gone in 3-5 years but the team and program he would build in the process<br>

is a great step to bigger programs. <br>

If Harbaugh does not work out, give Kramer the chance. I think he is<br>
also one of those coaches who wants to move up the ladder. <br>

I agree with your points about education, Donovan, but must disagree<br>
with " <br>
Erickson leaving is a symptom, not a cause of what is wrong with UI." <br>
Erickson leaving is what's wrong with Erickson. Or, He Whose Name Shall<br>
