A fact from Brady Hoke appeared on Wikipedia's Main Page in the Did you know column on 20 January 2011 (check views). The text of the entry was as follows:

Did you know... that it had been said that the new Michigan Wolverines football coach Brady Hoke would "crawl on hot, broken glass to work inside Schembechler Hall as the head coach"?

A record of the entry may be seen at Wikipedia:Recent additions/2011/January.

Wikipedia

Controversies section?

I think as America enters a period of questioning the brutality of football, that a controversies page or section be created for coaches that have a record of sending players with potential neurological issues back onto the field. As the interest in CTE grows, and tracking players and coaches with potential links to victims of CTE, a controversy page be added.

In this case, I think we need to add a section for Brady Hoke on the reported allegations that he sent Shane Morris back into play in 2014 shortly before his termination at Michigan.

Here we have a New York Times article reporting on this

and here is the video replay from the game

Also, for full transparency, I was shocked at the Bills game and of course last nights Miami's game with Tua's injury. AFairChild110 (talk) 12:21, 30 September 2022 (UTC)[reply]

We might arguably be able to justify including a one-sentence reference to the Morris incident, but I would strongly oppose hinting at any sort of connection between that incident and Hoke's firing. He was fired for losing games, plain and simple. LEPRICAVARK (talk) 21:13, 30 September 2022 (UTC)[reply]

The Michigan Wolverines football seasons page said Michigan finished the 2014 season at 5th in the East Division rather than tied at 4th. Can anyone fix the typo? Please. 2601:40A:8400:1820:D08D:D8AD:397A:72F6 (talk) 18:41, 9 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Not done: please provide reliable sources that support the change you want to be made. - FlightTime (open channel) 18:42, 9 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Check the Wikipedia page for Michigan Football seasons. It proves that Michigan finished 5th in the East division in 2014, not tied for 4th. 2601:40A:8400:1820:D08D:D8AD:397A:72F6 (talk) 20:06, 9 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
