Kevin Grady Opens The Fulmer Cup Account

Kevin Grady mug shot:

Why? DUI. Obviously not a stellar moment in Grady's life but his first misstep; likely a short suspension and then a return to normal service. "Normal service" in this case has been three yards followed by a fumble, but hey, you recover those fumbles and it's second and seven and if you're USC that's time to play the V song.

Fulmer cup projection: one point, Michigan's first of the Rodriguez era.

0.281!!!!!!!
How the hell did Grady only get charged with DUI when his BAC was 0.281? Isn't a DWI used for BAC over the legal limit?

Deserves a serious suspension
I'm not comfortable with how trivial everyone is making a DUI out to be.

3.5x Legal Limit?
The fact that Kevin Grady was still conscious is his most impressive performance to date. Not too good for a senior and 5 star recruit. It will be interesting to see what comes of this.

Grady Bros
So it's official that both Grady brothers are out of a job by 2009? Kelvin will be supplanted by the Arizona two-name transfer and, well, it's not like Kevin ever challenged for Hart's spot. He had such high expectations too...

This sucks but I'm kind of glad that I've now learned Wyoming is actually a part of Michigan and not a separate state as I had previously been mislead to believe.

In related news, Idaho isn't  a state either- it's what my grandma says after too many scotch and waters. Then she petsers me about my freshman year roommate and asks for his number.  Because I'm a bastard, I give it to her, and she calls him up and says she knows "tricks".  True story.*         *For once this is not actually a true story, it's just reason #874 why I'm going to Hell.

The book
I can see Coach Rodriguez making an example out of Mr. Grady given the competition at tailback this season. I think the message that it sends, not only to the team, but to the alumni, that with the change of regime there will still be the highest standards of conduct off of the field is very important to send.

Suspension?
I would be suprised if he got anything more than a quarter.  This is his first offense and I think RR will turn him over to "eeeeeee" Barwis and that is worse than losing  playing time.   I really doubt "eeeeeee" Barwis will only make Grady run the stadium stairs (i.e. Adrian Arrington).  I would put money down that nothing happens again concerning Mr Grady and law enforcement.

I have nothing clever or witty to say and no blog to link to ... sorry

"but hey, you recover those fumbles and it's second and seven and if you're USC that's time to play the V song." Ain't that the truth, I can't stand that damn song.

But has Grady established a tendency to fumble forwards or backwards? That could have a serious effect on his playing time this fall. Did Mallett spend any time teaching him how to fumble to an athletic and quick-thinking teammate before he left?

look at him
That's the look of a kid who knows he just fucked up big time. He's pissed, but at himself. I think if he busts his ass as stays clean as a whistle he'll been given a second (and only) chance to redeem himself. But yeah, he'll be suspended for a while regardless.

Grady's family does not live
Grady's family does not live in Wyoming, they actually live in the quite nice suburb of Forest Hills (similar to a Bloomfield type area).  Wyoming Grand Rapids' version Wayne or Dearborn, I'm not sure why he was there.

His family actually lives in Rockford. he school of choiced it to EGR - pretty interesting story of why he did not not actually play for rockford, but time prohibits me!

Not to start a stupid argument, but his family lives in Ada, and their house is within the Forest Hills Eastern School district, only about a mile from the high school.  He would have played for Forest Hills Northern (FHE did not exist yet) had he not done school of choice.  The only reason I know this is becaue I played football for FHN when Grady and EGR was running over everybody, us included.

Grady
Many Rich Rod haters say he is lax in discipline, citing cases of Adam Jones and Chris Henry. Let's see how he handles it. If I was Grady, I'd be more worried about Barwis.
Posted on: July 2nd, 2008 at 1:12 PM #30
I will be working his ass off!!
Get ready to be at the big house running the stairs at 5:30 am!  You know the haters will also say that the RR era has now officially started even though he wasn't the one who recruited Grady to UM.

GO BLUE!

@Blueballs: As someone who has spent an inordinate amount of time on both sides of the bar I'd say he looks more ashamed than inebriated- notice he's looking down. Kinda like he knows it's gonna get out and he's screwed. @TwoSchools: Wyoming, MI. It's near GR.

Grady
I think RR will come down hard on him. With the depth at running back, I expect Mr. Grady to be in a GVSU uniform soon.

RR's reaction?
It'll be interesting to see how RR deals with his first instance of a Michigan player getting into legal trouble. I suspect he'll deal with it similar to how he did at WVa (which was how, pray tell???) but probably a little bit harsher because of A) more scrutiny at M, and B) to set a precedent.

Looks large. Didn't he slim down apparently? If I can surmise that he is out of shape from a mugshot thasn he will clearly lack top end speed.
