How long until we are back in the national spotlight
Filed under:
How long will it be before the Wolverines are back in the national spot light? Will it be this year? Can coach R get us back where we so badly need to be? I don't know what has happen to the program, we have had some ups and downs before, I just want to know how long you guys think it will be until we get back to winning. I just want the football program back on top where we should be.Mentioned with the Florida, USC, and OSU's. Oh, how I hate OSU we need to win a game against them soon.Why can they take shots at us and we just take it. We need to get back at them. Lets get mad and get even, and I am tired of just gettinga lead nd sitting on it. Lets start running up the points on teams. Do you know how many games, I have been to that we got off to a good lead and in the second half we played conservitive and the team gets back into the game This is stupid we pull our starter and just let them back in the game. While, all the other schools run the points up and look great. we need to change our attitude and begin playing 21 century football not the old style. Wins aren't good enough anymore we need to win and win with a style of dominance.

Exactly! Unfortunately, this
Exactly! Unfortunately, this isn't the only case of this happenning recently. I know some members have excellent diaries as first posts, but that seems to be the exception rather than the rule. To solve this, I think the best solution is to impose a restriction that doesn't allow new members to post a diary for somewhere between a week and a month allowing them to get acquainted with the style of posting that usually happens here.

Yeah, 90 days might be a much for this board, just because if you join at the beginning of the season you can't get full access until after it's done. Something along those lines would be nice though, and I'm sure Brian's thought about it (and read about it on this board as we've been talking about it every time there's a terrible post).

Hey, if the OP is young, maybe he thinks UM players should carry "gats" onto the field and bust a cap on someone if they dare begin to outplay the Wolverines???

One Other Point
One Other Point
While I also believe we have two pretty good choaches, we must remember that they have totally different approaches (choaches with approaches) that are vastly different from previous choaching regimes and not only are they building from scratch, but a LOT of other changes are going on at the same time--infrastructure changes that leaves choaches having to tell recruits, "Just wait till this stuff is done! Looky here--here are some pictures of what it will look like"
Choach Rodriguez is also facing a negative recruiting and negative press that has plenty of ammo and has been voracious in undermining what he has been trying to do--and much of it was beyond his control, like the infighting at UM HQ that is widely being rumored on some of the "pay sites."
I think you worry first about real, visible improvement, wins and losses--a steadying of the ship, if you will, at first, beginning with a respectable record this year and a bowl game. As far as the national spotlight, UM hasn't been in a terribly positive national spotlight very much over the last decade other than some bowl victories, especially the Florida game.
I do have one suggestion for the OP: There is a "message board" to post ideas that are more of the "fishing type"--such as this one. I mean, it's probably the same kind of thread you've (and 16 zillionty forty eleven hundred others) have started on Scout or Rivals, and it's probably the same question you've asked about 80 hundred forty gillion people on the street--so do it here, too!
Diaries are sacred posting space, and space from which to get it right, or get plastered.
That being said, it is what it is.

does someone think that "choach" is the correct spelling of "coach"? The word "coach" is a notch more difficult than "cat" or "dog". Anyway, sturner sounds like a troll. "Winningest program in the world"? Fan since "the day I came out of my mom"? Okay.

if he went to his first ND game at 5 and has been to every ame since 1985 (that's a lot of road games), he's 29 at the minimum. That's a scary thought, since he has the right to vote and operate a motor vehicle out on our roads.

Needing to have 20 points to
Needing to have 20 points to
Needing to have 20 points to write diaries is one of my 2 biggest problems with the point system and by far the easiest one to fix. Not only do we get bad diaries but there have been some diaries that were posted as diaries instead of board topics just because the poster lacked the necessary points.
August 1st, 2009 at 8:39 PM |
Second
Second
I would like to second that Diaries should be limited to people who have at least a certain # of points and maybe have been a member for a certain period of time.
Also as nice as the AL CENTRAL post was today - I think that diaries should at least be related to Michigan, college sports, or the university in general... and not just a midwest based baseball division. A nice posting like the AL Central one can be a MGoboard creation.
Also, I know that certain PRO teams are generally more popular on this website - but we don't need daily posts that go: OT: Marcus Thames is 0-2 discuss.

I really do. And this is only a suggestion. I think you should read more and write less for two years. Read a lot, and from many sources. That will fix you right up.

I Suggest One More Aid
When I was a kid, we didn't have the intranets. Research consisted of picking up an encyclopedia and rewriting it, verbatim, and urning that in as an "essay" or a "report." And you didn't have o do any "citing."
That's what I'd suggest to not just the OP< but many young kids who write so poorly. I really believe that copying from encyclopedias, books, or magazines back then helped us become ingrained with at least decent writing.
Now to the OP--aside from reading for two years, I am assigning you the book of "G" from Encyclopedia (Whatever). You are to copy the entire book, or books, of "G" word for word, and then you may post again.
That being said, it is what it is.
