I was enjoying the hot takes as well.  My favorite might have been (paraphrasing, and using quotes anyway) “it’s easy for MSU to recruit when their coach will be there for 9 more years” 😂

I am not saying some of these hot takes were not valid at the time, just funny in hindsight.

Serious question. Can we show Jim on the Jumbotron like a thousand times.  Record his best coach speak and just play them all one after another after every play.  Fire up the troops and a big fuck you to everyone else.

Reggie was the reason my south quad dorm room got torn to sh*t freshman year.  Maybe the reason was my anger management issues, but I feel better blaming Dr. Ho.

I click on the thread just to put a vote in for De Gaulle. Every complaint about every other airport seems to fit this one single airport.  Will go out of my way in time and distance to avoid it.  
on the domestic side, LAX is the worst. Check back with me when the 30 year construction project finally ends.  DTW is brilliant.

So you would have waited to take Mazi until the second round?  How did that work out for you? 
 The point is the projection is rarely very accurate.  The mocks don’t match the GM boards, and Holmes’ board has been better than the mocks for each year he has been in charge.  He had Gibbs higher than the “experts” and expected that some other GMs did too.  He wanted him on the lions so he took him.  Not sure why people think theses guys are even looking at the same info we look at.  Until Holmes has a bad draft, I’m fine giving him the benefit of the doubt. 

I wish Brandon would have…

I wish Brandon would have rolled lines more. The top lines, as fantastic as they were, looked tired late, both in games and in the season. Keep your top lines fresh and beat the crap out of the other teams d at the same time. Win win.  Not a hill I’ll die on, but I would have liked to have seen it. 
 

great write up Alex, fantastic coverage all year.

I get that risk is a game of chance, but I am a little curious how our clear user count advantage has never quite produced a string of good roll days for us resulting in lots of regional holdings and even more numeric dominance.  Is there an easy explanation other than everyone is out to get us?  (I got my instruction and I put in my pick as I will 8 more times, just wondering how we are not dominating this game?)

There was 10 min left when you came back and we never scored again!  You risked it all and got lucky!

Loveland - we started the year with All and Schoon plus a bunch of older depth TEs. Loveland was probably on the list player to look at for 4 games and see if an redshirt was appropriate.  We eventually lost both starters for some/ or all remaining games… he stepped up and played out of his mind down the stretch.  Can’t even express how impressive that was.

There was a series revolving around all the football teams and surrounding story lines called “4th and Forever: Muck City”. Worth checking out.  features Pahokee and Glades Central.

I know of someone with a share of $7Billion that may want to contribute a little along with a thank you note that says something along the lines of “couldn’t have done it without you, thanks 4 everything.”

Sugar Ray, Duran, Hagler, Hearns… I think there were about 10 fights between the 4 of them and most were awesome.  I may be misremembering the glory days, but watching the clip makes me think I probably remember it pretty well.

Or….. whatever they were worried about has not yet happened to the young man.  And hopefully for everyone including BSJ and those doctors, they continue to look overly cautious to people who have zero clue what the diagnosis was and to everyone else too.

Son got in, and I could not be happier or prouder. Go Blue!!!

It’s overthinking to not do…

It’s overthinking to not do everything you can to secure the 3 points.  I’d argue he did the same thing in game 1.  Lost out on 2 points there. And it didn’t help him in game 2 v Canada.  Get the points when they are there.  Again, it worked out, but that does not make it sound logic. On to Hamilton, beat Canada! 

I am not in the locker room,…

I am not in the locker room, but Berhalter needs to be asked about some of his decisions.  No Pepi, not having Aaronson and CP in at the same time, subbing in zardes and Morris up front (not going to help you score) when we had a lead and fresh legs in D might have helped is just tactical blunders.  Almost like he is saving some legs of our better O players for later in the window while giving Z and Morris some thank you charity time because the game was in hand.  Only it wasn’t and we need those three points very badly.  It worked out but that doesn’t make it right.  Frustrated… we need to do better. 

A RB? 

A RB? 
 

they of course are still wrong, but we did have a couple other departures that “started” games, but we also bring back guys who started games on both sides that might not have been considered starters… we are bringing back a lot.

Just for the record, UM is known world wide as an elite academic institution.  Most people around the world do not follow American football and even less follow the college version.  
 

one might also argue that the standards for minorities are not “reduced” but calibrated to take all the factors that effect education and learning into account. 
 

but yes, transfer credits is the issue with the portal.

Maybe Hutch will explain to Ojabo why he did it.  
 

I think Ojabo will (should) go, but you don’t have to look far to find an example of a guy in that situation that didn’t.

Not that I think it’s a great idea, but I bet he does a better job with blocking an OLB than Henning was able to do. (Not his fault, was a no win for a slot dot that fits in your pocket.) 

maybe if none of the TEs can double in that capacity we find a back up DL to give it a try.

THIS.  If you swapped Bello for Adams to start the game and left Sands on the bench, we maybe don’t need to come back at all.  Why are you playing guys at different spots than their natural position in the biggest games?? Save that shit for some rando friendly.
