I was able to score a bottle…

I was able to score a bottle of Weller  full proof single barrel, a bottle of Eagle Rare, a bottle of NULU toasted small batch, and a bottle of Willet. I have my fingers crossed for a bottle of the Eagle Rare 17 year or a 20 year Pappy or a William Larue Weller.

A couple years ago, a buddy of mine lived in Illinois and was able to pick me up three bottles of Eagle Rare. I hadn’t seen a single bottle on the shelf for two years at that point. It is my go to normally, however, I have been drinking it sparingly over the last few years.

I can get bottles of Woodford reserve double oaked whenever I want it so that has been the bourbon I have been drinking the most lately. It doesn’t hurt that it is a damn fine bourbon either.

Exactly the same thought. I…

Exactly the same thought. I would give a lot to see a Michigan team with both Devin Bush and Aiden Hutchinson suiting up together. Those two helped to change the culture at Michigan as well.

Didn't know you two were an item.

Michigan should worry about:…

Michigan should worry about: Nick Singleton has 5 carries of 40+ yards this season. No one else in the country has more than 3.

About that stat: He did that 3 times against Ohio University and 2 times against Auburn, the 98th and 91st ranked rush defenses in the country, respectively. Those two teams have allowed 14 rushes of 20+ yards in only two charted games (Penn State game excluded) for each team! Singleton's longest carry against Purdue was 9 yards, while averaging 3.1 yds/car for a total of 31 yards. Against Central Michigan, he wasn't much better at 3.5 yds/car and a long of 21 with 42 total yards on the day.

Singleton is a great player, make no mistake. But, I am much more worried about Clifford breaking free and extending plays that keep our defense on the field. 

Fantastic content as always BiSB!

Manuel said nothing about…

Manuel said nothing about the playoffs. He said that about the Conference Championship. There is no emotion in using logic to understand that putting OSU in the BTCCG does almost nothing to help their CFP chances and only hurts Indiana. The fact that OSU currently sits at #4 in the CFP rankings in spite of resume or number of games played tells you what you need to know.

The SEC is who they are because they want ALL of the spots in the CFP to be taken by their teams. SEC, SEC, SEC. They have the best talent footprint in the country. They are willing to do anything to win. So...

I am critical of Michigan when it is warranted and I support the team whether they win or lose. The "crown the Buckeyes champs" before a game is even played crap can definitely go away though. Thankfully, we have MSU, Iowa, Purdue, and Penn State that every once in a while show up and prove that every game must be played. Unfortunately, Michigan can't get it done this year. GO BLUE!

This is garbage. Even if you…

This is garbage. Even if you want to defend the idea that OSU is the best team in the B1G and they were getting screwed by an arbitrary rule, you are missing the long-term big picture issue that has been going on for years and will continue to occur. OSU gets preferential treatment over other teams. Period. Full-stop.

Here's a simple exercise to test the statement I made. If Indiana was 5-0 and OSU was 6-1 (they didn't play due to Covid and are similarly ranked), would the B1G come together to make a decision to overturn a rule they put in place to favor Indiana going to the BTCCG? Absolutely not. They would send OSU in hopes that they would destroy a team from the West and strengthen their resume as B1G Champs knowing well and good that a B1G Champ wouldn't be omitted from the CFP. Sorry Indiana, you didn't qualify.

At the end of the day, OSU gets stronger every year and the rest of the B1G falls back a little more. More national exposure, more money, more top-notch recruits. Rinse. Repeat.

The rules do not matter.

Playing in the shoe without…

Playing in the shoe without a crowd? I'm sorry, but I've seen this movie too many times. Six days prior to The Game the governor will issue an all-is-well order causing the NCAA and B1G to issue a special allowance to have fans at the game. Unfortunately, there will not be enough time or resources to issue tickets to the Michigan fanbase so the entire stadium will be Ohio fans only. 

It was released on a Beatles…

It was released on a Beatles album but was wholly written by Harrison, and Clapton played guitar on the track along with other uncredited artists. I consider it a Harrison song. 

This won’t prove a thing but…

This won’t prove a thing but here it goes...

