These after 9pm starts are brutal.  Lots of coffee consumption.  

5 weeks 2 days ago Ahhhhhh!

Swag Overdose!!!!

5 weeks 3 days ago Unbelievable

And then they review the play for a flagrant foul. What yet it’s still a foul on the defense of player? It makes no sense.

5 weeks 3 days ago Commercials

So many commercials.....!!

5 weeks 3 days ago Question

If one of our players were to say, pull off Grays hair band, would that result in a technical foul?. Just curious... might be worth exploring...

5 weeks 3 days ago Houston cheerleaders too close to mic

Already driving me mad. That is all.



Go Blue!

5 weeks 5 days ago A few nice dunks!

Some great WIDE OPEN passes contributing to Matthew's success. 

5 weeks 5 days ago Let's GO!

Starting to turn things around.  Sloppy start, but its becoming obvious Montana is no match once we clean things up and play our game.  Our deep bench (did I just type that?) compared to their bench will likely play a factor given the early fouls.   

 

Also; shout out to the UM (female) fan with the crazy set of lungs!  Whomever you are,I can hear you loud and clear on tbs.  

5 weeks 6 days ago University Vehicle

Odd; the vehicle he ws driving was registered as a University vehicle... 

7 weeks 3 days ago Lack of TV coverage frustrating

I was fortunate to be at the game last night; however, the lack of TV coverage has been very frustrating.  I remember way back when the BTN was introduced many were optimism it would result in additional hockey coverage.  This year has been a disapointment as only a handful of games have been covered.  

 

Also, an observation from last night's game.  I know it is spring break, but the Children of Yost section put forth a valiant effort with many students noticeably still out of town.  Hopefully they will gain some troops today as students return to campus.  The North end-zone was maybe half full.  If you are able to go to tonights game, tickets are still available and I'm sure the game will be exciting as these two teams match up well.  

7 weeks 5 days ago Ticket Availability & Spring Break

This week is Spring Break so tickets are still available for the game.  I'm hoping we still have some students (Children of Yost) who will make Yost an intimidating place to play. 

 

Go Blue! 

9 weeks 4 days ago So this is not a joke?

I suppose this is not all that surprising given the current state of affairs in EL. I wonder if there was a deadline by which to execute this most recent extension or if the decision makers could have potentially postponed the vote.  The optics are certainly not optimal with this news.

1 year 28 weeks ago 86

In the sixth game of the season, Michigan defeated Ohio State 86–0 in Ann Arbor on October 25, 1902. The game was played in front of a crowd of 6,000 (including 2,000 from Columbus), "the largest crowd ever gathered at Ferry Field." Michigan scored 45 points in the first half and 41 points in the second half.

1 year 28 weeks ago I can't be the only one thinking about this...

These refs are pretty hesitant to call an obvious TD a TD.  Yeesh.  

1 year 28 weeks ago Highlight reel

I feel like this is one long highlight reel for Michigan.  Big play after big play after big play.  

 

I love the playcalling.  You think Harbaigh will give Evans a shot at the TD after the long run... nope, Hill up the gut.  

 

Kicking the extra point up four scores... nope, fake it.

2 years 9 weeks ago Still at the office, so not drinking yet...

TV switched from CNBC to ESPN (PTI).  Wow Wilbon just went off on Harbaugh regarding the spring practice and "team mom."  Add him to the horseface list... 

2 years 15 weeks ago Interesting statistic

Did I just see that we've now won 15 out of the last 19 games against msu? Very nice.

2 years 16 weeks ago Should be a good game...

Still not a fan of it being on a Monday night.

2 years 18 weeks ago Thanks for the summary

I agree, Didier Drogba was fun to watch.  Some of the elder statesmen leaving the team recently may have aided in things getting out of hand (Drogba, Cech for example were locker room leaders).  At least we can watch Drogba tear it up in the MLS...

Good matchup for the home opener.

2 years 31 weeks ago Agree

He is terrible. Might have watch on mute.

2 years 33 weeks ago I agree, in general

I agree with your thoughts in general.  However, there is no way a Hoke led offense would have scored that second touchdown.  

 

I felt that Harbaugh had the team well organized, which is a large improvement.  He played with the cards he was dealt.  I'm still disappointed with the performance; however, the more I reflect on the game overall, I remain optomistic.

3 years 3 weeks ago Woman with Pom poms behind msu bench

I'm not even at the game and she is annoying me. Sit down!

3 years 3 weeks ago Spot on with both of your comments

I've run both Detroit (3x) and Bayshore (4x). Detroit is a nice run the first time you do it, mainly for the international aspect. Running over the bridge is a unique experience... It is still dark out so you see the city lights and there is a stiff breeze. There are not many spectators for much of the race; however, the course takes you throughout the city and small neighborhoods which can be interesting.

