Oh, sorry I wasn't technical on that one. I guess I should have just said "hit someone hard while making the solid tackle and not missing the ball carrier!"
Drinking down a whole lot of Mr. Boston Ginger Brandy to try to beat this cold I have...not sure what I hate more tonight, my cold that I have had for a week or OSU?? Definitely OSU!
Way upstate...north of Syracuse. Sports were on and off...no big names from the school. Except...mixed martial artist Paul Creighton. Just north of us was a kid by the name of Matt Gorman from Watertown High School...played on the Syracuse championship team. Small area upstate!
This has to be the biggest target for 2011, wouldn't you say? Huge that he is a Michigan fan, but also huge that Miller is pretty much set on Ohio State. IMO...this is a must get for Michigan!
I was really excited at how V. Smith finished the season and was really looking forward to watching him run wild in 2010. I was very sad when I learned about his knee injury. Hopefully someone can pick it up next year!
I think they are a bit of both right now, but I would lean toward underachieving! The things I am disappointed in are the defense and the lack of inside game. Would like to see them drive the lane more, and give the ball to Sims when he works hard to get position.
Still, its fun to watch them!
I just got done reading an article on RR written by Gregg Doyle...he pretty much says that RR has blamed the past two seasons on the Media and on Carr for not recruiting.
First of all, the Media has been down right horrible to UofM. All they want is a story, and this article by Gregg Doyle proves that. Nothing he says is relevant...it is just pure speculation. If I asked RR how he felt about the team next year and he coughs before answering, then does that mean he is lying about whatever he says? These reporters would think so...I just can't believe it!
Next, I think what RR said was the past 3 or 4 February's have been a problem. That has been 2 under his watch (at least 1 full one). So how is that solely placing the blame on Carr? Just don't get it.
This was my first basketball game (4th football game in the Big House), but was never able to catch it right to watch a basketball game. Love Crisler Arena...I was a little sad that it wasn't packed (understanding that there was a hockey game that night as well). That said, my wife and I sat 5 rows behind the recruits, which was awesome. Watching Devin Gardner stroll in (with his coach I believe) was amazing...that dude is huge! Here's to a great basketball season!
GO BLUE!!!!
My wife and I just got married in August, so her passport is in her maiden name so we didn't want to push it. So we took I90 through Cleveland and up through Toledo. What a trip...8 hours in the car! Last time we made it to the big house was 2 years ago for the ND game and we went through Canada...I think it is faster. Back is sore today!
Way too much RED for me...we traveled to the Big House from upstate NY. If I had season tickets, I would never give them up, especially to a Buckeye! Still can't believe how loud their OHIO Chant was...
I think there was more than 5% red...in my Opinion. When they started doing the O-H-I-O chant around our stadium, I couldn't believe how loud they were...that means they were all over the stadium. Also, when the blue started to boo during the chant, you could still hear it! TOO MUCH RED in that stadium yesterday...YUCK!
I am new to the blog and following recruiting...I am curious though as to with those rough years at Notre Dame how they can continually recruit top players at virtually every position and get them to commit. Is it their NAME that allows them to do so? And if so, what sets them apart from the MICHIGAN name? Thanks

Could it be possible they are going to redshirt Tate this year to give him an extra year?

I think James did a great job also. I am a little concerned with Gordon's tackling...wish he would just lower the head and lay the wood!
