4 days 4 hours ago Given Mitchell's mobility

Given Mitchell's mobility he'll be a great fit in Doeren's system. Watch NIU the last couple of years with Harnish and Lynch and you'll see what I mean.

3 weeks 1 day ago Cincinnati

I think there's one more domino to fall and that's Cincinnati.  They and somebody will be in either the Big 12 or the ACC before this is all over.  I think either the Big 12 takes Cincinnati and Boise State or the ACC gets over their fight with Connecticut and takes UConn and UC.  IMO.

3 weeks 5 days ago BHGP strikes again! That was

BHGP strikes again! That was an awesome read. "Old Smelly Pete Shovels Peat With Ira and Ida."

10 weeks 5 days ago That's the first time I

That's the first time I actually got a chance to see the altercation. Few quick thoughts ...

- Meyer was cleared by the NCAA
- Tom Crean is human. He took over a top notch program that was in the ditch. He blames everyone, even those cleared by the NCAA, for it being in the sewer. He let out some frustrations. That's human, especially in the kind of drama as we saw. He probably felt some serious relief afterwards.
- He's human but he's also a professional. For average Joe to step out of his way to berate another he blames for some problems is understandable; for a head coach of a top NCAA program to do the same is embarrassing. Embarrassing for IU and a bad example for his players.
- I hope the hatchet is buried between the two now.
- John Belein is a class act.
- Jeff Meyer will someday be a great head coach. We'll keep him as long as possible but I see it as inevitable that he's eventually going to be head coaching elsewhere. Best of luck when that day comes.
- IU's AD probably had a nasty talk with his head coach on a day that should have been celebratory.
- The IU crowd will quickly forget this.
- The Michigan players won't. Sucks to be Crean next time he plays against the Maize and Blue.

11 weeks 2 days ago The researchers tested a lot

The researchers tested a lot of players but from only three teams. To me that raises some red flags regarding the validity of the study. The three teams could be teams that don't have the attention to injury that many others have. If 67 players is the number then it should have been far more teams, like 10 or more.

14 weeks 1 day ago And the MAC does not change.

And the MAC does not change. Completely stable through this entire realignment confusion.

14 weeks 1 day ago Maybe I should start doing

Maybe I should start doing work at work and quit reading MGoBlog ... I am cracking up over here!!

15 weeks 4 days ago I find it oddly funny that

I find it oddly funny that when I opened an article about Alabama football, there was an ad for taking your GED tests for free.

16 weeks 1 day ago I'd say middle linebacker.

I'd say middle linebacker.  You can judge the athleticism easily, but the mentality of the position is very difficult to gauge.  One can be a great athlete but not an overly smart defender and be a fantastic high school MLB, but it takes a lot of smarts to excel at the college level.

16 weeks 2 days ago First Michigan game I ever

First Michigan game I ever watched! What an ending.

18 weeks 1 day ago I'm no Skins fan (Go Ravens!)

I'm no Skins fan (Go Ravens!) but I think that would be sweet. With that stacked backfield formation they use I think Denard could be deadly. His speed combined with the power that formation gives you would be awesome to watch.

18 weeks 5 days ago You're correct. He can work

You're correct. He can work out the NCAA limit and if he wants to work out a ton more on his own time, there's no way the NCAA can restrict that. But when you've got a practice schedule and an academic schedule, along with eating and sleeping, there won't be a ton of time for more workouts.

18 weeks 5 days ago Call it a blessing in

Call it a blessing in disguise. When the kid gets to USC he will be held to all practice and conditioning regulations, plus will be required to study and complete his academic requirements. He gets six months of no restrictions on how much he works out, plus minimal other responsibilities. If I were him I would lift, run, repeat. When he gets to campus for summer camp he could be the most physically fit of the incoming freshmen.

Still a douche move though.

FSU got away with a massive pass interference there.

A huge percentage of South Carolina fans consists of gorgeous girls. No complaints watching this game.

