Ann Arbor, Mich. ? Rich Rodriguez fired Michigan’s assistant coaches Thursday, his second day as an employee of the school. Rodriguez met with the coaches one by one at Schembechler Hall, as retiring coach Lloyd Carr packed up his belongings in boxes, clearing space for his successor.
“I can understand that he wants to bring in the people that have been with him for years,” defensive coordinator Ron English told the Associated Press after having dinner with the coaching staff. “But when you lose your job, it’s hard.”
