What sort of delusional history rewriting bullshit is this?
More than half the fanbase, including folks on this blog, whated Harbaugh gone in 2020. I hate Warde in many ways, but he did good not firing Harbaugh as many demanded.
On top of that you think coach would have stayed instead of going to the Chargers? That is some excellent stuff you're smoking there.
I completely disagree. Also, an outcry? I hardly see any outcry outside of a couple of articles.
Ono is specifically targeting protests that disrupt official events such as graduation ceremonies. He is absolutely correct in that others have a right to their events as well. Protests that are disruptive to that degree do not accomplish anything and have no place at my alma mater.
Even where I live folks taking over bridges in protest have prevented emergency vehicles from reaching those in critical need. If nobody is paying attention to your cause to the point, then maybe perhaps you should examine where you are. Especially if you de-facto support causes that help terrorists who have the genocide of certain groups in their charter.
Thanks for bringing this to my attention, I'll also send Ono an email of support.
An ISIS level terrorist group called Hamas, who was elected to govern, invaded, murdered, and raped 1,500 civilians, breaking a ceasefire and starting a war. They have not surrendered, are still in power, and continue to fight. In what world would any nation accept anything less than a total surrender? Not to mention they actively use humans shields which is against the Geneva Convention.
If you want basic human rights, scream at Hamas to surrender and end the war. We didn't stop until we received Nazi Germany and Imperial Japans surrender either, and anyone who screamed at us to stop fighting the Nazi's were, well, not taken seriously at all.
It's a great read, especially for me who's lost interest in bball and is just kinda aware of the downward spiral, with none of the details. Against all odds I'm expecting one more year because of Fab Five sakes and a decent recruiting class.
We're Mr Brightside. Consecutive rock bottoms will reset expectations and the next coach won't have Beilein to live up to, making it easy for us to hire someone great.
Still can't believe we won a football national championship.
Was at the point where I fervently wished we won a natty in hockey or basketball even though I don't really care about either sport because I thought a football natty was impossible.
Something tells me there's a chance Harbaugh will be back in the future.
He'll def have success with the Chargers, but the players stopped responding to him in SF, and may very happen again. By that time the bullshit NCAA penalties should be over.
Honestly, Mike getting experience as an OC at another program would be great, LONG TERM, for Michigan. Especially as we bask in the National Championship glory.
Get some great experience, work out the kinks, and years later you can come back to Michigan as an even better coach.
This isn't a court case where everything has to be proved beyond doubt.
If a person in Salions seat was pointing his phone at generally the sideline for the entire game, yes most people would agree he was videotaping signals.
I can't respect him enough not only for how amazing he was as a player, but also how he bounced back from a severe injury that likely cost him 9 figures in NFL earnings.
Been said a ton of times already, but CFB is basically the English Premier League except salaries are paid by fans.
So if our fanbase and donners aren't willing to pay these salaries despite having money, we have no one else to blame than us, and lowering expectations is in order.
You simply don't expect Aston Villa to compete with Manchester United year in year.
The only thing that matters is being competitive with the SEC.
If this brings 5 stars and TV dollars to the B1G, IT DOESN'T MATTER WHICH TEAM is winning, including our enemies. Because it guarantees our coffers are full.
Pretty obvious and I hate to say this, but unless we get our NIL shit in order, it'll get even harder and harder to beat them, or any one of the high powered NIL teams.
You're basically competing against a much higher payroll. And can you blame the players? Ryan Day says the going rate is 2mil for a top QB, 1 mil for top DE's and tackles. That's life changing money for many, especially at age 18.
I'm still happy the money is finally flowing to the actual players on the field, but this is plain capitalism. Either get with it, or you're going to be left behind, fast.

... I'd say we reeled in the best transfer class in history just last year though, in retrospect.
Eh during our losing streak to Ohio, punctured with Final Four appearances, I used the 'basketball school' excuse happily.
Starting with the press conference, attitude towards NIL, starting work at 5am, assistant coach hiring etc, Dusty is cookin like a mad scientist.

Thanks again Alex.

Already one through and through in my book.
Nah there were other players including olinemen who were publicly saying they were tired of Jims shit.

FFS Santa has been part of the negotiation for months. They could launch Warde to Mars and that wouldn't mean Harbaugh is any closer to signing.
For anything he may have done??
Listen we all know there is likely zero JH did bad in 2023, but no way any lawyers sign off on that.