Paul McCartney - Maybe I’m Amazed, Live and Let Die, Band on the Run

John Lennon - Instant Karma, Imagine

George Harrison - While My Guitar Gently Weeps, Got My Mind Set On You

I like all these songs better than anything the Beatles ever did. That being said, Can’t You Hear Me Knockin’ is one of the few songs I could listen to 20 times in a row and not get sick of it. Slight edge to The Rolling Stones. 

That's the problem. The…

That's the problem. The previous play had three missed penalties at the very least. They should have never been in 4th and short in the first place.

Yeah, I must have been…

Yeah, I must have been editing my post at the same time. Agree with all your points. I still think that $22 per day in food costs is high for an individual, however it is lower than the cost of eating out for each meal every day...

I really would have expected…

I really would have expected these numbers to be higher and here's why:

UM student athletes: 1011

Average cost per athlete per year: $2,769.54

Basic meal plan for non-athletes per year: $4,712

This is a perfect example of how students are being overcharged by institutions because there is no way that I can be convinced that a normal student is eating more/higher quality food than an athlete.

 

Edit: Given some of the lower numbers it would make more sense that this cost is over and above room and board costs and that athletes are closer to $7500+ per year in total cost. My point still stands though.

Now that he is gone I don't…

Now that he is gone I don't feel bad about divulging this:

I have a family tie (Michigan fan as well) within the Olentangy program that was very quiet about Zach Harrison until he committed to the Buckeyes. Apparently, Washington became very discouraged about Harbaugh and Brown losing interest in Zach Harrison. Washington was determined to get the kid to go Blue so he tried making a backdoor deal behind his bosses' backs. Washington contacted one of his best friends (current GVSU player) Jayden Rodgers and promised him a spot on Michigan's roster if he could help push Harrison to Michigan. Harrison and family caught wind of the deal and weren't pleased. His move tarnished our reputation as having honest coaches.

Bottom line is that Washington may be a good coach and tireless recruiter but we will be fine without him as it seems he may not fit with our current staff. Seems more like he belongs on OSU's staff anyway.

Mods: Delete if you think this is too personal or isn't reliable since I am not the first-hand source.

And Jed Fisch was that man. There are others out there and I think that is the direction the offensive coaching needs to go.

Agreed

I agree with the white pants.

Definitely no

What would prevent EVERY underclassmean from declaring? Given the increased awareness of injuries and the potential for how they can affect future earnings, I would think that if players were just allowed to return to college that it would create more problems. Many of the logistical issues have been mentioned already.

I think the real issue lies in providing better services to the players that allow more transparency with NFL management. You may be the best WR in the country as a junior, but if every NFL team is looking to address defensive needs in the first two rounds that is something a player should know to help make a decision.

Why Ed Davis?

Everyone brings up Ed Davis but I think Tyler Moeller from OSU is more appropriate. I was pretty annoyed that he was granted a sixth year when it happened and thought that someday I would look back on it and be even more annoyed, this was his bio:

2006 - Fresman (redshirted)

2007 - Redshirt freshman

2008 - Redshirt sophomore

2009 - Redshirt junior (Missed entire season due to injury)

2010 - Redshirt senior (Injured in 4th game - out rest of season)

2011 - 6th year

It just seems like this situation aligns with Clark. Their injury even occurred in the same game of their fifth year.

FYI

Eating pizza only happened because there wasn't a bag of dicks nearby.

Reminds me of

Reminds me of Keith Marshall. He may not have quite the elite speed of Marshall but he powers through tackles better at this stage than Marshall did.

I will be severely disappointed if Khalid Hill doesn't get a ton of play this year. He destroys almost everyone he puts a helmet on.

Cumulative GPA isn't a good indicator

He could have carried a 3.3 GPA through 4 semesters and if he had a 1.2 for this last semester he would have been declared ineligible for fall sports. Also, if he received incompletes in any classes he may have fallen under the minimum credit hour threshhold. That's how it was when I played and I am assuming things haven't changed drastically. He must have had quite a bit to make up and was unable to do so. This is of course assuming that the source is true and he isn't able to come back...

Samsung

Samsung 55" or 65" SUHD 4K. Get the 8500 Series or better for the best processor. Skip the curved screen as there is absolutely zero benefit at such a small format. 3D is brilliant on these as well, if you're into that...

I just bought the refurbished one for $24,157. Who could pass up a steal like that?