3 years 22 weeks ago WR/DB Matchup

WR Funchess, at 6'5, better take advantage of DB Likely, who stands at a whopping 5'7. 

3 years 22 weeks ago Correct

I meant the southern end of the east side.  Thanks for the clarification.  

3 years 22 weeks ago They ought to

They ought to put the student seating back along the glass along the entire south side of the rink as it used to be. They took all of that away in the last round of renovations, and for what, a few photographers? In return, there is now room for only a handful of students along the glass, which makes the historically most rambunctious part of the student section further away from the away bench and playing surface. I don't mind the improvements along the concourse and to the scoreboard, but everything else they did took away from Yost being unique and special. I mean, a goal horn? I never thought I'd see the day...

3 years 23 weeks ago Well done

Great post.  I expect this will gererate a lot of needed conversations and coverage.  

3 years 24 weeks ago What happens if

What happens if we get Harbaugh... We have a limited supply of scholarships available and demand would likely be high. Do you think he would consider a player who de-committed?

3 years 36 weeks ago Thank you for the embed

The mgoblue website is frustrating.  No matter the device (iPad, iPhone, PC) the videos never play without glitches.  I end up watching the opening beef jerkey commercials five times in order to get through the 2 minute video.

3 years 44 weeks ago These last five minutes should be highly entertaining.

This second half has been fantastic.

4 years 4 weeks ago I was there as well

I was there as well and enjoyed what Coach Nussmeier had to say.  His response to the difference in recruiting between the Big Ten and the SEC was pretty funny.  He also said his ultimate goal is to be a head coach with the caveat that he would always rather be the OC of a champion than the HC of a mediocre team.  Overall, I left optimistic with the direction the offense appears to be heading.

6 years 51 weeks ago Career day and professional certification

Try to go to as many career days as possible at your school.  I'm not familiar with UW so I'm not sure if the Big 4 recruit there.  I know UofM may be an exception(as it is a "high proprity" or "target school"), but all of the accounting firms recruit here at the career days.  Also, given your degree I would try to get lincensed if I were you (CPA).  Make sure you have the 150 hours necessary to sit for the exam.  You will be a much more attractive candidate with a CPA.  That certification also opens a lot of doors in other related fields.

Red needs to be sent out in style.... we must win a National Championship for that great man.  SOON. 

7 years 2 weeks ago Refs ugh

Terrible terrible refs tonight.  First a home game for the NC...AND the refs in your back pocket???  Come on...

7 years 2 weeks ago Sooo

That goal that we scored in the first period sure would be nice to have now... you know, the one that was in the net before the whistle was blown.  I'm so disappointed with the officiating in this game.  It sure would be nice to have a National Title game at Yost.  

Must be nice to have home ice for the National Title game.... not to mention home ice referees.  What was it, nine power plays to two???  

7 years 5 weeks ago Men's wrestling - WSJ

This is off topic, but I found it inspirational and worth sharing.  Anthony Robles, a wrestler from ASU who was born without one of his legs just won the NCAA championship for his weight division.  Just goes to show that anything is possible if you really put your mind to it.

7 years 5 weeks ago These refs are terrible

Both teams in the double bonus? Let them play!

7 years 5 weeks ago Awesome

Great accomplishment going into halftime with the lead.  No Hardaway, no Morgan, and we still have the lead!?!?!  Wow.  

7 years 5 weeks ago What?!?

Enough with the "tripping" foul calls.....

7 years 5 weeks ago 189

JUST WIN.

7 years 6 weeks ago Oh boy

Wonder how long they will debate if today's game will exceed the football games total points scored...

7 years 6 weeks ago No maize jerseys?

That is somewhat surprising.

7 years 7 weeks ago Love the early morning updates

Thank you for all of this great information, as usual! 

7 years 8 weeks ago I'm worried about this too

Anyone here a regular in the student section?  If so, do you know if many of your fellow maize ragers will be at the game or in Cancun?

Wow, there is a lot of height on that board.  The shortest guy offered on the OL is 6'5"!!

7 years 10 weeks ago A good read

I saw the article this morning.  It is an interesting read.  The article made me want to visit these other rinks to see what they are all about.  Yost will always be #1 for me.   

7 years 13 weeks ago Thank you

Thank you

7 years 13 weeks ago Sam Webb

This morning Sam Webb said he was getting a gut feeling on this one....

7 years 13 weeks ago Recruits

There were a lot of football recruits at the basketball game.  DB, the OC, and DC were all in attendance.  Didn't see Hoke though.  

7 years 13 weeks ago I'm right there with you Magnus

I have frequent contact with a recent graduated Michigan RB, one who has worked out with Cox (and Barwis).  At the start of this past season I asked him who the most talented RB was, and he immediately responded Mike Cox.  Howeva.......  he did say that Cox had some issues when it came to learning the playbook.... I really hope he gets more chances to prove his ability this season.  I like what I have seen from him thus far.

