It’s been a weird past 24 hours, or so, in the state of Michigan. The Wolverines hired a 66-year-old head coach and somehow Michigan State and Pat Fitzgerald continue to take strays from the national media over recent coaching hires.
Michigan nearly botched a coaching search and landed on a coach who was leaving Utah at the end of the season because he felt like he wore out his welcome while Michigan State hired a coach who was eager to get back into the game and he’s more motivated than ever to succeed.
The Wolverines did make a solid hire.
