Youtube SEC & Georgia Fan - Uncle Lou - 2019 Michigan Preview
If you haven't checked this guy out, you need to.
He does college football team season reviews and 2019 team previews, game-by-game predictions.
Southern accent, unapologetic Georgia and SEC fan and unabashed trash talker.
But he does good research. And I enjoy his delivery.
And the comment sections of his vids are just pure comedy gold.
His Michigan Preview is here. He is high on the Wolverines this year:

Also, his contempt for Notre Dame seems to be pretty epic, so for pure entertainment value, you might enjoy his 2019 Notre Dame preview:

Here's an embed:
Part of me is high on him for just having Loutube. Reminds me of Lougle.
That said, I don't think I agree with his comparison of RR's run spread vs. What I thought Gattis was going to run. But I'm not a coach with a super strong handle on scheme.

You had me at contempt for Notre Dame.

uhhh...Good research? LOL. No. He can't pronounce player names and merely quotes Athlon.

To be fair, name pronunciation isn’t relevant to being informed on said players names football abilities.
I like how you disregard the comment about quoting Athlon.
So what if he only addressed pronunciation? Apparently he doesn't disagree with the poster about quoting Athlon.
Don't care much about the pronunciation, but he admits "he doesn't know who these people are." Pick up an Athlon mag and read it to yourself in the mirror and it's pretty much the same thing -- as long as you can do a Georgia accent.
To be fair, quoting a magazine is real original work for most sec grads.
I would not say "merely quotes Athlon".
Sure, he did that.
But he also happens to recognize, for example, that most of our running back production left, and that we're left with Tru Wilson, Christian Turner, Hassan Haskins and Charbonnet. And that Michigan's defense will probably not be as good as last few years.
He's no Hillbillied college football Stephan Hawking. But he's also not a gravy-sweating, sister-kissing moron either.
Besides I like him primarily for the entertainment value.
Almost as much as the comment sections here on mgoblog.
It's fine that you like his delivery and find him entertaining. Your characterization of reading Althon as "good research" is a stretch. He makes jokes, has opinions, and makes predictions. He readily admits he really doesn't know much about the roster or the players aside from returning starter, returning production type stuff. The rest is just general football extrapolation.
I do always enjoy when someone quotes someone, but the person being quoted never actually used those words, nor even implied that. I could similarly say that I enjoyed how you said, “I’m bad at reading.” Did I think the video was particularly insightful? No, it was typical offseason fluff. But, if you’re going to quote someone, at least be accurate and use an actual quote.

LOL, Hornibrook makes game managers seem exciting.

He has UofM at 11-1 with the loss @PSU. and he think she if UofM does best PSU the loss could be @Maryland.
Don’t think we lose at Maryland but at PSU could be the game. Tough to win at Happy Valley.
@maryland would not shock me at all. Every team has a let down game. Sometimes you’re just good/lucky enough to win it. Sometimes not. Look at Clemson losing to Syracuse a couple years ago (yes I know the QB got injured, but still shouldn’t have been close). Every year, every single great team has a shit game, even Bama. Maryland could easily be it and we might not be able to pull it out.
seriously..... adding a link or two....
so easy a caveman can do it

Yeah I know how to do it. I should have used the stupid link creation tool/icon.
"Normally" if you just paste the URL, a link is auto-created. Not here.
After I posted this, I could not re-edit the post for some reason.
