3 weeks 6 days ago A lot of people do care. Why

A lot of people do care. Why do you think there is so much interest in the Director's Cup? We hang our hat on being the best combination of academics and athletics and Stanford is the only school that can claim superiority. We crush them in football and men's basketball and that is good enough for me.

4 weeks 4 days ago This makes total sense. I was

This makes total sense. I was thinking the only reason for GRIII to come back was to develop at the 3 which is where he'll play in the NBA. MM is more a 4 as well.

6 weeks 2 hours ago F-you, c-sucker. The only

F-you, c-sucker. The only point I will concede is that L took full advantage of their fortuitous officiating. Don't fucking point out the foul differential. Louisville just keeps fouling and knows the refs won't take their players out of the game in the end. Someone convince me Mitch's fourth foul and UL's 11 not getting his fourth didn't profoundly affect the game.

6 weeks 14 hours ago Coach is the perfect

Coach is the perfect embodiment of the Michigan Man. He is the master of his craft yet humble to a fault. He is truly a genuine, caring mentor for all his players. I get now why he's not in on the recruitment of many one-and-done types. He wants kids that want to be at Michigan as opposed to those that are just looking for a pit stop. He expects them to be student-athletes by demanding they go to class and study on top of their busy basketball schedule.

 

We are truly lucky to have this man leading our basketball program.

6 weeks 5 days ago Go Blue!

59-57. Michigan

6 weeks 6 days ago I can't believe people are

I can't believe people are criticizing this guy for taking a million dollar raise. He took this program probably as far as it can go. They won't be able to compete with UF, FSU, and Miami in the long run. They don't have the resources and alumni/booster base to do so.

This hire makes total sense for USC/Haden. Haden is a cerebral guy so it figures he'd be enamored with a Hopkins man. Also, Enfield has shown the ability to take a fledgling, moribund program and turn it into a winner in a short time. Time will tell whether or not he can do it against the big boys.

7 weeks 1 day ago And who was benefitting from

And who was benefitting from Trey getting in the lane when we were losing during the season? Burke has been great but I think MM has been the catalyst of our tournament run.

10 weeks 1 day ago I don't know if you should

I don't know if you should hate a guy like this. You should feel sorry for hiim because he obviously has issues. Maybe his wife treats him like a fourth grade girl and this behavior is his compensatory mechanism for his lack of self-esteem.

10 weeks 6 days ago You might be able to get him

You might be able to get him to lay 96.3-1

11 weeks 13 hours ago I like your analogy but there

I like your analogy but there is the fact that they get to start with the easiest question on the final.

11 weeks 5 days ago Call me a cynic, but it's

Call me a cynic, but it's easy to make this move when the football team's at the top of the mountain and their recruiting machine is bringing in top recruits on an annual basis. Also, was this Nick's doing or the University's? UA couldn't take the PR hit that would've accompanied keeping these guys on, especially if they only kept the guys most likely to contribute on the playing field. They don't want to actually confirm to the world that they have a win-at-all-costs mentality.

12 weeks 11 hours ago Lived in MoJo first two years

Lived in MoJo first two years and, yes, I was living in the dorm and going to Rick's. I guess I've dated myself with this info.

And, it really was a bitch trying to hook up with a girl when you're both drunk and trying to climp up into a loft bed.

12 weeks 6 days ago Games were built around Dr.

Games were built around Dr. Buss. LA poker pros salivated when he'd show up. Pretty sure he was a regular at Larry Flynt's games.

13 weeks 1 day ago How about Woodson and Mesko.

How about Woodson and Mesko. What did Armstrong ever do that required his personal time commitment outside of the cursory ones?

13 weeks 1 day ago I suppose he has a reason to

I suppose he has a reason to be salty. He built/is Duke basketball. Maryland, by leaving th ACC, has really opened up the possibility of UVA, GT, and UNC leaving as well. That would kill the academic cache of the conference.

Duke's fortune is tied to UNC. They will fade (even the basketball) into irrelevance if they're separated.

13 weeks 4 days ago Good news! You don't have to

Good news! You don't have to hope. This game was an anomaly. All the stars just happened to align. I wouldn't be surprised if we were small favorites in the rematch.

13 weeks 4 days ago Not sure why you would take

Not sure why you would take solace in this. Coach Wilcher is a Michigan Man and he's doing a great job with the CT program. He deserves a lot of credit for churning out more and more players that are garnering national attention. It will only benefit Michigan if these guys start to meet or exceed expectations.

Hot Doug's! But, it's hard to beat a good coney.

13 weeks 5 days ago It doesn't seem possible

It doesn't seem possible because it needs to stew for several years. Rants usually have short-term horizons because people wind up getting over it if they don't rant immediately.

14 weeks 12 hours ago I'm not sweating this loss.

I'm not sweating this loss. It will just make us tougher come March. Tournament games will be officiated more evenly.

