Will Hoke coach a Heisman winner?
Carr and Moeller both did it relatively early in their careers. Hell, RR had Denard on track to do it in September 2010...
Do you think it will happen under Hoke? At what position?
Just wanted to start some speculation with this topic, its not like we're impatiently tapping our feet here.
I doubt there will be another defensive winner like Woodson, but I think we can have an RB be a finalist (D. Smith maybe?)
Shane Morris, duh
I'm going to go out on a limb here and guess that DeVeon Smith will not win a Heisman.
That wasn't a story, BRO.
maybe so, but there are a lack of "cool reply bro" pics on the internet.

"Cool Story Bro" was funny the first hundred times or so, but it really just isn't that funny after the thousandth repitition. Maybe it's time to come up with something new, creative, and more in line with mgoblog's reputation as THE most intelligent sports community on the internet.

"Insert extreme and stupid comment here"
Sincerely,
"Insert person/people you are making fun of here".
People take these internet "meme's" (which itself is has become a bit of an internet "meme" in its own sense, seeing as it doesn't actually mean what most people think it means) and run them into the ground. It's kind of like Sports Center covering sports news. I DON'T CARE ABOUT JOE PA'S HOUSE! PUT ON THE MICHIGAN/ILLINOIS GAME!
Smith looks to be a more athletic Rawls. Rawls looks like he is going to be a bruiser but doesn't have any shake in his hips. This is no issue for a short yardage back which seems to be his thing moving forward.

Nothing a little Shakira couldn't fix.
because according to you, at least, all of Michigans commits suck!
(only half kidding)
Right now 6 of our 17 commits are "good chance of All-Big Ten" or better, 4 are "average Big Ten starters," and the rest are in between.
But yeah, I think they all suck. That seems accurate.

I swear every thread there is somebody raging on him.
Dude knows a fuck-ton more about football than most of us (certainly me), works his ass off to evaluate their skills and writes some really high quality analysis.
Just because a few of his opinions aren't popular doesn't mean their wrong, or that Magnus isn't being genuine in his reports. Can't people grow up a bit and learn to have some civil disagreements without auto-hating on any information we may not like?
Now I'm not saying Magnus is infallible, infact he's had a pretty shaky time of it the last couple years.
He's lost quite a bit of confidence due to what I call Underperforming Cox®.
Magnus suffered from Underperforming Cox for years without seeking help, and frankly, not a lot of support from his MGoBretheren either.
His self esteem has taken a hit (as you could imagine) and I for one think it's time we all stepped up and welcomed Magnus back into the comforting embrace of the MGoBlog groupthink.
So let's all do our best to remind Magnus that his Cox problems are behind him.
Go Blue!

I'm getting better. It turns out I just had a case of Vincentsmithitis, but now that I got a dose of Toussaint, my Underperforming Cox has been cured.
April 23rd, 2012 at 11:02 AM ^
Let's just hope his underperforming Cox doesn't become an overperforming Cox on Sept 15... I feel dirty saying that on multiple levels.
I fully expect Hoke to coach the rest of his career at Michigan and since he will win at least 4 National Championships, there has to be one on one of those teams, right?
Errr, Hoke is going to be coaching at FSU in the next 4 years?
down there. We all know he's not keeping the ND job for long.
That all ya got bro?
Fitz or Denard this year.
Smith or Issac hopefully!
DAMMIT, IT'S ISAAC.
Sorry - Monday morning - but seriously.
my bad.
How about a better question...Will Hoke coach a B1G Ten champion? Will Hoke coach a National Champion?
I'll let you make those threads. Sound fair?
in threads that you create, it typically doesn't go over too well.
Hey, he's our new coach
And this is crazy
He might have a heisman winner
But he'd rather have accountability
Hey, I just saw you
Make a nice post
But it was shoehorned
You made it, almost.
Peewee Pipkins?
It is Ondre Pipkins as he gets 20 sacks and 3 tds his junior year. He will be the Charles Woodson of D-Linemen, when they put him at fullback on goaline plays.
Seeing 3 TDS doesn't make me think of a fullback getting an occasional carry a la The Fridge. It makes me think of Shaun Rogers, snagging pick sixes.
ANOTHER PEEWEE PICK SIX!
If we're being technical about it, Hoke already has coached a Heisman winner
Jordon MF Kovacs will win the inaugural "JMFK Trophy", awarded every year to the senior capping off the best (former) walk-on career. The trophy itself will feature Underdog in a winged football helmet burying a QB.
After all, in his 1st season, he produced a Remington Award winner!!
but it's the "Rimington Award" that goes to the nation's best center... named after Dave Rimington, not the rifles or electric shavers.
I think it's going to take a few years before anybody in the Big Ten can produce a Heisman winner. First we have to get rid of the stygma that our conference is not as good as the SEC or explosive as the PAC 12. I think that with Michigan and Ohio State we are on our way to doing that.
Also, I don't see Denard winning the Heisman this year. And to the guy that said Levenberry - really?

In Re: The Levenberry comment
Please adjust your "amirite" meter. Thank you.
I don't think there's a problem with the "amirite" meter.. First, there's the question of whether Levenberry is going to commit to UM or FSU. I won't even get into that because it seems like an even split... But let's say he does get to UM, someone is saying he is going to win the Heisman? That's all my comment was about - the odds of a linebacker winning the Heisman in these days are quite small
I revise my comment. Please purchase an "amirite" meter. You clearly do not possess one.
I know a Dutchman by that name in Ada, but why should we get rid of him?
I personally don't care about the Heisman. It's at least half PR. Two words for everyone: Gino Torretta.
Why not ask, instead, if Hoke will coach a #1 draft pick? That would be worth far more than the trophy for "Most Valuable Offensive Player for a Generally Popular Team from a Power Conference that Wins at Least Ten Games," or whatever the Heisman really means.
Well, Michigan is a popular school...and we won 11 games last season. Maybe we're due.

I want to know if Hoke will every coach a Polar Bear. That would be exciting.
Alaska has cornered the market for athletic polar bears, I’m afraid. It’s in hockybear’s non-compete clause.

Will coach Hoke ever coach a Polar Bear? What else would you like to see Coach Hoke coach?
A mother f*in' Pterodactyl?
A bearodactyle?
