im not the real mike kenn. i

im not the real mike kenn. i should probably make a new account. i have gotten that reaction a couple times. i dont want people to think that this is him.

 

but hey, im open to coaching the o-line lol

its not even that i wasnt

its not even that i wasnt disgusted too. i was equally shocked that hoke wasnt running onto the field to defend his player. hoke looked pretty gutless and just.....dumb. like he looked like he didnt even know what was happening. 

but yeah, i was concerned about morris. he is just a kid and deserves better from his coach. i basically had a mix of thoughts. i was thinking about morris, thinking about hoke, thinking about nuss, wondering what the hell bellomy was doing...he pulled a friday night lights, boobie miles/chris comer "i lost my helmet"...just pathetic from hoke. i agree, its all geting pretty redundant by now. this whole situation just sucks

excellent point. that is

excellent point. that is true. without a doubt the state of the team is playing a factor here. like you said, nobody is going to question that decision if the team is winning. a lot of the reaction here is due to hoke being on the hot seat to begin with.

oh, youre right. i read it

oh, youre right. i read it wrong. i didnt finish reading the whole post. my bad

really? 60-70 years is still

really? 60-70 years is still a long time

for what its worth, i was

for what its worth, i was always a rich rod supporter. the defense never seemed to get going when he was the coach, but i always thought his teams were very entertaining. i always liked the guy and thought he deserved a couple more years. the miss. st. loss was bad, but we were slowly improving 

im sorry, i could have made

im sorry, i could have made it more clear but I certainly understand how important player safety is and i realize that most UM fans know that too. and im not suggesting that nobody was concerned about morris, but lets not pretend that there wasnt a feeling of "hoke screwed this up too". it may have not been the only concern, but many people, and ill admit, myself included, immediately saw this as an opportunity to question hoke. probably not the proudest thing i have ever admitted, but if im being honest, the thought popped into my head. 

 

and as far as the USC thing, i dont really know enough about the situation with kiffin to make an educated comment on the situation. my only point was to make it clear that michigan fans probably arent some special group of people because we seemed to care about the kids health. basically anyone who saw the sequence of events wouldve been worried about morris. 

i get sick every time i think

i get sick every time i think of what we could have been if we kept rich rod. hoke took that team to an 11-2 record and a BCS Bowl win. Yes, mattison and hoke helped the defense and im not sure the defense wouldve been that good under rodriguez, but man, denard and gardner wouldve been deadly as upper classmen under rich rod. ..if only he couldve had anything on defense

doeren had a very impressive

doeren had a very impressive team at NIU. people defintely bought into the system

UM fans arent more ethical

UM fans arent more ethical than other fanbases. to behonest, most fans were probably using the morris situation as an excuse to find yet another reason to fire hoke. yes, there is some concern for morris, i was scared for the kid too, but lets stop acting high and mighty for a minute. anyone with a clue wouldve been concerned for morris if they saw that.

woulda been better to just

woulda been better to just see it at full speed

It wasnt suspension worthy. I

It wasnt suspension worthy. I think a roughing the passer flag was enough. They dont need to suspend the guy

i think its funny that anyone

i think its funny that anyone thinks art briles or kevin sumlin or etc...would want to coach michigan. i guess you could say money is good but thats about it

its kinda weird to see

its kinda weird to see michigan fans questioning anything that happens at penn st considering we allowed our kicker to stay on the team for years after he raped a chick and the school covered it up. like wtf. 

thats true. it does kinda

thats true. it does kinda ruin the way they played michigan once and had the biggest upset ever. they will still always have that game, but it does kinda take away from their win..and id be lying if i didnt say it makes me feel better about that loss...at least a little bit

so michigan fans cant ooh

so michigan fans cant ooh over the other teams catch in a blowout? lol

 

i think she was just gtrying to add to th broadcast and give the app. st fans watching at home something to cheer for. like, that is her job. calm down big dog

damn dude...he was just

damn dude...he was just making a comment on what he saw. sorry he couldnt be there. im happy you had the opportunity to go. geez. calm down. who really cares how full the stadium was? tv is a better experience anyway lol

i hate galloway too but

i hate galloway too but really? a michigan fan calling someone else arrogant? for real?

Im sorry, but i dont think he

Im sorry, but i dont think he is jealous of anything. I mean, he went to Georgia. Was a legend there. I dont think he has a reason to be jealous of michigan

i actually think it would be

i actually think it would be hilarious if michigan loses tomorrow...

stuff like this is why im

stuff like this is why im done following college sports. the high and mighty at michigan are rejoicing over violations at notre dame for things that michigan is certainly guilty of violating right now. what a messed up sport to follow. people find joy in notre dame having violations, but look for ways to defend their own WR sucker punching a kid in the jaw in the same week. i dont know where michigan fans seem to find this moral high horse they sit upon. 

then michigan fans start wondering what effects it will have on recruiting. lmao 

how pathetic. but i guess that is what happens when the team you are following is awful year in and year out. you look for other teams to screw up so that you can find joy in that. what a joke. "its all about the kids" lmao

who cares if ND has academic fraud? its not as if michigan isnt quilty of the same thing. considering michigan is quilty of rape and cover up...

its time to do away with the NCAA football model and just make a minor league for the NFL. 

this is ideal situation. most

this is ideal situation. most of the time you just gotta do whatever you can to bring the guy to the ground. this technique is great, but it rarely happens this way

how many years in a row do

how many years in a row do you have to use a theme like "redemption" until you just decide to go with a theme of "this team sucks"...?

excuses....excuses

excuses....excuses everywhere....

