Mailbag Question: How bad is this season?
How bad is this season, really?
or do we not know until we see this team next year?

Thanks for the question. There is no way to spin 3-9 as anything but horrible season.
Losing games to Toledo, Purdue, and Northwestern were absolute killers. Had the team pulled those three games out and qualified for even the Motor City Bowl you could make argument that while things were not good the bottom had not fallen out and several things you could say was still intact. Such as the bowl streak and you could sell the fans of rebuilding with new scheme, new players, new coaches, etc.
To have worse season in Michigan’s 129th history, that you will have tough time finding many positives with this season. Remember when Coach Rod was hired and he talked about when he was at the airport leaving a West Virginia fan said “you better not go 3-8 at Michigan like you did at West Virginia your first year” and remember he laughed about it along with all the media, fans, donors, etc … well nobody is laughing now.
