5 days 13 hours ago	Do you have Kalis on the	Do you have Kalis on the right side because of southpaw Shane or is that where you would put him in a typical line situation?
5 days 15 hours ago	Yea really, by 2015 the depth	Yea really, by 2015 the depth is going to be a luxury few teams can match.   I'd go Magnuson - Kalis - Kugler - Dawson - Braden.  That's hoping Kugler is just as good as advertised and forces the coaches hand.  And that we finally hear some hype about Magnuson, but your prediction is probably more likely.
5 days 15 hours ago	That's good to hear.  Someone	That's good to hear.  Someone pointed out that NFL tackles have been on the shorter side at like 6'5.  Is that a technique thing or just that someone like Lewan is so rare to find?
5 days 15 hours ago	I think Bosch and Kalis just	I think Bosch and Kalis just look the part at guard so well that I'd hate to have to move them outside. They would really fill the hole but I guess with Kugler, Bryant, Bosch, Dawson, and Kalis all inside you put them where they can play when they're that good.
5 days 15 hours ago	Ohio	Ohio state has to play at Purdue.  If there was ever a more hysterical achilles heel for a team.  Lost 3 of the last 4 in west lafayette IIRC.
5 days 15 hours ago	Tackle worries me	We seem to be looking great on the interior for the future. But other than Magnuson (LT)  and Braden (RT) who is going to really step up on the outside.  I could see AJ williams and Fox as possibilities.  But LTT and Bushel Beaty seem really raw.  I just dont see the next Lewan, Long, Schofield 6'6-6'8 monsters in the upcoming classes.  My bet is on Magnuson as the best option if he adds the weight.  Whose your guess on each side?
6 days 16 hours ago	Just another reminder how	Just another reminder how much the last 50 years have sucked in Cleveland. Sigh I hope Michigan comes through soon.
1 week 10 hours ago	I wouldn't.  I just don't	I wouldn't.  I just don't think his attitude is appealing to 17 year olds as it would be to guys like Patrick Willis.  Granted I'm spoiled by Hoke n Company Realty
1 week 11 hours ago	Harbaugh in a michigan	Harbaugh in a michigan uniform was the man.  Harbaugh ripping on his alma mater, ducking the head coaching job, and being related kinda sorta to Crean makes him a dick.  Everytime he quotes Bo these days it pisses me off.  He's not worthy in my mind.
2 weeks 5 days ago	Isn't Meyer the one with the	Isn't Meyer the one with the heart problems?  Quit ragging on our coaches when Mattison, at 63, has a better ticker and more youth than all the younglings coaching at Ohio.
7 weeks 6 days ago	Note to fellow alumni	Oh quit your alumni whining.  I paid 200k to go to michigan for undergrad.  So yes, people who didnt go to michigan or are now rich alumni can pay large sums because the demand is there.  So let the kids enjoy the "student section" while they are in fact still paying tuition.  I could care less if its full at kickoff.  Were talking about college sports for college kids.  And all I remember about the "alumni section" is a bunch of old farts who never stood up or who bitched about people standing up.  Could never get the wave going either. And fergodsake, if student section is the source of our home field advantage then alumni need to quit complaining about  how appropriate their chants are (i.e you suck).  Get over it.  Now as an alumnus I truly despise the shit students get.  Ok now go back to your usual whine fest and negging anyone with courage to tell you off.  College used to be about students, I wish DB hadnt made it a battle of money.
8 weeks 6 days ago	I've been saying Ray Lewis	I've been saying Ray Lewis from day 1.  Both are 6'1 and make you second guess football as your line of work when they hit you.  And IIRC Mattison used that comparison when recruiting Ross.
8 weeks 6 days ago	BSU	Boise State begs to differ.  They certainly found some gems in the middle of no where.
9 weeks 3 days ago	Thank god BTN confirmed it	Thank god BTN confirmed it cuz I was a little shaky on the other 8 sources this past week.
