Rich Rodriguez (Search is Over)
Dec 20, 2007 | 7:15PM | report this

This one is for all you Michigan fans out there.  May all your Christmas wishes come true!

Driving home from work today while stuck in traffic, the late John Lennon's Christmas song, Happy Christmas (War is Over) came on the radio.  As I pondered my fate in that four lane parking lot, it hit me!  So this is Christmas.....So Rich Rodriguez........and another song parody was begun.

 

Rich Rodriguez (Search is Over)

So Rich Rodriguez

Let's see what you've done

A Maize and Blue lover

Offensive spread and the run

And so Rich Rodriguez

I hope you have fun

A Michigan man now

Just please everyone

 

A happy coach Rodriguez

Joins the mighty Wolverine

Let’s hope he’s a great one

With drive to be mean

 

And so Rich Rodriguez

Left weak to join strong

Coach Rich left the poor ones

This world can’t be wrong

And so Rich Rodriguez

For Maize and for Blue

Beat Buckeyes and Spartans

You’ll pound them won’t you?

 

A happy coach Rodriguez

Joins the mighty Wolverine

Let’s hope he’s a great one

With drive to be mean

 

And so Rich Rodriguez

Just what have you done?

Another search over

And a new one just begun

And so Rich Rodriguez

Do pass more than run

The Big 10 is better

Than Mountaineer dung

 

A happy coach Rodriguez

Joins the mighty Wolverine

Let’s hope he’s a great one

With drive to be mean

Search is over...over

If you want it

Search is over

Now…

Beware Wolverines.............

Rich Rod is a Grinch in Who's clothing. Don't be surprised if a year or so from now you will be wishing that you never heard the name.

Good Luck, and God Help You.

wolverine fans take note...
Good luck recruiting defensive lineman with your brand new, frusting 3-3-5 stack which cannot stop interior runs. Do any Big Ten like to run inside?

Yes, rjm2179, the Big 10 is better than Mountaineer Dung, but not much. Have fun with your leftovers. Tis the season for those, you know. As to passing, you need a coach that knows routes. And since he fired most all of Michigan's assistants, you better for a passing coach for that. Michigan's motto for the next year or so, "FOUR PLAYS AND PUNT AWAY". All scripted and ready for you to enjoy. You best hope his writers don't go out on strike.

I played High School football with him, he's a choker, he choked in the WV AAA State Championship,but someone saved him, Pitt game choke, being up front man choke, will he choke at Michigan, BIG CHOKE, don't blame WVU, they did everything they could do beside making hime king of the world, so Rich good luck, keep your airway open, hope to see you on the field would that be nice. Terry Bowden welcome, this is the only choice. Once agian I bleed old gold and blue,i thought you did too, Rich.

rich is not a loyal wv coach only to the mighty dollar.How do you michigan fans like him firing all the coaches?Hope he fails in what ever he tries to gain in the big 10. Michigan is already a good football team but Ohio state is better,Coach rich is no coach Bo schem.When Mich.starts losing & has a loooooosing season see them either firing him or he'll go some place else for more money.WV.dont need a coach thats a quiter,or runs for the money,WV needs a good coach one thats not a quiter,and is loyal to the school as was Don N.He stayed right there.WAS NOT A QUITER

Okay, WVU fans win the crybaby bowl hands down. When you lose a coach why not look at yourselves and ask why? IF everything was so great and the job was so deamy why would he leave?

Certainly not for the money. He got very little compared to waht Bama offered him last year. You have to ask yourselves why. I understand that he actually talked to the Wolverines half way through the season. and never expected numbers 1 and 2 to lose thrusting WVU into a top spot. As for firing the coaches, they still get paid through out their contracts. WVU should look at one of them to se if they may fit your program

Now a smart thing to do would be to hire from within. Bowden isnt the answer. Tressel would be fantastic but even the Wolverines know that Fantasy Island comes on at 8 pm

As for the Pitt game, isnt Pitt in the same conference? WVUFAN28 would have you believe the coach lost the game but the players really did. Yes everyone, WVUFAN28 is a q.u.e.e.r buttboy

We are blue and gold and forever we stand .We hold are heads high whenever we can.Rich rodrigez is in the past so maybe we will prevail at last.So Michigan who cares about you because we will always be true and not like Rich Rodrigez or even you.We are proud to be ####,gun token, deer eaten son of ####es who will always stand hand in hand.So come to West Virginia and run your mouth because you'll have a 22 gauge shotgun right here down south.I think you shut up real fast or you'll get a West Virginia blast.

Something many of you just wouldn't understand, Loyalty. Finish the job you started. Deliver on your promises. None of these things RR has done. Was he a good coach? Check this, defense stuffs the run because they stack the line and cover the flanks. But behold down the field you have recievers running wild and wide open. What does coach RR call for the next play? Run to the outside again. Pat White, don't pass the ball, follow the blocking scheme, even though we know it will break down, but don't go vertical down the field, ALTHOUGH the play is for the taking.

NO...NO...NO

You see coach RR just didn't realize the plays were there that would force the defense to stay honest and open up the run.

No, he has no loyalty and can't deliver on his promises because he CAN'T COACH nor can he read DEFENSES and adapt his play calling.

Nor is he commited on improving himself.

Nor can he handle adversity and runs when adveristy presents itself. You see RR is simply trying to compensate for his lack of ability and coaching skill by becoming the BIG MICHIGAN man. The fact is, he is still a lost little boy chasing a dream without realizing it takes a man to BE the DREAM.

Sorry, but little Rod is not THE MAN.

Has he done anything great for the Mountaineer team.

No. He left that team hanging at thier lowest point and then came the Fiesta Bowl when the truth was exposed.

FINALLY we got to see the true skill level of those wonderful players. Pat White was no longer a lop-sided rusher. Suddenly he has balanced stats in both the rushing and passing

I am so sick of WVU fans being labeled cry babies because of this.All i can say is WAIT UNTIL THE DAMN SEASON IS OVER BEFORE YOU SWITCH JOBS!!!!!!you know tigs, he would have alot more money by taking the Alabama job last year but his mom convinced him to stay AND(drumroll please) the Alabama job ####-ummm no on wanted it and they put more pressure on coaches than UofM. Did anyone see how june Jones left hawaii? After teh bowl game AND he told the UofH up front he was talking to another school.Rod DID NOT have permission to talk with UofM, why else do you think he met witht hem in god's butt crack toledo? BECAUSE HE WAS SNEAKING AROUND AND CHEATING ON US-this i swhy we are mad. but i digress.We ended up getting a fine coach who the players love.Personally I think Rod will be kicking tressels #### in 3 years once he has his recruits as long as they don't run him out. BTW-who is his starting QB next season since Mallet is leaving for tennesse?Go mountaineers and no I don't hate Mich, my wife is from Detroit and grew up a HUGE UofM fan so this is even harder on me

I am an avowed "West Coast" college football fan who happens to live between Big 12 and Big 10 country and spends many a late Saturday night watching football from the "conference of champions". While I am not an SEC-hater, I do believe SEC fans have a tendency to think too highly of their teams, without knowing much about football beyond the confines of dixieland. free counter
