Podcast for Josh Garnett interview

So here is the podcast.  Interview already happened.

http://www.sportsradiokjr.com/cc-common/podcast/single_page.html?podcast...

 

A very educated kid.  Wants to go somewhere where he will be prepared for med school and someplace with lots of sunshine.

 

Hopefully one of two is good.

Interestingly, wants to play left tackle too.

the Bay Area is not "cold,dark, and gloomy,"  when you're coming from the Seattle area.  This should put things in perspective:

 

Seattle:  58 days of sunshine

Detroit:  75

San Francisco:  160

Don't confuse Palo Alto with San Francisco. I said this in the other thread, but SF is cooler and sometimes cloudier because of the its location at the tip of a peninsula. PA is not this way, and it far warmer and sunnier than San Fran. It's not San Diego or Maui, but Stanford has great weather.

Personally, I doubt that Stanford is going to stay at a high level for much longer. Once Luck leaves (likely after this season), they will probably drop off quite a bit. I don't see many Rose Bowl games in Stanford's immediate future.

I've always liked Garnett, but hearing this interview makes me want him in the winged helmet. Kid is mature beyond his years and would be a great representative to the university. 

I don't follow him on Twitter and I didn't know about all the heat he was taking, but it was good to hear Michigan fans were supporting him. That's the type of publicity I want from our fanbase, not that we were bashing a kid. 

Garnett is probably the best player we can add to this class right now.

where I was thinking how great a cool shower was going to feel early in the game, and then by the end of the game, wishing the truck and heat was closer.

Actually, I recall lots of sunshine on that day, as well as storms. Only time I've ever experienced extreme heat warnings and extreme thunderstorm warnings during the same game.

Central San Francisco is frequently murky and damp. But Palo Alto's climate is just about perfect. Dammit.

Need to have Stephan Humphries give that young man a call....let him know how well football and a premed program can go together.

We're gonna play with toughness, we're gonna be responsible and we're gonna play with toughness.  This is Michigan.

I thought Stefan graduated with an EE degree?  Does anyone remember Kolisar (sp?)  He graduated with a 4.0, IIRC, then pissed Bo off by passing on his last year of eligibility to go to law school.

go blue

Looking terribly ill at ease amid the chaos was one Stefan Humphries, a varsity football player and an engineering major, with an interdisciplinary concentration in biology.

If Garnett doesn't want to short change himself in the classroom....

 

Avatar is a reference to this. Go Blue!

Back when I was an undergrad, I had several friends enrolled in the Inteflex combined undergrad/med school program at Michigan. My understanding is the program no longer exists. That would have been perfect for Garnett.

Regarding California and Palo Alto weather, it is gorgeous. The campus is beautiful, and I love the weather. There is a nice bite to the air in the Winter (think a crisp sunny October day in Ann Arbor) but it never gets too hot. The range is pretty narrow, generally between 50 and 80 year round. All things being equal, I'd gladly live in California, at least for school.

Yeah, I believe the only place in MIchigan that has that is MSU's DO school, and that's basically just a guaranteed admission, not a combined program. I'm not even certain that they still do it. That whole deal seems to be going by the wayside.

Denard has spent the offseason working really hard and smiling at people.

I can understand the sunshine statement, although the summers were fantastic out there.  He sounds like a sharp kid.  I have a feeling he's going to choose Michigan.

Go Blue!

AB UM, MA UC-Berkeley. 

So, yeah, Bay Area is better for climate.  Standford campus -- matter of taste; rich but pretty bland.  Berkeley kills it for gorgeous setting, and it may be not as hot in summer.   Much better for frisbee golf.

Anyhow, to a kid from the Northwest, indeed there will be lots of sunshine.  Not to mention that Stanford is an awesome University.  The only downside to the Bay Area?  Congestion, everywhere.  Too many cars, too many people.  And good luck finding affordable housing in Palo Alto. 

Good luck to Garnett & hope he goes Blue despite the message about his preference. 

 

Last week I saw a woman flayed, and you will hardly believe how much it altered her person for the worse.

Webb has been consistently saying that it will be tough to get Garnett away from the west coast, and this podcast confirms that. If we get any further OL commits it'll be Diamond or some other late addition to the OL list. If somehow we did manage to get Garnett, it would be a bigger recruiting coup than getting Dunn would have been, IMHO.
