Welcome, Jim!

So, when U of M started this Coaching search, I was not enraptured by the thoughts of Harbaugh being named. I still did not like what he said about our Academics back in 2007and I liked Hoke but he just didn't bring out the players talent (and it irked me he didn't wear a mike). My choice in doing research was never talked about, Art Briles of Baylor.  You know, the team playing against MSU tonight.
But following this process, Jim IS the one that all U of M can get behind. Now just deliver the wins! GO BLUE!!

I also have to admit I was wrong about Hackett.  When he came onboard, the only thing I knew about him was that he shuttered 1/2 his plants and laid off 12,000 employees.  In following the coaching search, I've been impressed by what others have said about his professionalism.  Thank you, Mr. Hackett, for bringing that back to a university!

but, but, UMxWolverines ...

Were you fully unaware?

ok, I'm stupid - what does CC stand for?

hmm?

Every News Org Reporting Hoke is gone

was on google news.

 

USAtoday, Freep,Fox, BleacherReport, etc.

Nobody has mentioned

Nobody has mentioned the part that alcohol had in this event.  I'm an alcoholic that has struggled with that demon for 40 years.  I've been sober since May 31st and hope to never take another drink, but I can tell all of you that it is frightening what alcohol can make or let you do.  I got drunk on my birthday last year while my wife was picking up our daughter from U of M.  I was so drunk they had to carry me into the house.  So drunk I couldn't chew my food.  So drunk I tried to start a bonfire by pouring gasoline on it.  Luckily,I didn't hurt myself or others, but can you imagine how I felt looking in my daughter's eyes the next day?  Yeah, that bad.  Guess what?  The embarrassment and guilt didn't stop me from going back to the bottle for another year.  I was even on a pill called antabuse that you CAN'T drink while taking it.  But you can swap pills out, lie about taking it, etc,  all to get another drink.

If Frank was on his feet and being able to talk to the police after drinking a fifth of Hennessy as reported, it was not the first time he has imbibed. And, not excusing his behavior, but when I was drunk and somebody started throwing things at me, I'm not sure what I would have done.  Alcohol stops that voice of reason

I hope all the best for Frank and Diamond in their future.  There, but for the grace of god...

Go Blue!

Hey, my first post!   I want the big blue to win and get a bowl bid so we can get the extra practises.  I really don't care about the kickoff time cuz I'm stuck watching it on the computer

All I got to say is that my daughter is going to U of M and picked this semester to go study out of the country.  With the schedule we had and the performance of this team, I gotta say she's one smart girl (takes after her dad)

 

Go Blue
