Still laughing about that reference.  Brilliant.

aspects of Gallon's game is Gallon himself.  The guy is stout.  Most mention him being only 5'8, but he's a thick 5'8.  Cornerbacks that he just doesn't zip around aren't able to knock him off his routes because he strong enough to absorb the jam and continue on his way.

Worthy of the #1?  If he was running out of the tunnel wearing it for the opener, would not have a problem with that.

Are we really "beating" staee for recruits? I don't think so, since that would mean state was actually some competition for a recruit.

"That's never happened before."

Clearly rcmb has members that are only 4 or 5 years old with no knowledge of pre-2008 recruiting.

Even if this poster is being sarcastic, it's still hillarious.

Welcome aboard Mr. Marshall! 

an undefeated season and counting the minutes to the next Saturday.  Maybe hit a local watering hole,  watch state fans crash and burn during their loss, have a few laughs.

Mathews will always have that play, and a degree of course.

And Crable.  What a beast he was during his senior year in 2007!  90 tackles with 28.5 TFL.  He was everywhere that year.  In my opinion, he was involved in a couple of images from the great 2006 season that will forever be burned into my brain.  

Image #1

What a glorious day that was.  When Quinn finally did get up, he probably couldn't see.  And that was partially due to a giant pelt of sod rammed into to his facemask.

The other image (I will not provide picture because of the never-healing wound) is him being called for one of the worst late-hit calls in history on Troy "Duffel Bag O' Cash" Smith in The Game of the century.

Congrats to both on graduating.  HAIL!

only player from MIssissippi (Holly Springs) that I can recall.  Sure there are more.

Welcome aboard Mr. Jones.

Hart still looking solid!

In regards to the question, pretty hard to reach the open field without breaking through some tackles first.  Love both, but Hoard- style gets my vote.  Meat grinding and Molar rattling in 2013!

does is work hard, and be genuine.  What the university is and offers speaks for itself.  A great recipe for success for the coaches and the university.  Hail!  

Two golden crescents and four hash marks.  Will the Burger King napkin this design was submitted to the NCAA  on be kept for posterity?

Eye of Sauron?  Anybody?  Sauron CoFoPoff?

game must be a huge relief to the 7 fans who attend that game. 

Hello College Gameday!

we can count on Delany and the university presidents to make decisions and sweeping changes that will please all fanbases and not embarrass the conference on a national level.

more computer skills than I (if I had any, I'd do it myself) add a couple of burning couches in the background?

Would be suitable for framing then.

GB.  People running into the backs of their own linemen 2 yards in the backfield is called "Play # 1" in Bollman's 1-page offensive playbook.

Thanks for posting.

Makes you wonder though.  How out-of-shape must some of the recruits been for Fritz to have to send this out in advance?  No doubt it was for the recruits benefit and Crisler wanting to see them perform well, but wow.  Pretty detailed list of requirements.  

Diving onto the ground, landing on your chest?  I would break every bone on the front of my body.

Other than the events in Boston (in our thoughts and prayers), this has been a pretty good start to the week.  Harris committing and now season tickets.  Can't wait.

we'll be knee-deep in whiskey and hookers.

another Rich Rod conspiracy at work here.

I've never been on the site enough over the years to notice how often it is updated.  And it would be nice to pour over Hoke's numbers in the future.  Hopefully, it will be updated soon.

Maybe there is a new tab for Hoke teams.  Possibly listed as:  Epic Finger Pointing Era, Return of Manball, or The Short-Sleeved Years.

Also, please forgive me for being an unlearned dolt, but who is the Bentley of the Bentley Historical Library?

awarded the Presidential Medal of Freedom.  As a Lion for his entire, long career, he was loyal and productive during some of the worst teams in NFL history.  May he enjoy a well-earned retirement.

Time for the Lions to draft another kicker for the long haul.  We've had only 2 for the last 33 years (Eddie Murray, Hanson).

This horrible disease can no longer harm you.  Condolences to his familiy.

Chatster, thanks for this great video.  Great review to a great movie. 

go on to become a NBA lottery pick, I forsee a great career at Michigan.  Will be a fan favorite, play with tremendous heart and be a thorn in the side of B1G opponents for 3 more years.  Glad Beilein can see potential where 98% of others cannot.

Amadeo looks like the sad, unforgiving truth- that he will not be in Ann Arbor, but the Armpit of the Midwest for 3 more years- is setting in.  

discoveries and research in the the field of Tournament Champion Picks will be celebrated for generations to come.  Einstein who?!?

By the way, how about this week's Powerball numbers?  I'll give you a 20% cut.

GO BLUE!!!

big money now but is still an incredible value.  He could be paid this as a recruiter alone and would still be worth every penny.

Some of the fine print on this contract:

- Can recruit the Bahamas whenever he deems it necessary.

- Unquestioned use of David Brandon's private jet.

- Unquestioned use of David Brandon's office bathroom.

- Told Fritz Crisler's seat number.

- Super-awesome horseshoe pits intalled in south end zone.

- Allowed to tailgate up to 5 minutes before kickoff.

- Weekly calling of Urban Meyer telling him he faked every defensive call in Florida.

great story and pictures.  My grandfather was a tail gunner on a B-24 during WWII.  By the time he turned 19, he had flown over 50 missions over Europe.  He's been gone over 30 years now.  Sure miss him.