7 years 13 weeks ago Indiana?

Doesn't Indiana have a pretty good club team... and is thinking about becoming varsity?I thought I remembered reading something about that.

7 years 14 weeks ago thank you

Thank you, kind sir.

7 years 14 weeks ago in Ann Arbor, what channel?

I have comcast, what channel # is the game on? Sounds like we are doing the usual routine... Sluggish on Friday, awesome on Saturday. Thanks in advance.

7 years 15 weeks ago what comcast chanel is that?

I'm in ann arbor, what comcast channel is that?

7 years 16 weeks ago Earnings calls

Having had to listen to many of DB's quarterly and yearly earnings calls for my job, one thing in particular about what he has said in those calls sticks out to me...  DB has consistently stated he is a marketing guy.  Having attended the Big Chill, like many of you, we have all seen the type of shows DB is capable of organizing.  While none of us know for sure what is going to happen in the coming weeks, my bet is that there will be some type of fireworks involved and that any message/decision relayed will have carefully considered the PR/media buzz that will be created.  Whomever the coach is next year, lets all continue to support the buys in blue.     

7 years 16 weeks ago Good game, great win

Even my non-hockey family/friends were into this game.  Also an important win for the pairwise.  With some big weekends coming up,hopefully we can keep up the momentum.

7 years 19 weeks ago Don't forget...

Don't forget, men's soccer!

7 years 19 weeks ago Yesss

I always wanted one of those maize silk-like Nike jerseys that we wore back in the 96 and 98 years.  I would really like a #9 Brendan Morrison jersey..... sigh...

7 years 19 weeks ago Official list

Can someone compile a list of the "official" current chants?  That way, if we can all print off copies, those around us will have a clue.  Heck, I'd be willing to print off a ton at work, carry them into the stadium, and tell people to take one and pass it on.  

 

GO BLUE!

7 years 19 weeks ago Adidas

Our game day jerseys are Adidas branded...

7 years 20 weeks ago " MSU sent tickets back

" MSU sent tickets back because they didn't sell them, it should be 90-95% Michigan fans."

Wow, that is pathetic.  They couldn't sell tickets to this?  I have 40 people in my group, and I can't wait for Saturday!  GO BLUE!

7 years 21 weeks ago Well that went well

Like the win, Go Blue!

7 years 22 weeks ago I'm with you Brian

This offense is good, and it isn't going to get worse anytime soon.  Think if DG makes the type of leap DR made from year 1 to year 2.... Think if DR continues to improve this off season.  There is no way this offense gets worse in the next few years, especially with the talent we have coming in for this recruiting class.  This offense could go from scary to, I dunno, extremely super duper scary for opposing teams.  I will continue to support The Team The Team The Team..... and the head coach, Rich Rodriguez, is a part of The Team.  I have hope the D will improve as they age.  I'm with Brian... I'm getting really sick of arguing against the nay-sayers.   Sure, I want things to be better.  At this point in time, keeping RR seems like the thing to do.  I don't want to have to watch another system switch and another two more years of transition.  For now, I retain my hope and high expectations for the future.  Ok, back to work, I've said my piece.  

7 years 22 weeks ago 6-2

Great pass from Rust to Lynch.  12:19 to go.

7 years 22 weeks ago Grrrrr, weak sauce

Howeva, given some of the lucky goals we have scored lately, a lucky goal against us doesn't bother me when we still have a 4-2 lead.   (For those not watching, the puck had a freaky deflection/bounce off the boards straight to a LSSU player in the slot)

7 years 22 weeks ago 4-1 with 51 second left

7 years 22 weeks ago 3-1 good guys with 2:00 left in the 1st

7 years 23 weeks ago Nice!

I like our chances against either one of those two Floridian teams, especially at home.  Right now the forecast has a high of 51, a little warm for November, but anything can happen weather-wise in Michigan.  Go Blue!

7 years 25 weeks ago On a side note:

Michigan beat msu is soccer 3-2 in OT

Michigan hockey also beat Ferris 3-2..... so yay?

7 years 26 weeks ago game over?

The game can't be over already, so what's the score? At 4-0 in the second period, this is a disappointing game thus far. I'm looking for an update fellas.

7 years 27 weeks ago yikes

Was just punched by a stewardess on my flight who, once she saw my UofM shirt, asked who we were playing, not knowing it was UofM vs Iowa week... Eek electronics off! Hope my flight goes quickly so I can make it back in time for part of the game! Go Blue!

