John O’Korn has some tough words for Michigan football

Having transferred to Ann Arbor at the start of the Jim Harbaugh era, there were high expectations for former Houston quarterback John O’Korn. But they never came to fruition.

O’Korn had to sit out the 2015 season due to the transfer rules back then, and though expected by many to win the starting job in 2016, he was passed by for Wilton Speight. However, O’Korn played for an injured Speight for one game in 2016 and played the bulk of the 2017 season after Speight was injured again in the Big Ten opener at Purdue that year.

The 2017 season with O’Korn at the helm featured a moribund offensive attack, much derided by the maize and blue faithful. But it’s much worse this year. And the first person to tell you that? O’Korn himself.

Watching his alma mater drop the first game against Indiana since 2020 and the first in front of fans since 1987, the former Wolverine had some choice words on X (formerly Twitter).

If you’re wondering how bad things are in Ann Arbor right now…. even I was 2-0 against IU

Ouch.

O’Korn beat Indiana at home in 2016 in what’s affectionately remembered as the snow globe game and again in overtime on the road in 2017.

It should be noted that the Hoosiers under Curt Cignetti are experiencing highs that the program has never reached, at 10-0 for the first time in the team’s history.
