Jedd and Michigan
I think Jedd would more than likely take the Michigan job if offered. However there are two reasons I think it wouldn’t be a slam dunk for him.
- If his goal is to really make it back to the NFL, where is that accomplished faster? At Michigan which will likely be a complete mess in light of all the AD dysfunction, or at Washington which might be an CFP team next year? Plus he’d get more credit for making the CFP out of Washington even if that’s unfair.
- Michigan seems married to Bryce underwood, does Jedd really abandon Demond? Does Michigan let Jedd kick underwood to the curb? Might be an underrated hangup.

dude might have left if offered the ucla job. I don't think he is thinking that hard.

we don’t know that. The only “reporting” that ever actually suggested it was almost certainly sourced by the two Arizona 247 retards

he has a CONTRACT

The dramatic curiosity of Jedd having to tell his daughters he’s going to coach even further away from them has me intrigued

You are joking every time you say this, right?
Just about every coach who leaves a school had a contract -
That's the joke.

People really overcomplicate this stuff. Coaches at this level are insanely driven narcissists. Their DNA is constantly moving from spot to spot to “move up.” Jedd personifies this more than most. Sure there are some outliers (Dillingham appears to be one), but they are the exception that proves the rule.
Michigan is in another stratosphere for these clout chasers when compared to UW. (Although it is to UW’s credit that we only lose coaches to legit top-5 jobs like USC and Alabama).If Jedd gets the call, he’s gone. He likely thought he’d need a breakout year next year to even sniff a job like Michigan. If it comes early, all the better. If they tell him to leave Demond behind, he will do so in a heartbeat.
Now, it’s still unclear to me why Michigan would want to hire him??

I would tend to agree with you now that Ellison is more involved there but it still doesn't change that Michigan is a dumpster right now. I think they have an interim President and an AD who probably should be shit canned in the next week or two, depending on how quickly the law firm can conduct its investigation. When does the dust settle there?
