Instant Reaction: Michigan adds Alabama OC- Gattis

- Today Jim Harbaugh added Alabama offensive coordinator Josh Gattis to the Wolverine staff. I think this is a huge get, it signals a transition (hopefully) from the power run game to a more modern spread attack utilizing the wide receivers. it was reported today, too, that Gattis will call the plays next season. The news also ends a string of negative stories from the last two losses and 2 coaches going to OSU...instead something to be happy about! Go blue!

Congrats JH and to Michigan fans. This IS a signal that Jimmy is finally admitting what we've known all along.
UM has some outstanding WRs that will excel in the new system. Crossing fingers our rivalry is finally back!
Hope so to...Michigan has not been a good rival...hope this can alter the game plan enough (along with no more strictly man d)
@ClearlyCaribbeanReb - Back in 1800's...
Definitely a step in the right direction for UM.
Congrats on the new baby girl! 💝
I saw a stat on recruiters having Gattis ranked #24 in the country...not sure how it was formed but that is a nice indication of his recruiting skills. Hope he gets the offense opened up. Thanks! Finally got a decent night sleep!! Makes the day look so much better!!!!!
Let's go blue....
Hope so, hope so!
Keep going Scarlett/grey...
I think this is great, only if Harbaugh hands over the keys to the offense and see what this offense looks like with some spread
That is the big question, what will Harbaugh let him do???
This could be huge for us. I'm excited about it
I know, I am so happy Michigan got a outside college coordinator, not necessarily a re-run NFL guy, either. Someone who knows college football and recruiting! Maybe he can get some of that SEC talent up here. Michigan has been doing a good job in Georgia the last few years. Also saw Josh has ties to the North East, really helped PSU get some good talent.
He has never been a full time OC so time will tell if he's a good hire or not. Nick Saban make everyone look good under him.
Saban made himself look stupid in Jan. 7, 2019...
He was hired because he was rated a top 20 (nationwide) recruiter. Can he be an effective OC? We shall see
I consider this a great pick up it's a fresh breath of air going to be interesting on how Gattis utilizes the skill players and schemes along with his play calling!! Finally moving forward with the times and not staying in past Great hire by coach Jim H, 💪Go Blue
A fresh breath is a great way to put it. Alabama still ran the ball but they had a great passing attack...hope Gattis brings it here. Glad Harbaugh is changing things up.
I agree with you, plus alabama and nick saban think like harbaugh so they will be comfortable with each other but updated. I just hope that Don Brown will change up his defenses vs. very good teams (IE, use man to man most of the year, but change it up against OSU , and againsg any playoff caliber teams or bowl game teams()
I don’t trust that Harbaugh will let him call plays
If he does a good job at Michigan then Ohio State will pick him up in a couple years.
Could be true...OSU might be the right move for him. A bit surprised so many assistants have moved...from Michigan, Osu (new coach makes sense though but Meyer kept Fickel). Coaches just move around. Thanks for the comment.
LOL! ... No... he's SECupcake-tainted... like Patterson...
@@thephoolshow747 - Subcoaches felt stifled under Brown's Defense...
It's a great move. As an Ohio State fan, it isn't good news. I can see how Harbaugh finally got desperate enough or was told by someone to get something done with his offense. This will also give Michigan a guy who can recruit some of the athletes from Georgia and the rest of the southeast. Now, whether or not these kids can be lured away will depend on whether Harbaugh really lets this guy run the offense.
If he does, things will change and Michigan will doing what everyone who has opened up their offense is doing, score points. If not, it's an exercise in futility. Remember Michigan fans , temper your excitement, your academic standards will still be prohibitive to recruiting southern talent like the football factories in the South.
Very true about tempering excitement! Got to see how it all pans out. Thanks for the comment.
What does "academic standards" have to do with these atheles? If you are a top ONE HUNDRED RECRUIT you are in, PERIOD. Tell me what was Shea Patterson's sat/act score? okorn? Morris? Gardners? Robinson's? So on and so forth. EVERY UNIVERSITY will find a way to get their needs met in the recruiting arena, regardless of "academic standards". Give me ONE EXAMPLE of a TOP ONE HUNDRED RECRUIT that was denied because of "academic standards" THEY ARE DENIED BECAUSE OF CHARACTER PROBLEMS, case in point was the top q.b prospect that was recruited by MSU, but SLAMMED his teacher in front of cameras in a hallway, RECRUITING WAS OVER FOR HIM at that school for him, his sat/act score was never mentioned. Just his CHARACTER.
Lastly, nothing going for change for blue as long as harbs is intransigent
Gattis was an up and coming guy at Bama. This is a good hire. Bama was not really a spread team, but they ran a lot of multiple receiver sets. They also used Irv Smith their TE as an athletic hybrid. Which Nick Eubanks can be used as. Now I know why Gentry left!
Sounds perfect!!!!
Has Gattis ever called plays?
Look peeps.. I dont care if you bring Bill Belechick/Sean Payton/Buddy Ryan to coach U of M you dont have the Talent to be where Alabama, Clemson, OSU are..
Are you trying to say Michigan won't ever be as talented as those teams even if they recruit and coach at the same level? If so then that makes 0 fuckin sense mate.
Wow! Jim Harbaugh gave handed over the offensive playbook to Gattis? I’m somewhat impressed. We need to utilize Peoples-Jones, Nico Collins, and the other guys in the WR’s Corps. I think Oliver Martin will have a breakout season in 2019.
Why can't they hire an experienced play caller?
No coach wants to lose to Ohio State yearly...
Go Bucks
I think He is a bad hire he has never called plays And I don't think Hairball will change the place he calls
Very well could not be a good hire...only time will tell.
@@thephoolshow747 I agree hope it is
Patterson sucks. He's too small and has ZERO arm strength. If Harbaugh wants to keep his job then he has to go with Dylan McCaffrey
You are entitled to your opinion but I don't think his size matters, Murray from Oklahoma is listed at 5 ft. 10 inches, Patterson is 6 ft. 2 inches so height seems to not be a factor in greatness...arm strength I can agree that Patterson lacks deep throw accuracy. Many throws saw the WR having to slow down/stop. However, to say that almost 65% completion, 22 TD's passing, 7 int. sucks...I just don't see that. If you think McCaffery can do better, fine...but Patterson does not suck.
