I'm a huge Michigan Wolverine fan, no I didn't go there and I've never even been in the state of Michigan but I've been a fan since I was 9 when the fab five was cool and I have never dropped Michigan since as my favorite college hoop and football squad. Chris Webber to this day has been my favorite hoopster and I even have a Brian Griese #12 Wolverine Jersey, unfortunately whoever got it for me as a present didn't get me the sweet ass #2 Woodson jersey.
However, since 1997 Michigan has vastly underachieved with the talent he has recruited. A trip to the Alamo bowl last year? While other universities have had high hopes and often time similar disappointments and equally no National titles, Lloyd seemingly every season has a major gaff in the opening weeks, and if you haven't noticed in College football one loss there's a good chance you should just pack up the season. Lloyd almost single handedly let Tyrone Willingham keep his job as he was unable to beat Notre Dame even during there down years, not to mention a terrible loss on the road to Oregon on the first road journey one season.
In addition any sports fan knows that one of the greatest and most tradition filled rivalry is the Wolverines Buckeyes showdown in the last week of the Big 10 season. Well Lloyd has been getting his ass whooped by the big cheater Tressel and this is unacceptable.
Personally, with his limited expectations reached in the past decade I would give him this year to turn it around and that's it.
But here's the kicker any time the man has spoken in public, he appears to be a bitter angry and heartless man. Once question by a sideline reporter why he wasted the clock at the end of the half instead of trying to score, a very very valid question, he snarled at the women with a holier than though how dare you question me attitude. And now Lloyd Carr is basically solely responsible for the firing of a referee with one eye who has been employed by the Big 10 for the past 13 years, the last 5 with one eye, and he even worked an Orange Bowl. Lloyd Carr is a heartless son of a bitch and I hope he gets fired so that Michigan can bring in a classy coach who can possibly approach the lore that the 110,000 fans per home game deserve.
