We waited and waited and waited. But now it's the wedding night and everything is finally official.
You can take me now, Jim.
December 24th, 2014 at 11:33 AM ^
Interesting wording, today is my wedding anniversary. I think it's a sign, it must be happening!!!!

As long as the source isn't Herbie, I'm ok with it.

Heard this song before. Need something more than a rumor with no link and no name...
December 24th, 2014 at 11:28 AM ^
link or it doesn't exist
December 24th, 2014 at 11:31 AM ^
Those who know what the Edge of the Internet is can verify, but as I stated above I'm not going to link it because of the fall out from the last time the site was linked.
December 24th, 2014 at 11:30 AM ^
If we keep this up we can get a searchbits today!
December 24th, 2014 at 12:08 PM ^
all problems and worries ...now it's beginning to feel as if mgoblog is being taken over by The Darkseid in the past 24 hours.
December 24th, 2014 at 11:30 AM ^
It really has to leak out somehow in this age of no secrets. Someone in this small city has to blab it to someone else.................on a confidential basis of course.
It is the hot topic at every holiday party in Ann Arbor.
Go Blue!
December 24th, 2014 at 11:33 AM ^
Just curious what edge of the internet you got the rumor from. All rumors that are positive are GOOD ROMORS! I tend to completely ignore the edge of the internet that contains anything negative.
I accept your rumor!
Go Blue!
December 24th, 2014 at 11:44 AM ^
Western edge.

he is on campus, I won't believe a thing.
December 24th, 2014 at 11:32 AM ^
Don't believe it. I'll wait for confirmation from legit sources.

I agree, you would think someone on Twitter would have hinted at this.
December 24th, 2014 at 11:39 AM ^
If a contact is signed enough people will know that it will be leaked. We'll have to wait and see I suppose.

Board5 is legit. Some of those people are actually in the meetings.
December 24th, 2014 at 11:41 AM ^
Yet they post anonymously on the edge of the internet? Legit reporters put their name and reputation out there when breaking stuff.

You think Hackett's letting media into his top secret meetings?
December 24th, 2014 at 11:51 AM ^
Exactly. Which is why if they were legit, they would get it to a legit reporter who can vet, confirm, and then put their name behind it. When it comes to something like this I just don't put stock in anonymous internet reports who have no culpability to what they say.

I get the accountability angle completely. However some of the posters are seriously plugged in at the top. No worries though we will all be happy next week.
December 24th, 2014 at 11:59 AM ^
Yeah, I mean if it turns out they're correct, than it's all good. I'm just waiting until I hear from a source that has a name to protect and that I trust.
December 24th, 2014 at 12:03 PM ^
I think that's only true if the source wants it to leak officially. They may just want to tell a few people but explicitly want the broader media kept in the dark. Of course that makes the leaked information inherently less reliable, which is why sources without a significant track record should not be trusted.
At least one of these sources has been around long enough to have a legit track record. It's why I'm giving this more credence than the average internet rumor.
December 24th, 2014 at 12:07 PM ^
I guess that's just the rub for me. If they don't want it known by a wide audience, then why put anything on the internet? Just tell your spouse or something. But instead they decide to tell other random people they don't know on an obscure message board so the info can be passed from board to board without any 'official' confirmation? I guess that kind of motivation just doesn't make a lot of sense to me.
December 24th, 2014 at 12:16 PM ^
I understand where you're coming from, but keep in mind that The Victors/Board 5 has been around in some incarnation for well over a decade, and some of the guys there know each other in real life too. So I can at least see why someone could see posting on the board as just sharing with friends.
December 24th, 2014 at 12:47 PM ^
I think you're missing the point. If they were to blab to a reporter, they'd suffer the consequences. U-M doesn't want them leaking everything out.
The Victors/Board 5 community goes back to the mid-1990s. It's a small, tight-knit group that shares info they know. It's not intended to be a mass-viewing website. When lots of outsiders discovered them, they cut down on regular board posts and started restricting their info to chat sessions.
Incidentally, that community is where Brian started posting on the internet - and he still does post there (under the handle "funkymoses") to this day. It's odd that people here are convinced it's a fraud when the guy who runs this site is part of their group.
December 24th, 2014 at 11:52 AM ^
Who said reporters?
December 24th, 2014 at 11:34 AM ^
im imagining a scenario where its game 1 before kick off and the camera is frantically panning to see if Jim Harbaugh is on Michigan's sideline and our coach. The closer (or farther?) we get the worse this is getting.
I am loving every second of this.

Pretty sure it's a Beastie Boys reference (or possibly the comic sampled by the Beastie Boys).
