Michigan fans aren’t used to rebuilding seasons and definitely aren’t liking the feeling. After a second straight losing season, Michigan fans and alums are trying to show Coach Rod the way out with not-so-subtle hints. Some are even coming up with economic stimulus plans for Michigan that involve firing Rich Rod for (get this) breach of contract.

It’s been no secret that since the Rod-era began, Michigan has been on the NCAA’s naughty list. A traditionally clean program, Michigan has gotten themselves into as much trouble as the school bully thanks to a very picky hall monitor, a.k.a. the NCAA in this instance.

If you don’t think Rich Rod is going to get it done at the school, you need to fire him now, before the next season commences.

Why?

Because you have a legal hook that can significantly lessen the blow of the firing — you can argue that Rich Rodriguez breached the terms of his contract by violating NCAA rules. Bang. Meet Michigan’s own stimulus plan for the athletic department, firing Rich Rod for cause.

Lord knows the state is falling apart financially faster than a teetering tower of Jenga blocks, so this suggesting isn’t half-bad!
