Rodriguez Is Michigan\'s New Coach

What is it with Michigan hiring all of the WVA coaches away? First John Beilein and now Rich Rodriguez...

Interesting move for RR... not only did UM not quite hire a Michigan man... they hired a Mountain man... they succeeded in luring away Rich Rodriguez, a man coaching at his alma mater after losing out on one of their own (Les Miles).

I guess they don't have to change much in their wardrobe... WVA and UM colors are pretty darn close...

How immediate was the ripple effect of Rodriguez's hire? The coach barely had time to inform the Mountaineers of his decision early Sunday afternoon before the nation's most coveted recruit, Jeanette (Pa.) native Terrelle Pryor -- a spread-option QB who'd reportedly narrowed his choices to Ohio State (the suspected favorite), West Virginia, Florida and Oregon -- told Scout.com, "Add Michigan to my list."
