December 17th, 2011 at 5:13 PM ^

December 17th, 2011 at 11:31 PM ^
It's not a tumor. It's not a tumor, at all.
December 17th, 2011 at 5:24 PM ^
Put you hands against the wall and arch your back towards me.
December 17th, 2011 at 6:03 PM ^
a bunch of questions and I want them answered immediately.
December 17th, 2011 at 5:02 PM ^
It sounds like his buddy is a high school coach in texas. Congrats to Gray, him and Malcolm Brown are gonna be a great combo for Texas
December 17th, 2011 at 5:04 PM ^
Texas still won't be good

Gray, recently named a winner of the Gatorade National Player of the Year award, fell short on another of Hart's national records -- for career points scored. Gray finished with 1,232 points -- 14 behind Hart's total.
December 17th, 2011 at 5:29 PM ^
That's interesting. I didn't know Hart had National records like that. I knew he was only a 3*... i think? Anyways congrats to Mr. Gray!
December 17th, 2011 at 6:42 PM ^
Mike Hart is the second leading rusher in the history of US high school footvall, behind only a gjuy from Sugar Land , TX
Considering that Hart rarely played in the fourth quarter in HS, this is quite the accomplishment.
I knew kids from Dobbs Ferry, NY, who ran into Hart's team in the state semis. Against a team that gave up 14 points all year (none by the first string), Hart ran for 460+ yards and 6 touchdowns.
December 17th, 2011 at 9:33 PM ^
Why was he rated so low coming out of high school? Size and projection at the next level?
December 17th, 2011 at 5:36 PM ^
Gray breaking the record is impressive, but it's even more impressive that Hart kept the record for eight years. With tons of schools using wide-open offenses, and more schools getting into playoffs in almost every state, you would think that the record would be broken every couple of years or so.
Hart's record stood for six years longer than one would think it would. That's impressive.
December 17th, 2011 at 8:25 PM ^
Even more impressive!
December 17th, 2011 at 6:08 PM ^
A bunch of pictures of ice cream and the tagline, "A Higher Education." I think we all know to whom they're advertising.
December 17th, 2011 at 6:15 PM ^
Meant to post this in the football open thread...
December 17th, 2011 at 8:06 PM ^
If one looked hard enough, I'm sure one would see the link between ice cream, higher education, and Johnathan Gray.
December 17th, 2011 at 6:58 PM ^
Texas will be good again when they run Mack out of town!
December 17th, 2011 at 8:04 PM ^
Can we get a sad Mike Hart face someone?
December 17th, 2011 at 8:32 PM ^
...the kid is like Sam McGuffie, only tanner.
December 17th, 2011 at 8:36 PM ^
my god.
I knew Mike Hart was a good player. But....
is it safe to say his high school career actually exceeded his career at Michigan? Despite him being such a good player here, I had no idea that he was one of the best players in high school football history.
NATIONAL high school football history.
Wow.
December 17th, 2011 at 9:23 PM ^
glad to hear kids pushing hard. Never was on the Mike Hart train...just seemed to me like he was always gimpy when we needed him or things were tough...but was able to put on his helmet when the moment was there to bask in the glow...probably just a sour note or such, but I have some memories of seeing him on an exercise bike peddling like mad when we really needed him to be on the field...then when we took a lead he was fine...don't know, just never felt real good about the kid, and in particular his mouth at times..like the whole little brother comment that always seems to come back and bite us in the arse.
December 17th, 2011 at 9:35 PM ^
you're right...Michigan's career leading rusher never delivered on the field
December 17th, 2011 at 9:53 PM ^
haa...said I just had a bad taste from the kid...don't really know why...just how it goes. Thanks for the highlight video. I'd rather see Wheatly or Bunch personally =) or what a kid like Whilcher could have done had he stayed out of Bo's dog house...
December 17th, 2011 at 10:47 PM ^
you are not fooling us. This is really funny.
December 17th, 2011 at 11:06 PM ^
is anything other than him giving everything he had every second he was on the field, then you have a horrendously inaccurate memory.
December 18th, 2011 at 10:58 AM ^
Also, the inexplicable yards after contact. Those were glorious.
December 17th, 2011 at 11:58 PM ^
... that may very well be the single DUMBEST thing ever posted in the bright & beautiful history of Mgoblog!!!
I mean, are you even the leastest bit serious?!?? NOBODY ever played harder, gave more, to the Maize & Blue than "Michigan" Mike.
Whatever causes your "bad taste" I seriously recommend maybe consulting a physician ... you might have a real problem there. It appears to be affecting not just your taste buds, but your eyesight & memory as well.
December 18th, 2011 at 11:39 AM ^
I simply didn't care for the guy. Just my opinion of him...dumbest ever blogged or not, I'd watch a thousand other backs before you could pay me to care about Mike Hart..no doctor required but I certainly appreciate the advice and concern. It's all good on my end, say what you want lol..love fest away, he's not my favorite by a longshot leaving it alone from there, I've made my feelings on 'big brother' well know...so be it.
December 18th, 2011 at 11:44 AM ^
pardon me, but get the fuck out of here. are you some shmuck pretending to be a Michigan fan? because you have now posted some of the most spectacularly stupid shit we have ever read.
December 18th, 2011 at 12:43 PM ^
Mike Hart is a Michigan legend and was the heart of the program while he was here. No need to argue about that with this clown.
December 18th, 2011 at 9:22 PM ^
so I didn't care for him...get over it already, ...life goes on...Jesus...was there some fucking code book of mindless herding I missed when I signed up? fuck off already...didn't realize we lest be judged by our ordained opinion of Saint Michael of Hart...it's a wonder SOME folks view SOME UM fans/alum as arrogant ...#sarcasm...wholy get over yourself already.
December 18th, 2011 at 9:07 AM ^
His teammates apparently disagree with you, seeing as how he was voted co-MVP in 2006, and elected a captain for 2007. Other than that, let's look at this premise. The guy you're saying didn't give his all holds the following Michigan records:
Rushing attempts (1,015)
Rushing yards (5,040)
Most games over 100 yards (28)
Most games over 200 yards (5)
What exactly did you expect out of this guys career?
December 18th, 2011 at 12:32 AM ^
so is this where the sandusky jokes go?
I heard penn state is switching to the no huddle offense for their bowl game. Not the spread, mind you. Just no more huddling.
bat dat psshhhhhhh
December 18th, 2011 at 1:02 AM ^
Getting a good laugh out of that situation, you sick fuck?
December 18th, 2011 at 2:29 AM ^
No one cares, Mike Hart was a loud mouth little prick.
December 18th, 2011 at 10:56 AM ^
Banhammer plz.
