I am rooting for the young man. Let bygones be bygones.

Harbaugh says fuck that!
August 10th, 2019 at 8:36 PM ^
If there are seven billion people not in UMs roster, I bet Harbs pays them each the same consideration... none
August 10th, 2019 at 8:40 PM ^
Well he did make the comment recently about tarnished legacies from skipping the bowl game so I'm not so sure about that.
For the record, I agree with him 100%.
August 10th, 2019 at 9:17 PM ^
Tarnished legacy is not the same as seeing someone not succeed. Two different things. I bet you Harbaugh wants him to succeed . He wants him to compete and succeed in everything including the bowl game and NFL.
August 10th, 2019 at 9:28 PM ^
Another dumb post. At least you are consistent.
August 10th, 2019 at 10:01 PM ^
I thought you didn't give a FUCK about me?
August 10th, 2019 at 10:45 PM ^
He is just salty that everyone slobs over his every word as an "insider"
August 10th, 2019 at 11:42 PM ^
LOL, I caught the same two fish with one lure....here fishy fishy////:) Too easy.
August 10th, 2019 at 11:55 PM ^
It's accurate, but it's much easier to call something dumb than to accept you feel conflicted.
August 10th, 2019 at 6:45 PM ^
Higdon is a player
On a team
Sometimes he has stats

I can't wait for more MGoHaiku this year.

Urban anus face
Urban Meyer anus face
Urban anus face
(I write this every year. Might have to change things up this season)
August 10th, 2019 at 8:04 PM ^
Don't change things up
Urban is and has an anus face
Even if he's no longer the coach at osu
August 10th, 2019 at 11:48 PM ^
Did he used to coach football? You do mean the same Professor of Ethics Urban Meyer, at Ohio State’s B-school, don’t you?
August 10th, 2019 at 7:21 PM ^
Not bad, but not great for someone looking for a roster spot. Still, best of luck to him.
August 10th, 2019 at 10:46 PM ^
Don’t know what you’re getting at, he did better than 3.6 YPC.
August 10th, 2019 at 7:24 PM ^
Good for him. Hopefully he can land on a roster; he's got some potential as a backup RB.
Anyone who still holds a grudge against him is insanely petty.
August 10th, 2019 at 7:29 PM ^
As my grandma used to say,
"Don't sweat the petty. Just pet the sweaty."
August 11th, 2019 at 6:34 PM ^
I've been trying to figure out what that saying means for about 20 minutes and I still have no idea.
August 10th, 2019 at 8:26 PM ^
Not mad, but it's kind of looking like he made the wrong decision to skip the bowl game and play in the Sr Bowl. He barely played in the Sr Bowl and went undrafted. Had he had a good game vs Florida and not played in the Sr Bowl, he might have been drafted.
August 10th, 2019 at 8:48 PM ^
I hate this narrative, because you never know what could have happened. He could have also broken a leg or torn an ACL and never played a down in the NFL ever. I don't think him playing against Florida or in the senior bowl has any bearing on him being drafted or not because he had an entire season of being the unquestioned starter on tape to show to teams. You may not be mad, but implying that his current position may be better because of a single decision shows some kind of position on this matter.
Ultimately, Higdon has landed with a team that needs a backup RB big time. He's in a great position and has all the opportunity to show that he's legit and can stick in the NFL.
August 10th, 2019 at 9:04 PM ^
Can we use the salve they put on players in the Senōr bowl that keeps them from getting broken legs? That would help getting more players in our bowl games.
Somewhere this season there will be a possible future NFL player playing on a 0-5 Rutger or Kansas or Vanderbilt. They will still be playing in meaningful games but our bowl will be meaningless.
August 10th, 2019 at 9:43 PM ^
"He had an entire season of being the unquestioned starter on tape to show to teams"
Further reason to skip the Sr Bowl...
August 10th, 2019 at 9:07 PM ^
He made the right call. The coaches owe him more than he owed the coaches.
August 10th, 2019 at 7:34 PM ^
Always will root for a senior from M.
August 10th, 2019 at 8:54 PM ^
Heard Mo Hurst's name for the first time in the Raiders/Rams game, with appropriate approving commentary (radio). Co-tackle for loss on a 1st down.
August 10th, 2019 at 9:14 PM ^
These pop up ads are getting retarded !
August 10th, 2019 at 9:15 PM ^
A back with his level of athleticism just needs way better vision. He always left way too many yards on the field. Hopefully, he can find a place in the league.
August 10th, 2019 at 10:28 PM ^
I want to see the kid succeed. I’m still bummed about his decisions late last year but the fun and memories he provided us, when we were there in The Big House, start to outweigh those decisions.
Can’t forget that big run early in the Nebraska game last fall. We cheered and cheered, jumping up and down fist pumping, “Hail, Hail” with the M band afterwards. Good times.
Hoping you fare well Higdon.
August 11th, 2019 at 12:46 AM ^
That's fare.
August 11th, 2019 at 7:58 AM ^
Fair enough. 8~)
August 11th, 2019 at 1:35 AM ^
Pretty good stats. He will probably make somebody's roster. He is like a less talented version of Frank Gore and Emmitt Smith, but certainly NFL caliber.
August 11th, 2019 at 1:43 AM ^
Emmitt Smith to me was a lot like a fast fullback. He just happened to be a fullback that got 4 free yards every carry.
August 11th, 2019 at 7:05 AM ^
Sounds about right.
August 11th, 2019 at 9:26 AM ^
Less talented Gore- maybe but Emmitt Smith's strength was seeing holes and using his blocks which arguably is Higdon's weakness.
August 11th, 2019 at 7:09 AM ^
If there’s anyone who deserves it it’s Higdon. Guy stayed his senior year to get his degree and a thousand yards to make a better life for his little girl, rock on!
August 11th, 2019 at 9:49 AM ^
I checked out the Texans subreddit and it appears he was getting a fair amount of hype from people. Looks like he’s in a pretty good position to make the roster as their 3rd RB behind Miller and Johnson
August 16th, 2019 at 2:10 AM ^
I hope Michigan gets a big time running back soon that gets taken in the 1st round. Maybe Charbonnet?
