“We were losing a bunch of one-goal games, and now we’re able to pull these games out,” Hunwick said. “It’s huge in the second half to know you can play in games like that.”

"I'm a big fan of (Robinson's) game in general. He's got a big, strong athletic body, he rebounds, he shoots well off the catch, and I think he'll also be a really good defender. He's a guy who I think has the potential to play in the NBA one day."
watch the end of year all conference teams ignore Hunwick. I give it 50-50.

here's the plan: run downfield and grab it

"I grew up in communism until I was three and a half years old, lived through a revolution, while bullets were flying through our apartment on Christmas Eve," Mesko, now 25, told reporters in Indianapolis, which is hosting the NFL's showpiece for the first time.
They run their mouth, and then when they meet up with the belly of the beast -- I call myself that because I am -- then they want run away. When it comes to reality, they want to run away."

just over half of people actually like them, which just goes to show that just over half of people need to be shot into the sun.
Down to Bama or Bucks. I hope he is going to Alabama.
Sad to see a Michigan fan not even take an visit to Ann Arbor. If RR got him on campus, I think we could of had a shot.
Hard to call yourself a fan
I think you can be a fan, and
I think you can be a fan, and still do whats best for yourself, even if that mean going against everything that stands for.
But...I agree, he wasn't truly a fan since he didn't even visit
I disagree. Jim Tressel makes
I disagree. Jim Tressel makes way more in a year than I'll make in 20, but if OSU approached me to be their next head coach I'd say up yours.
What?!
you mean you wouldn't take the job to purposely lose to Michigan every year?
Yo: Not that I loved Rodriguez less, but that I loved Michigan more.

Haha fair point.
In
Haha fair point.
In response to both you and Koyote, this was meant as an analogy for what DePriest is going through. If it turns out he picks the Buckeyes so that he can purposely miss assignments every time he plays Michigan then I will reassess my opinion of his fandom.
dream job
I'd love that job. Postgame vs. UM:
Reporter: "Umm,.....coach why did you punt on second down?"
Me:"We wanted to pin them. It's all about field position."
Reporter: "Coach why are you wearing a Michigan sweatshirt?"
Me: "It goes with my shoes. You're reaching. Next question."
I do this on the NCAA games
I do this on the NCAA games every so often. Go to OSU, run them into the ground, get fired, take some crap school like Middle Tennessee State to prominence, go back to OSU, run them further into the ground, etc. It was even better when you could pick up sanctions (NCAA 06 or whenever that was).
Disagree, you take the job
Edit: ^^^^Great minds think alike
Disagree, you take the job and throw every game against Michigan and other important games.
So John Cooper was really a
So John Cooper was really a Michigan fan. That explains so much...
I agree, it sounds like he
I agree, it sounds like he was a fan is the most casual sense. It's too bad he didn't even give us a shot - for a while it was said we'd be in on it if we had a good season - and we didn't even get that much.
Trey - go to Bama. I'd hate for you to get smoked for 4 years by your "favorite" team.
Yeah, learn from Justin
Yeah, learn from Justin Turner's mistake.
(He's going to 'Bama)
DO learn from Justin Turner's mistake
...and transfer out of Ohio schools before the Bucknuts who run their silly standardized test start "losing the scores" of every player who didn't go scarlet and gray.

Hey, it's not like I
Hey, it's not like I mentioned that UM admitted a kid who couldn't pass a test that requires only a 40% score to pass and is written at an 8th grade level.
Oh dang.
Touche
For the record, they admitted me and I failed my HSPTs.
Apparently the correct answers, when seen on the answer sheet, were NOT in the shape of a TIE fighter.
Pity.

A common mistake. More often
A common mistake. More often than not, the answers are ACDC, repeated as necessary. It turns out that educational assessment experts like to be shaken all night long.
From all the insiders at
From all the insiders at Bucknuts it's really been up in the air. Some say he's an absolute Bama lock and another is saying Buckeye all the way. I'm really trending toward Bama for this kid unfortunately for us. One of his highschool coaches seems to be leading him toward Bama for unknown reasons. Some seem to think the coach is trying as good as he can to get in with Saban as an assistant down the road. I think a lot of it is just sour grapes though from a lot of the OSU fans.
If he would come to OSU, he wouldn't be sitting for much more than a year (if that) as the depth chart isn't extremely deep at LB, at least not for someone as talented as Depriest.
I come in peace?
Maybe his coach
Really is a Michigan fan. Wouldn't that explain why he's steering him away from the Buckeyes?
I really, really hope he
picks alabama
"Gentlemen, it is better to have died a small boy than to fumble this football." - John Heisman
Springfield, Ohio
I actually grew up in Springfield too, where Trey is, and there aren't many true Michigan fans. There are kids who say they're Michigan fans just to be different, but deep down, they're Ohio State fans too. It's hard to escape the ever-present infestation of scarlet and gray. I'd be shocked if he doesn't end up a Buckeye, especially since his good buddy Braxton Miller is already one.

you can have DePriest. We'll take Dee Hart.

Sam Webb
Did an interview with him for the Detroit News awhile ago, where he stated he grew up a Michigan fan.
I googled it but the article is no longer available.
If he goes Bama
If Trey ends up going to Bama that would be 2 years in a row where the top linebacker prospect in Ohio, and one of the best in the nation, left the state. In the 2010 class it was Jordan Hicks i believe. Even these kids know the state sucks.
No Fly Zone!
Hicks...
...iirc, wasn't really an Ohio native and therefore did not have any real allegiance to that stupid school down there.
Do Something. If it works, do more of it. If it doesn't, do something else.
yes it was jordan hicks
and he made a great decision =)
Hook 'em Horns
9/9 so far for in state kids.
9/9 so far for in state kids. Even if we lose Depriest we still have no.1 CB Doran Grant which a lot of people are calling a heavy Buckeye lean. When this year's recruiting is complete it will end up as a heck of a class for OSU no matter if Depriest commits to OSU or UA.
I come in peace?
I'm not sure
Why this was negged. Probably the comment about being 9/9...
not just "douchey" MGoBlog user, but now TRUSTED MGoBlog user
yeah thats not true, Depriest
yeah thats not true, Depriest is more than just icing on a cake. He has the potential to be a difference maker on the field, any school in the nation would make room for him no matter what their LB situation looked like.
That said I do agree OSU has been very successful in recruiting this year, and should close out strong.

Signing day is a long way away
It doesn't matter where these guys commit to know.If we have a good season we can sway these guys minds.Clinton Dix Dee Hart teamate is already thinking bout visiting,and if Trey commits to bama we might be able to steal him back,and yes he was a Michigan fan growing up.If you listen to the recuirting round on wtka.com you would know that.
I agree
I logged on just to make a similar statement. There are also plenty of other prospects available.
(Not aimed any particular poster here) I would also add that since some of these young guys and their parents, friends, and coaches read these blogs and message boards it would not look favorable on Michigan if the fans acted like dicks when a commit is rumored or actually not in our favor.

The enemy of my enemy is my friend.
Way I'm swinging today, nothing bugs me except insufficient applause.
Hard to call yourself a fan when you don't even visit and the main rival is in your top two. Good luck to him and his horrible definitions of words.
or uh, Duder, or El Duderino if you're not into the whole brevity thing.
