Nico Collins appreciation thread

It's a Team. They're all soft. Coaches included.

Kinda feels like Harbaugh lost his mojo during that 2016 OSU game. He's been pretty subdued since then, and our record is 20-11.

One flag for a tossed clipboard and the flame goes out. That's a candle in the wind to begin with.

The “elite” WR (Nico, DPJ, Tarik) are part of the overall problem. Why don’t we figure out why they are not getting open and fix it. As a team, they have a lot of work to do, and the WR are not above it all.

I think being "soft" is entirely on the coaching staff. "Soft" describes what a team looks like being unprepared and going through the motions, which is how Michigan looked today. It's doubtful all these players got to where they are by being just...soft...in general...like, what do you even mean? Seems like you're just being petty because you didn't get your way today. I'm so sick of the "soft" take.

I'd describe it more as a lack of urgency and energy that you see elite teams play with. We play like we just took a Benadryl with a shot of henny

You're going to hate this, as will almost everybody on this board.
But technically speaking, the loss to Wisconsin is nearly completely irrelevant.
You get to the Conf. Champ. game, by winning the division, then the CFP by winning the Conf. Champ.
As long as you beat everyone in your Division, you can get to the next step.
Not that it currently "looks" like we WILL do that. But we technically CAN do that.
It's a very Professional-Sports way of thinking, I know, but that is what College Football is becoming.

Favorite player on this team. Absolute beast.
September 21st, 2019 at 6:34 PM ^
I appreciate you, Nico. You and McKeon, who had zero targets today. Did he play? He's our second best target imho.
September 21st, 2019 at 6:35 PM ^
Are you kidding? Did you miss the play in the endzone where he messed up his knee?
September 21st, 2019 at 6:36 PM ^
Did he play!? Did you watch?
September 21st, 2019 at 6:38 PM ^
Honestly? Not the second half. I watched every second of The Game last year, and the bowl loss. Halftime was all I had in me today. I'm just not into S&M.
September 21st, 2019 at 6:43 PM ^
Well just to inform you... he caught a TD and is likely out for a while after hyperextending his knee and being helped off field by two trainers.
September 21st, 2019 at 6:58 PM ^
Ok but why go online and say he had zero targets when you watched half of a game?
September 22nd, 2019 at 10:08 PM ^
Because 3 different box scores didn't list him.
September 21st, 2019 at 7:41 PM ^
Name checks out. ?
September 21st, 2019 at 6:42 PM ^
He just has to hang in there for 9 or 10 more games then he can bolt for the draft.
September 21st, 2019 at 6:42 PM ^
They may be soft, but you're probably waaaaaaaay softer.
September 21st, 2019 at 6:42 PM ^
Thanks Nico.
Know you are transferring and I don't blame you. Good luck at Army or Navy. They will throw it to you maybe 5-7 times/game.
September 21st, 2019 at 6:48 PM ^
Do you really know he's transferring?
September 21st, 2019 at 6:56 PM ^
Y the fuk wouldn't he? It's probably a $10 mil hit if he doesn't.
September 21st, 2019 at 6:43 PM ^
Nico gonna play Sunday's. Throw the ball to Nico over and over again.
September 21st, 2019 at 6:44 PM ^
The kid could have gone to Alabama and been in the championship every year. Instead he bought what JH was selling. I feel bad for the young man. He and Bell are the two dudes who would rather die than lose.
September 21st, 2019 at 6:45 PM ^
Someone might want to introduce him to Shea, let Patterson know the kid can catch the ball.
September 21st, 2019 at 7:45 PM ^
He is BEAVER worthy.
BEAVER strong.
A winner. Plays a man's game like a man.
September 21st, 2019 at 10:58 PM ^
Tom, is that you?
September 21st, 2019 at 9:32 PM ^
I enjoy when they throw it to the big tall fast guys who are single covered
September 21st, 2019 at 10:57 PM ^
Nicole, you're the best homie.
