Any other Chippewa fans out there? If so, I'd like to hear your opinion on the football team. I still think that hiring Butch Jones as head coach was a huge mistake. I don't know why mid major schools rarely try to recruit some of the talented head coaches from divison 1-AA like Appalation State, Youngstown State, or North Dakota State. You could get somebody with head coaching experience, at the college level, that knows how to win. And what 1-AA coach wouldn't want to make the jump to 1-A? It seems like such an obvious place to recruit coaches. But for some reason CMU decided to hire a wide reciever coach, fom another mid major school, with no head coaching experience. I don't see the logic there. Oh well, hopefully the will manage to win the Motor City Bowl again this year.
