At this stage, I'm addicted. I admit I need more juice. OTOH, the calmer team may win the game.
November 21st, 2023 at 8:24 AM ^
There is this guy who keeps dropping info. I don't know who he is or what his credibility is, so I haven't posted anything about it yet:
November 20th, 2023 at 9:22 PM ^
I find it unlikely that Acker would tweet something like this without evidence...
Fuck it. Everyone else is tweeting shit about Michigan without evidence, so he might as well.
November 20th, 2023 at 9:29 PM ^
Nuke ohio if you can. Until then I won’t believe anything
November 20th, 2023 at 9:33 PM ^
Yep..exactly. All we have been hearing for a few weeks was just wait til all this dirt we have on them or others and nothing has come out
All talk
November 20th, 2023 at 9:35 PM ^
I am with you, until I see it i am not believing this "ammo" BS
That being said, Fuck Ohio, Go Blue!!!
November 20th, 2023 at 11:18 PM ^
What does this have to do with Acker's comments? He is not claiming to have anything on Ohio State.
November 21st, 2023 at 8:41 AM ^
As you should be able to see, I was responding to someone. The person I responded to mentioned OSU and I agreed with him. Not sure what your issue is here.
November 21st, 2023 at 7:36 AM ^
Last sentence from crum is a way to live. Go Blue!
November 20th, 2023 at 9:59 PM ^
I don't think he has the launch codes, but there has to be a sub Captain with a Michigan degree. Do it for Jim.
November 20th, 2023 at 11:25 PM ^
Agreed. Put up or shut up. Drop the binder if it exists. Why should we abide by an old gentleman’s agreement when nobody else does? Also, I would prefer if we stopped giving OSU credit. I guarantee those mouth-breathers would be proud if their coach hired a PI firm. It’s cost us our Head Coach for our three biggest regular season games and we’ve permanently lost a helluva coach and recruiter with Partridge and I don’t want them to be able to take credit for it.
You know our boys are foaming at the mouth for this game and it’s going to be a 4 quarter beat down. I hope we run up the score, go for two, onside kick, and run a flea flicker when up 40 in the fourth quarter. They want us to be a villain, we can play that role perfectly. We’ll Embarass them with the whole world watching.
November 20th, 2023 at 9:32 PM ^
Isaiah Hole probably already creating a video about how he knows things but can't tell us. He sources have been correct the entire time except for when they went dark and were totally wrong.
November 20th, 2023 at 9:37 PM ^
No shit. If we have the dossier on OSU, release it for fuck's sake. Otherwise, shut the fuck up.
Children's play.
November 20th, 2023 at 9:52 PM ^
Seems like that new TonnorScalions account on X is trying to spill all the dirt on OSU and others. Not sure why the moderators took that thread down? Isaiah Hole says that he knows who runs the account and that the info being tweeted from that account is legit and it is being followed by several legit insiders. Many people think it's Connor Stallions himself.
November 20th, 2023 at 10:11 PM ^
I don't buy any of this, especially with our track record. Believe what you want to make yourself feel good. But, we haven't proven anything and they have...with receipts! And ours? It's full of supposed insiders with invalidated sources. It's fucking disgusting to know that Thamel, Dinich, and Finebaum were in fact right. Fuck off at this point. It's embarrassing. Especially when one of our regents is tweeting this nonsense without providing any evidence. What a shit show.
Take the L and focus on the game.
November 20th, 2023 at 10:15 PM ^
None of those clowns were correct. They simply repeated what was given to them.
Odds are that this account has legitimate information, but until a legitimate reporter contacts this person and is able to verify this information this is just white noise.
November 20th, 2023 at 10:23 PM ^
"Odds are?" That's a great start.
We supposedly had 10yrs worth of shit on OSU and the "odds are" we should be able to provide something incriminating OSU. And none, still waiting.
The odds are this shit is another shit.
