Thanks for the good vibes. …

Thanks for the good vibes.  It worked!  My daughter got the acceptance at 3pm today and will be an MGoFreshman in the fall.  I’m so proud, so happy, and wish all the other applicants the best of luck.

Cool!  I’ll be at Yost on the 12th for the Stonehill game.  Will file a report on the beer selections and prices.  Go blue!

Agree.  I have been a 95% MGoLurker / 5% MGoPoster on this site for many years.  After all that time, if you really need more info than what you can find on the MGoBoard, you likely have an unhealthy obsession with Michigan football anyway and should seek help. 😂  If it’s real / important, it will be posted here within hours.  

Also, don’t forget that recruiting news is only about half as important as it used to be before the advent of the transfer portal.  We get some good ones that leave and lose out on some good ones that eventually come.  Signing day used to be quite a production and now it’s a passing glance.  For me, Zach Charbonnet was the straw that broke the camels back.

The site seems to be teetering on the verge of collapse.  Sometimes, it completely fails to load at all.  Not reliable on either Safari or Chrome.  Surprisingly, Safari has been better than Chrome over the last 48 hours.

Source commented about lack of speed in federal court which could delay an injunction.

I was not drinking.  There was no emotion.  Source was coherent and educated.  I will not reveal sources name nor law firm name.  You can be pissed that the information was leaked, but I have no reason to believe the information was incorrect.  We’ll soon find out if all of this is real or fiction.  If it is garbage, I’ll own it and will have learned a lesson about my source.  If it’s real, you’re welcome for the advanced notice.

Thanks to JohnathanE for elevating my comment to a new thread.  I’m fine with that.  I posted the info as soon as I got home from the game at 1am and just after turning my clocks back and jumping in bed.  I debated comment or post.  Oh well….

I learned the info by talking to my source at the game.  I am not a lawyer.  I posted my translation of what I heard him say.  I will not reveal the source’s identity, but I can verify that it is legitimate that he would know this type of info.  It did not sound to me like he was directly working the case.

We will all find out over the next couple of days if all of this is legit.  If it’s not, either my source was full is shit or the Big Ten backed off.  I’m hoping for the latter…..

I hope this doesn’t send me to Bolivia, but here goes…..

According to my source, Harbaugh will be suspended indefinitely on Monday.  The university is preparing a lawsuit against the conference and asking for an immediate stay on the suspension.  Grounds for the suit are violation of conference rules on investigations and irreparable harm from the timing of the suspension.  My source works for the law firm representing UM in this case.  The firm is working this weekend to determine whether to file the suit in local, state, or federal court as reaction time is critical.

This is about to get real.

This!  I’d be upset to learn that our multi-million dollar football program wasn’t pushing every boundary on scouting opposing teams.  I can’t wait until the NCAA implodes.

This!  I couldn’t agree more…

This!  I couldn’t agree more.  That program is an abomination.  I wish we never played them again.

Work?  Umm, if you’re still working after winning $168M, you’re not working.  You’re volunteering.

Stroud is a better passer…

Stroud is a better passer from a safe, protected pocket.  JJ is better at making plays, running, scrambling, RPO’s, blocking, and as shown on Saturday, he can pass too.  I’d take a sophomore JJ over a senior Stroud every day of the week.  OSU is not more talented at that position.

It’s his typical approach. …

It’s his typical approach.  He’s setting up Harbaugh so he can tear him down.  This is what he does.  Everything he says is calculated to set up a no-lose situation for his show.  Valenti is an evil genius.  Go back and listen to his show the Monday after the MSU game.  It was absolutely disgusting.  I will never listen to him again.

I spent 5 years at Michigan…

I spent 5 years at Michigan dual-majoring in engineering.  I never had a soy latte or took a Latin class.  But, I sat on a couch.  Maybe he should have said that we’re too busy sitting on couches when they should be burned to help provide warmth for the indigent?  I dunno.  Just trying to help…..

The Michigan reprimand is…

The Michigan reprimand is silly.  There’s 100 years of precedence on teams marching up that tunnel together, probably jawing at each other, without a helmet-smashing assault (by the way, MSU also only has one tunnel).  The B1G was being nice to MSU by calling out Michigan’s tunnel exit decorum.  That won’t distract anyone from the toxicity that is MSU football, which sadly has now devolved into criminal behavior, and the fact that they are being forced to publicly acknowledge it.

