Brady Hoke, the former football coach at Ball State and San Diego State, has been named the University of Michigan's new head football coach. Rumors had been circulating that the Mad Hatter, Les Miles, would leave LSU to take over at Michigan. However, Dave Brandon, Michigan's AD, announced today that the position would in fact be filled by Hoke.
This isn't the flashy hire that I'm sure the Michigan boosters wanted, but after the Rich Rodriguez debacle I do think this is a good hire (Hoke is the antithesis of Rodriguez). Hoke completely turned around Ball State's football program, taking them from 4-8 in 2003 to 12-1 in 2007. He then led San Diego State to a five win turnaround from 2009 to 2010. Hoke worked on Lloyd Carr's staff at Michigan and knows what the winning culture of the maize and blue should be like in Ann Harbor. It is going to take time, Michigan fans, but rest assured that the Hoke hire is at least a move in the right direction.
