Crazy he is getting looks since Stallions was the only reason M beat Ohio St in 2021.

This team was a borderline…

This team was a borderline holding call on PSU and a 'ND using 11 players on a goal line stand' away from potentially being a 3 loss team this year. Ramzy early in the year tweeted out '3 loss team'. They played very well against Michigan and there is something to say about a team that can find a way to win. As a Michigan fan, it was good for them to win those games to ultimately boost the resume. But I really don't think they were a 'no questions asked' undefeated program going into The Game on Saturday...

Obviously getting better QB play next year is an absolute must for you all - would hate to see all that 5* WR talent go to waste...

After reading the B1G…

After reading the B1G response again, one section caught my eye that makes me a bit concerned (truly trying not to be a concern troll here). It's Section H of their response towards the end of the section:

"This evidence also revealed significant new information from interviews that the University attended, information that is covered by confidentiality under the NCAA’s rules so as not discussed further here."

I am coming more and more to terms that there will be a punishment. And that punishment might be meaningful, particularly if the B1G and the NCAA do not think objectively about the actual rule that was allegedly broken (one that was on the table to be rescinded).

Even though it is with pay? Truly asking. Would think anything meaningful that NCAA could show would be grounds to just fire him now or suspend without pay.

yep - just mgo-searched and no mention of him anywhere in recruiting round ups. Seems like M didn't have any interest in him at all. Fascinating!

If there is one thing I am…

If there is one thing I am not worried about it is how these portal will impact culture. The team and the coaches display what they are about every day. And it’s not just talk. It’s their actions. So when kids transfer in, have all the confidence in the world that they know what they are getting into and how they are expected to mesh.

Harbaugh began using a phrase this year which really has stuck with me - "better, no bitter". He has used it repeatedly talking about specific individuals and groups as well (eg - the walk on's). Related to these two guys? Maybe, maybe not. Not sure if it is a total coincidence though...

Are you saying that in the span of 3 or 4 weeks, the team that voted Cade as captain is not trying as hard for him as they are for JJ? Also, are you saying that the coaches are calling worse plays for Cade vs. what they are calling for JJ? Do you think they called worse plays for Davis Warren vs. what they called for JJ?

People’s feelings can change…

People’s feelings can change but 6 weeks ago Gattis was in tears talking about JH at the Broyles Award ceremony. The flirtation with the NFL, the Weiss wingman situation, etc obviously didn’t help but have to believe that deep down Gattis will always appreciate the risk JH took bringing him on.

I completely agree with your last statement. Every recession is not like 2007-2010. It's ok to have some pullback in growth, a bear stock market, normalization in credit losses for banks. Tends to weed out the under performers and allow for more efficient use of resources/capital. Thanks for your commentary throughout the thread.

I am in the camp that it could help them even in this current cycle. He was a immoral cloud over the program that I think some parents wanted their kids to avoid. With him gone, I actually think it increases their chances of getting some kids that were being told to by their parents to think twice given the kind of person Urban is.

I would pay for an app. The new website is no good on mobile and like many have said, my visits to the site have probably been reduced by 30-40% since the relaunch.

McGary in that Kansas game

I stupidly just watched that entire Trey Burke highlight video from the Kansas game. It could also basically be a Mitch McGary highlight video too. Gosh - what could have been if he was healthy that soph. year and able to play in tournament...

If Hugh Freeze is able to...

Even interview for a job related to college football, Shea's eligibility is not up for discussion whatsoever. 

Absolutely this

We went to multiple NU games last year and the atmospher was outstanding. Haven't been to any this year as it is a haul out to Rosemont. I go back and forth about whether or not I want it to be a a momentum killer for the program. On one hand, my son really likes the 'Cats so when they do well, he is happy. On the other hand, my in-laws really like the 'Cats so nice to have this year somewhat humble them. They were starting to get a bit cocky about the direction of the program. Plus Chris Collins is a Duke grad which is always a huge negaive for me. 

Looking forward to this fall when UM fanes takes over Ryan Field!

Time limit on replay

Seems like such an easy fix and I think would keep the spirit of the game. 15 seconds to review. If its not obvious (no frame by frame, enhance, enhance, enhance stuff), then it stands. Can't believe they haven't implemented something like that in basketball. I believe they have in baseball right?

Narrator voice:

There wasn't any late drama

Couple items:

Disclaimer: I am #teampeters

That said - not sure I feel great about bringing in a guy who needs to learn a very complicated playbook and has high expectations to start. Granted, I am sure Harbaugh will bring those expectations down to earth (see: Speight’s comments about splitting snaps in spring. But just makes me a bit worried about team chemistry over the long term.

Secondly (and this is totally just a question) - are any of the players that went to Oke Miss during the peak of Freeze’s recruiting shadiness at risk of being disqualified from playing due to potentially taking improper benefits?

Seems like this would have been something good to break

Out against an overly aggressive LB group (and this is just hypothetical) if we were playing in a monsoon. Love it just wish we could have maybe used it a week prior?
