30 weeks 15 hours ago	I think he's doing it just to spite Michigan	but nevertheless, if he does end up there it would be a complete George Costanza move.  George held out for less money when he and Jerry were pitching a sitcom pilot.  Here, if Dawson goes from Michigan to MSU that can only be catergorized as a downgrade.
30 weeks 1 day ago	Do you still think M will match last year's TOM?	I know you predicted they would exceed it by 1, but do you think they will even tie given where they're currently at?  If they end up tied I think we're in Pasadena on January 1. Also, thanks for your weekly posts.
43 weeks 3 days ago	Don't use google, use the umich.edu directory	and you will find your answer.   https://mcommunity.umich.edu/#profile:frankdc
48 weeks 1 day ago	Well . . .	if Brock Huard says so, then I guess that settles it.  Up next, an article where Bobby Higginson says Carol Hutchins could manage in the majors.  They're running out of stuff to print this summer.
51 weeks 13 hours ago	The incident was April 7 yet he was allowed to go to the SEALs	training last week.  Either the coaches knew nothing about it or they don't think this amounts to much.
1 year 7 weeks ago	To me it's not about breaking some actual rule	It's about the athletic director for another school giving unsolicited advice to an athlete from his school's archrival.  Forget that the "advice" concerned the athlete's decision whether to go pro.  It's just stupid.  He has no business talking to another school's players unsolicited.  If he wants to give advice, maybe he should start by advising his basketball team not to rape people and advising his football players not to 1) lead a mob attack in a dorm against other students, or 2) violently attack other athletes at your own school. But what do I know, I'm just some guy on the internet.
1 year 8 weeks ago	Based on the fact that we parted ways with O'Daniel	I'm going to wager at least one of the two will be a linebacker (Gedeon or Levenberry).  As for the second, I'll go with Isaac.
1 year 11 weeks ago	Is it really?	they went to the same school as each other and I believe know each other.  Does the fact that Roy is on the team mean he can't say anything about any recruits, even those he knew before he ever set foot on Michigan's campus?  What if his brother commited to Michigan?  Would Roy be forbidden from tweeting about that?
1 year 15 weeks ago	So are you accusing him of posting useless info	or quality info?  Because your post does not make it clear.
1 year 16 weeks ago	Thanks	I am particularly interested in Taco Carlton as he seems like a kid who could drop for Michigan at any moment - perhahps on his upcoming unofficial visit.  I get the sense he will be a low 4-star/ high 3-star type.  Probably bigger fish out there, but you can't quantify the fact that he's a kid from a Ohio that desperately wants to go to Michigan.  That always counts for something in my book.
1 year 16 weeks ago	Any other M recruits	of note on the list?
1 year 16 weeks ago	Well that would be quite the magic trick	since he hasn't visited (at least not officially) and he just officially visited to Ohio this past weekend.
1 year 18 weeks ago	T-Rich is #224	he's small, but don't overlook him.
1 year 22 weeks ago	Hahahahahaha	Hoke leaving at the NFL is the TOP of every Michigan fan's list of worst fears.
1 year 24 weeks ago	It's very interesting because Molk was 1st Team All Big 10	as voted by the coaches, and the offensive lineman of the year.  In contrast, Konz was not even second team all Big 10 according to the coaches - he was relegated to honorable mention.  The media vote Konz 1st team all big 10 with Molk on the second team.
1 year 27 weeks ago	Even if the police buried it . . .	Joe, as the authority figure at Penn State, could have booted Sandusky from the football facility.  Permenantly.  Instead, with (at least) two incidents and allegations (2002 and 1999), Sandusky was allowed to continue using the PSU facilities with impugnity.
1 year 27 weeks ago	Convenient timing	typical OSU.
1 year 28 weeks ago	You hate to see him go this way?	I realize he has accomplished a lot in his career, but the top bullet on his resume is now and forever his facilitation of a serial child rapist arguably since 1999, and without question since 2002.  He's lucky he's not going to jail.  Further, keep in mind that Joe knew about the grand jury investigation - which occurred long before the season opener.  He could have retired then.  Heck, he could have retired back in 2008/2009 when the sharks supposedly began circliing on the Sandusky investigation.  But he stayed on, because he wasn't at 409 yet.
1 year 29 weeks ago	Yeah that seems pretty ridiculous	wonder what the story is there.
1 year 29 weeks ago	I didn't notice Purdue jumping the count at all	and it did look like Molk did some things differently.  From today's presser, though, it sounds like something they are still focusing on.
1 year 29 weeks ago	Re: Frank Clark's play	He had one major gaffe late in the game when Purdue ran a read option.  He bit completely and had no idea where the ball was, which resulted in a HUGE gain for Purdue.  I'm sure he'll get a coaching moment or two out of that play, but he has potential.
1 year 32 weeks ago	Need to get runs there	our 3, 4, 5 hitters don't even get it out of the infield with 2 runners on and no outs.  Infield fly rule, weak dribbler to first, weak dribbler to pitcher.
1 year 32 weeks ago	Cabrera needs to pick it up	finally got him up with some guys on and he hits a weak ground out to first.  Come on Miggy.  Pick it up.
1 year 33 weeks ago	This is absolutely awesome	it's working great for me.  Thanks for your hard work.
1 year 34 weeks ago	Question for you	I realize this is only four games in so, as you said, the data still has a lot of volatility.  But in your experience, have you ever had games where the numbers stated a team had a 100% chance of winning, but then lost?  Just curious after reading the predictions for the rest of the season.  Thanks and very interesting stuff as usual.
1 year 35 weeks ago	Hopefully we stay #1	Turnovers and turnover margin was a HUGE problem the last few years.  I don't think you can understate it.  In addition to opponent's making plays, we often just gave them the ball like ND did for us this year.  Plus our defense wasn't creating turnovers.  This year they are.  Against EMU, for example, the forced fumble and the INT were great plays by our defense.  Hopefully this continues well into Big 10 season.
1 year 35 weeks ago	Big 10 is down this year	Wisconsin is the clear #1, but if you look at that ballot Michigan has a chance to make some things happen.  Everyone is beatable.
1 year 36 weeks ago	No way Wyatt will be a DT in college	He plays DT at times in high school, but he's only 255 right now and reports are that he is not nearly as good at DT as he is at other positions..  He's going to have to gain some serious weight to play DT at the next level.  It's far more likely, IMO, that he will play RB, LB, or DE.
1 year 38 weeks ago	Never mind!	Never mind!
1 year 38 weeks ago	New Illinois official alumni bar to add	Please add Jack's, 2856 N. Southport, Chicago, IL 60657.  It is one of the official alumni bars in Chicago this season.  Thanks. Link: http://www.jackschicago.com/   Also, please be advised that Mad River has defected and is now an MSU Bar.  So please remove Mad River as an Illinois location and let us never speak of that establishment again!
