There's a lot of weird shit going on in Ann Arbor these days, and I think Carr's responsible for a lot of it. His backers were the loudest voices against Rodriguez, and my little conspiracy theory is that they outed the practice violations to the NCAA. I think they've done everything they possibly can to undermine the guy (and I am not saying this because I'm in any way a fan of Rodriguez...). I don't think the AD is going to hire another coach without their stamp of approval, and I think it's just going to continue to spiral down the toilet bowl that began while Carr was still coaching. And I still say he's the reason the team's in the shape it is right now, and not Rodriguez. The problem really boils down to issues with recruiting from 2006-2007, specifically on the defensive side of the ball.
(There are other issues of course, namely Greg Robinson....)
It's going to be like Gunther taking over for Marty. Or maybe Herm taking over after Vermeil, after Gunther took over for Marty.

I think Gary Patterson would be a hell of a hire for them or anyone who can get him to leave TCU.
