Big Michigan Football Surprise?
@M_Ferns10 Big surprise gonna be released tomorrow for all current and future#Michigan commits.
M commit Michael Ferns.
HELLO post to come? I'm excited so I am fully buckled. However, I could see a new uniform.
[Ed-Ace: I'm told it's not a commitment. Still good news, though.]
February 14th, 2013 at 12:35 PM ^
Freeeeeee Piiiiiizzzaaaaaaa!
February 14th, 2013 at 2:31 PM ^
in April of 2011 that caused you to start using all caps?
February 14th, 2013 at 3:59 PM ^
I'm pretty sure it's related to the reason I started posting snarky comments back in December 2011.
February 14th, 2013 at 12:36 PM ^
Ok then, lets hear them out...
February 14th, 2013 at 12:36 PM ^
Is Snoop Lion coming to kick it?
Urban with bite wounds from emulating his favorite coach?
They are already retiring Denards jersey?
February 14th, 2013 at 12:42 PM ^
Perhaps I was mistaken.
February 14th, 2013 at 12:42 PM ^
Hmm, I'm really curious what this could be. If it was uniform-related, I don't think Steve would say it was really "sweet", unless we were breaking our contract with Adidas and switching back to Nike... realistically though, maybe they're going to announce an update to Schembechler Hall? I suppose that would have an effect on recruiting. I really have no idea.
February 14th, 2013 at 12:51 PM ^
They already are updating Schembechler Hall.

All that's left is "free Curly Fries," right?
- Pretty sweet;
- Big surprise;
- All #FutureMichiganRecruits will like it;
- Huge deal, for fans who like huge deals;
- Adds to rivals' loathing of Hoke/overeating/Fred Flinstsone meme;
- Helps to monetize the #UniversityOfMichigan brand platform;
- Could lead to "Curly Fry" commemorative uniforms featuring helmet stripes that curl in a fried potato-like corkscrew pattern;
- Will inspire Eminem and Beyonce' to create a "Curly Fries" anthem for broadcast over Michigan Stadium sound system;
- Denard Robinson will become new spokesman for Arby's, with an "Eating Curly Fries motion" that will reward him with millions in royalties, such that he will be able to endow a new football scholarship for the Univiersity to be awarded in conjucntion with the #16 jersey. The #16 jersey will go each year to a freshman defensive back.
February 14th, 2013 at 1:56 PM ^
nah the #16 jersey will be given to the most athletically gifted player who is playing out of position.
February 14th, 2013 at 12:39 PM ^
February 14th, 2013 at 12:36 PM ^
February 14th, 2013 at 12:39 PM ^
Maybe multi-year schollies for current and future commits?
February 14th, 2013 at 12:46 PM ^
Pretty sure the Big Ten is already doing that...
February 14th, 2013 at 1:13 PM ^
Then I have no idea.
February 14th, 2013 at 12:50 PM ^
Didn't the B1G already do this last year? I seem to recall all the B1G school agreeing that all scholorships (starting with 2012 I think) were 4 year scholorships.
February 14th, 2013 at 12:40 PM ^
Please be more t shirt Gatling guns, please be more t shirt Gatling guns...
February 14th, 2013 at 12:40 PM ^
February 14th, 2013 at 12:48 PM ^
Please no. A regulation sized field for all of our games is all I ask.
February 14th, 2013 at 1:57 PM ^
The games will be played once renovations are made to Wrigley Field that will allow an entire football field to fit so it won't be another one-way game.
February 14th, 2013 at 12:42 PM ^
I lke how pessiMICHtic always upvotes his own threads.
February 14th, 2013 at 12:45 PM ^
I may be the only one, but I couldn't care less if someone upvotes themselves.
February 14th, 2013 at 12:50 PM ^
Well you're obviously not the only one, but there may only be two of you.
February 14th, 2013 at 12:45 PM ^
MGoBoard is a tough environment need all the help I can get. Haters gonna hate
February 14th, 2013 at 12:48 PM ^
For the longest time I thought your avatar was a weird looking cat wearing a funky hat.
February 14th, 2013 at 12:52 PM ^
Dip stanley cup.
February 14th, 2013 at 12:52 PM ^
I just realized it wasn't!! Wow
February 14th, 2013 at 12:55 PM ^
How does it look like a cat?? I'm not seeing it at all.
February 14th, 2013 at 1:07 PM ^
Is it baseball season yet? I think we're all going crazy from this long winter....
February 14th, 2013 at 1:09 PM ^
LOOK at that HORSE! Those big teeth, that bushy tail...
Also, I agree with you. These guys must have the same dealer. There is in no way, shape, or form, anything catlike about that avatar.
February 14th, 2013 at 2:22 PM ^
That ain't a horse, it's John Elway!
February 14th, 2013 at 1:04 PM ^
I finally realized what it really was last week when he was getting beat up pretty bad on the board and I had to open his commments to see them. I guess it made me pay attention more or something.
February 14th, 2013 at 1:14 PM ^
I was getting beat up? I am assuming the couple snarky angry Mich BBall comments?
February 14th, 2013 at 2:29 PM ^
I wouldn't care if he could upvote himself 10 quintillion times. The points mean nothing anymore.
February 14th, 2013 at 12:43 PM ^
February 14th, 2013 at 12:55 PM ^
...You were saying something?
February 14th, 2013 at 2:12 PM ^
Can we get a moderation choice called "douchtastic" for posts like this?
February 14th, 2013 at 12:44 PM ^
My guess is either the President or Kate Upton will be at the ND game. Not sure which holds more value for the program though, the most powerful man on the planet or the SI swimsuit issue covergirl.
February 14th, 2013 at 12:44 PM ^
Gardner's Redshirt. Book it.
February 14th, 2013 at 12:47 PM ^
Oooh, this could make sense! Oh glorious God please make this the announcement in question.
February 14th, 2013 at 1:22 PM ^
I was pretty confident about that one... but then again, I'm not sure how big a deal that would be to "future recruits." Hmmmm.
February 14th, 2013 at 1:49 PM ^
Future recruits could be guys in the '14 recruiting class (such as Ferns). If the redshirt is granted, Devin will still around when the class of '14 is on campus. Having a returning starter at QB in the '14 season could be a big deal to those guys.
February 14th, 2013 at 12:44 PM ^
February 14th, 2013 at 12:44 PM ^
Maybe a new facility or something?
February 14th, 2013 at 12:45 PM ^
February 14th, 2013 at 1:13 PM ^
Now THAT would be great news... in my mind I associate Adidas with this ten year hiccup in our great tradition.
February 14th, 2013 at 1:18 PM ^
February 14th, 2013 at 5:14 PM ^
the contract with adidas runs through 2015, so unless they are mutually breaking the contract, i doubt it.
February 14th, 2013 at 12:46 PM ^
Everybody gets to wear a #16 Legends patch.