November 21st, 2023 at 8:20 AM ^
There are actual legitimate reporters?😉
November 20th, 2023 at 10:59 PM ^
Can everyone downvote GLORY into Bolivia here with me? What a horrible, counterproductive, soy boy, beta take. Go kiss Finebaum's ass somewhere else, like in Bolivia.
November 20th, 2023 at 11:06 PM ^
Ha, really meaningful coming from you, sir. You must need a friend. I got you.
I can take downvotes, no problem. Probably deserving most times as I can be a complete asshole. But, I'm here to express my opinions, perhaps not popular ones and not a problem taking some criticisms along the way. Love this platform.
November 21st, 2023 at 5:43 AM ^
Can you really talk when you call someone a beta?
November 21st, 2023 at 8:29 AM ^
You can take the L as the true self-identified LOSER as demonstrated in your post.
Go back to 11 Warriors or whatever Buckeye hole you crawled out of and spend your time filling coolers with s$@! as befits you.
Have fun in Bolivia! Say hi to Butch Cassidy & The Sundance Kid…😆
November 20th, 2023 at 10:31 PM ^
I think the mods are being cautious for now, but there are some notable people following that "Stal Bombs" account.
November 20th, 2023 at 11:04 PM ^
Many people think it's Connor Stallions himself.
Well if that's the case, it's definitely not legit lmao.
Enough insiders have rapidly followed the account to make me suspect it's at least semi-legit. But none of the counterintelligence matters unless you can prove it.
November 21st, 2023 at 6:10 AM ^
That's a troll account. He has recently joined several Buckeye boards and is bragging about it although he claims to be a UM fan.
November 21st, 2023 at 11:02 AM ^
This comment of this person showing up on ohio boards has zero credibility since Isaiah Hole says he knows the person who runs that account, he says the information being posted is credible, and Hole is a friend of MGoBlog staff. So by your saying this is a troll account, you are basically saying, Isaiah Hole is a liar.
You should link references. Otherwise you have no credibility.
Rather than Isaiah Hole being a complete liar (which wouldn’t add up), if you do have references It’s more likely that those ohio board posts are the actual troll to undermine whoever this person is on X.
I do admit that based on the name of the X account and the way he posts stuff, he is definitely not helping his credibility either
November 21st, 2023 at 6:48 AM ^
That account seems pretty uncredible. I guess they're tweeting out info that should be able to be proved or disproved...but calling it Stal Bombs and tweeting kissing emojis at people doesn't exactly scream legitimacy
November 21st, 2023 at 6:59 AM ^
Seth removed it, I think, the earlier thread, but I would think we want to err on the side of caution on these things for the time being. After all, my own Twitter has appeared on this site once, which is evidence that some people will post any old shit to the board.
November 20th, 2023 at 9:33 PM ^
I Nuked Ryan Day's mom 2 years ago, been crying ever since. Weird coincidence I know.
November 20th, 2023 at 9:35 PM ^
Username checks
November 20th, 2023 at 9:48 PM ^
Any fan at the game that asks me where Jim is at my response will be, “Watching Ryan Day’s wife on Only Fans.”
November 21st, 2023 at 5:20 AM ^
Or just say "Jimmy's coaching from home, but Day is still stuck on third base🤣
November 20th, 2023 at 10:18 PM ^
Get tested. Their family tree is one branch
November 20th, 2023 at 9:52 PM ^
The sad part is the commish seems so stupid that he believed it all.
November 20th, 2023 at 9:54 PM ^
What is truly extraordinary is that we are a month into this saga and there still is no publicly released evidence about who financed and implemented this private investigation. Given the constant leaks in every other aspect of this story... I just don't understand. What is going on?!
November 20th, 2023 at 10:00 PM ^
There must be a lot of hush money involved with the firm, perhaps even a Christmas bonus.
November 20th, 2023 at 10:04 PM ^
Exactly. The media so desperate for one story but seemingly so uninterested in the other. How lame.
November 20th, 2023 at 10:09 PM ^
The problem is the PI/media firm who found and leaked all this did so to espn or other outlets. Then the ncaa gets wind and investigates the issue. They don’t care where the information comes from, and unfortunately, probably never will.
