getting into the black
When you're at about -100, you need to make a celebratory thread so we can all bang you home to positive digits.

Test the Power of the Pos-Bang?
Maybe we should test the power of the pos-bang? Anyone think we could get him in the black with one pos-bang thread right now?? Could be a fun Friday afternoon activity . . .

If he posts a few times
I'll bet it could happen if he posts in it like 4 times. Then everyone that comes accross it can rock him up 4 times.

Yes, your rise from the ashes
Yes, your rise from the ashes has been one of the great positive stories of 2010 and early 2011. An appropriate celebration must be in order.

I guess I don't understand
I guess I don't understand why Goudis switched his commitment. How much of a change in philosophies can it be for the kicker?

His responsibilities are not
His responsibilities are not changing, but who he has to answer to has changed, and unless he was totally sold on the school, why not look elsewhere? Especially if that school has coaches on staff who you would be answering to, unlike Michigan, as far as I know. I don't think Goudis would be gone had this transition happened earlier, but it might be a little late for us with a Miami visit in recent memory for him as he decides where he'll attend in the coming weeks.
January 14th, 2011 at 3:31 PM
#325
he's going to Miami
because he caught wind that Hoke might bring a coach on that would supervise kickers and that's, like, not his style.
January 14th, 2011 at 3:31 PM
#326
I think there was a laces out
I think there was a laces out versus laces in issue. Hoke likes 'em in.

Can someone explain to me why
Can someone explain to me why a coaching change makes a kicker decommit? Dude, you wack off during practice all day and then kick the ball every once in a while. You aren't guaranteed to go to the NFL, so go to a school that will give you a degree that will mean something when you graduate. If you are chasing hot chicks at Miami, don't worry about it. You are a kicker and you'll never pull ass anyway.

If I had to guess, he
If I had to guess, he probably changed his commit to here because of either RichRod or whichever coach on the staff that was recruiting him. That relationship was severed when the coaching staff was fired. Maybe that was a good part of the reason he decided to come here. Maybe the turmoil of the coaching search and the length of it played a part.
Most likely it was the coaching change. It'd be very easy to get attached to a certain coach, especially if they were recruiting you as hard as I imagine Rodriguez was due to our kicking situation.
January 14th, 2011 at 5:07 PM
#332
One possibility:
He saw progress under RR and is concerned that the progress won't continue over the next 3 or 4 years with a new coach.

Are very high on Michigan. I bet they make him wait until he talks to Brady first.
You know how those chicks on South Beach love kickers!

I continue to eat David Brandon's head
Munch. Who care's we've driven off our best recruits for 2011? We've got a Michigan man endorsed by Lloyd on board now, boy howdy! Let the rubber field pellets fly! Let's have a Michigan Ho down and remember the good 'ol days! (of losing bowl games every year...). Hail Lloyd!!!

"boy howdy" ?
I am not familiar with this saying but am intrigued . . . Can I have the root of origin, please?
January 14th, 2011 at 4:01 PM
#339
from the Urban Dictionary...
Boy Howdy: "An exclamation of enthusiastic agreement which can be used in both a genuine or sarcastic tone. In addition can used to add emphasis to a statement, much like the word _ can. " . I am actually using the sarcastic tone...but also with the emphasis on the "_" us, ouch, I hate impatient retro M fans. They can't really have attended the M and BE that way could they? I support Bradey Hoke but a big _ YOU to the RichRod haters, David Brandon, and esp. the Lloyd (arrived in Pasadena 2007 at 4am to get parking spot, drove from Reno NV, only to sit next to USC frat boys chanting "OVER RATED"... I will always remember you Lloyd but not fondly.

Sarcasm? Really?
If you were using that version you forgot to include

Thanks for clearing that up.

Then again, having nobody show up for your games might take the pressure off of the kicker.

What happened to Connor Loftus?
He was the other California kicker (with terrific grades) who'd just gotten a Michigan offer, and was very high on it, when Goudis switched over, making the timing of Goudis' switch pretty interesting considering they trained together. Is he still out there? I think Loftus was considering Stanford too. Would he feel less warm toward Michigan since this firing/hiring mess? Stanford's lost their head coach too, so I've heard, but probably keeps much of the rest of their staff, system and players. Anyone know anything?
January 14th, 2011 at 4:59 PM

According to Rival's

Kicker Recruiting
I say we offer a carton of cigarettes and go after Nigel "The Leg" Gruff. He probably still has eligibility left, as he was a soccer player before crossing picket lines.

I'm not surprised.
After all, Goudis decommitted from Boise St to commit to Michigan. It's like if you start dating someone that was going out with someone else when you first started seeing her. Are you all that surprised when you find her making out with your best friend in the bathroom during your Halloween party?
I mean, not that it ever happened to me or anything like that... Forget it. I'm outta of here.
