OMG Pantsless, OMG Hopeless

By Brian — September 19th, 2008 at 2:26 PM — 26 comments

Two pictures that somehow summarize the directions of two linked programs follow. Be careful with your eyebrows, folks.

There have been a lot of changes in Michigan's program over the last few months, ranging from the expected (lots of shotgun, zone read option) to the… well…

terrence-robinson-manmeat

…unexpected profusion of naked freshmen. Earlier this year we had the assortment of shirtless helmeted guys; now we've got freshman wideout Terrance Robinson without a helmet. Or anything else except an arched eyebrow and all that promises in the way of smooth jazz and smoother lovin'.

Meanwhile, this screencap will haunt Bill Stewart for the rest of time.

bill-stewart-omg-eyes

There's nothing more to say. This is Bill Stewart, now and forever. It's over.

Yeah, I feel a little sorry for WVU.  I hope they do turn it around eventually.  Having said that, it is a tad satisfying to see that without RR, they can't sustain their greatness.

I gotta believe the high-profile Tennessee alums have to be livid. I bet he'll be the highest profile coach to depart after this season, unless JoePa or Bowden take a hike.

MSU is a solid team, but Dantonio's offense makes Carr look wild and crazy. zzzzzzzz.
