I lived in Bellevue WA for 15 years and never mowed my lawn in January or saw any of my neighbors do so. As far as from a temperature standpoint the Seattle area average's about 45F where as AA averages 25F. This year I would say that gap closed a bit. |
6 years 11 weeks ago | Granted Stanford is a |
Granted Stanford is a perennial top 10 school and UM is a top 25 school, but out of 100's of universities how much really seperates the 2 schools. They're both prestigious schools with a lengthy history of being so. Put it this way, is an employer with no affiliation to either school, going to pick a Stanford grad over a UM grad just because it's Stanford? Is their Law School and Med School significantly superior? |

Man that game was insane. Early on I thought UW was going yo get blown out. Then I thought BU was going to get blown out. In the 2nd half it went blow for blow. RG3 played well but Price looked pretty darn good too. |

Yeah that was the part that cracked me up. Like dumping the other schools for that shcedule is going to show us! No, it's going to make you ineligible for a BCS bowl. |

Your nuts if you think an ACC or SEC team is going to drop a soft OOC oppponent to pick you up and make their schedule more difficult then the rest of their conference. Padding you schedule with MAC fill ins isn't going to help you out either. |

You may not play Umass, or WMU or EMU but you have your equivalents like Navy, Air Force and South FL. Take Purdue, MSU and UM out of your schedule and you might find 1 or 2 FBS schools to replace them but probably not 3 and that means your record get discounted. It's not just about AP/USA rankings that gets you a BCS bid. Go ask Boise State about it. |

6 years 16 weeks ago | Wait |
when did Heininger get injured? Was it recently in practice? After the ohio game they had a couple of weeks off for finals before practices started up again so if it happened in the last game he might be close to recovery but if it happened in practice he may not. |

I assume that the Pac-12 (Stanford/USC) would follow suit as well and drop ND for a B1G opponent. Why would they want to make their schedule even harder than it already is. If that happens then ND is totally screwed and would have to join a conference. |
6 years 16 weeks ago | Ok |
Yeah they may have tradtion but no more so than UM and although UM hasn't won a lot of MNC's in the last 50 years (undefeated in 73', 10-1 in 72' & 74' no bowl games) they have won at least a share of 22 B1G Championships in that time. |

I knew they no longer considered him committed but that didn't mean they were no longer pursuing him. The in home visit showed they still had interest. So offering another TE doesn't necessarily mean he's out of the picture does it? |

Pumped about Garnett, hoping we can get Wright as well and finish this class up strong. Great to see good things lining up for 2013, beyond Shane, with LTT and Wiggins. Sure wish we had more info on what's up with Pharoh Brown since the Mattison in home visit. |

like Ondre's over there stirring up trouble with ohio fans on twitter and I'm digging that about him!
Looks like he re-tweeted some cut from a UM fan to a ohio fan and then the shit storm started. |
6 years 16 weeks ago | I really |
hope we get Garnett, considering what he's said about UM in his most recent interview and how important academics are for him plus his desire to go to med school should bode well for us. |
6 years 16 weeks ago | Rivals |
has Armani Reeves listed 5'9", Scout has him 5'10" so does that mean he's somewhere in between or they're both off? Yuri Wright is listed by both at 6'2" and has a higher position ranking. http://rivals.yahoo.com/footballrecruiting/football/recruiting/player-Armani-Reeves-108051 |

would be on the low end. I just don't see UM dropping 3 vs. Bama, ND, Nebraska and ohio. 10-2 again with the possibility of going 11-1 if things really go well. |
6 years 17 weeks ago | Man |
I hope they lose enough talent/experience to make that true. |
6 years 17 weeks ago | Funny |
to think that many on this blog thought that a top 50 finish on D was highly unlikely let alone a top 16. |

Yuri looks like a better choice. He's 6'3" 180lbs and is ranked 57th nationally . Reeves is 5'9" 185lbs and is ranked 213th nationally. |
6 years 17 weeks ago | Nice improvement |
for Smot. He's up in every category over last year in a significant way. Not even half way through the season and he already has 87% of the rebounds, 55% of the assists, 67% of the blocks and 76% of the steals he had for all of last year. Additionally his FG% is up from 40% to 56% and his 3pt% is up from 38% to 55%. |

may not be commited but he's very interested in UM. |
6 years 17 weeks ago | That's true |
but if you're a kid with dreams of playing in the NFL you might be more impressed with a couple of Super Bowl rings. |
6 years 17 weeks ago | There are |
several ways to look at this. I think the most likely are you visit the schools you're most interested in first because you're excited about them and don't want to wait or you visit the school you're most interested in last so that when you're done you can commit on the spot. On the other hand Magnus is right you could over-analyze this thing to death like Vizzini in The Battle of Wits. |
