Carr officially steps down

By Staff     Nov 20, 2007

? Lloyd Carr alternately choked up and chuckled for nearly 40 minutes Monday, as he announced his 13th season as Michigan football coach would be his last.

The best of Carr’s ability brought Michigan a national title and five Big Ten championships. It also included an unsightly loss to Appalachian State to open this season and a fourth consecutive defeat and sixth in seven years to Jim Tressel and Ohio State to close it.

Carr will coach the Wolverines in their bowl game. Following the bowl game he will become an associate athletic director.

Potential candidates include LSU’s Les Miles, Iowa’s Kirk Ferentz and Oklahoma’s Bob Stoops.
