I always do my best thinking in the bathroom |
| 16 weeks 10 hours ago | Schutt |
I'm going to speculate wildly and say he's including Tommy Schutt in that group. I presume it would have have been Mattison's (and Hoke's, of course) call on whether to go after him. They passed, despite his supposed interest and gaudy starrage. |

ever seen Aquaman and TomVH in the same place? |

I'd like to see a video interview from Tremendous. |
| 22 weeks 2 days ago | Close-ish loss to Duke on |
Close-ish loss to Duke on neutral court, loss to UVA (a better-than-expected team) on the road. Those will probably both be "good" losses later this year. We've taken care of business otherwise, including decent wins against Iowa St (should been a blowout), Oakland and Memphis. I don't think our resume is worse than Northern Iowa's or SDSU's... Regardless, we won't make a move in the real polls until we play at Indiana on Jan 5... |

Seth Davis doesn't have us in his Top 25 or as a team on the cusp. I do not understand. |
| 22 weeks 2 days ago | I agree that those two |
I agree that those two situations are different but I don't think Example 1 describes Hoke's policy. At least I'd be surprised if it did. Do we think Pharaoh Brown was free to come back from his Oregon visit (say, the following Monday or Tuesday) and say, "Coach Hoke, I checked out the other college/dealership and your offer is better, therefore I wish to remain committed/buy the car at the price we discussed." My understanding is Hoke would not have allowed him to recommit so easily. Otherwise, Hoke's rule would have zero teeth, and commits would visit other places, roll the dice that no other player would commit in that 48 hour span, and re-commit on Monday. I think Sam Webb discussed this last week and said something to the effect of, "If Pharaoh Brown is allowed back in this class (at least, without serious reflection by the Michigan coaches), the other members who wanted to take visits but didn't (e.g., Richardson) are going to be a bit miffed." I don't think Sam said "miffed" but you get my point. |

Obviously, the column is typical Rosenberg... sensationalist, conclusory, and not all that well written. THAT SAID, I think we're overstating how much the column is about Floyd Landis' accusations and their effect on Lance's guilt/innocence. The column seems to be more about how Floyd is just the latest in a loooong line of people to accuse Lance of doping. You don't have to believe Floyd 100% to put his accusations (and that's all they are -- unsubstantiated allegations) on the scale and give them whatever weight you see fit... But, in all honesty, I might just be saying this because if you put a gun to my head and asked me if Armstrong took PEDs, my answer would be an unequivocal, "Yes." Too dirty a sport, too dominant an athlete, too many accusations... smoke, fire, etc. |

Honestly, I don't know. I'm not sure a line can be drawn. Does any criminal conduct automatically preclude you from playing for Michigan? Hmm... I would say no. If you were booked for "simple battery" because of a schoolyard fight that got out of hand, I don't think you're per se S.O.L. A little marijuana possession at your buddy's house? A bit more troubling than the fight (because everybody knows that's illegal) but probably not something to bar you from Schembechler Hall. When you start getting into felony-type stuff though I get leery... and when there are multiple occurrences, I get even more leery. We know that Demar admitted to home invasion, actually came face to face with the homeowner (a scary scene for the owner, I'd imagine) and took off running (which was better than a Sean Taylor-like alternative, obviously... but still, not good). I just think that what we know of his actions puts him beyond the pale... which isn't to say he should do life w/o parole... i just don't think he should be suiting up for the maize n' blue... aand that said, I wish him all the best and will be rooting for him like crazy. Not sure if that makes me a hypocrite but I definitely don't want him to fail... so... I guess that means I want him to succeed! |
