Well... Might As Well Get It Out Of Our System Now

Submitted by That Darn Wolverine on

Well, we're loosing. and horribly, even though we just scored, we have a long way to go. But I do understand [tactically] why RR has a team full of red shirts and underclass, besides the obvious reasons. If you were the new coach, wouldn't you want depth to grow with you and learn your program? We're staring a whole new gig here, the spread option is an awesome tool when used with the right talent. I am very encouraged with the new talent I see coming in and committing who may be able to acclimate to RR's spread.

But these fresh players need to get a wind of what he's is working with; but that will take time, but as each successive class moves on, our offense will see that many more educated on and experienced with the Michigan brand of the spread offense. This is what I look forward to... but it's hard though when you love your colors and your team. This is the hardest game I've had to watch in a long time, if we pull it out that'll be one thing, but we might as well get it out of our system now.

When you tell other people that you're SMRT, OMGRICH, "almost redshirted" (which means?), and that you know the Moellers, you kind of open yourself up to all sorts of comments.

If you really care that much (And it seems like you do), I'd go call up Moeller, Carr, or whoever you know and bitch out it with them instead of posting your thoughts on the interwebs.  Basically, if you can't handle random people disagreeing with every facet of your arguments, you shouldn't be on the interwebs.

Fantastic point! These young lads have to be won over to the cause. And RR is one more game closer to doing that. ESPN's Mike Mays made a similar commets to yours, with a huge win like this under their belt, their minds should be open to his plan more and he should get more results. This was a great win!!!

 

Second biggest come from behind victory in Michigan history... amazing win!

 

 

Hail to the victors valiant.

I had fun, like I said... this of course dismissing mindless trolling like Mr. Maize4blue over here, we executed on turnovers and committed to the drive when we had the chance and that is what won us the game. The kids needed a faith builder, this was it. Great game, it was a nail biter but fun nonetheless. At least we beat a ranked team, that is what was the most important; trust me Tressell is taking notes.

My two-year-old couldn't keep busy any longer, so I took her to the park when it was 19-7.  I wasn't there for 5 minutes when my phone started blowing up!  I can't believe I missed it.

for the most part, it was the upper classmen that brought this team back...  the freshmen needed someone to calm them down,  they finished it, but upperclassmen started it,  nothing can compare to experience...

i think from this point forward, you will see the upper classmen getting a lot more touches and looks... the freshmen are roll players at this point, the experience they are getting is invaluable, but they are not ready to be go-to

You're talking about Minor and Matthews specifically, right?  I can't really think of any other offensive upper classmen who were that involved.  I was thinking those two in particular need to get more touches, especially minor.  He can pass block and run through tackles, which is something McGuffie isn't going to do that much.
