    Their high school coaches and AAU coaches have probably a better appreciation of Michigan than maybe they had before," Beilein said. "It's a tough balance right now. Tim Hardaway and Trey Burke weren't really high-profile players, nor was Darius Morris, and all were high-profile players. "We're still looking at 'who is the best fit.' "

loop...I opened this thread expecting to read/see Cabrera kicking some random fan in the face for spouting off on why he didn't hit 4 homers last night.

3 days 22 hours ago Thanks for the help!

Gotta think THJ is definitely moving up the board!

3 days 23 hours ago Burke showing well at

the combine and looks to be a lock for a top 5 draft pick, but that seemed to be a given regardless of his combine performance.  Hardaway showed well yesterday but have not heard if that has helped his stock, anyone else hear of Hardaway moving up some mock draft boards?

4 days 4 hours ago Penn State a night game?

Penn State a night game?

4 days 4 hours ago Very true!

And with Michigan athletic apparel one of the best sellers around the price for the contract has got to go up. 

I know it's been said time and again but the Adidas gear has left a lot to be desired.  So please bring your 'A' game Nike and Under Armour when the time comes!

4 days 4 hours ago I'll piggy-back off your comment and add that

DB also mentioned that contract will be up in 3 1/2 years and will be looked at like all other contracts.  You could tell that it's a contract DB is not happy with when he said something to the effect of "it was set before my time here." 

Something tells me Adidas will no longer be come another 3 1/2 years, but that has to be obivious...right?

2 weeks 22 hours ago A quick search on mgoblue.com

then I looked at the born date and died date...May 26, 2012 for both.  Had to check for myself and low and behold Mr. Freihofer was born August 28, 1922.  His obituary had this little gem in it as well:

"Walter proceeded to the University of Michigan, Ann Arbor, where he played football under legendary coach Fritz Crisler and made many life-long friends"

 

4 weeks 5 days ago I've heard Hoke say this as well...

but just can't wrap my head around the fact that JMFR will have been 7-7 1/2 months removed from the ACL tear if he's to come back for the MSU game.  I want to be optimistic about his return, but certainly don't want to get my hopes up either.

After hearing some tidbits from bowl practices it would be nice to get some of that breakaway speed in the backfield.  Not sure how well he would do breaking tackles though and this may be a moot point if Green comes in and is the best thing since Wheatley.

22 weeks 42 min ago Helmets not so bad

Helmets not so bad, jerseys are bad but something I noticed before, and it may be something small, is the "Riddel" on the helmets in red.  I know the front one usually has MICHIGAN but the back stays with the red "Riddel", can that be changed to blue?  Is there something saying it can't be changed from red?

how could I not think of that!  Thanks!

25 weeks 6 days ago No Doubt! But...

they'll need to hire a high profile on his way out of coaching type of coach like Holtz (how do you show a lisp while typing?) to transistion the team while the in flux of all that B1G money starts flowing in.

 

26 weeks 3 days ago I'll throw my name in the hat...

but where to begin?  I'll try to make this as short and to the point as possible.  I was born and raised in Ann Arbor and absolutely love watching the maize and blue every single time they play.  I remember playing pee wee ball in Ann Arbor and there were three teams, the Packers, Rams, and Wolverines.  Of course every kid wanted to wear the winged helmet, sadly I got the Packers and remembered being so crushed by the fact I had to play against the Wolverines...just didn't seem right.  Growing up my bedroom was clad in UofM colors wall to wall.  After graduating from Ann Arbor Huron I enlisted into the Marine Corps and told my mom no worries it's peace time.  A couple of years later Desert Shield/Storm happened and i got to spend the '90 season in the desert moving from hole to hole.  I got this cool care package from my family and in it was a picture of my mom on the sidelines of the Michigan v. UCLA game with a stinking ice cream sandwich in her hand...so not only is she killing me with being on the sidelines of a Michigan game but then she has an ice cream sandwich in hand to boot, talk about killing me smalls, geesh!  Anyways, I followed UofM the best I could while in the desert.  I don't remember particulars from that season other than UofM was ranked highly and lost a couple of close games.  After being discharged from the Marines I won tickets to the Colorado hail mary game and took my little brother, who was 8 at the time, to his first M game.  Whle everyone was shocked by the outcome my brother was in full balling mode, just absolutely sobbing uncontrollably.  Took a long while to calm him down.  I then met my wife while she was atttending EMU and she's from Ohio and graduated as an occupational therapist and the SE Mich OT market was flooded with OTs.  So with my bachelor degree in business we moved to Ohio where she was able to find a job.  I did as well and have been in Ohio since '01 and subjected to all sorts of Ohio shenanigans and it didn't help any with M going through the horrible 7 year streak and the '06 loss to Ohio and then RR years was like icing on the cake for people I worked around to talk as much smack as possible.   My home and my work cube leave little doubt as to where my loyalties lie and I wouldn't have it any other way.  After being a Michigan fan my entire life I finally got to go to my first Mich v. Ohio game in '09 and we know that didn't end well but got to go to last years game as well with my brother.  It was definitely sweet to get that win and not have to watch my brother sobbing uncontrollably again.  I have talked with some buddies of going on UofM road trips and we finally did the Purdue game this year, really cool and got to say GO BLUE to Dave Brandon who quickly waved me off with a mumbled go blue of his own, but still cool.  I have wanted to see the shoe, but only if Michigan is playing.  I would love to take my brother but also have thoughts on taking my 8 year old daughter who is the only other M fan in my house and got to take her to her first M game earlier this season against Umass.  Not a great game but I also wanted to take her to a sure win and not have a repeat of a sobbing kid.   My wife is a Ohio fan and I just can't bring myself to take her...it's gotta be a M fan!  She has been cool about things though and got me an authentic Michigan helmet last Christmas and an authentic jersey a couple years before that.

Ok, so way longer than I had anticipated.   Good luck to everyone and as always GO BLUE!!!  BEAT OHIO!!!!

Hope you recover quickly.

42 weeks 3 days ago B1G Logo on Michigan home jersey

While looking for video of Denard's speech on BTN.com I came across this:

Michigan Uniform

Not nearly as bad as I thought it would be.  Someone please start a new thread if worthy as I do not have enough points to do so, not to mention this is always way better to look at than the hideous Nebraska things.

42 weeks 4 days ago I believe the 7/27 ticket sale

to be for those that are Michigan insiders or liked the Michigan Facebook page or followers on twitter.  Victors club folks got first crack on the 24th, then season ticket holders I believe yesterday, and tomorrow the insiders sale.  General public will get their crack on the 30th.  Sadly there are no more MSU ticket packs available from what I looked at.  Just the UMASS family pack and individual tickets for Air Force, UMASS, Northwestern and Iowa.

43 weeks 18 hours ago Let's see how they look on the field!

Remember last year when the UTL unis were revealed...massive freak out ensued and then the game happened and the jerseys, IMO, turned out great.  While I was meh on the UTL jersey I did like the way they looked during the game.  These new ones, however, are even more MEH for me, but will ultimately hold off my final opinion when I see them on the field.
