a michigan u learn to navigate those waters and hold off making those bad news announcements till after u have your players locked down till after national signing day. Is it sorta dishonest towards the players ? Yep. But its the way its done.

The warning signs were all there for michigan when he deleted 28 text messages in the cheating scandal. He was knee.deep in the middle of all.of that and they knew it and ignored it and still hired him. So they get what they got coming .
Edit to add : michigan has had 11 staffers either arrested (7) or banned from the sport for rules violations (4) since jim harbaugh arrived. And harbaugh had to run and hide in the nfl to avoid getting the hammer slammed on him by the NCAA. Nice duck and run there ole cheater.
