Stan Edwards Call to WTKA

You made the right call, but when you are in a hurry at work sometimes you fall back into coach speak as you rattle on.   At least I didn't say "we're working real hard and I'm hoping we win the turnover battle".

Was that entire 2nd paragraph one sentence?

The way Brandon has been talking I was wondering if he was going to have a little speech to that effect after the bowl game.  So I guess that wouldn't surprise me.

So how would you explain Stan Edwards? Not sarcasm, just wondering. Rick seems like he would be a lot harder to control than Stan. I love both guys, but Rick seems a bit more, well, harder to keep hinged than Stan.

I can't imagine the coaching staff does not have some piece of literature detailing those dates when they cannot make contact, and emphasizing that schools that might make contact are breaking the rules. I could imagine the recruits not reading that pile of stuff, of course. Regardless, if I were recruiting, they would know, one way or the other.

is a beast.  Would love to have him.  FYI. Brother-in-law saw Sweater Vest in Toledo a couple weeks ago.  I guess he was visiting Wormley. 

Lastly, i concur...BB is a dbag!

IIRC, a report came out saying Braylon had recommended Kearney go to MSU.  This threw everyone into an uproar but I don't remember anything being said about JB not accepting him.

and a part of Michigan history.  Who are you?

Back when Braylon was considering schools, his dad basically told him he could go where he wanted, as long as it was Michigan.  I'm paraphrasing, but I distinctly remember hearing the senior Edwards lay out how he "influenced" his son's decision.  Don't doubt Stan's love for his alma mater by trying to associate him with a third hand comment Braylon may have made, or some stupid assertion that he threw Beilein under the bus.

Beilein reportedly (according to Stan Edwards) told Kearney to wait on committing AFTER Michigan offered him.  The only other comment I remember him (Edwards) making was that it was a "shame that those two (Carlton Brundidge and Kearney) couldn't play together at Michigan."  That's what I heard this morning.  I didn't hear a guy "with a big mouth".

As far as his question about the stud football prospect, it wasn't an attack of Rodriguez, or the staff; it sounded like he was asking a legitimate question about when schools can begin to make contact with a recruit, the answer for which, I bet most of us didn't know the exact answer.  Michigan was waiting, as they're supposed to, other schools not so much.  Edwards was asking questions for clarification, he didn't come on throwing accusations like the knee-jerks on this board are assuming.

It's a legitimate criticism of Beilein, and legitimate question of recruiting practice.  Or does anyone who played for the program have a "big mouth" when you don't agree with them?

... that differs from yours does not mean he has a big mouth.  Shall we mussle all dissent? 

I have much love for our alumni brethren but this statement you made is on point.  The Edward's family could or should back off just a bit. 

That statement about the BB program is a complete embarrassment.  Especially coming from one of ours!  Not in public damnit!  Damn, I'm angry now...where's the bowl game posts?

He said that he's related to Kearney, that M offered Kearney, that Kearney was ready to accept, and that Beilein told him to hold off on accepting...I have no idea if that story is true, but it's what Stan Edwards said.
