A comparison from 2008 onward. I'm not sure where he got the 2007 or earlier data from. I think Zoltan skews the results pretty significantly. As a reminder, these are Phil Steele rankings...
"Hokemon, gotta catch 'em all!" ...then urban dictionary told me it means something VERY different:
Ho ke mon gotta catch em all. Refers to the phrase in pokemon but in this case, is used to describe someone with many STD'S. First originated in the spame of one of the mightiest forums alive. This phrase is usually targeted at sluts and eamon holmes.
South endzone also has the John Thompson Buffalo stampede against Wisky... not quite as historical or elegant as the other plays, but it was certainly a turning point in that game and ignited the largest comeback in Michigan history if I'm not mistaken.
Edit: I think IndianaBlue beat me to it... +1 to you sir... well, just driving the point home I guess. Bringing back good memories and positive thoughts.
Basically, after the defensive team regains possession in their zone, they have to clear the ball to the offensive zone while maintaining possession. During this time, the team who was previously on offense tries to "ride" the team trying to clear the ball, attempting to force a turnover and a possible easy scoring chance (like a full court press in basketball). A 10 man ride would include all players on the field - including the goalie- making it more difficult for the other team to find an open man downfield to get the ball out of the defensive zone. Good teams can sometimes pick this apart, and this can result in an easy scoring opportunity for the team clearing the ball because the goalie has left the cage to cover an attackman. We used to get shredded back in high school trying to do this because our goalie was really slow.
This website actually explains it pretty well too: http://www.laxmagazine.com/tips/coaches/2008-09/images/coachpdfs/075LM0…
I know this is nitpicky and minor, but shouldn't C. Hagerup be W. Hagerup?
Jus' sayin.
Other than that, it's just scary to see the dominance of youth on the depth chart, especially in the secondary. It makes me nervous.
FWIW, Jason Fracassa's Grandpa is Al Fracassa - probably the most legendary high school coach in the state of Michigan. I'm not sure if this actually has anything to do with it, but the kid also did put up very impressive numbers.

Thanks, doc!
Anyone know of an online stream?
I might just be really confused, but shouldn't it be projected starters in italics, returning starters in bold (Pipkins and Miller are italicized)?
EDIT: or just make Pipkins and Miller bolded. My sadly low MGoPoint total prevents me from fixing this and any minor errors.

One of the first hits when you google "call the amber lamps"
I also couldn't believe that was one of the more common search queries.
I also like that...
"gardner white" has a bigger impact factor than "robinson"
and "buckets" is on there.
