BTW, The Round Mound is turrible!  He recently said (last week) that professional sports players should get preference for getting the C19 vaccination first because they entertain so many people.  I guess that would keep his money train as an analyst as a viable job should the NBA get shut down for a spell.  But I'm not sure that people of higher risk for C19 agree.  You know, the people that aren't world class athletes with immediate and constant access to the best health care and diets in the entire world.

He's usually good for some cringe-worthy commentary, and this certainly fits that description...

His argument, from what I saw, was that they should get the vaccine because they pay so much in taxes. Not saying I agree with the argument, but he did add that bit in there.

Plus, what else are they going to talk about? Shaq said all that needed to be said about James Harden whining his way to Brooklyn, so they had to fill the air time with something.

This isn't a grades thing. He has already graduated with a 3.5 gpa. Apparently a paperwork issue that Michigan could not resolve. Michigan better be talking to him as frequently as possible and coaching him up through zoom so that he can hit the ground running when he gets here

If he is graduated from HS with a 3.5 gpa right now and Michigan is not letting him in early this is a major screw-up.  For him as well because I believe his school was going to be playing football in the spring and if he has already graduated I would assume that means he would not be allowed to be in classes in the spring or play ball.  

Total mess there.

This is the only thing the people talking about Harbaugh being hamstrung by Michigan have a point on. The problem at Michigan doesn't just seem to be higher academic standards. There just seems to be some weird way grades and all are done at Michigan that makes it a giant pain in the ass for some recruits and transfers. Not sure what it would take to resolve things, but it gets really old because it doesn't seem to serve any purpose.
