Ah-ha!:

Michigan has fired head football coach Rich Rodriguez after three seasons, according to Fox 2 News in Detroit and the Detroit Free Press.

Rodriguez was 15-22 overall during his Michigan tenure and just 1-10 against ranked opponents. The Wolverines ended this season with a 52-14 loss to Mississippi State in the Gator Bowl, the worst bowl loss in school history.

Rodriguez's job status has been a hot topic all season. AD Dave Brandon elected to wait until after Michigan's bowl game to decide whether to fire Rodriguez.

Rodriguez was also 0-6 against Ohio State and Michigan State, Michigan's biggest football rivals.

That is this Rich Rodriguez, who used to coach at WVU.

an unflattering comparison (4.00 / 1)
Rodriguez was 15-22 overall during his Michigan tenure and just 1-10 against ranked opponents.

And, how did his replacement at WVU do? 28-12 overall. My best guess is about .500 against ranked opponents.
