We either need to invest in…

We either need to invest in NIL or bring someone in who has shown they can achieve more with less. Ideally, we do both, but the latter seems more realistic

First call needs to be to…

First call needs to be to Nate Oats. Make him say "no"

I miss the Bakich baseball…

I miss the Bakich baseball days. Was always so enjoyable to watch because it felt so low stakes and like we weren't even supposed to be there. And yet, there we were in the College World Series

If you have to hire a 3rd…

If you have to hire a 3rd party firm to review your team culture, then you already have your answer on how the team culture is

Fire Juwan and Fire Warde so shit like this stops continuing to happen

You gotta be fucking kidding…

You gotta be fucking kidding me

Zach Smith sucks, but I will…

Zach Smith sucks, but I will choose to believe him in this situation because I want to

A podcast with y'all being high would just be an 1.5 hours of giggling

I mean Marshall was between…

I mean Marshall was between Michigan and OSU and now Hart is probably not coaching anytime soon. This hire seems like almost the best possible coach to keep Marshall around imo. Not sure how you're interpreting this hire negatively in that regard

They arent bashing him…

They arent bashing him publicly and talking shit about how glad they are to see him go.

Uhhh Idk where you've been looking, but they've most certainly been doing this. There's plenty of buckeyes claiming Alford sucks at recruiting, that it was a mutual departure, and that he's the reason why their run game has struggled recently. There is no evidence of any of this at the moment

It's so funny seeing OSU…

It's so funny seeing OSU fans bitch about this on social media as if they didn't poach Mattison and Washington a few years ago and have our signs

In terms of recruiting, it's…

In terms of recruiting, it's a huge upgrade. Alford has also produced some damn good RBs when Day isn't getting cute with his run game. It's been hard to accurately judge how good Alford has been as a coach recently because Day's running scheme has been atrocious and their OL has not been catered to the run game. Those shouldn't be issues with Sherrone imo. Alford's recruiting chops plus a team that actually wants to and does run the ball should be a recipe for success

I'm sorry, but it's hard to…

I'm sorry, but it's hard to take Saban's comments seriously when his dynasty was built off of paying players under the table and cheating in a system where paying players wasn't allowed. While I think the current NIL landscape does need regulation, Saban getting on his high horse and acting righteous as soon as the system stopped benefiting him is not the person I want to listen to

Johnston coming back would…

Johnson coming back would certainly alleviate some of the stress of Sabb leaving. Johnson is playable safety who made some plays for us into the post season. Also, can never have too many veteran leaders on a team

Best situation imo would be…

Best situation imo would be Seattle where he can sit behind Geno for a year and where there's a solid WR corp and good RB corp. Vikings would be solid, but he'd probably be forced into the starting job immediately. I'd like the Broncos and Giants slightly less because their supporting casts aren't great

Hope Hart is alright

In…

Hope Hart is alright

In terms of team impact, I'm specifically worried how this will affect Jordan Marshall. He and Hart were very close and fingers crossed he doesn't ask out of his NLI

Insiders already saying that Moore is going to try to make this a big time / flashy hire

Good for Sherrone

Good for Sherrone

Daniel Jones with better arm talent

There are people who…

There are people who genuinely dislike that JJ meditates before games for whatever reason

Because every coach thinks…

Because every coach thinks they're good at it

 Instead, you have blow…

 Instead, you have blow-hards like Ryan Walters and Bret Bielema standing up and virtue signaling, whining and moaning about how Michigan had this unfair advantage

Which is hilarious since we know both of them had our signs in 2022

It's wild how OSU isn't…

It's wild how OSU isn't being called out by CFB fans for being such a big bitch. Not only do they steal signs themselves, but they hired a PI to try to take us down off the field because they couldn't take us down on the field and took down the whole institution of sign stealing in CFB as a whole in the process. They basically flipped the game board because they were losing. That doesn't even take into account their tampering and Catapult stuff

I find it very entertaining…

I find it very entertaining how this Joe Milton song and dance seems to happen every off season. It seems like only yesterday where people were losing their shit over Milton's performance at the Manning Passing Camp

I mean it makes sense…

I mean it makes sense theoretically. Michigan has at least 3 safeties who want and deserve playing time. Bama just had their star safety tampered and poached by OSU. Bama now has basically a guaranteed starter spot and Michigan and Washington are the only teams with their portals open. Sabb decided to go where he will be guaranteed starter. However, as Sam, Brian, and Seth were saying is it really better to spend your junior year on a brand new team, brand new scheme, and brand new coach? Probably not, but to Sabb he thought it was 

And in classic Michigan…

And in classic Michigan fashion we're gonna play within the old rules even when the new rules allow for rule breaking

I mean insiders were making…

I mean insiders were making a big deal about a potential donation in the "high 6 figures" so that kinda shows what numbers Michigan is working with lol

Warde needs to fired. Him…

Warde needs to fired. Him mismanaging this situation and the Mel Pearson scandal are a 100% fireable offense

Only needed to contact the…

Only needed to contact the recruit once to let him know what the NIL offer was

It's interesting that some…

It's interesting that some of the violations reported seem to kinda infer that there were worse violations going on. 