So whose gonna investigate where all this information came from? Surely not the NCAA, probably not the big ten cuz they are apparent fucks. And so Michigan has to figure it all out on their own, which probably isn’t gonna happen unless there was something really illegal, I.e. hacking. But Stalions was so dumb it wouldn’t take a great PI to find out that’s their sign stealing guy, and find out he had bought all of these tickets to other games, which is the true “crime”.
November 20th, 2023 at 10:14 PM ^
And I’ll add that whoever (*cough Ryan Day *cough) did it right, they didn’t go straight to the NCAA about what Stalions was doing. They leaked it to media to create the uprising about it. If the Pi/media firms went straight to NCAA, likely not much would have been said or done.
November 20th, 2023 at 10:25 PM ^
If there is evidence that OSU is connected to the private investigation, I think this would be a story as juicy as Connor Stalions-gate because it would potentially destabilize the future of the Big Ten. You can already see how angry the regents are by the tweet from Jordan Acker as well as Sarah Hubbard. So this is why I'm confused the media haven't been able to figure it out.
November 20th, 2023 at 10:33 PM ^
Oh I’m with ya. I do not think there is a chance in hell that OSU did not do this, whether it be Ryan day, the school itself, a booster or someone. Im just saying they did, for them, an excellent job of making sure there was enough of an uproar about the “cheating” aspect of it and therefore, how they got their information doesn’t matter.
November 20th, 2023 at 11:25 PM ^
The main problem Michigan has is that the media, particularly ESPN, don't care about others doing the same thing that Stallions did. Since it's Michigan, who seems to be hated by everybody, and involves Harbaugh, the media milked it for everything it was worth and then some. If some journalists report on OSU or some other school pulling shady shit on Michigan, how will it get any traction if ESPN and others refuse to make a big deal about it? I feel like it would have to be extraordinary dirt for it to take the spotlight off of Michigan.
November 21st, 2023 at 12:30 AM ^
I'm glad to see regents upset about it. I hope this pushes the school to become more aggressive with the conference in all aspects. I want a tiny little rule break at any school, I want Michigan to push for the death penalty immediately.
November 20th, 2023 at 11:53 PM ^
I'd propose two reasons:
(1) The journalists already involved in the story have no interest in following up a line of investigation that, if successful, would threaten the narrative they've carefully crafted. (See Thamel's response to the Purdue sign evidence.)
(2) Journalists not yet personally attached to the narrative might find it a hard line of investigation to pursue because the PI firm didn't actually do the investigating. They were hired as a conduit, because if the snoop had dropped the information directly it would have raised eyebrows even at the NCAA. The drops had to be made by somebody they were used to dealing with.
And the timeline won't match up. I'm guessing the snooping had been going on for a long time (more than two years?) before anyone was formally hired.
And trying to figure out who hired the actual investigator is probably a dead end. Nobody had to hire him. The only possible trail there is if he left fingerprints at the scene.
(No, I don't claim any inside information. I'm just following up on public information using the assumption that if a series of coincidences beggars belief it's because they aren't coincidental.)
November 20th, 2023 at 9:56 PM ^
If there is real evidence of this, UM should have it leaked this week. It would be glorious to watch, and the spotlight on Day's weakness would be richly deserved. However, there is so much talk and no real info drop, you wonder what evidence our side actually has.
Will time actually tell? Time will tell.
November 20th, 2023 at 10:16 PM ^
It will be released Friday afternoon so the media can talk about it leading up to The Game. Day will be implicated and will glitch on the sideline, leading his team to a glorious beat down by the good guys.
November 20th, 2023 at 10:23 PM ^
I hope you are speaking this into existence.
November 20th, 2023 at 10:50 PM ^
Speaking of which, rumblings can be heard about this person/firm, who may or may not be of interest. I apologize a little, since this is just a name that got dropped on twitter today, not by any regent. Info via linkedin:
