Apparently. He's the guy who kept saying the rumors were Mitchell because he has inside information. Even after Mitchell went on twitter and said that all of those rumors were false.

Isn't that why half of us are here?

I've seen 3 people in this thread repeat the same thing. Clearly they belong to a certain site...I don't think any coach is going around telling message board posters the exact same story.

Stop being assholes. Leave that for me.

The point stands...people are regurgitating the same "inside" info. Clearly it's something they got from a pay site.

All of the snark comments about these posters being "insiders" or whatever are unwarranted. Period. No one claimed to be an insider...they're just presenting information as fact because they trust the source they pay to get the information. Many times that information is credible depending on the subject. In this case, it certainly seems credible - but that's for you to decide. 

No one is making you believe the rumor. On the same note, I wouldn't expect someone to come to MGoBlog and go "actually (this) is what happened, and I know because I'm sharing insider information from (pick your credible insider...Sam, Steve, etc.) that I'm not supposed to share."

But again, if you don't want to believe it...the "THERE ARE..." thread is just a click away. Have at it.

Information from the camp is only as good as the sources who want to acknowledge the facts. I wouldn't completely discount what he is saying. I just haven't heard it was true from any of mine. It will play out in fall camp. When kids are in the doghouse they get buried in camp and struggle to see any reps early in the season.

Regardless of doghouse rumors or not I expect Mitchell to be buried in camp and struggle to see the field because he's so raw at WR. If Ways is healthy, Mitchell is probably the 6th outside receiver on the depth chart behind Chesson, Darboh, Ways, Harris and Crawford. That's says RS to me.

You don't actually expect me to say names do you? 

I was formerly on the team. I have friendships with people still employed in different capacities by Michigan Football/Athletics. I have friends also formerly on the team who stay plugged in. That's as specific as I care to be with who shares information with me.

Asking for a source is silly, obviously he's not going to give that up. DMT is a pretty solid poster too, so I'm not here to call him out on BS. But I just have a hard time believing Mitchell is in that kind of doghouse. We'll just have to wait and see but if it does come to fruition then props to the Dr.

All I do is get negged for saying the info I get, I don't give a shit how I look. I have an outlet to anonymously share information I get first hand with other fans so I do. 

I got negged when I told the board we agreed with nike 6 weeks before it got out. I didn't get negged when I told the board that DPJ told one of my sources months ago that he is going to Michigan. Internet points don't bother me either way

Edit: and I think, while there may be a few, not many on this board are invested in the same that I am

and we may know the same person as I heard the same and do not sub to any site. I stopped sharing info a while back for reasons seen here: source or die, wannabe insider, liar, stole from site you're not even a member of, etc. It's as if people think UM Football players and employees aren't real people with friends?! As if it's inconceivable that anyone could know someone in that group.....because they don't......and they REALLY LOVE Michigan Football!? Pssttt.....they're just people and they have friends and they talk to them. Astonishing, I know.
