Michigan Fans Are STRUGGLING Right Now 😔 | Bussin'
Buying a house is an unusual test of football commitment, but that is where the Michigan discussion goes on Bussin' With The Boys. A panelist asks whether Jay Hill is the only coach who has bought a home, prompting an argument about how fully a staff should commit to a new job.
The host says he has heard that Kyle Whittingham and Jason Beck are renting. Another panelist offers a defense of keeping family arrangements separate from demanding coaching hours, but the host isn't persuaded: "Hey, then don't take the job, bro."
That distinction matters in the comments. Several viewers argue that renting after a cross-country move is ordinary, allowing time to learn an unfamiliar area before buying. The housing arrangements are something the panel discusses, not proof of anyone's dedication.
The clip then shifts from property to football vocabulary. The host objects to a reference to upcoming "trophy games," insisting the focus should be "The Game," Michigan's rivalry with Ohio State. For a show co-hosted by former Michigan tackle Taylor Lewan, that terminology carries some weight.
The Short drew about 40,000 views in its first 12 hours, already well beyond the channel's usual full-day audience for the format. Two Rex Ryan clips also made unusually fast starts, revisiting the infamous Butt Fumble and his combustible history with Bill Belichick.

What viewers say
Idk about in coaching, but in LIFE in general it is super, super common to rent for a year when you move across the country to a brand new area. You don’t know if you’ll like your neighborhood/location in the city and such. Tons of people do this.
@jacksontrotter1411See it on YouTubeI would keep Jay Hill around as a HC for a year if Michigan doesn't get one of their top targets. The defense has been solid and motivated despite having to watch THAT offense perform.