31 weeks 2 days ago Bowling Green has BooBoo

Bowling Green has BooBoo Gates, plus they had a player a few years ago named Ali Alaboody.  Cincinnati has Munchie Legaux.

33 weeks 3 days ago Purdue and Oregon played a

Purdue and Oregon played a home and home in 2008/09.  At Purdue in 2008, Oregon won in multiple overtimes.  At Oregon in 2009, Oregon won on the final play.  Purdue didn't go to a bowl game either year, while Oregon in 2008 demolished OK State in the Holiday Bowl and won the Pac 10 and went to the Rose Bowl in 2009.  There's no reason to think an Oregon / Purdue mathcup this year wouldn't be another excellent matchup since Purdue is significantly better this year.

1 year 19 weeks ago 2008 Boise State season

2008 was supposed to be a down year. They lost a senior QB albeit a one year starter, had a freshman QB to break in, had some senior WR and senior defensive talent to replace, and all they did was go 12-0 and knock off Oregon at Autzen stadium in the process. I think they'll be just fine this season.

1 year 20 weeks ago Meyer was also a hell of a

Meyer was also a hell of a coach at Bowling Green and Utah.  He didn't have Tebow at either of those.

However, who Meyer didn't have when things started to fall apart at Florida is Dan Mullen.  I believe Meyer is a great head coach but guys like Gregg Brandon, Charlie Strong, and Dan Mullen have been key to his success.  Without Mullen coaching Tebow and running the offense in 09, it was a bit sluggish, and in 2010, it was just bad.

1 year 28 weeks ago Last week NIU ...

Last week NIU beat UT 63 - 60.  One minute in and its 7 all.  Should be a good one!

1 year 35 weeks ago I thought that with the Texas

I thought that with the Texas or Rutgers to Big Ten talk several years ago.  As a college football fan and a fan of the six power conferences, seeing the Big East and Big 12 dissolve in a matter of days is truly disheartenting, but I saw this coming years ago and I figured Nebraska and Colorado splitting from the Big 12 was the first domino to fall.

1 year 35 weeks ago Stereotypical OSU fan

Sadly, this is the stereotypical OSU fan. Car burning, cursing, asking for where the QB lives, classless fan. Yet another reason I'm glad I don't live in that state.

1 year 51 weeks ago Here's what I took away from

Here's what I took away from it ... boosters and a tattoo artist had control of this program through the last few years, not Jim Tressel.  As a coach, he is to be in control of his team, and he completely lost that control.  It wasn't just a few guys in one year; it was multiple guys over his entire head coaching tenure getting money, tattoos, cars, and illegal drugs.

I was not disappointed one bit.  Good, good read.  I believe, though, that more will come to light as NCAA investigators sniff around.

1 year 51 weeks ago I had just woken up, saw it

I had just woken up, saw it on espn.com on my phone and gasped.  Read the article and had one thought ... maybe he would be a good Auburn QB coach.

1 year 51 weeks ago Ohio kids will still dream of

Ohio kids will still dream of wearing the scarlet and grey.  That will not change, even if the article in SI is as severe as we're all hoping.  However, if the NCAA docks them a bunch of scholarships a la USC, then yeah TSIO takes a hit with instate recruiting, no doubt.

1 year 51 weeks ago So how long until Terrelle

So how long until Terrelle Pryor and the rest of the Tat 5 and also Ray Small get death threats?

1 year 51 weeks ago Today could turn out to be

Today could turn out to be Christmas + New Years + St. Patrick's day all in one!

 

But why, why, why does this all have to come on Memorial Day?  There's WAY more important meanings to today than watching Columbus burn down.

1 year 51 weeks ago Exactly.

Exactly right on.  Texas Tech cleaned the house after the Mike Leach business.  Alabama cleaned house after the Price mess.  Miami has cleaned the house on multiple occasions.  I expect Ohio State to do the same.
