Practice Video, NEW JERSEYS????
I began watching the "countdown to kickoff" video, it has the first practice. Then I noticed they got new jerseys on.

I want to negbang you for double posting, but your picture keeps drawing away my mouse.
Update: Went ahead and fixed that for you.
August 10th, 2009 at 4:49 PM ^
LOL, you doubled posted topics on the mgoboard.
August 10th, 2009 at 4:53 PM ^
Im gonna go get the papers....get the papers!
August 10th, 2009 at 4:53 PM ^
So? The Practice jerseys have stripes on them...
Big Fucking Deal.
Today's video is pretty good though!
August 10th, 2009 at 4:57 PM ^
All spring they had game day jerseys(2008 jerseys).
August 10th, 2009 at 5:02 PM ^
It's a new season now isn't it?
Rivals called them Practice Jerseys, I'll take their word for it.
If it was the Beave, I'd wait for double confirmation from the bricklayer and the janitor.
August 10th, 2009 at 4:57 PM ^
I cannot get the top video to load but I did get the one right underneath it too.
Anyone else having that problem?
August 10th, 2009 at 4:59 PM ^
Yep. Not sure what the deal is right now.
August 10th, 2009 at 5:02 PM ^
While the SIDs have really started to hit high gear again over the last week, they've put out a ton of content starting today. It could just be first day bugs.
August 10th, 2009 at 5:03 PM ^
I found it in the Multimedia player.
It wasn't listed in that list thing yet.
August 10th, 2009 at 5:06 PM ^
I found the video, it just won't load. The loading sign just spins continuously.
August 10th, 2009 at 5:09 PM ^
Welcome to MGoVideo, it sucks balls.
August 10th, 2009 at 5:13 PM ^
Becareful who you attribute that to, MGoVideo is actually an awesome service. MGoBlue, totally different video animal.
August 10th, 2009 at 5:25 PM ^
I was actually coming back here to edit my above post after I discovered my error. Sorry.
August 10th, 2009 at 5:16 PM ^
Check the second video from the top. I couldn't get the top one to work either, but the one below it is from today and works fine.
August 10th, 2009 at 5:21 PM ^
Watched that one. Good stuff. I'm just waiting for the full Countdown video to work. The list says that it'll be out "Late Monday" so we'll probably have to wait a few hours yet.
August 10th, 2009 at 5:01 PM ^
same here.
August 10th, 2009 at 5:03 PM ^
These actually look pretty cool. I wouldn't want the team wearing them on Saturdays, but I might buy one if I had the chance.
August 10th, 2009 at 5:17 PM ^
looked like a position player going through that drill
August 10th, 2009 at 5:21 PM ^
He's been working with a personal trainer all summer. They've been doing some Barwis stuff, mixed with his trainer's routine.
I spoke with his Dad a couple weeks before Taylor went up, and his dad couldn't believe what kind of shape he was in. It wasn't the biased kind; it was more like he was shocked at what Taylor was doing.
August 10th, 2009 at 5:32 PM ^
i like seeing him wearing the #77. if he can keep his leverage while moving his feet like that, he'll rarely be out of position
August 10th, 2009 at 6:16 PM ^
Big Will Campbell also appears to be lean and mean. Wonder what kind of impact he will make this year.
August 10th, 2009 at 4:59 PM ^
i think they are practice jerseys. it does not look like the sleeves are cut for pads.
August 10th, 2009 at 5:20 PM ^
Practice? We're talkin about practice?
August 10th, 2009 at 7:32 PM ^
straight practice jerseys. I saw Tennessee wearing the same jerseys with the stripes on the side (no not in michigan's colors) when they showed them on college football live today.
August 10th, 2009 at 5:04 PM ^
The team doesn't usually practice in game jerseys. If we have a new look we most likely won't see it until the opener (or possibly Fan Day).
August 10th, 2009 at 5:11 PM ^
Only thing different in game day jerseys or practice jerseys in the past were names on the back.
Maybe RR wants game jerseys only on game days so its more of an award putting it on.
August 10th, 2009 at 5:10 PM ^
are gonna look awesome when speeding down the sideline.
August 10th, 2009 at 5:12 PM ^
1. Seeing Shoelace under center
2. "Our feet look so much better this year"
Go Blue
August 10th, 2009 at 5:15 PM ^
On rivals, someone talked about the practice:
1) Offensive Line looks REALLY good
2) Mike Martin is a monster
3) Tate and sheridan look more defined than in spring
4) Mathews and Odoms return kicks
August 10th, 2009 at 5:26 PM ^
Did anyone notice Rod Smith's black eye? Reminder that you don't make Tate angry
August 10th, 2009 at 5:29 PM ^
There is no chin under Tate's beard, just another fist. Or something like that.
August 10th, 2009 at 5:34 PM ^
He had eye surgery
August 10th, 2009 at 5:34 PM ^
They're practice jerseys. Adidas (and, for that matter, Nike as well) comes out with them every year. Tennessee has the same one, with orange in place of blue. I'm sure Notre Dame, Wisco, and other adidas schools have the same template.
Tennessee pic
They will not be on the field for an actual game. EVER.
August 10th, 2009 at 5:36 PM ^
Ahh you posted right before me. I watched a video on rivals highlighting Mante Te'o, and Notre Dame has the same exact jerseys.
Should have gave us the maize practice jerseys =\
August 10th, 2009 at 5:35 PM ^
How are you guys seeing the video? The one on mgoblue.com isn't up yet. I think one of the tubes in my internets is plugged up.
August 10th, 2009 at 5:37 PM ^
go to the multimedia link, you can access it from there, though I've been waiting for it to load for a half-hour.
August 10th, 2009 at 5:39 PM ^
The actual countdown to kickoff day 26 video won't be up till later tonight. There is a sights and sounds video of our first practice though right underneath it. It's only about 1:30 long but it shows Denard, Tate, and Lewan doing some drills with their groups.
August 10th, 2009 at 5:43 PM ^
Thanks to Timmmaay and Woodson2Heisman. May your wolverines have a dozen pups this year.
August 10th, 2009 at 5:37 PM ^
AnnArbor.com just posted video of some QB work today...
http://www.annarbor.com/sports/um-football/a-quick-look-at-the-michigan…
Also, some other notes....
http://www.annarbor.com/sports/practice-observations-for-michigan-footb…
Interesting that Rothstein mentions Denard Robinson being really short.
August 10th, 2009 at 5:57 PM ^
The offensive line looks SO much better. I do agree that Lewan was moving like a skill position player through those drills, the future looks exciting for him. Also it was great to see Denard back there I'm really looking forward to see that speed at quarterback.

could function as exhibit A on why I've hated the Adidas deal since before it happened.
Those really aren't Michigan jerseys, they're Adidas jerseys that Michigan football players happen to be wearing. Adidas' corporate logo (the three stripes) features way to prominently on much of the gear they make for teams, and it should be about
THE TEAM, THE TEAM, THE TEAM!!!!
not Adidas.
