Dems not worried about jobs

Apparently the dems aren't worried about their own jobs either. Many of them will lose their own in 2010

UofM Defense

Does UofM's defensive chaos reflect more on Coach Rod or defensive coordinator Greg Robinson? You really do wonder about what reasoning RR used in picking Robinson...was it b/c he was one of his boys from the big east? It can't be Robinson's record with the Orange...Robinson led the Syracuse program to 4 years of absolute losingness. So his record there couldn't have been a resume builder. His 2 decent years with the Broncos? that was kind of a long time ago. You really wonder if Robinson was the best choice given other possibilities. You'd think that this late in the season you wouldn't see so much mayhem and rudimentary breakdowns in the backfield. I'm not trying to hate on anyone, but this hiring for defensive coordinator is curious. Or is all the defensive badness more on RR?

Greg Robinson

Robinson came over from a bad Syracuse program where he rolled up a 10â€"37 record overall, and a 3â€"25 record in the Big East. It will take years for Syracuse to recover...an interesting hire for defensive coordinator, indeed.

End the experiment, now

Very well said mikesaline. I'd much rather see Rodriquez and his brand of football in the big ten than the old Bo/Carr style of football...that old school big 10 style simply doesnt win anymore. Well, it may win in the big 10, but they'd just get smashed by the SEC, Pac 10, and co. So I say keep the experiement going. In a few years I bet UofM will be a power...speed wins, not big bellies...Wisconsin mediocrity should make that clear
