No, you are not alone, and…

No, you are not alone, and yes, I agree with everything you said and am doing this.  Season ticket holder for 46 years, not renewing (my sister is considering taking the tickets).

All of the reasons you mention, plus two more:

  • I can't stand the stadium experience anymore. The DJ, MC, and constant noise, even during timeouts, makes it difficult to even have a conversation. A couple of years ago, the alumni band (which was not allowed to take the field during a halftime show focused on inclusion), was stepped on by the piped-in music every time they tried to play. Tired of going to the games and getting angry about this. After the Rose Bowl, Brian wrote about how refreshing that stadium experience was, and I couldn't agree more.
  • We live 4 hours away from AA. An afternoon game generally requires an overnight stay, and a night game requires even more advance planning.  I can't wait for the week before to know what time the game is.

The 2023 season was epic, and like Jim Harbaugh, I'll always love Michigan, but taking this opportunity to check out.

I don't hear Harbaugh blaming anyone.

Then why did they try to capitulate and raise the compensation at the last minute?

He also said numerous times that he'd stay at Michigan "as long as they'll have me."

So you're more likely to trust the rando guy below, who says he is "90-95% certain" that Harbaugh was gone anyway?  At least we know JUB HAS sources.

Not sure what a "permeable" AD is, but Warde needs to go.  Let's face it, we haven't had a good (or even qualified) AD in at least 30 years.

Easy. Fire Warde. Offer the job to Harbaugh, a la Bo. If Jim doesn't want it, let Jim help pick Warde's replacement.

I'm not going to neg you but I will disagree. I can't watch. The turnovers, the lack of team play, the lack of D.  It's like watching a bad NBA team.

Correct. And if Georgia wins, they will choose the Sugar Bowl, so we still end up in the Rose.  Beat Iowa!

Completely unsubstantiated, but I have heard that he has already told the coaches he intends to be back next year.

I hate the idea of 18 teams, no divisions, and a championship game that could be a rematch from earlier in the season anyway.

Anyone know how much notice is required to leave?

A "no ruling" is actually a de facto denial of the motion, meaning the judge determined no irreparable harm to the plaintiffs by not ruling by the deadline.

I don't see anything wrong…

I don't see anything wrong with what he said at all.  They're not calling plays for the WRs.  Ask whoever is calling the plays.

Regarding officiating, how…

Regarding officiating, how do you review a spot and still get it wrong?  It's right there on the screen in front of you!

Entire Peacock broadcast was…

Entire Peacock broadcast was full of errors. No analysis of the overturned interception, leaving viewers to figure it out for themselves.  Missed an entire offensive play showing footage of Kalel's jump pass last year at OSU.  Poor camera work.  I like Tirico, but this was amateur hour.

If Elon Musk is running Twitter into the ground, then it will be the first and only of his many ventures that will have failed.  My advice for anyone is do not bet against Elon Musk.

Wise to teach your children …

Wise to teach your children - even the Great Lakes can be dangerous.  There are many drownings from dangerous surf conditions along Lake Michigan.

However there were no rip currents present when Ryan drowned, and beach conditions were yellow flag, meaning moderate.  The reporting is, unfortunately, and like a lot of reporting these days, sensationalism.

RIP Ryan Mallett.

C'mon, Nebraska was (and is)…

C'mon, Nebraska was (and is) so far below the rest of the conference academically that it was and is clear that academics were overlooked at the time of their admission.

That does not change the fact that the Big Ten knew or should have known they would be expelled.

And by the way, the late Jim…

And by the way, the late Jim Brown literally transformed lacrosse in the late 1950s at Syracuse.  I'm pretty sure he wasn't a billionaire's kid.

Thanks for the warning, I…

Thanks for the warning, I will now not read the Sam Zell thread.  Speaking ill of the dead is the lowest of low class.

This is not technically true…

This is not technically true.  Yes, Nebraska applied for Big Ten membership in 2010, one year before they were expelled by the AAU in 2011.  However, their admission to the Big Ten was not effective until 2012.  Furthermore, there had been active discussion of the expulsion for years prior, so the Big Ten knew there was a good chance they were admitting a school that did not meet the AAU standards, and then even after the expulsion, allowed Nebraska to join anyway.
