I want my 15 minutes back after reading that thread on the Freep page. Jeeze, there was no substance

Ditto on that. It's funny, but the guys here on MGoBlog and over at GoBlueWolverine have much more in-depth knowledge than Snyder does, yet Snyder supposedly covers the team regularly. What I noticed, however, is 1. He doesn't really know what kind of a guy RR is; 2. He has not been to practice much; 3. He really does not know how any of the freshmen are doing outside the hype of DR. This tells me that even though he puts out a bunch of U-M articles he doesn't know many specifics about U-M at all. Most of his postings are just fluff pieces anyway, no real analysis. Usually very short. Kinda like his knowledge.

He did say that the team looked fast. That's good journalism.
