Harbaugh, a maniacal genius or....

Sure. Sure. That 35-14 fake ass whooping we took on national tv against Wisconsin will certainly pay off in future recruiting efforts and in games against OSU, ND, and PSU.

I sure hope so :)

Your friend is not displaying real-life, logical intelligence here. Doctor or not.

I remember my first beer

That "plan" doesn't exactly do much good if U-M enters the OSU game with 2+ more conference losses than OSU.

I can't imagine every U-M coach wants to win EVERY one of the next 7 games.  Because that guarantees a trip to Indianapolis, plus they'll theoretically be back in the MNC hunt.

Stop...just stop. 

I lied to myself with the same reasoning before Wisconsin, then we got the shit kicked out of us.

Your friend is delusional.

Well, that solves it.

MSU, Penn State and ND, etc.should have no problem laying off their ‘A’ games when they play us as part of the Grand Season Secret.

It really is brilliant when you stop to think he had this fantastic and major surprise attack planned even before last year’s game in Columbus.......

Sounds insane.  We'll hide 80% of the playbook and lose 3 or 4 more games just to spring in all on OSU at the end.  Doubtful.

If the past 10 years have taught me anything, it's that they aren't holding back; there is no counter to the crap play you just saw; and there is no long-term strategy.  It's just a bunch of guys, trying their best.

Doesn't matter - when we rope a dope, we can't execute from lack of game experience when we throw the sand bags over the transom. (pardon the metaphor mixation) When our opponents rope a dope they suddenly become world class when they play us. (See OSU 2018 ...)

I thought this was a possibility last year, but no chance it's actually true anymore.

I am kinda curious how he feels about turning the offense completely over to JG. He must be bored silly during the week.

And we were all your friend in recent years past.  Just smile and pat him on the back.

Is Wednesday the Offense UFR day? Because I think I would rather read this shitty post than that.

So Shea's injury and lack of vision downfield are false flag operations?

The doc needs to lay off the maize kool-aid.

What’s even crazier...

Harbaugh has been playing 4d chess with OSU. He’s not sandbagging only this season he’s sandbagging ALL THE SEASONS.

He may throw the game again this year JUST to set up an epic matchup in 2022 in which he finally unleashes 7+ years of stored plays!

Doctors can be delusional. Source: me, a delusional med student who thinks we have a shot against osu

That's what we thought was happening last year.  As it turns out, we had been hiding nothing (other than an offense that doesn't have much in its bag of tricks).

This is the stupidest thing I've read all day....and that's surprising around here with all of the hot takes.

This was probably the literal worst place to hash this out.

I’ll bet he’s actually been saving them up for four and a half YEARS. That’s how much of a maniacal genius he is.

Actually he’s in the final year of a 5 year “rope a dope”.  Man, wait till next year!  The beginning of a dynasty!  It’s gonna be epic!  

Is your friend a horse surgeon?

Don’t think so. You need to concentrate on the game your playing and win it. We barely squeaked by in the last game. You pull out everything to win when playing. We might try a new wrinkle or two when we play OSU but we aren’t holding back 

Doctors used to believe that bloodletting was a viable treatment.

Sorry. No way they’d lose a game while preserving the playbook. They’re more limited by players’ ability to execute the plays than holding out a secret playbook. 

Very few posts really make me mad when reading them...

Last game of the year Brent.  Can't hold anything back...

"It is worth noting that this person is quite intelligent and a medical doctor." 

Actually, it is not.

So does this Doctor have "common Sense"?

This is up there with “jerseys are selling in Ohio” for me...

Wow! This is beyond jumping the Shark! We can't hide shit with the manure we put on the field so far with the offense!

- 95th nationally in Red Zone Efficiency
- ONE run over 18 yards on the season
- 74th in scoring PPG
- Down 35-0 at Wisconsin in year 5 before THEY let off the gas
- 93rd in total offense
- 102nd in rushing offense
- 7 Turnovers and 14 fumbles
- 111th in time of possession
- 78th in number of snaps

Harbaugh's quirky A$$ ways will continue to bleed the fans dry and tire of his act.

Even smart people can be insane, you know?

We have 5 years of hope of saving it for the big games...every play is gonna be some wacky gadget play when we see the Bucks this year.

I've been hearing this line of delusional malarkey from a subset of Michigan fans going back 40 years. "Just wait, Bo is holding something back something special for the Rose Bowl..."

Hasn't ever happened once.

Thoughts? DISCUSS!

Just because your book smart does not mean your street smart.

there is no way that this is what he is doing.  They look terrible and need to turn it around quick so when they do play them they only lose by 17 instead of 35
