He won more than he lost against OSU. Not easy to do.

His teams have been lousy in the big games, however.

Sad day for OSU fans today. No more Lloyd to kick around.

Lloyd was a good coach, never a great one. But he did what UM asked him to do: win with integrity. I do think there is something to be said for that.

He was 6-7 against Ohio State, I believe. 5-1 pre Tressel, 1-6 vs. Tressel.

I told you it was hard to do.

Here are his records against all opponents. I don't think this list includes W's and L's for this current season. He really beat up on Indiana and Penn State.

Here's why Lloyd kept his job..........

7-1 Wisconsin.......... you go boy
6-2 Purdue
8-2 Penn State.......... good job
6-7 OSU
7-3 Northwestern
9-1 Minnesota .........ouch ........
9-3 MSU .............we love ya.......
6-2 Iowa
7-1 Illinois ............nice work....
10-0 Indiana .............................yikes !!!!!!!!!

overall record in the Big Ten of 75-22 or 77% wins

These are what a coach at UM is measured against.
He's a winner in my book..........thank-you Lloyd.
Live long and prosper.........

Actually the record against MSU should be 10-2 if adjusted for the clock "malfunction" game.

Another Michigan man?

I'm totally spooked by his clock management and general end-game strategy against Arkansas. I swear I've seen 10 year olds on X-Box with more natural instincts for what to do with timeouts.

His recruiting skills and motivational ability seem to be through the roof though.

Those fast players are what Michigan needs though and not those slowfooted slugs so if he can recruit speed at the skilled positions, then it may over come some of those minor coaching issues that he has..... is there anybody else on the short or long list that they are looking at?

I heard that they have opened up discussions with Wayne Fonte's agent.
