15 hours 50 min ago	"the reason Borges never	"the reason Borges never feared to use stack formations so often, since you can trust Gallon will get into his route cleanly and not slow up the other guys' routes." While I generally agree, it looked to me like part of the issue with the two point conversion against Ohio, was Gallon got jammed and did not get into his route cleanly.

1 day 7 hours ago	For those saying bb because	For those saying bb because NC are hard to come by, does this mean you wouldn't trade for anything less than a NC in football? Would you take wins against MSU, Iowa and Ohio over Louisville? That would put us at 11-1 going to B1G CG.

1 day 15 hours ago	The only way I see Ohio	The only way I see Ohio getting passed is if the squeek by MSU on some fluke or have something like big fight results in suspending players for NCG (like that would happen) that casts a doubt on their ability to make the NCG even close.  That is the ideal for me, but not sure it is possible.  Maybe more realistic is Ohio crushes MSU and goes to the NCG, but MSU falls far enough in the polls that they are not BCS eligible.

3 days 11 hours ago	While I get the sentiment,	While I get the sentiment, there is a difference between stepping in as an interim and taking the reins long term. I know nothing of Orgeron's ability to run a program, but this seems to be a case of looking longer term.

If so, wonder if Delaney will do so to Ohio for the B1G CG with Ohio having a real chance to go to the NCG. Looked to me on the replay that a few more players threw punches than were ejected.
4 days 19 hours ago	You make a generalization	You make a generalization that it is a "generational" thing based off your perception that most posts that start off saying they're long time fans make negative points. I think you may be sort confusing correlation with causation. People who start their negative posts in the manner you suggest are doing so to give their negative opinion some weight. That is, my opinion is right because I've watched a lot of M football. That doesn't mean that everyone, or even most, folks that have watched for a similar length of time share that opinion.

1 week 2 hours ago	Seems like we'd be better off	Seems like we'd be better off with depth at qb. I realize we'll be pretty young at wr next year, but Gardner has pretty limited experience there too.
1 week 2 hours ago	Seems like not having tape	Seems like not having tape would be a bigger advantage if the guy you're bringing in is more mobile than the one he is replacing. I'm not so sure it is as much of an advantage the other way.

1 week 20 hours ago	To the extent Brandon felt he	To the extent Brandon felt he needed to give Hoke a vote of confidence, it seems like it should have been way shorter. Along the lines of: "Hoke is the right guy for the job. We're not doing as well at this juncture as I, or M supporters, would like. But getting this program to where it belongs is a process that takes awhile. A big part of that is recruiting and we've done a great job there from California to Peppersville, err,e I mean NJ. Brady Hoke is the right man for the job and will ultimately be remembered as one of the great coaches at Michigan." Throwing RR and Borges under the bus by omission was, imo, was unnecessary and classless.

1 week 2 days ago	"Did Brady take a timeout he	"Did Brady take a timeout he shouldn't have that lost a game (Les MIles).". No. But he didn't take a timeout he should have against PSU that resulted in a costly 5 yd delay of game. 27 for 27. After the first 25 you think they would've figured out it wasn't going to work. Sure a few of the losses were close, but so were a few of the wins. Took +3 in to margin to keep Iowa close. NW had to drop 4 pretty easy interceptions. I think we we ahead on to margin against Neb.
