Need your feedback about posting from today's scrimmage

Submitted by mgolf4 on
I am going to today's scrimmage in the NEW Big House and was wondering if anyone here would like me to post from the scrimmage. I think a couple other mgoblog users are going too so maybe we could start a thread where they can post as well. If you would like this to happen, please let me know what you would like to hear about and I will do my best to fulfill your desires/needs. If you don't want to see this, that is cool too - less typing on my phone and more watching Michigan football. Just thought this might help all of the guys and gals that have been refreshing the board every 10 minutes in anticipation of September 4th. UPDATE: I think I will go with the mods and send notes to Brian. However, if you want me to email you stuff about your questions don't hesitate to email me at [email protected]

I'm certain there would be huge demand for scrimmage updates. Speaking for myself, I would prefer to see one large post with a considered review of how the team looked and individual player performances rather than a stream of thoughts like "That was a nice pass from Denard/Tate/Devin."

consolidation = GOOD In the past few weeks there have been way too many redundant MGoBoard postings. A reflection of the 'blog's increasing popularity, I guess... An open thread seems most appropriate here.

No way you can "fulfill my desires" unless you bring me back a hot coed. 

Posting from the scrimmage sounds great though!!!  Best for you to post whatever strikes you as noteworthy rather than try to script it based on our interests.  Enjoy your day, and I'm envious that you get to go.

I'll be there too. I will look for your post later and comment on anything I noticed or deemed interesting.

Eh, I'd say pay attention, and just remember what you see. You can post a full roundup (or send it along to Brian) after the scrimmage, and just enjoy yourself while you're there.

I presume that ND, OSU, et. al. will have spies in the big house.

I want to know about linebackers and defensive backs.  Who starts & how they perform.

Can J.T. Floyd run?  Can he keep up with the receivers?

revealing special plays for that reason.  I think the expectation is to have the units run the show in a game-type setting, having to deal with the no coaches on the field, facilities, plays sent in from the sidelines and substitutions and that sort of stuff.

Perhaps whoever posts first should just start an open thread.  That way anyone can post, and double posts aren't quite as big of a deal.  The rest of us can watch patiently as the updates roll in.  Ja?

I want to hear as much about the play of individual players as possible, and general opinions about how things look especially on defense, but do not want to hear anything about formations and schemes--not to be paranoid, but that is something I'm sure they coaches would rather not have out there on the interwebs.

I would imagine they won't have any special plays on display today, but if they do DON'T post them. I'd like to know who is running with the 1s in the back 7(8) and who looks like they are more likely to truck someone between Cox and Toussaint.
