I wish he would've addressed the addition of advertisements to the field for the spring game. ESPN is reporting that #GOBLUE will be added two places on the field. One step closer to "The Michigan Wolverines - Presented by Dominoes at Johnson and Johnson Stadium"
*Not really "advertisements"... but you get the point. Twitter: Where smart comments are few and far between.
Even if he did address it, it'd be "Hoke speech". The words would sound like he was ok with it, but said in a way that made it clear he wasn't ok with it, pieced together in a way that'd make your head hurt trying to figure out how he actually felt.
I'm pretty sure Hoke is worried about other things this week. It's not like it was Hoke's idea anyways, he doesn't even use twitter. And he's certainly not going to butt heads with Dave Brandon or the rest of the athletic department over this even if he hates it.
Anyone else amused by the Hoke and Angelique interactions? Also, Hoke has changed "well...you know" to just "you know". Sad that I noticed that.
He's lost his edge. It might be time to start looking for a replacement.
There was a thread about it yesterday. It's really not a big deal considering they've had #GOBLUE on the scoreboards at the baskeball and football games. And also for the last three years the spring game has been presented by PNC. So take a chill pill.
Yeah I don't think Hoke will be too thrilled with having a Twitter reference on the field given his take on social media:
I love the smirk he gives when talking about Bolden, kids gonna be special.
can't wait for the spring game. will they wear the helmets with numbers for team 133? I saw in most spring highlights they have them on. will there be an upload for the spring game? hope the rain holds off. GO BLUE!
I hope they keep the helmet numbers. It appears that they will. The numbers are starting to really look "permanent" on the helmet. They seem to represent both a revitialzation of Michigan football in the present (a new Era) as well as a nice tip of the cap to Michigan tradition.
I dont mind the fact that the numbers are darker than the wings...actually that is pretty cool because if the numbers were lighter, the helmet would have a more feminine look....and that doesnt translate well on the football field. The darker numbers make them stand out more.
I have no issue with the helmet numbers. I'd expect that they'll be last year's if my assumption that they refurb the helmets after Spring practice is correct. If they decide to keep them, then it's likely that the colors will match this year.
double post internet snag...
at the 11:00 mark, Hokes talking about texting!
Who was he talking about texting and being glad it wasn't him? Couldn't make out the name.
Jeff Long, the AD at Arkansas that just fired Petrino. They've been friends since high school.
Can't wait for saturday!
I was glad to hear some positive words from Hoke, concerning JT Floyd. I hadn't heard anything regarding JT this spring and was beginning to wonder how he was doing, being a senior and all.
