Hoke on "The Herd" today during the 12 to 1 hour
January 4th, 2012 at 11:19 AM ^
12:15pm on the dot.

Nice. Thanks for the heads up.
January 4th, 2012 at 12:02 PM ^
Good looking out.
January 4th, 2012 at 12:05 PM ^
Saying that Michigan has very little NFL talent. I LOATHE Colin Cowherd.
January 4th, 2012 at 12:10 PM ^
That is the truth though. Right now we do not have a lot of 1st rounders on this team. That will change. This class coming in has huge NFL potential.
January 4th, 2012 at 12:12 PM ^
ummm he's kind of right...
January 4th, 2012 at 12:32 PM ^
He's right. How many of our current players look like surefire NFL guys? Do you think anyone will go on to be a Hall of Famer like Brady, Woodson and Hutchinson will?
We are not as talented as a typical Michigan team. Our guys have great heart and perseverence, but in terms of raw talent, they're not that remarkable.
January 4th, 2012 at 1:42 PM ^
Did you really think Brady looked like a future HOFer during his time at Michigan? I don't think anything is surefire in the draft. I took the gist of Coherd's comment as an illustration of how Hoke did more with less this season and Judge Alex did less with more. Did I just defend Cowherd? I need a shower.

Arkansas fans told me they thought so after the Orange Bowl game. So, yes. He was amazing in the pocket as a Wolverine and still is. Can't teach that.
January 4th, 2012 at 3:14 PM ^
While you have a point, you are basing your argument on the opinion of Arkansas fans. ARKANSAS FANS like this guy
Sorry, I had to take the chance to rip on Jones and "America's Team". Barf.
January 4th, 2012 at 3:16 PM ^
In retrospect, it was actually a big Alabama fine. And, yes, your point is taken all the same, and maybe moreso!

Unfortunately (and almost exclusively because of Rodriguez' recruiting) Colin was right if he said that. Mike Martin will play in the nfl. Hemmingway will play in the nfl. Vanbergen will play in the nfl. Molk might. None will be the caliber we are used to seeing (likely). More importantly, all of them were Carr recruits who stuck around.
You tell me who from Rodriguez' recruits is going to be nfl talent. Unfortunately, many of them are simply too small to play a major factor in the nfl. Odoms is too small. Lewan -- maybe, maybe not, again due to size. Kenny Demens has a shot. Jibreel Black has a shot. Obviously Denard at another position, and perhaps Fitz. Maybe Stonum, if he get himself back on track. If I recall, 1/2 of them were actaully Lloyd's iitial recruits, who stayed afer Rodriguez was hired.
There are some young kids, who will be drafted higher, depending on how they perform. Blake Countess. Frank Clark. The incoming lineman who haven't played all have potential.
January 4th, 2012 at 3:19 PM ^
While I agree with 99% of your comment, I thought there was "future 1st rounder" clout around Lewan?
I also don't think size is the issue...he's listed at 6-8 302. And I'm sure he could easily add more weight. I know RichRod preferred his linemen to be lean and good athletes instead of human beings with their own gravitational pull. In fact, I wouldn't be surprised if he added to his frame this offseason.
January 4th, 2012 at 6:53 PM ^
Koger possibly?
January 4th, 2012 at 12:05 PM ^
cowheard just told buckeye fans get over it. Urban isn't winning 11 games with Hoke around and he ain't going anywhere. oh and buckeye fans yu had more talent and lost,Hoke is bring in top talent so watch out. lol
January 4th, 2012 at 3:31 PM ^
Say what you will about the media...but their fondness for Hoke and the recent (albeit, quieter) portrayal of Urban and his dedication certainly can't hurt us when it comes to image and recruiting.
That being said, I suppose the likes of Saban, Petrino, Dantonio, and Kiffin haven't been media darlings, either...and it hasn't really hurt them.
January 4th, 2012 at 12:20 PM ^
For me at least. I Haz a Sad... :(
January 4th, 2012 at 12:21 PM ^
Asshat, as always
January 4th, 2012 at 12:21 PM ^
The guy says, Michigan has no NFL talent. This was the worst/best Michigan team ever 5 seconds before intro'ing Brady. He's so classless.
January 4th, 2012 at 1:40 PM ^
He also said college football is better when Michigan is really good. Overall, he really gave Michigan a big boost on the show.
January 4th, 2012 at 12:41 PM ^
Martin, Molk, VanBergen, Koger, Hemingway all should get drafted, not early, Molk I suppose could, but the other guys will great drafted. I feel whoever gets Hemingway will get a steal in the draft, wouldn't mind the Lions taking him in the 5th round to replace Burleson.

Anyone have audio of this? I missed it.