But the NCAA obviously won't investigate further because self reporting a few minor violations to keep the NCAA off your back as you continue to commit worse violations is a practice as old as the NCAA itself

Sure, we'll probably lose…

Sure, we'll probably lose some guys in spring due to usual attrition, but the if the big fish like Johnson, Graham, Grant, etc. were gonna get a bag and go somewhere else, I think they would've left by now

Don't worry, rival fans have…

Don't worry, rival fans have already moved the goal posts to saying that everyone will leave in spring. We will probably lose some players in spring from usual attrition or guys who don't love the new staff, but if anyone was going to bail for money they would've done so already imo

Johnny Manziel literally…

Johnny Manziel literally said a few days ago that TAMU was trying to pay him $3M to stay for his senior year and that LSU and Bama bagmen were offering him similar money. This was pre-NIL obviously

It's still shocking to me…

It's still shocking to me that Domani Jackson stayed put at Bama after Saban left. Must have gotten enough money for him to want to stay and play under that Frankenstein of a coaching staff that Bama put together

While guys leaving after…

While guys leaving after spring ball is still possible, getting past the initial 30 day portal window after we lost our entire defensive staff is a huge hurdle to overcome

It's funny to me how a week…

It's funny to me how a week or so back Michigan insiders were hyping up a "high 6 figure" NIL donation as if that would have any impact on us keeping our guys when other teams are throwing millions of dollars at single players. If you're in the hunt for a natty, why wouldn't you throw a few million dollars at Mason Graham?

I hate how he's always like …

I hate how he's always like "I was the first one to predict this recruit was going to go to Michigan" when he's right then when he's wrong he's like "Big recruiting loss for Michigan" and that's it

From what it sounds like,…

From what it sounds like, Hart is dealing with some off the field health or family issue and currently doesn't have a contract. Will have to see how this all shakes out

It's amazing how this story…

It's amazing how this story caught traction based off a few OSU and Bama fans just making shit up on Twitter

Which one is Waller ?


Blue…

Which one is Waller ?

Blue long sleeve at 2:54

Soooo still tampering?

Soooo still tampering?

Getting doubled screwed by…

Getting doubled screwed by obvious portal tampering blows

Commits to Bama within a…

Commits to Bama within a week of entering the portal and their Director of Content for their collective made the announcement

Nope, no tampering to see here /s

That was my reaction as well…

That was my reaction as well. 6 figures is not moving the needle in literally any direction. That's not stopping Oregon or Texas or someone like that from coming in an offering a single player a few million dollars

Seth bringing up that UGA's…

Seth bringing up that UGA's collectives are literally money laundering just makes you stop and sigh

If you think going from…

If you think going from Wisconsin to Michigan is a lateral move, then I don't know what to say

Adegoke going from college…

Adegoke going from college GA to NFL position coach in 2 years is crazy. If DeMeco Ryans liked a quality control assistant enough to bring him to his new team and make him a position coach, then that's enough for me

Meanwhile, Warde just…

Meanwhile, Warde just publicly said he hasn't thought about firing Juwan

 “Prior to Jim leaving, I…

 “Prior to Jim leaving, I invested more in our assistant pool. And it really brought it up by a couple of million dollars to invest in our assistant coaches. And so that was done prior to Jim deciding to leave to go to the Chargers and that remains with Sherrone, in terms of that investment.”

Weird, you would think if this was true, it would've yielded more results

It hindsight, he was…

In hindsight, he was probably the only thing making Juwan's teams somewhat decent. If Juwan didn't strike gold with Hunter as a freshman, Juwan's tenure probably would've ended a few years ago

I just have so many…

I just have so many questions right now that I don't think are every gonna get answered:

  • Is CFB that bad now that everyone would rather be in the NFL?
  • Does Harbaugh just not have any NFL connects anymore so he needs to take his college guys?
  • Are these guys getting paid that much more to jump ship? Is that money in LA that worth it?
  • Is there just zero faith that based on our AD that we'll be able to field a competitive team moving forward?
  • Is Harbaugh gutting his former team personal? Because it sure is starting to feel that way at this point
