From his picture on 24/7 think they'd be obsessed with him.  Laying in the weeds I guess.

He's not married.  His first wife died of breast cancer and he divorced his second wife.  He does like to tailgate apparently.

 

Ohio State University President E. Gordon Gee’s discretionary spending from Oct. 1 2007 through June 30, 2012:

Travel: $1.09 million

Tailgating: $813,000

President’s special events: $2.17 million

President’s office: $1.6 million

Residence operation: $2.1 million

Grand Total: $7.77 million

It would be better if there was a threshold that you could change depending on what types of posts you wanted notifications for. Something like:

All MGOblog board posts
All frontpage posts
All diary posts
All posts with Kate Upton and/or muppets

3 weeks 1 day ago Thank you to all those who

Thank you to all those who have served our country in the past, to those that currently serve and to those that will serve in the future.  

On a side note (not meaning to criticize the OP), is it appropriate to say "happy" memorial day?  Seems like it should be something more measured.

3 weeks 1 day ago I think Rutgers will be ok.

I think Rutgers will be ok.  They'll always be in that second-tier of Big 10 schools, but that's better than being in the second-tier of the Big East.  With the Big 10 network, games are always televised, and you also have the chance to play teams like Michigan and Ohio State, which they can sell recruits on much more than they could in the Big East.  Rutgers will have games on national TV, it's been a while since that happened.  I think that they'll be more like Iowa than Indiana.  

BTW, did the Big 10 mandate anything about changing the Maryland jerseys before admission into the conference?  Those things are turrible.

3 weeks 1 day ago That's a brutal schedule they

That's a brutal schedule they have for 2013 (if you're the 110th ranked team). 

4 weeks 4 days ago I also want to kick their

I also want to kick their asses badly, if for no other reason that not doing so would be a disaster.  I would not have scheduled the rematch.  In fact the fact that it is a "rematch" highlights why it was such a bad idea to schedule them the first time.

4 weeks 4 days ago Even the alumni might not

Even the alumni might not show up on time for that lineup.

4 weeks 5 days ago Denard will have a better NFL

Denard will have a better NFL career than Tim Tebow because:

1. He has speed that sets him apart

2. He's willing/more able to adapt his game to do whatever is required to play

3. He graduated from the University of Michigan

Go Blue!

4 weeks 5 days ago Blaine Gabbert isn't very

Blaine Gabbert isn't very good and Chad Henne isn't great either.  IMO, there probably isn't a team in the league where Denard would have a better shot at seeing time at QB than Jacksonville.

5 weeks 1 day ago According to the unofficial

According to the unofficial two-deep, disappointing, but not overly surprising. Best of luck to this kid wherever he ends up.

7 weeks 1 day ago As a Blues fan, I'm expecting

As a Blues fan, I'm expecting the Kings to sweep us. They killed us in three games so far this year, and have won 8 straight. At this point I'm hoping we can just keep game 1 close so that we have something to build momentum on.

7 weeks 1 day ago IMO, GA won't work. Some

IMO, GA won't work. Some a-holes will send pledges at the crack of dawn to "reserve" the front rows and then the rest can show up much later and to fill in. Plus, Seems to me (from the pics) the problem is at the top of the stadium, and that GA won't fix that problem. I think you have to fix the entrance issues for the student section so that people can get in on time. Maybe a current student can comment on how long you'd have to wait in line to get into the section.

I agree with the students on the board that this GA change is bs for the seniors. That said, you're comenting on a Michigan blog in the spring, so I doubt you're part of the low/late attendance problem that this change is intended to solve. .

7 weeks 2 days ago Yes, but that was a

Yes, but that was a cocain-aided 4.3 40.

8 weeks 3 days ago It's not like Indiana is

It's not like Indiana is playing for the Big ten championship every year as it is. I think they'd rather be in the division with those teams because it will help sell tickets.

Too bad oversigning didn't help you beat Syracuse.

Or Larry Brown for that matter.

17 weeks 3 days ago Eeeeeee Eeeeeeeeee.

Eeeeeee Eeeeeeeeee.

18 weeks 2 days ago Sounds like this isn't good,

Sounds like this isn't good, but this kid is a 2014 recruit and chances are Urban leaves Ohio for somewhere else before this kid plays a game for them. With our recruiting over the past couple of years, the OL and DL are probably going to be the strengths of our team, so missing out on onr DL recruit doesn't seem like the end of the world to me.

18 weeks 3 days ago Also give us #5 RB and TE

Also give us #5 RB and TE classes.

Great work.  This list is amazing.