Anyway, why was Mitch in the paint and not defending the inbounder? At bare minimum, he should've been helping on one of their best shooters.

As I haven't been able to watch the games, I want to know how Craft fouled out against IU and had no problems against us, even in AA. Was it the officiating or was it something schematic IU did. Surely Burke has to be more difficult to defend than any IU guard.

14 weeks 4 days ago What about OJ? I think it

What about OJ? I think it proves that you can get away with pretty much anything if you have the financial means.

14 weeks 4 days ago Problem is that the accuracy

Problem is that the accuracy may not carry over when he alters his mechanics. I would think it would be easier to gain accuracy as opposed to power.

14 weeks 6 days ago I think we will feast on some

I think we will feast on some home cooking and win by double digits. We'll see how good the Ohio defense is when they start getting called for blocking instead of getting charging calls. Also, if Craft gets called for some early fouls for his aggressive hand checking,this game won't ever be in doubt.

15 weeks 2 days ago Looked to me like he was

Looked to me like he was trying to shake the refs hand and got brushed off.

15 weeks 2 days ago I admit to being one of those

I admit to being one of those "rigid" guys. It just hurts my eyes to see improper spelling most of all. However, I realize this is the Internet and people are typing quickly. Typos will happen.

I do agree with your point. I don't think it's necessary to make disparaging remarks, especially with a tone of condescension. If you don't like, don't read.

17 weeks 5 days ago I believe Nike gets Tiger's

I believe Nike gets Tiger's forged muscleback irons from Miura. Endo forging is probably considered the best and I wouldn't be surprised if Nike gets Rory's irons from them.

This is why the notion that "Nike clubs suck" doesn't hold water here. Most of the top blade irons are coming from these Japanes foundries. There's only so much technology that can go into exactly where to distribute a limited amount of mass on the back of an iron. The most important factors are shaft and grind. I'm sure he will keep the same shafts and sole grinds.

18 weeks 2 hours ago You can't say he's "the best

18 weeks 3 days ago I think your expected return

I think your expected return on this wager is less than $20. Hard to believe M can spot double-digit points on the road.

21 weeks 16 hours ago I don't get guys like you.

I don't get guys like you. Are you looking for a homogenous student body?

Norfleet sounds like a wonderful young man. It sounds like he's got a plan and will do anything he can to execute it. He will be a productive member of society and make us proud to call him a fellow alumn. That's more than you can say about the bevy of "smart" students you get every year that get lost and flame out.

22 weeks 1 day ago I guess this means Ohio will

22 weeks 3 days ago I agree 100% with your last

I agree 100% with your last sentence. Both UC's will never be great in football and that's what really matters. Both UC's combined may never approach the academic prestige and wealth/influence of the alumni base of UVA. I think these are the traits the BIG is looking for.

22 weeks 6 days ago Craft had the support of a

Craft had the support of a much better supporting cast. Ohio had and still has a great defensive team. I'd say Craft's job of defending was made a lot easier knowing he had good help behind him.

23 weeks 1 day ago How was my post starting a

How was my post starting a "BURN THEM ALL" chant? You completely miss my point.

You're obviously so vested in ND Athletics that you'll eat up the company spin and ignore some troubling aspects of this case. Two things that stood out to me: 1) Four young college students are hanging out and Lizzy was the only one consuming alcohol. 2) An attractive young coed is sexually aggressive and giving a testosterone-filled young man a lap dance and he just decides he doesn't want any of it.

I've read that these are statements the player in question made to the police. I don't know about you, but they don't pass the smell test to me.

That is the reason Griffin won't vote for him. I don't think he wants anyone else with a chance at multiple Heismans.

24 weeks 5 hours ago I was just making a joke. I'm

I was just making a joke. I'm not a smoker so I have no idea how weed affects people but I am a drinker and I suspect that weed is less a detriment to one's studies than alcohol. I say this only because alcohol is more readily available and easier to abuse. Plus you don't have to deal with a hangover after smoking up.

24 weeks 3 days ago I guess it shouldn't be a

I guess it shouldn't be a surprise that the leader is the M fan. She can take solace in the fact that it's probably good for staff morale.

Texas could have it's pick of any conference. Not sure why you think SEC wouldn't want them.

I think the Bobcats are "THE" Ohio University.

24 weeks 5 days ago I know I'm biased but I think

I know I'm biased but I think our offense can score on anyone. But, it was a bit disconcerting seeing us struggle against the pressure at the end of the NC State game. Ohio is athletic enough to bring that for the whole game

24 weeks 5 days ago How the heck do you survive

How the heck do you survive that without weekly Michigan Football?

