I “played” really just practiced for a I-AA (FCS now) back in the 80s. 16 team playoff existed then and I never understood why D I didn’t have a playoff. I have no issues with a 16 team playoff.
As a confirmed pessimist I think this season will be 8-4. Losing JJ, Blake, the entire starting OL, Barner is obviously a lot to replace. The schedule doesn’t allow the new guys to ease into the season and gel.
"Defense will be great of course, but I can see losses to TX, Oregon,OSU and a random team.
Hiring Sherrone for continuity sake seems delusional in retrospect. He may have to replace every defensive coach which will likely result in players leaving
I had chickens in the backyard for a couple of years and had a lot of fun. I’m the opposite of a handyman but managed to build a coop and run. Loved having fresh eggs. If/when I stop renting and buy again I’ll be getting more chickens
I just can’t get interested in XFL/Arena/UFL. I’d rather be out hiking or playing golf than watching 2nd tier professional football. But everyone is different.
i do admire the guys who continue playing into their 30s for $53k
2025 is a long way off, both in terms of keeping his commitment and development. Looking forward to seeing where he’s at after Focusing full time on being a QB with dedicated tutoring this year.
Didn’t Harbaugh say the NFL exploration wasn’t going to be an every year occurrence? If I remember that right then I don’t know why you would agree to all of his demands. Do it now, he stays then a year from now he’s looking at the NFL again and Michigan gives him whatever he wants then.
I of course would love Jim to stay but it is tiring as a fan (and maybe recruits) to listen to this every offseason. If his heart is really after a SB ring then let hik go do that
Keith Jackson IS college football to me. He started calling games the year I was born (I think) and retired when I was 40. For anyone too young to remember him go back and watch some Michigan games pre 2006.
Ive been on MGoBlog for 11 years and am not a consistent poster although I spend way too much time here. At least thats what my partner thinks.
When I tell her on Sunday that Im reading “that sports site” she asks why do you keep reading about the game its over? I try to explain that its not just about the previous days game. That I learn new non sports things-astrophysics, literature, history. I also tell her that Ive never met anyone from this site but know some of them anyways. She still doesn’t get it.
I’ve thought about writing a diary from time to time but Im a poor writer. And when I read a well written diary like this I know I should stick to sarcasm and “factual” comments.
I appreciate you Stephenjrking, along with Brian, Seth, Alex and many other posters. But most of all I appreciate Team 144.

My sources tell me he accepted the job only after Michigan agreed to LaMar’s demand that he get paid in crypto
Secondary looking thin for 2024, Keon was really looking good late in the season. Hopefully we don’t see a mass exodus now
I do like a good Panini, especially a pesto chicken

My naughty bits are getting tingly
I’m happy Trente finally got his star.
Waiting for news of players leaving after the entire staff, except Moore and maybe Bellamy go with Jim.
Up 3TDs in San Fran, its surreal watching the Lions play like they are.

I’ve never named a bong before
Finally, now everyone can move on, get coaching staff finalized and get in with recruiting and spring ball.
Jim did what he said he was going to. Thanks coach
Best Lions team in my fandom, which goes back to 1972. Im beginning to believe a Super Bowel title is on the way

Any coach not named Prime would be desperate to retain players
No he stayed one more year at LSU

The Don is back and will be used more this season and be a Heisman finalist

I got a tattoo in 2010 and have been thinking about getting another ever since. Harbaugh just inspired me to get a block M too
Two ESPN Emmy scandals in two days, next you’re going to tell me Keith Jackson has died
The past two CFP championships are TAINTED.
NCAA should vacate those wins, UGA should get the death penalty. No investigation needed
I counted 3,768,459
I’m glad someone enjoyed it :)
Your thread wasn’t up when I started mine…
Ive been reading Brians work way before he became famous

Now if Barner had blocked someone…
