What people are saying across social media about Brady Hoke

By Stefanie Murray

Brady Hoke is the new head football coach at the University of Michigan — and already, he's getting advice from armchair quarterbacks across the social media sphere. Here's a peek into what people are saying across two of the most popular social media platforms, Facebook and Twitter:

From a search on Facebook:

Bob Burke: "Good hire, glad to see a Michigan man back in power."

Brian Welch: "Yes, a good hire. He's improved every team he's coached. He knows Michigan ways and traditions and the role they play. He can rebuild the team and the strained relationships that have been damaged over the past few years. Too often Michigan... fans want a perfect hire and there is no such thing. Harbaugh went elsewhere, Miles was never interested, and Bo is burried. Even Bo was thought of negatively upon first hire and fans screamed about this coach no one had ever heard of. We've had enough negativity and messy situations that have damaged the universities good name. Now it's time for Michigan fans to man up and support the team and new coach so we can win. In three to years win or lose you can say whatever you want."

Canzhi Ye: "Gotta support the coach. Rich rod never got the support he deserved from the fan base. Can't make that mistake again. I'm going Hoke can turn it around!"

Christopher Davis: "Can any of my Michigan folks...or UofM fans tell me who Hoke is (inject sarcasm!). Really? A national search and this...?"

Ryan Longworth: "So glad I don't have to put up with "the mad hatter" and his bone head calls next yr...the Brady Hoke Era time for him to bring Michigan back to the top where they belong."