10 weeks 5 days ago	I'm pretty sure when Trey	I'm pretty sure when Trey burke shot The Trey, Beilein was not thinking about the winner of FGCU/Florida.  Let's just stick to thinking about cuse and go from there.  I trust Beilein and this entire team to do what they need to do and we should just enjoy watching. Mk?
11 weeks 14 hours ago	I don't condone his behavior.	I don't condone his behavior.  But hell, I had a number of coaches who did just this.  Cussed the entire practice, grabbed you by the shirt/jersey, threw a ball at you, belittled you.  Anyone who is saying this is horrible has never played a contact sport.  Had a coach make us run at halftime once until someone puked.  Coaches scream, coaches throw stuff, coaches act like asses, so either deal with it or dont play.  The only reason this story makes national news is because he coaches for a large university and has players that think they deserve special treatment.  The John Beiein way is always better.
11 weeks 5 days ago	No sportsbooks anywhere in	No sportsbooks anywhere in the US except Nevada.  New Jersey is trying to pass it despite federal law but hey Chris Christie has done worse.  Howeva, Caesars across the border in Windsor has a sportsbook.  Have to do a 2 game parlay minimum that's how they get you.  Online is hit or miss.  If you're a US citizen then goodluck getting withdrawals.  I think it's too risky since it is technically illegal for US citizens on I believe most sites. Depends on the country of origin.  And yes, if you're still wondering, Hi my name is mgoblueben and I'm a degenerate gambler...
12 weeks 12 hours ago	How often has a team had to	How often has a team had to beat three 1 seeds?
12 weeks 1 day ago	PUMPED!	Devin is primed for a hellava season.  Gallon? GALLON!
12 weeks 1 day ago	Mike Martin benching 500 at 4	Mike Martin benching 500 at 4 reps is more impressive to me.  Especially to be athletic and not a fat midgot. Plus his arms are more than 3 inches long.
17 weeks 8 hours ago	Refs blow another game in	Refs blow another game in favor of staee.  Can't believe they call the flagrant against watford but there's "not enough evidence" to call that against Nix.  Fergodsakes the one against watford lost them the shooting foul, possession, AND two free throws to state.  B1G refs are a joke.
17 weeks 11 hours ago	Between the Zoltan Mesko	Between the Zoltan Mesko Foundation and Hope for Pahokee I'm just damn proud to be a wolverine and know that our players go on to do great things off the field.
18 weeks 11 hours ago	He's got offers from Alabama,	He's got offers from Alabama, Notre Dame, and State.  He's won state titles.  I think the 16 year old has proven himself to this point.  It's not whether he impoves if he gets an offer It's whether the coaches want a QB like him.
18 weeks 12 hours ago	Since the 2009 and 2010	Since the 2009 and 2010 seasons I have refused to watch Gibbons kick.  Even while at the Sugar Bowl and MSU game I closed my eyes and made my buddy tell me when it was over.
18 weeks 3 days ago	That's it. I'm muting the tv.	That's it. I'm muting the tv.
18 weeks 3 days ago	Worst call I've seen all	Worst call I've seen all season on that Stauskas drive.  I played that over and over. Can't stand this "best officiating crew in the country" bs
18 weeks 3 days ago	Horford sucks.  Undersized,	Horford sucks.  Undersized, bad hands, can't pass when he's double teamed.  rather have a hurt morgan.
22 weeks 4 days ago	Holy inferiority complex batman!	You mean to tell me that 200-300 lb men on steroids running into each other for money has led to phsyical impairment!!!  There was a reason parents dont let their kids play football in high school, no wonder 15-20 years of bashing your head isn't good for your health.
22 weeks 6 days ago	HE'S BACK OH SWEET JESUS HE'S	HE'S BACK OH SWEET JESUS HE'S COMING BACK!!!
25 weeks 1 day ago	This guy	He gets it.  That's all I wanted to say.  It takes one MOD to say hey, fix the title.  Otherwise thanks for the opinion about michigan players on a michigan blog and thats all that's needed.
