After leading the Wolverines to a 10-2 (6-2 Big Ten) record in his first season, Michigan head coach Brady Hoke has been named the Hayes-Schembechler Coach of the Year, as selected by conference coaches, and the Dave McClain Coach of the Year, as picked by the media.
Hoke becomes only the 5th Big Ten coach to win ten games in his first season joining Wisconsin’s Bret Bielema (12-1, 2006), Ohio State’s Earle Bruce (11-1, 1979), Yost (11-0, 1901) and Minnesota’s Henry Williams (10-0-2, 1900).
Hoke can further capitalize on a tremendous first year with Michigan when his team learns their Bowl selection on Sunday (Dec. 4) at 8:15 p.m. during the Bowl Selection Special on ESPN.
