99% of Rutgers alumni don't care about sports, but the 1% that do think they should be on par with Michigan both academically and athletically. That's the problem here.
April 13th, 2016 at 12:36 PM ^
They don't want to play in the B1G. They are convinced that Rutgers' ideal league is the PATRIOT League. They honestly see Lehigh, Lafayette and Princeton as their athletic peers.
Seriously, I've met a lot of Rutgers' fans with that attitude. It's odd.
April 13th, 2016 at 12:41 PM ^
I guess Rutgers fans aren't as delusional as I thought...
Most of them are not, actually. However, the ones that are, they're really bad. There is actually a bunch of them who believe that Ash is going to put a wall around NJ and start keeping all of the top players away from Michigan, OSU, etc.

I met a few Rutgers fans in downtown Ann Arbor before the game this year and they were very friendly dudes. They were actually trying to bet me that Michigan would win by 40. They admitted they were terrible at sports and in some weird way this allowed them to enjoy it more because the low expectations kept them relaxed.
I think it's spot on. Rutgers is a perfect fit for the Patriot league.
are RU's most frequent all-time opponents. Both in the PL today, of course.
A list of RU's 10 most frequent opponents does give a sense for what their old die-hard fans grew up on:
3 current Patriot League schools (L&L + Colgate), 2 current Ivys (Columbia, Princeton), 2 schools that no longer play football (NYU, Stevens Tech), Army, and 2 current FBS schools (Syracuse & WVU).
what they say is true.

That is an extremely dumb video. Was going to embed, but no fucking way.

He should speak at the Rutgers commencement. They can use some good advice.

Good try, you clown.
April 13th, 2016 at 12:20 PM ^
We have to put up with them weighing down everyone's seed line and SOS. So they have to have their state pillaged by actual teams.

Four things:
1. Peanut butthurt and jeally is funny right there.
2. Not to be PC, but is Butthurt really appropriate anymore? Is it homophobic? Pro anal-rape? Against trying something different once in awhile...?
3. Jabroni is a much better term.
4. Is there a new word for Douche Bag? To me the only meaning of significance is the type of guy it describes. I forget that it is a women's hygene product and probably not a term to use at work.

Graduation Day is ultimately about the 415 students who are graduating. They arguably should get to vote on their speaker, instead of the principal deciding on such.
April 13th, 2016 at 12:33 PM ^
If given the choice between some state senator that no one had heard of and Jim Harbaugh, who do you think the choice would have been? And even college students don't get to vote on their graduation speaker, the school tries to get the biggest name possible.

Even that is something for high school. I think my speaker was like the city's assistant to the assistant deputy mayor for sanitation.
he does a bang up job.
April 13th, 2016 at 12:43 PM ^
You're lucky if your experience was different. But I'm thinking only your school and Bayside High got to pick your commencement speaker.
April 13th, 2016 at 12:52 PM ^
Let's be honest here, most HS graduates on the day of graduation just want the ceremony to end so they can enjoy their brief summer break before heading away to college.
April 13th, 2016 at 12:30 PM ^
Butthurt has to be the stupidest fucking word in the English language...
It is most often uttered by the least of us...

"the guy who wants the NCAA to drop "student" from "student-athlete"
Wut?
"I suggest we drop the term "student-athlete" for consistency."
April 13th, 2016 at 12:34 PM ^
This is what happens when you introduce people to new things like college football, you get all these awful "hot takes".
April 13th, 2016 at 12:43 PM ^
Stop giving these talentless fucks the time of day. They know the only way to get clicks is to mention Harbaugh and enrage our fan base.
April 13th, 2016 at 12:43 PM ^
Listen, if I had to cover Rutgers football on a yearly basis, I'd be cranky too.

I love how these guys act like they've cracked the code and figured out that college coaches go to areas with a lot of talent because they would like those talented players to attend their universities.
Yes, right, congratulations, brilliant detective work.
April 13th, 2016 at 12:49 PM ^
Harbaugh is so smart.
April 13th, 2016 at 12:52 PM ^
I think he sums up his own video best when he says "I GOT NOTHING".
April 13th, 2016 at 12:54 PM ^
Who is Steve Politi of NJ.com?
OT: For those of us who are somewhat familiat with Metropolitan New York/Northern New Jersey, MGoBloggers might want to know that there is a Paramus High School AND a Paramus Catholic High School.

Wasn't this the dude that slammed Harbaugh for being "fake" at the Big Ten's media day and went on to write an entire article about how amazing and "real" Kyle Flood is?
... I just actually emailed the dude, because I'm irritated. I usually don't do that. Here is my email to him. Will update if he replies.
"Just read/watched your Jim Harbaugh commencement speaker article. While I'm a Michigan fan, I'm not going to argue with your opinion about it being a recruiting advantage. That's your opinion, that's fine.
I did take issue with this statement (below), because it is at best lazy journalism and at worst intentional misrepresentation of the facts to fit your narrative. I'm fairly sure that is not taught in journalism courses.
"Calling him a great leader and educator, Paramus Catholic has announced that Michigan coach Jim Harbaugh will speak at its commencement this spring. What's the real reason that Harbaugh — the guy who wants the NCAA to drop "student" from "student-athlete" — is coming here and that Paramus Catholic wants him? Watch the video above to find out.
When Harbaugh made that comment about "student-athlete" it was clearly a shot at the NCAA for doing everything it can to increase the power of big football schools while reducing access to high school student athletes. He is saying the way the NCAA makes rules, it may as well give up the facade of being about student athletes. This is very, very different than how you portray his comment in the short paragraph before your article. So, my question is this: Are you just lazy or intentionally misrepresenting facts to fit your narrative. Would appreciate a response.
Thanks,

If this entire week has taught me anything it's that there are a ridiculous amount of dumb fucks working in sports media. One more piece of drivel is going to cause me to throw my laptop across the room.
If that happens and the laptop breaks, do we get fewer fire Beilein discussions?
Because if that's the case, you should read today's Shawn Windsor's article arguing that Deyonta Davis going pro after a year is good for MSU because future prospects will see that Izzo can even prepare players for a quick leap to the NBA.
