Wolverine coach to announce retirement
BY LARRY LAGE ASSOCIATED PRESS
ANN ARBOR, Mich. — Michigan coach Lloyd Carr will retire Monday after 13 seasons, ending an era marked by highs of winning a national championship and five
Big Ten titles and lows of losing to Ohio State and FCS opponent Appalachian State.
Carr told The Associated Press of his decision Sunday by phone, saying he wouldn't comment further until a Monday morning news conference at the school.
The 62-year-old coach informed his players and staff of his retirement Sunday during a team meeting at Schembechler Hall.
"It's a hard thing to deal with," safety Jamar Adams said. "We're like a family, and when the head of your family is leaving, it's hard."
The news comes a day after Michigan lost to Ohio State for the fourth straight year, ending a trying season for Carr and the Wolverines that started with an embarrassing loss to second-tier Appalachian State.
winter when he altered his contract, paving the way for this to be his last season on the sideline, and later made sure the school gave all of his assistants unprecedented, two-year deals.
It was a move many expected last
Carr is 121-40 with a .752 winning percentage, ranking him seventh among active coaches just behind Florida State's Bobby Bowden and ahead of South Carolina's Steve Spurrier before he retired.