 

michigan football is going downhill fast. firing richrod was the biggest mistakes they ever made. hoke is an awful leader

what happened to just calling

what happened to just calling a the coach, telling him you have decided to commit, and moving on? geez...everyone has to be a "star" nowadays. just like this peppers kid going on TV and rapping. you havent done anything yet. how about you play one snap before you pull crap like that?

college football is getting progressively worse in everyway. i have such little desire to follow it. everything is so wrong. this sport is falling off. nobody schedules good teams, bowl games are stupid, recruiting has become a circus of coaches (and fans/analyists) stalking high school kids, half the conferences are irrelevant. i mean seriously, its about time they just scrap the whole thing and just make a minor league system for the NFL and stop college football. dont even get me started on the money issues. between schools paying kids illegally, kids wanting to get paid, schools refusing to pay the kids, rich white men taking home all the money....this whole thing is a mess.

This looks pretty awesome...

This looks pretty awesome...

This will likely be

This will likely be advertisement space instead of Rise Up everywhere

It is likely that most places

It is likely that most places you see #RiseUp will be advertisements. The interior of the opening in the roof will be a video board that will display many different things. The large display of RISE UP behind the endzone in that one picture will very likey be advertisements.

DeVeon Smith back to #4.

Ty Issac to wear #32....listed as a soph. (Is this because he can still be red shirted from there?)

 

Only other point of interest was "Sanford Robertson Offensive Coordinator/QB Coach" Doug Nussmeier. I knew about the Ira and Nicki Harris Head Football Coach....but I didnt know the OC had that too lol

its a little different than

its a little different than just straight up wearing pink uni's, but we do wear pink in october......lol

shoot, youre right. that was

shoot, youre right. that was funny lol

i read 3 and Out by john

i read 3 and Out by john bacon this past winter and i now find myself wanting to root for arizona football instead of michigan football this fall. i have been a michigan fan all my life (only a college kid) but i have no connection to the school other than watching the football team. since reading this board i have learned that between the snobby alumni, stupid rivalrys, and arrogant attitude in general...i find myself cheering for this team less and less. 

his best opportunity for a

his best opportunity for a professional career in michigan is with the western michigan whitecaps (class A) , not the detroit tigers. until then he can have fun in conneticut and then lakeland flordia

I have never seen anyone with

I have never seen anyone with a negative opinion about The Show. Best sports game on the market. Period. The ps4 verison is amazing. I love it. They always add new features and upgrade things. The developers seem to stay motivated. Being a sports gamer, I know Madden never adds anything or upgrades anything. The Show is the polar opposite. 

ps4. its great. mlb the show

GROUPON....that's The Michigan Difference

Oh so Michigan™ linemen are

Oh so Michigan linemen are just that special? What are you talking about? Watch any NFL game...O-Linemen are grabbing, twisting, pulling faskmasks all game. And it is certainly intentional. Wake up. It is a physical game and the pnly lineman that we had that was actually physical gets ostracized after the season because we need an excuse for how crappy our team was. This is comical. This off-season has shown me why the rest world hates Michigan fans. Some of you people on this board are so ridiculous.

“There’s no question,” Hoke said. “With Taylor, he was a great leader for us, came back for a fifth year where he really didn’t need to do that. Would have been, maybe, the first pick a year ago in the draft. But wanted to come back, help a young offensive line develop and wanted to win a championship at Michigan. Guys make mistakes sometime during their career, but the one thing about Taylor off the field: He was great, as far as we were concerned, in how he handled himself.”

I'm actually not high....And

And again, any evidence to back this claim? You have no actual evidence other than your opinion. You probably say he was "the worst captain ever" because our team wasn't good and you are looking for an excuse. 

I said he was an awesome player (backed by the All-American performances he displayed), he was a first round pick (he was), and that by all accounts he has great character and was a leader (backed by his head coach multiple times http://www.mlive.com/wolverines/index.ssf/2014/05/brady_hoke_defends_ta… // http://www.mlive.com/wolverines/index.ssf/2014/05/brady_hoke_defends_ta… )

You could say he was a big baby, but personally, I'd rather have a captain who gets pissed and assults someone during a loss than a captain who doesn't seem to care.

 

And I'm not sure what you mean by smoke.

Yeah? Care to provide any

Yeah? Care to provide any evidence to back that claim? Other than your own specualtion? haha

If your talking about the facemask against #9 on MSU then you would hate 90% of O-Linemen.

If thats the stuff you're taking issue with then you don't know how football works. That is par for the course. It just happened to be caught on camera and got attention. That happens on every play. Thats football. 

I'm not saying that. I'm

I'm not saying that. I'm saying that you're just throwing out cliches, claiming that Lewan didn't do a good job of meeting the standards of these cliches, and then you fail to back your claims up. How do you know Lewan didn't lead by example? Were you in the locker room? You're judging the man based off your own opinion of a few of his "worst" moments. You are also making assumptions that you probably have no business making.

 

And you know what? Personally, if I were on a football team, and we were playing one of our biggest rivals, and we were getting our asses kicked, and one of our leaders decided that he has had enough and he assulted an opposing player after a play.... I wouldn't really question it. I would be glad to know that my leader isn't gonna lie down and take an ass beating without a fight (literally). Now maybe that says something about the type of person I am, but that's just the way I feel about it.

you have no idea if he was a good leader or not. all you can do is speculate. 

He was a two time

He was a two time All-American....I guess people are just upset that The Team sucks and they feel the need to make excuses. The guy was an awesome player, went in the 1st round of the draft, was by all accounts a great team leader, and a likeable guy (unless you are an OSU fan or a MSU Spartan D-Lineman).
