Michigan should go after Saban in a huge way. We are not even close to having a third season like he just had. Time to stop this silly experiment. This once proud program is barely a shell of its former self. The string of bowls games should have never ever been broken and if we continue down this road the all time winning percentage will slip away like all are other good streaks. Losing more games in 2 years than EVER in totally unacceptable.