24 weeks 5 days ago Two observations: 1. Mason

Two observations:

1. Mason Plumlee reminds me of Ivan Drago.

2. Ohio's defense looks awesome.

Conclusions:

1. I can't root for Duke because I can't root for a Communist.

2. Ohio scares me because they look like the long and lean team that will give us fits.

24 weeks 5 days ago I don't agree that the ACC

I don't agree that the ACC would rather have Louisville than Maryland. This was just a move made out of desperation/necessity.

Louisville offers nothing outside of football and basketball. Maryland is a national power in several non-revenue sports.

I think Louisville's success in football and basketball are tenuous at best. They lucked out with both Petrino and Strong. Strong is gone when the next high-profile job opens up. Then, most likely another long stretch of mediocrity. Basketball will probably always be second fiddle to UK. Fortunately, it looks like Petino stays for a while and they'll have continued success, but then?

Maryland has a much greater educated, monied population base. Read: larger, more influential fan base.

25 weeks 14 hours ago It's got to be tough

It's got to be tough preparing one, let alone three, qb's in the short amount of prep time. I think it's really hard to blame Borges for not having the 3rd string qb ready to play.

Having said that, I'll concede that he should've been more prepared for the possibility that a backup qb would need to play. I'm not certain, but wasn't Denard's elbow injured before the Nebraska game? Also, he should've recognized that Devin was/is a better qb than Russell.

Now that I think about it, I guess it is all Borges' fault!

Probably not if it's in a losing effort

32 weeks 1 day ago How can you make that

How can you make that comparison without accounting for the difference in the quality of the opposing defenses?

32 weeks 2 days ago How do you correct that and

How do you correct that and not correct the "routing?" I root for Michigan to win.

Recently purchased twelve Breakfast Stouts. Trying to make this supply last is more difficult than I imagined. Hard to stop at just one.

I can't believe I'm gonna be "that guy" but it's "piqued", not "peaked."  Then again, if you couldn't be any more interested, I'll kindly remove my foot from my mouth.

You're either dating yourself or terribly unhip. Don't be "that guy" if you're not sure.

34 weeks 5 days ago I'm assuming you're referring

I'm assuming you're referring to football players. I have no idea if all scholarship athletes receive the same benefits.

I can't believe you'd begrudge the athletes anything they receive. If anything, football players are woefully under-compensated. Just think of their benefits as compensation for a job they're performing for the university. A job that has skill requirements that few in the student body possess.

As a former student I appreciated all the football players did for the school. They gave the school a great team for which to cheer.

They also subsidized part of our own education costs. Having the Athletic Department being financially independent and profitable allowed the University to not pass some of the costs to the students.

As for having to stress out about interviews, applications, and resume, that's all on you. If you're smart and motivated, opportunity will be there.

35 weeks 1 day ago just realized what I wrote

just realized what I wrote made no sense. Guess that's what happens when you are doing multiple things and occasionally checking back on the blog.

I was trying to say that I think ND's front seven looks very good and they should be able to stop our rushing attack without safety help. It's yet to be seen whether we can sustain scoring drives through the air.

MSU doesn't have a Hawaiian wall in the middle of their defense

35 weeks 1 day ago I hate to say it, but I think

I hate to say it, but I think we lose to ND. We haven't been able to stop the run all year and ND looks good with their two-headed rushing attack. I initially thought we'd have Funchess all day given how open the MSU tight end was but I realized they won't be selling out to stop the run against us.

I think MSU is a coin flip. They will run the ball all day and control the clock. Maybe we will be able to stop the run by then, maybe not.

You can tell he's spent some time in the States because he not singing "sexy rady", lol.

And, before the lynch mob comes out, I've already warned y'all I have a terrible sense of humor. Also, it is impossible for me to be racist on this subject.

FYI, Gangnam is Seoul's equivalent of Park Avenue albeit there's a difference in that you'll see more young adults and a vibrant nightlife. I assume you know what style means and oppa, well, maybe CRex's little SIL used to call him that.

I always root for the Spartans with the exception of when they're playing us.

All my Spartan friends are reasonably intelligent and rational people who don't hate on UM. Hard to believe, I know, but there are Spartans that love their school and don't hate UM because they couldn't get in.

Anyways, screw ND and Go Spartans!

It does seem to be a coup on Notre Dame's part. They were smart and made the buyout figure cost-prohibitive.

I think this move really screws the BIG. Doubt there will be any more expansion talks about Maryland, UNC, Duke, GT, and UVa. Or BC for that matter.

I'm just a lurker so I'm not sure what possessed me to post something so unoriginal/not funny. I'm not very clever so sophomoric attempts at humor is probably all you'll get out of me.

Damn, you forgot to tell the kid to get off your lawn.

Color me shocked that a 15 yo football player would boast about how much he lifts.

The death penalty is too harsh IMO. Happy Valley is so insular a lot of the local economy is probably dependent on their football season business.

I do think the football program needs to be punished but don't have an opinion yet of how harshly