Does anyone know of a website or location I could do some research on what planes he flew in or what men he served with?  Haven't had much luck getting info on this.  Thanks.

I will be only a financial donor in the office bracket challenge.  Hoyas in the finals on one sheet, and New Mexico in the Final Four on my other.  OUCH.  Silver lining:  All focus now centered on Michigan advancing since bracket sheets are now fish wrap.  GO BLUE!!!

early with a trailer full of old couches for sale.  Will charge sparties double after their game.  Should make a small fortune.

As a rule, Michigan is the only team I root for to win.  If seeing the B1G do well is desired as well, root for Valpo to lose.  Or for Iona to lose.  Never allow the words "I want state to win", or "I hope ohio state wins" to be uttered.

a mirage.  September is still 5+ months away.  Still great to see this.  Thanks for the feed.

Are the recruits that are in town able to watch this?  Not sure if there are rules about it.  

when young people can look back and see the error of their ways then turn their life around for the better (hopefully much better in AA).

Seems strange that Dantonio and Bollman were not able to convince Drake that he would be the centerpiece of an offensive juggernaut in east lansing.  

shining above Nik.  I bet it's more than a shooting star.

Here's to hoping the boys make the cover again in about a month.

But first, may Crisler run red with Hoosier blood tomorrow.  Long overdue to break out from these month-long doldrums with a resounding beatdown.  GO BLUE!!!

Wormley is to be commended.

the time I needed back then! 

Who am I kidding- that's all the time I need now!

Saban down makes him 1 for 3 in the last few years against Michigan commits.

Good guys:  Poggi and Ferns

Led astray:   Dee Hart

Probably more I just can't remember.

and my barber gave me a fifth of Du Bouchett Blackberry Brandy.  Enjoying on the rocks.  Watching the Dark Knight Rises.  Slow evening.  Nice.  Great barber.

for their first win (conference) makes me nervous.  But after the usual slow start, Burke, THJ and Morgan lead the way in a strong team win.

UM   81

PSU 70

Junior Hemingway with the game-winning 2 point conversion.

Memories.

Hollis:  "I watched many different angles..."

Izzo:  "But I didn't appreciate the way it was handled."

This must qualify as front page news in east lansing.  Hillarious.  Surely Hollis is pressing the NCAA to investigate.

read into McDowell's entire family visiting with him?  

a massive stadium and has been enjoyed by many, but I don't believe that means it is for anytlhing and everyone.  Nothing against the WWE, but Yost, Bo and even marketing master  Don Canham would frown on this.  Just my opinion.

Now that little brother has exposed the secret agreement between the entire national media and the Michigan basketball team, we should prepare for a return to "truthful and fair" coverage.

Getting ready to salute his mother behing the bench.

found out the real reason behind the melting of the polar ice cap. 

HOW DARE YOU MAKE SUCH ACCUSATIONS!  BRIEFCASES FULL OF CASH!?  LURING YOUNG MEN WITH SOUTHERN BELLES!?  OPTIONAL ACADEMICS!?

 CERTAINLY NOT AT AN SEC SCHOOL!  

Thad Matta catches one in his pie-hole tomorrow.  

proper protocol here.  First, pick the Michigan decal, plate or emblem of your liking- then find a vehicle that will properly display said decal, plate or emblem. 

Cheers!

regrets.  I cannot recall him ever complaining or lamenting publicly that he never won a national championship.  People who put their best into all they do, and do it honestly are content with whatever the outcome is.  For more than 2 decades as our coach- and until his passing- I believe Bo enjoyed well-earned contentment.

Can't wait for the return of more MEAT GRINDING & MOLAR RATTLIN'.

the task at hand today, but should we win, we should move into the #1 spot.  Having that bullseye on your back, it can be just another pressure / burden for a team to bear.  But as tough as the conference is this year, I believe it doesn't even matter.  Whether you're ranked #1 or #100, every Big Ten game is a bare-knuckle slugfest.  Bring on the #1 ranking, step into the ring and try to take it from us.

... and no, Mr. Groce.  I do not want to check out your selection of used mini-vans.

seniors as collegians.  Most have respresented Michigan well over the years.  Best of luck to all of them in whatever they do from here on out.  

I believe Gholston was befriended with the intention of taking him out into the middle of the Arizona desert to be roundly beaten and left there.

knowing a great deal about this, but is there an actual award ( $$$ and or trophy ) for winning, or just bragging rights?

Also, nice picture of Tressel doing yard work.

to his success with predictions:  Magic 8 Ball.

" Mentioned Long, Jansen and Hutchinson among others..."

Future Michigan linemen will state:

" Mentioned Long, Jansen, Hutchinson and Lewan among others..."

Lewan will take his rightful place among these Michigan legends.

Already can't wait for fall.

Feels so good to have the basketball back to this level!!!  From this crusty Michigan man- who can remember back to some good years with the likes of Tarpley, Grant, Joubert & co.- this is fun!  Beilein and his staff's patience and hard work are coming to fruition.  Enjoying the ride!!!  GO BLUE!!!

Dantonio's requirements for new DC candidates:

-  must respond well to eternal scowling

- can wash Lord Izzo's car

- strong knowledge of area correctional facilities

- strive for consistent mediocrity

- recruit well in Canada 

- can bring Rich Rod back to Michigan