7 years 27 weeks ago nice to hear the support

I agree with some of the sentiment that DB may have other motivations. Howeva...having worked with DB I have to say he is a man of his word. He is the AD for 5 years, and I would count on him for those 5 years, unless we hear of an extension of course, everything said, DB has M in his best interest, rest assured. I would not count on any career movements any earlier than his current contract.

7 years 27 weeks ago Ugh

Those comments sound pretty bleak. Hopefully some of the new guys break out and surprise us.

7 years 27 weeks ago Awesome

Thanks for the updates. Two solid wins tonight.

7 years 27 weeks ago any score update?

Out of the country and only have access to my Blackberry. Also, any score on the mens soccer game tonight? Mgoblue isn't showing anything to me. Thanks, Go Blue!

7 years 30 weeks ago Yesssss

So excited for this season.  Can't wait to go to Yost!

7 years 30 weeks ago Now the season begins

Saw a lot of good things today... but the real test now begins.  I'm trying not to get too ahead of myself,especially seeing how the quality of the teams we have beaten thus far is less stellar now than it was at the beginning of the year.  Both ND and BG are now 1-3, and UConn is 2-2, so I hope the team will continue to step up.  The most important game of the year is always the next game, less go beat those Hoosiers.  GO BLUE! 

7 years 32 weeks ago So happy

Playing catch up on my reading the blog, but man oh man, I am ever so happy right now.  I'm gitty about this team's potential and am loving how we have come out of the gates this year.  GO BLUE.    

7 years 35 weeks ago Wow

"Not that this matters. Apparently it's done."   Wow, that could have gone better.  Not a fan of this move at all. 

7 years 35 weeks ago Wow, thanks for the recap

I, for one, thought Austin looked pretty darn good in the M-Drill I saw on the BTN last night.  Hope he stays and is successful.  Looked like he had a great RB build. 

7 years 35 weeks ago Could RR look to the track team?

Any posibility RR could recruit some track team sprinters to try football?

7 years 36 weeks ago Love the Bo comment

I think your response is very level headed and shows some valid points.  Sure we are currently struggling, but I think the pieces are in place for good things in the future. 

7 years 36 weeks ago I like those tweets

All sound positive towards our QBs.  Interesting to see the wingless helmets.  Sounds like Tate has responded well and is working hard. 

7 years 36 weeks ago Love the creativity

Keep them coming!

7 years 37 weeks ago Wow

Just wow.  Should be an epic game. 

7 years 37 weeks ago Wow

Wasn't even close.  USA!

7 years 37 weeks ago Per the job listing

I was looking a few weeks ago on the UofM job site and noticed a "Director of football operations" position that was open.  Amongst a plethora of other job duties was something along the lines of "track high school recruits GPA and SAT scores."  So this is clearly something that we are now placing some emphasis on.  Just thought I would pass on that info.  

7 years 40 weeks ago Roundtree & Co.

That's my pick.  Love it.

7 years 40 weeks ago Awesome

This is great news and quite the accomplishment.  I hope he fares well at the major tournaments and the upcoming year.  With a new practice facility on the way, things are looking up for the golf programs. 

7 years 41 weeks ago Nice find.

I want.

7 years 41 weeks ago I agree on Lewis

They do really good work there.  The ring would be more unique rather than purchasing it from a huge chain.  Congrats!

7 years 45 weeks ago Please make this happen

http://www.guardian.co.uk/football/2010/jun/13/world-cup-vuvuzela-ban-tv...

 

7 years 45 weeks ago Darn

One of the people whose car has his decal lives in my neighborhood... if I see them I will try to ask them where they got it and will post. 

7 years 45 weeks ago Promising

This game was played at a level nowhere near yesterday's match.  Neither of the teams look like they will be able to compete with the likes of the UK or USA.  Even in victory, Slovenia looked really flat, and their one goal came on another goalie mistake.  I like our chances of advancing having seen this match.

7 years 45 weeks ago Pretty reasonable

I think that statement is pretty darn reasonable. 

7 years 45 weeks ago Awesome

Great news.  Let's win a few more national titles in the upcoming years.

7 years 45 weeks ago I just don't see this happening

Note to self: Please be wrong.

7 years 45 weeks ago Sad

Just sad...

7 years 45 weeks ago Question

"I still think Hayes will only end up in Michigan's class if FL RB Demetrius Hart opts to go elsewhere." 

 

I'm probably reading into this too much... but is this some type of sign that Demetrius is going blue?  The last update I remember was that he was stressed out by the recruiting process and was torn between schools.  Any info would be much appreciated. 

7 years 48 weeks ago Interesting

So it sounds like the investigation went well.  Sure this is a bad time in history, but I am glad to see the self-imposed fractions are not completely damaging.  I just hope the media frenzy begins to subdue and we can start to gain momentum with more recruits.  Still, I like DB and think the program is headed in the right direction.

 

GO BLUE.