My favorite part of the conclusion of this regular season is the dichotomy of storylines making national news.  UM is riding a wave of football excellence and rivalry dominance, post-season accolades, COY discussions, and Blake Corum handing out turkeys on a sprained knee!  Meanwhile, MSU is beleaguered by a losing season without a bowl invitation, overpaid coach discussions, criminal charges, conference fines, and recruiting decommitments.

Someone remind me, is Tuck still Comin’?  Let us know when you find out.  We’ll be in Indianapolis.

NSFMF.  You do remember that…

NSFMF.  You do remember that tOsu made Meyer a professor teaching “Integrity” after all that went down, right?  They don’t even acknowledge that he did anything wrong and hail him as a hero.

If that’s wrong, I don’t want to be right!

…because Ryan Day was born on third base.

We really could use a long…

We really could use a long diary post citing examples and evidence of all the recent thuggery.  I keep hearing MSU fans say it’s isolated and they’ve never done anything else ( including Valenti).  It would be good for all of us to reference because we know it’s there.

Ok, I’ll pile on.  The DJ…

Ok, I’ll pile on.  The DJ sucks.  I can’t find a discernible difference between any of the songs and they are all terrible.  Yes, I was born in the 1970’s.  Yes, I put punctuation on my sentences including 2 spaces after every period.  Play some rock music!  Get off my lawn.  Go blue!

Jay Harbaugh should be promoted to Assoc Head Coach and cemented in the line of succession.  There, I said it.

0SU shockingly loses the home opener.  They go undefeated the rest of the year heading into The Game 10-1 against a 10-1 Michigan team who lost a disappointing conference game on the road.  UM prevails sinking 0SU fans into despair and calling for R Day to be fired.

 

Oh wait, that was 2021!  In reality though, that exact same story could happen this year.  Buckeyes lose to ND.  Michigan loses to Iowa.  Who cares what happens to Sparty and PSU as long as we beat them both.

 

Go Blue!  It’s going to be a fun year…..

If Michigan loses to MooU…

If Michigan loses to MooU again this year, I will completely lose my shit and get kicked out of Michigan Stadium for untold violations! Their entire fan base needs to rot in the gutter for a decade. F them.

The former running backs coach you refer to is one Mr. Jay Harbaugh.

I reserved tix on mgoblue.com at about 5pm yesterday so hoping for a response/confirmation today.  Reserved a room just north of Indy as well.  Let’s go!!!

Best day game environment I’ve ever witnessed in over 40 years of going to Michigan Stadium.  Even 1997 OSU game wasn’t as electric as today.  The 12th man hit OSU hard and they didn’t know how to respond.  5 false starts too.  Go blue!

I have been very tough on Gattis.  His performances since arriving have not been what I expected. Today was his best day at Michigan.  A masterful game plan and play-calling exhibition.  What a great day to show us all that he can really do it.  And credit to Sherrone Moore and Mike Hart too.  Brilliant day fellas.  Go blue!

WIN.  THE.  GAME.

LAZ Parking now runs the Pioneer HS lot for game days.  I purchased a season pass with reserved spot.  Not cheap.  Hope it works out.  https://www.michigangamedayparking.com

I have a really hard time putting these in order, so I’ll just list the most memorable ones:  Kapalua Plantation, Oakland Hills South, Pine Needles, Caledonia, Pasatiempo, Forest Dunes, Mauna Lani, Poppy Hills, TPC of Michigan, Tullymore, San Juan Oaks, Thistle, Bucks Run, Otsego Triibute.

My first-born got her acceptance email today from UM College of Engineering!  This proud Aero Eng ‘96 alum is smiling ear to ear.  She also got into Stanford and has visions of palm trees distracting her from her legacy. I have work to do....

On 7/29, I posted to a thread here that we would be a 9 or 10 win team with losses to OSU, ND, and possibly PSU.  I didn’t expect to beat ND or lose to Wisconsin.  I still expect to lose to OSU.  And, defense remains my biggest concern as it has been for a couple years now.  Still hopeful that Harbaugh gets his first victory against tSIO.  Don Brown needs to call the game of his life.  Go blue!

JT was short.  Still bitterly disappointed. No mercy!
