Blake Update
In case this didn't hit your YT feed, it's a 4:32 shot of football joy as we wait for fall camp to start.
What do you call a fridge with wheels that never stops running?
Ice cold 🧊 ❄️
William Walter Perry Peyton?
I can’t hear you. I said “what’s cooler than being cool?”
Ice Cold.
Alright alright alright alright alright alright alright alright

It's going to be a season to remember. Developing the younger players and keeping the best players fresh for the end of the season will be important.
Dear Blake,
I've been a huge Michigan Fan for 50 years now and you are one of my absolute favorite players to don the winged helmet.
Your parents must be 2 of the most wonderful people to have raised a sweet, caring and respectful young man such as yourself!
Thank you for choosing Michigan, thank you for coming back for your senior year and may you be blessed with a wonderful year personally and for the team and that your future endeavors are uber successful and satisfying, Go Blue!!!
I know what you mean. MGoBlue has its 3rd preseason video, and it's such a pleasure to see this team's spirit and camaraderie.
Amen.
Great comment SD Mick, couldn't have said it any better.
May this fine young man rush for 1500 yards, lead us to B1G and national championships, claim the Heisman, and get drafted by the new-owner Washington Commanders. Win it all and come home Blake
What a great ambassador for Michigan. This dude LOVES UM and his team. His smile is just pure joy and his play is electric. Buckle up kids, this team is different, top to bottom. I can't wait to sit back and enjoy the ride.
Title is misleading. Thought that this thread would be Blake's current neighbor updating us on what Blake brought back from the grocery store this week or if he again chose Chipotle over Qdoba. Disappointing.
Haha I clicked for the same exact reason, but didn't leave completely disappointed.
The title did immediately remind me of that Blakes neighbor post, but yeah just kidding around about the disappointment. Cool to hear his confidence about the way he's feeling and dude is just beaming with a giant smile for almost 5 minutes straight. Tough to feel anything but exuberant with a guy like that on your favorite team.
This probably says something about me, but I kind of panicked when I saw the title, because I worried that someone posted an injury rumor yesterday that I missed, and the current post was a status update. Happy to be wrong. Unhappy to be paranoid.
I don't care if I derail this entire thread, but Alexa Demie is fine as hell.
She looks like a raging bitch to me...
some dudes are attracted to that..... we refer to it as Praying Mantis Syndrome.
Some of "we" didn't refer to it that way before but will certainly do it now.
I watched that show around this time last year just to see what all the fuss was about. Sometimes it was extremely captivating, and other times I was really bored or even annoyed.
If that's what normal high school is really like.....holy crap did I live a sheltered existence back in my day. But I will say the writers did a good job at making a lot of those characters extremely unlikable, to the point where I was actively rooting against them.
Blake's positivity, worth ethic, and talent is off the charts. Awesome young man. Really looking forward to his senior year at Michigan and this season.
I keep hearing, this has to be the year, it’s now or never, from the players and coaches… I sure hope that’s not the case, should start reloading so this is the expectation every year. That or Jim has already told them this is it. I’m out after this year.
For the seniors/expected early entries of the team.
Just relax and enjoy the ride, man.
This title scared me
Got a feeling Blake will be our RBs coach a few years down the road...and Grant Newsome will be coaching the OLine.
After listening to Lane Kiffin's sob story about players not returning to his program, I'm even more proud of our coaching staff and overall culture at Michigan.
BTW, I enjoy your handle, MoTownGoBlue.
Deeeee-troit.
I thought this was going to be a Baretta thread.
I absolutely love this guy. His work ethic and positivity are off the charts.
I’m taking my son to his fb camp in gr tomorrow. He (and his old man) are super excited!
Go Blue!
Bulked up and faster. He’s gonna be like trying to tackle a ships anchor.
What I want to know is if his knee is heathy enough that he's able to squat heavy weight like he did last offseason. That's the thing that took him from a speed guy to a pile mover who also can burn you. If he hasn't been able to build up leg muscles over a few months, I worry he won't be able to drag people and get those two yards we need whenever we need them like he did so well last year
