At this point he is just openly lying to recruits then. He said he would be back before signing day.
If this is the new yearly routine, he should be honest about his intentions.
The AD should tell offer him a very lucrative deal that also has a huge buyout. Make a long term decision right now. Can’t do this every year and hope the declining recruiting levels don’t take down the program.
It sucks this is happening, but it can’t continue every year. Especially not if it requires lying to players.
U of M medicine is some of the best in the country. I’ve had family members across the country get sent here for 2nd opinions on serious issues. Not worried about that at all. Cade is upset he was squeezed out and felt even more isolated after injury. He should be grateful for his time and leave gracefully.
Bud’s take is bad. He says this based off his power rating numbers. A lot of people’s algorithms value success rate and think of big plays as luck. SP+ actually really values explosive plays because they realize they have a lot to do with the defensive scheme. This same Michigan team has whooped this same OSU team 2 years in a row. Not a fluke, not lucky, this was an ass kicking.
I thought Mullings at RB was dumb. Then he made a big throw. I always believed JJ was close though.
I was all aboard the Fire Harbaugh train in 2020 though. I have also always thought Ryan Day was riding coattails. So maybe those cancel out? Who cares!?! GO BLUE!
YouTube channels could be a great way for players to make money on NIL. Super easy to set up, they just have to put out good content. This video isn’t necessarily going to be viral enough to make any money, but if a group of players worked together to make a joint channel and post more videos, it could be a decent little money maker.
I think you saying that Edwards and you come from the same world, is ignorant. Did you grow up in the same place as him? Are you the same religion? Are you the same race? Did you have the same culture? Are you the same age? Did you go to the same school?
I think there is a generational gap between people who are just old enough to have had social media when they were 14-20ish, and people who didn’t get real popular social media until well into college.
I had social media as a teenager, and there are some super dumb old posts of mine that I see at times. There were certain words or ways of talking that I would be horrified to see on my timeline today. There has to be a level of understanding with young people on social media making dumb posts. Teaching moments don’t require judging/attacking the person making the mistake.
You get truly outraged by 19 year olds retweeting stupid things? Seems like you think it’s “a bad look” or something “disappointing”. You don’t seem “outraged”. If you are, what do you think should be done?
You are outraged by someone being ignorant and retweeting a dumb tweet? I don’t have the energy for that I guess.
He also deleted it quickly, so he tried taking it back. I’m not going to say “no you can’t take it back, you must repent harder!” That’s just forcing more problems IMO.
I’m not going to fake outrage about a football player retweeting a dumb tweet he probably doesn’t fully understand. Especially when that football player comes from a different culture than I do and has different experiences and influences.
Also, he deleted it, so let’s just move on. Not everything is the end of the world.
This list makes the classic mistake of thinking that all returning starters are better options than new guys. A lot of returning starters suck and a lot of first year starters are very good.
They have no good players, how would they be favorites? Michigan was better this year and might get just about everyone back with better recruits coming in.
The Home/Away splits for Houstan are for sure some what real, but I really think it is just a matter of small sample size. In the NBA they would be at the 1/3rd mark of the season, and everyone would be saying that he will find his stroke eventually. I think Caleb was probably overthinking and nervous to start the year in some big games, but he has become more comfortable and I think he will be a high 30s or low 40s guy from here out, home or away.
I'm sorry, I think the idea that we should expect Juwan to be a violent person because he is black, is just racist. He lashed out, as a grown man, while in no danger. I do not want to hear any excuse or explanation. He hurt his players, his program, and his university. Moussa is going to have to answer questions about this from every team in the NBA this offseason. That is Howard's fault. He should be saying sorry to as many people as possible, as publicly as possible, as fast as possible.
Really cannot be shared, if the coach is paying for the buy out, then his salary is just lower. So then they would have to pay him more, in order to give him the same motivation to come to their job.
The NFL seems fully committed to supporting this guy, so I imagine Flores gets paid off and this all goes away when the NFL tells the networks to shut up about it.
We don't need more NFL guys. We need college guys that understand recruiting at a high level. An NFL person is not going to come in and learn all the details of NIL, which high schools are tied to which coaches, which 7 on 7 teams are important to be friendly with, etc. We need someone who wants to coach in college, and wants to recruit.
I think we need someone more recruiting minded anyway. Mac was great at Xs and Os, but for long term success you have to be an elite recruiter. He seemed like an NFL guy for sure. Good for him.
You cannot have co-DCs in reality. You can have the titles, but someone has to be in charge of the defense. If Harbaugh was a defense guy, you could do co-DCs, but he lets his DC run the show.

Michigan can pay him more than WMU can. He should be the OC or DC in waiting depending on which we lose first.

I audibly laughed at “spiritually golden retrievers” “McCarthy is one”

The winner will have to be on a playoff team. It might come down to The Game.

Not the same at all. White children and young adults have had 100x the eduction and exposure to issues of race involving black Americans.

Kanye’s music sucks? Let’s not match crazy with crazy.
So we mostly (maybe completely) agree. I’m simply saying we should not be calling for heads when some simple conversations can solve the issue.
You say this without hearing a single word from DE about it. We know nothing about him.
Ok then what should be done? Kicked off the team? Expelled?

Graduated, bought a house, got married, got a job.
I thought they were all interstellar?
Or was this one signed by Matthew McConaughey?
He cannot get in BPONE for Hockey, that is what football is for.
Brady wanted Bowles, New England guy that has the same ideas as TB about culture.
My money cannon doesn't shoot $100's right now LOL. Next year!
Any good ways to contribute $20 efficiently to the NIL funds?
Maybe we don't compare all UM sports teams to put down one in favor of another. Also, always comparing the women to the men is unfair to the women.
If they go to the NBA they will need a work visa or something like that right? Who couldn't they get that while staying in school at the same time?
Burke is the best player at UofM since the Fab 5, he was unstoppable. Stop it.
They have no good players, how would they be favorites? Michigan was better this year and might get just about everyone back with better recruits coming in.
Pitchers take twice as long between pitches in the majors compared to the minors. That was a real problem.
Also, commercials are what pays for the entire thing, that's not going away.
Oh, and the NL has a DH now!
Baseball is Back! Rule changes reported: Pitch Clock, restricted shifts, larger bases.
Games should be faster, more balls in play, more baserunners, more stealing. Going to be great.
Putting the phone number on the internet is a ballsy move my friend.
NFTs are my favorite way to launder money. My least favorite thing to be pitched.

I don't think Illinois will ever win a true Big Ten Title
sorry
Good to see Johns work his way back into the starting line up!

They were playing Ojabo on the pass rushing downs. Harrel came in to do LB things and run stopper things.
They are young, and likely eager to play. So I think there is a chance.
Chris P. would be awesome. Lets get Crootin'
A large one, it matters a lot to 17 year old boys, which is kind of sad to think that they let it impact their choice of school.
I was much more mature and picked my school based on where my new girl friend went, but I did marry her so it has worked out so far.
Give him a huge buyout so if he does leave we can poach a big name.

The NCAA aint gone do shit.
