15 weeks 1 day ago	She's definitely got	a bit of the "Stifler's Mom" thing going on.
30 weeks 5 days ago	OP is catching some grief, but he has a point.	A lot of these high  profile guys that  are supposedly close to an early commitment but drag it out through the whole process never seem to end up here.
31 weeks 6 days ago	Too bad Mr I wasn't the owner when Morris played.	I guarantee Mr. I would have never let him leave town.
32 weeks 4 days ago	Recruits like Treadwell	that are supposedly close to committing early in the process, but drag their recruitment on to the end almost never end up at Michigan.   Diamond from last year comes to mind and numerous others from past years.  I will be shocked, but pleased, if he ends up wearing the winged helmet.
33 weeks 5 days ago	Borland is a monster.	So THAT is how linebackers are supposed to play.
1 year 10 weeks ago	Iverson was a much more explosive leaper than Burke.	Iverson had several impressive dunks over bigs in his college career.  I think Burke is a great player and can get to the basket well, but I think we may be jumping the gun a little bit on that comparison.
1 year 13 weeks ago	Agree about Hightower...he is awful.	I know a guy who is good friends with Ted Hillary, who used to do a lot of B1G games with Hightower.  Hillary said a lot of Hightower's fellow officials thought so much of his abilities they called him "Lowtower".    I do not recall seeing Eddie do any games this year.  I wonder if he finally retired.  I used to cringe every time I saw him do a Michigan game....especially when on the road.
1 year 20 weeks ago	LOL at Dantonio cleaning up MSU.	He suspended Robinson for one whole play.   What a hardass!!
1 year 27 weeks ago	Yeah, that didn't look good.	Hate to see kids get injured, regardless of who they play for.
1 year 28 weeks ago	I have seen Braden in several games this year and	while he is definitely enormous and agile, the next time I see him play with a nasty streak will be the first.
1 year 28 weeks ago	I wonder how kids	victimized by Sandusky since 2002 and their families feel about Paterno and McQueary continuing to coach.
1 year 31 weeks ago	Am I alone (and maybe wrong) for	wanting to see how the game would have played out differently if Harbaugh was on the U-M sideline instead of Hoke?  I dare say #2 would have left the field on a stretcher and the post-game handshake would have definitely been must-see TV.  Saturday might have been as good of a time for a less-than-classy response to the MSU thuggery as I have ever seen.
1 year 33 weeks ago	Leyland drives me nuts with his early bunts.	You especially don't do it against a crappy pitcher.  I could understand the argument if we had JV on the mound against CC, but not tonight when runs are likely to be plentiful.  That move is going to cost them.
1 year 33 weeks ago	I live in the Rockford district and have seen Braden	play several times.  I completely agree with your assessment.  His size is legit and I think he has room to carry 20+ lbs more without much problem.  His tenacity does seem to be a bit lacking, but competition level may have something to do with that.  Unfortunately, the remaining games on Rockford's schedule are with the bottom three in the OK Red.  I'll be curious to see if the level of intensity increases come playoff time.
1 year 33 weeks ago	I am friends with one of the GRC assistant coaches	and he told me that MSU is still in the picture with Harris, but he is far from the "MSU Lock" a lot of MSU fans think he is.  My friend said the ND game really left an impression on Drake.
1 year 40 weeks ago	Brown may be the sleeper recruit in the class so far.....	at least as much of a sleeper as a 4* can be anyway.  I'm excited to see that athleticism at the DE position.
2 years 8 weeks ago	Mateen Cleaves makes me want to	jam ice picks into my ears.
2 years 9 weeks ago	I know I didn't vote for him.	I voted Henton, Kearney, Brundidge in that order.   Anderson's numbers weren't that great considering the level of competition.  I can't see him being a huge contributor at MSU next year.
2 years 10 weeks ago	Freddie and the Seven Dwarves	I still have my jersey from that team.  Tony, Scott, Mark, Eric, Gerard, any of you guys out there?
2 years 10 weeks ago	Generally, a 1-3-1 is more effective when	you have a lot of length on the perimeter to prevent the long cross-court and skip passes and are able to close out on shooters better.   The 1-3-1 is very easy to attack when you can go over the top of it.
2 years 13 weeks ago	I work with a guy who is good friends with a prominent	Big 10/NCAA basketball official.  Even other officials know that Hightower is awful.  In fact, some of the other officials refer to him as "Low tower".  How that guys continues to get prominent gigs is way beyond me.  He has been awful forever.
2 years 32 weeks ago	They generally have games running on the big screen	at CP.  The screen is in a good spot near the entrances to Mantis and M-Force.
2 years 33 weeks ago	Why would TP come to Michigan	just to be 2nd string?  : )
2 years 34 weeks ago	I'd be willing to bet a	I'd be willing to bet a healthy sum of money that RR has a few plays drawn up with two QBs on the field at the same time.  Makes me drool thinking of the possibilities.
2 years 35 weeks ago	Only got a 7.5 from the	Only got a 7.5 from the Russian judge.
2 years 47 weeks ago	Saltillo, Mexico	If your travels ever take you to Saltillo, you must stop at this little place called Casa del Caballo....and no they don't serve horse meat.  I've had the best brisket and ribeye at that place.
3 years 37 weeks ago	Keep in mind	that AA Pioneer and EK are two of the six largest high schools in Michigan with enrollments of 2600 or so. Inkster's enrollment is around 1100 and they play two divisions lower. They weren't exactly playing the little sisters of the poor. EK is one of the better teams in arguably the best conference in the state, the OK Red, which includes defending state champs in Div 1 (Rockford) and Div 2 (Muskegon).
