Jesse Palmer Quote re Mattison on CFL
I don't know if anyone was watching College Football Live but Jesse Palmer just had some very interesting things to say about Greg Mattison. Below is a link of a transcript of the episode.
Here are the quotes:
Michigan and brady hoke hit a home run with greg mattison. He's one of the best people and coaches I've been around. He's a great, great recruiter, michigan needs that right now. | |
Greg mattison signed my brother to play at notre dame and best friend coached at the university offal ifful. Both told me greg mattison is not a good recruiter, he's not a great recruiter, he's legendary. Urban meyer told my best friend, stop, study and watch greg mattison learn how to recruit.

I'd assumed that Mattison's name would carry weight but his enthusiasm for recruiting would be modest, and perhaps his one weakness. Very happy to be wrong. I like the words coming out of Jesse Palmer's mouth.
January 19th, 2011 at 4:16 PM ^
He'll be an even BETTER recruiter now, because some kids WILL respond to that line. "You know, I seriously, honestly, really do know just what to do to turn you into a successful NFL defensive player."

I just went form 6 to midnight...yea, I said it.

Time to Denard in our pants
January 19th, 2011 at 6:11 PM ^
Your avatar can Denard in my pants any time she wants.
January 19th, 2011 at 8:11 PM ^
Where did you find that? Awesome.

convince diabetics to sign up for a cake eating contest...
January 19th, 2011 at 4:19 PM ^
he sold a 6 pack of catsup popsicles to a group of girls wearing white gloves. It was amazing.
January 19th, 2011 at 4:32 PM ^
He sold me all his United Pumpkin Holdings stock on November 3rd!
January 19th, 2011 at 4:47 PM ^
tommy boy reference?
January 19th, 2011 at 5:37 PM ^
and a particularly poor one at it, since he could sell a ketchup popsicle to a woman wearing white gloves.
January 19th, 2011 at 5:19 PM ^
You can get a good look at a coordinator by sticking your head up a recruit's ass...
No, it's gotta be YOUR coordinator...
January 19th, 2011 at 8:31 PM ^
You made my day with that comment, haha.
"You have de-railed." "Shut up Brady!"
January 19th, 2011 at 4:37 PM ^
the most interesting man in the world.
January 19th, 2011 at 4:13 PM ^
I can't put Jesse Palmer and CFL together and NOT think that CFL is the Canadian Football League.
January 19th, 2011 at 5:14 PM ^
January 19th, 2011 at 7:29 PM ^
I mean, what the hell is Jesse Palmer doing commenting on the CFL? Also, what is wrong with you if you are watching Jesse Palmer comment on the CFL during January?
January 19th, 2011 at 4:14 PM ^
well then. get to work, greg.
January 19th, 2011 at 4:14 PM ^
Those quotes are bonerific.

Kind of nice to hear some positive things about Michigan again. I was a RR supporter but after seeing events transpire over the past week, this was probably the best move for both parties. Bank the scholarships this year because next year we are going to fuck shit up.
January 19th, 2011 at 4:14 PM ^
ESPN CFL's just blew him for twenty minutes. I hope every Defensive recruit in the country was watching.
January 19th, 2011 at 4:46 PM ^
That guy is a legend. Good for you Mattison, that's some serious self control...
January 19th, 2011 at 4:48 PM ^
Self-control is lacking for u judging solely by your avatar.
January 19th, 2011 at 4:51 PM ^
Total man crush. I get it, it's cool.
I can't help it that I find a naked chubby dude with an afro hanging out with a mini horse funny. That's what they teach you at the Ross School of Business in case you were wondering...
January 19th, 2011 at 4:54 PM ^
Man I'm so upset that I now know it isn't you in that picture. You could have at least played it off for me.
January 19th, 2011 at 9:31 PM ^
I'm the horse
January 19th, 2011 at 5:19 PM ^
He's 61, I'm sure Cialis played it's role.
January 19th, 2011 at 6:12 PM ^
It's spelled C!Al!$
January 19th, 2011 at 4:14 PM ^
Is not the first person to say that. Everyone says Mattison is an awesome recruiter.
If he even closes in on one or two DE/DL this year, I think he will prove it.
January 19th, 2011 at 4:14 PM ^
A DC that recruits. Yes please
January 19th, 2011 at 4:16 PM ^
I take anything Jesse Palmer with a grain of salt. I mean he was on the Bachelor
January 19th, 2011 at 4:18 PM ^
he is also pretty spot on. I have been pleasantly surprised over the years with how Jesse has evaluated the college game. Guy studys and knows his stuff.
January 19th, 2011 at 4:25 PM ^
Eh, I don't know. I lose a lot of respect for someone who goes on a reality show like this one
January 20th, 2011 at 7:34 AM ^
studys? interwebs and texting are destroying my grammar. studies............
January 19th, 2011 at 4:28 PM ^
People on The Bachelor are top notch humans
January 19th, 2011 at 4:15 PM ^
convince Yankee fans to cheer for the Red Sox.
January 19th, 2011 at 4:17 PM ^
I wish I was this excited for the HC hire, but I'm really warming to the new regime. Mattison sounds exactly like what this program needs. GO BLUE!
January 19th, 2011 at 4:21 PM ^
My #1 concern was recruiting with Mattison. I was terrified we had another Gerg who was old and just sat home without recruiting! To hear this makes me BEYOND excited, great X's & O's coach combined with badass recruiter = Extreme Jubilation.
I'm becoming overwhelmed with positivity with our program...Me Likey!
January 19th, 2011 at 4:28 PM ^
I'm with you, but I am pumped to see what kind of recruits Mattison brings to UM in the next two weeks and the coming years.
January 19th, 2011 at 4:32 PM ^
Don't know why you would be worried, the guy has a reputation as being one of the best recruiters in the county.
January 19th, 2011 at 4:56 PM ^
NRK - His recruiting was a complete unknown to me until these recent public backings. I knew he was a helluva coach, just didn't know that he was such a sniper on the recruiting trails.
Hopefully he has some blue chips in his cross hairs!
Maybe someone with photo shop skillz could give us our top targets in crosshairs!
January 19th, 2011 at 4:21 PM ^
Proven track record, excellent recruiter, Michigan ties, bald, so he's basically the anti-GERG. Excellent.
January 19th, 2011 at 4:39 PM ^
you missed "has always stressed fundamentals and technique."
To me, that's as anti-GERG as you can hope to get.
January 19th, 2011 at 4:40 PM ^
Charts.
January 19th, 2011 at 6:14 PM ^
Does that count hair on the back/torso and legs or just the head?
January 19th, 2011 at 4:34 PM ^
I didn't see his tenure at the University Offal Ifful on his resume. Weird.
