	Who was 'forcing' Rich Rodriguez to sign this contract...WVU Administrators, or Don Vito Corleone and Luca Brasi? Better get extra guards for your stable, coach! How scared are the Michigan faithful with this idiot at the helm? Go Blue?

	You'll keep him for 2, possibly 3 seasons. After that you will understand what WVU (not uwv) fans already know. After that Michigan and WVU fans will be friends.

	As a Wisconsin alum and fan I'm happy to see that Micigan got Rich Roddriguez as their new head coach. I don't think that he brings with him the integrity that Lloyd Carr left with.

	Now that's funny coming from a fan of UW, who's coach had a player try to break Steve Breaston leg, and he didn't nothing.... Karma came back and bit him in the a$$ last year... had a season/career ending injury!

	trueblue69 what are you saying? Racist coach? Are you serious? Coach Stewart's biggest supporter was and is our african american soon to be all american QB, Pat White. People can suggest all they want to about how WVU (not uwv) handled this but anyone with any level of intelligence can see that RR is the bad guy in this situation. Before you post ridiculous comments like that please make sure that you have the whole story. Even though I am a WVU grad and lifelong fan I always had respect for Michigan beacuse of the Bo and Lloyd. Your program just fell off of the radar screen with regard to integrity.... You can keep RR since no one else wants him... and you are welcome....

	Smurph, well put. I couldn't agree more that Michigan and WVU fans will be friends when this is all said and done and RR is no longer at the Michigan helm. We will see him from a similar perspective.

	Between the Lions and Wolverines i doubt michigan natives will be too upset when Rodriguez fills the team full of future prison inmates like he did at WV. They might reinforce negative stereotypes and be dumber than a box of rocks but they can sure play football.

	Because U of M can have the pick of the litter, they shouldn't have criminals on the team. They should have academic all-americans as well as athletic all-americans. If Michigan has any palyer resembling Chris Henry, it is on RR completely.

	His real day in court will come when he finds himself in the horseshoe surrounded by 100,000 Buckeyes. Good luck with that.

	What a Putz Rodriguez is! Poor little Richie........Looking for sympathy and saying he felt forced to sign, What, a 6 or 7 year, $14 Million contract? Don't you feel fortunate that you never had to be forced to sign such a rediculous contract with your current employer? I mean, what kind of Pusscateer is this guy? As a Buckeyes fan, this just gets better all the time. This guy is a complete joke and embarrassment. I give Ram-Rod 3 years tops. What's your over or under on the number of years RR stays at Michigan? If I were putting the line down, it would be 3.
