Poole1Dan Jr.

This idiot named firedickfraudriguez keeps sending me and a bunch of other michigan fans via youtube messages about RR and how he's ruining everything. He sounds just like Poole1Dan! Please go to his videos and slap the truth in his face with me. firedickfraudriguez: This man has ruined michigan football. He has driven away blue-chips to transfer, 8-16 in his two years, NCAA violations, we finished last in the big ten this year, we have won three big ten games, and many, many other things. I do know you and many think he needs more time but.........How will keeping him here help Michigan? me: do you realize that our offense was best in the big ten this year? seriously, with a freshman qb that was hurt most of the year and mediocre offensive lineman and receivers, our offense was first in the big ten. do you know what our offense is gonna do when we finally get all the recruits we need??? they're going to be unstoppable! plus, it's not rich rod's fault that lloyd recruited half assed his last few years and didn't bother to bring in any defensive talent. now rich has to take even more time to fix what lloyd left. plus, even if we did fire rich rodriguez (which we shouldn't, he's a good coach who cares about the players) it would just make things worse. it would mean we would have to go through another transition and no good coach would want to come here because they would see how little time we gave rodriguez and we would end up like notre dame. patience, it's a virtue! then i got another response today firedickfraudriguez: western, Eastern, DSU, Indy and ND have terrible defenses. That is why our stats are so great. A good coach tries to do with what he has and tries to adjust to his team, you have 2 pocket passers and some solid running backs but no Rich rod is so damn stubborn. We lost so many players because Rich Rod came such as Ryan Mallett, Arrinngton, Manningham and Boren. He doesn't understand big ten football. Second our D from 2008 had 8 starters back and Rich is recruitng all of these little defenders which will not work. Our D is getting worse, in the big ten you need a D you can't have only an offfense. Don't give me this shit abt how our D played against OSU, it was a fluke and OSU played terrible. Hopefully I am proven completely wrong and I hope that devin Gardner starts because I hate Forcier, he just isn't a Michigan Man he doesn't play for the Team, The Team , The Team. He threw away OSU because he so arrogant and tries to do too much because he wants ESPN to suck his cock. Also RIch Rod doesn't give Shoelace enough time to improve. Even a brain stem knows when Shoelace comes into the game he will run. He needs to improve as a passer and Rich isn't allowing that to happen.

"Even a brain stem knows..." I don't get it, are we implying brain stems are stupid? Maybe he just gets a bad rep because of his buddy the brain being so close, just can't compete in brain power with the brain. Regardless, this guy's an idiot, I wouldn't really worry too much about convincing him. Let's hope the team can finally do that next year, because that's the only true way to prove anything.

The brain stem is responsible for extremely basic functions such as your heartbeat, breathing, and sleep schedule. It does not possess any higher cognitive functions. Still sort of a dumb comparison. Also of note is that the brain stem includes the medulla oblongata, which is not why alligators are so ornery.

No, everybody knows that alligators are ornery because they have too many teeth to brush, and have no toothbrush. He points it out like the brain stem is notorious for being stupid, analogies lose their zing when you select just any non-related thing. But, for the record, I'm aware that you're brain stem doesn't do much thinking for you.

No shit, I only hear about people like this when people here complain about them. Debate and argument is the feedstock of the troll. I am guessing the OP gets messages from the troll because he/she feeds the trolls - and now is suggesting others do the same!?? Don't do it!!!

Please note the diary from earlier this week on knowing your anti-RR factions. The guy fits right in. Can't do much for complete idiots. He'll jump right back on the bandwagon soon. No need for you to throw the great Lloyd Carr under the bus. While there was attrition in the classes it's not like the recruiting was "half assed"... Per Rivals annual recruiting rankings 2004 - #5 2005 - #6 2006 - #13 2007 - #12 2008 - #10 2009 - #8 We are currently at #14 although some of this is mediated by RichRod's taking of electron sized slots. Also, Christian Pace, Devin Gardner and Ricardo Miller are asking where the hell their other stars went. That said, I would reconsider your characterization of Lloyd's efforts. Did he put all the eggs in the Mallett basket? Yes. Was this a problem? Obviously. Best wishes.

I agree that "half-assed" is an inaccurate term, but the use of recruiting rankings creates a flawed argument due to the phenomenon by which recruits magically gain prestige and stars once offered by/committed to Michigan. It's difficult to look at the personnel problems without concluding that both attrition and poor planning in terms of numbers of bodies (or at least a failure to close the deal in some cases) are major factors.

That's rich... especially since you just climbed out of the MGoBlog basement, Mr. Night Game Petition. Jus' sayin... Oh, and stop feeding the trolls. This becomes a positive feedback cycle and will only lead to more trolling. I know you're getting messaged and all, and you have every right to be annoyed but just ignore it.

The best thing to do with RR haters is to ignore them and walk away then two years from now when they are on the RR band wagon because of his success throw them under the bus and run them over if you hate RR you have no clue what college football is all about. RR can recruit, he can win he has proven both and if you think his system wont work in the big ten, I would bet when he was at west VA he would have walked all over 9 of the 11 big ten teams. He has to have time.