While this sounds interesting, they're still rumors and rumors can very well be just crazy. Not sure what to think.
Yeah man, wife and family comes way before football.
I had to step away from Michigan football at times when it was affecting my attitude with my family.
Actual vid shows it was pretty cool and cordial enough, including Harbaugh shaking hands with Pettiti.
That picture is kind of misrepresenting what actually happened.
This isn't court where you have to prove everything.
Just having film of a guy in Stalions seat videotaping the sideline for the entire game is likely evidence enough to come down hard.
This isn't a court case where everything has to be proved beyond doubt.
If a person in Salions seat was pointing his phone at generally the sideline for the entire game, yes most people would agree he was videotaping signals.
Thats enough for them to come down hard on us.
I can't respect him enough not only for how amazing he was as a player, but also how he bounced back from a severe injury that likely cost him 9 figures in NFL earnings.
Wishing all the best for him
I still can't believe people believe this anti vaccine hysteria. But then again horse paste snorting people will do what they do
Texags, Texas A&M's main fansite has been doing it for a couple of years now.
I hate to say it, but this is a win win for everyone
If Brian set one up here I'd happily donate, wouldn't mind some of that going to him and the staff
Looks like they have strict copyright rules, so no Block M or Buckeyes
I mean we should applaud them for trying hard, since we love to clown them for being horrible on the field.

No court in the land will support banning a freshman from earning money via his likeness or donations, and rightfully so.
Every contract is a risk, nobody knows how they will perform.
None of this NIL money is coming from the school.
It's coming from businesses advertising and donations.
There isn't and shouldn't be a cap on what people will donate to you, or pay you to advertise.
Athletes consider markets size and advertising opportunities all the time before signing a contract.
This is no different for college athletes.
Ours seem to be the perfect blend of team goals, and individual accomplishments.
Pretty much nothing more important than your health, including taking care of yourself when you're young.
Best wishes to Erick, hope he physically recovers 100% soon
Whether or not 2% of college football players go to play in the NFL is irrelevant.
That's like saying only 2% of NFL players make the Hall of Fame.
In fact, that 98% won't make money going pro on reinforces the belief they should get paid when they can.
Kirby Smart just negotiated a 10 year, $112 million deal. And every major sport has a players union.
I see nothing wrong with this, it's just the process of capitalism.
Hey Brian, I'm just super glad to hear from you! Hope things are going well!
Daughter…
Wife: "We own you kid"
Daughter: "Not anymore"
You: "We're back-"
Wife & Daughter: "Who are you again?"
With his height, and if he improves his shooting and defense a bit, can see him being a solid starter.
Speaking of reliable, Stanford does NOT bring in the Bay Area. They can't even bring in Palo Alto
We need to keep adding great recruiting grounds and more $$$$$.
Usually that has been North Carolina and Virginia. But with the NIL, I don't know how much of that matters anymore.
You cannot forget everyone else. That's what the B12 and Pac12 desperately was hoping to do.
Two 20+ team league is absolutely where we're going.
And if we're not competitive with the SEC, THEY will eventually start raking in way more superior TV money, and starting picking off the B1G.
The only thing that matters is being competitive with the SEC.
If this brings 5 stars and TV dollars to the B1G, IT DOESN'T MATTER WHICH TEAM is winning, including our enemies. Because it guarantees our coffers are full.
Well someone has a bit of a short fuse. Def snippy management material.
After winning the championship, Poole and Draymond were good ol fashioned ribbing each other in the interviews!
Poole: "I don't even rock with Spartans...!"
Dray: "This guy just happen to be sitting between two of us!"
To put into comparison, Ryan Days salary next year is 9.5 million dollars.
He's saying 13 mil will keep the roster together.
Pretty obvious and I hate to say this, but unless we get our NIL shit in order, it'll get even harder and harder to beat them, or any one of the high powered NIL teams.
You're basically competing against a much higher payroll. And can you blame the players? Ryan Day says the going rate is 2mil for a top QB, 1 mil for top DE's and tackles. That's life changing money for many, especially at age 18.

Gene editing has advanced to the point where non-human organ transplants are also close to starting larger scale human trials.
Bless all these researchers and medical personnel.
Other countries are even way more poor and messed up than hours but then don't have anywhere near the mass shootings per capita.
Turns out if you can't get a glock or ar 15, you can't do nothing 99% of the time.
And this is coming from a guy who loves his glocks
His family must be in utter shock. Condolences and prayers to coach and his family.
What Jimbo says maybe true, but it's also true Texas A&M is de-facto buying players, like everyone is doing or starting to do.
Played basically my entire life until college.
Pray point me to any team that was ripped apart by jealousy
We're losing because we're not even trying. We have only ourselves to blame.
