Tim Hardaway and Trey Burke weren't really high-profile players, nor was Darius Morris, and all were high-profile players. "We're still looking at 'who is the best fit.' "

Nice, thanks for the feedback.

2 years 24 weeks ago Do the players actually drink

Do the players actually drink chocolate milk post workout?

I always thought when the players referred to post workout "chocolate milk" that they were actually drinking a protein shake or something along those lines.

Milk also contains casein protein which is a good, slow-digesting protein. 

2 years 25 weeks ago Or...

Let's just call Oregon Wally.

Or maybe it's the "OH NO YOU DIDN'T!" face?

2 years 25 weeks ago They were undersized the last

They were undersized the last couple years but it's amazing what actually having mostly upperclassmen on the O-Line can do for a team. Those couple years of S&C and nutrition can really help pack on the quality pounds. Lewan being the exception of course, though he did have a red shirt year behind him.

2 years 25 weeks ago To add to this point, no one

To add to this point, no one has mentioned the fact that Big Will was just recently moved to O- Line right? 6'5" 331. Thassa big boy.

Will he be athletic enough to be effective or is he about to be a major bust? I bought into the hype about him when he signed and I've been disappointed he hasn't been a factor on either side of the ball yet.

2 years 25 weeks ago Thanks

Thanks for posting this. I remember seeing a similar comparison a while back and I too am sick of hearing the same "he recruits small linemen" meme.

2 years 26 weeks ago Any of these kickers eligible?

Photobucket Gotta be worth a shot at this point.

2 years 27 weeks ago Thank you!

Nice. Also, helluva tag line sir.

Share your view on this. As I was reading the comment above thinking "Noooooooo. DON'T SAY IT!"

2 years 27 weeks ago Holy crap!

I OMG'd out loud. I forgot how ridiculous that game was. By ridiculous I mean AWESOME. Gives a whole new meaning to "running the ball to bleed the clock."

2 years 27 weeks ago Best...

Best tag line I've seen in a while +1 to you sir.

2 years 27 weeks ago Oh Em Ghee

Truly fantastic work! Thank you for all the great info.

2 years 28 weeks ago Thank you for starting this

Thank you for starting this conversation. I can't stand Pat Caputo.

Whether it's his stuttering and mumbling, or the way he ALWAYS interrupts and cuts off callers only to restate his own opinion, or the fact that he keeps hating on Michigan. I've been bitching about this guy since he's been on 97.1 The Ticket. I am forced to change the station when he is on. I actually feel bad for Dennis Fithian the way Pat owns the show and dominates the expressed opinions, while discounting anything Dennis says.

That's my Pat Caputo rant… I'm gonna go smash a radio and take a nap.

Looks like he's saving a crumb for later.

The Braylon beard is truly epic though.

"How can you say 8-4 is a great season!?!?! ...RABBLE RABBLE… This is MICHIGAN!!! RABBLE RABBLE… we should NEVER go 8-4 and be ok with it….where's my torch and pitch fork?"

I'm pretty partial to the maize out. However, as long as you can get enough participation one way or the other it would be kick ass. The night game is gonna be total shenanigans! Can't wait. 

 

2 years 33 weeks ago Another view, if it pleases the court.

Photobucket

2 years 33 weeks ago Quality Post

Good analysis. When they showed the Time Of Possession last night I had to laugh at how quickly we score. I like Rasmus' "feast or famine" correlation, well put.

Also just another note, props for charting that school to the south in lower case letters. I usually prefer o$u.

As long as it's not Dr. Pepper (with a KISS or Lil' KISS) of Cherry. I hate those ads.

2 years 34 weeks ago I think another reason there

I think another reason there are so many “Wal-Mart Wolverines” (Myself included) is the fact that the University of Michigan is a difficult school academically in which to be accepted. I am a Wayne State graduate and lifelong University of Michigan sports fan. Unlike my sister who went to U of M, I sort of always knew it wouldn’t be in the cards for me due to my grades and test scores. I don't think this should make me exclusively a Wayne State athletics fan and somehow ineligible to be a Michigan fan.

How many Spartans were Michigan fans until they attended MSU and changed their allegiance?

This, combined with a very successful, perennial conference powerhouse football team with a VERY large fan base, makes Spartans envious of the fact that the fans who did not attend either university choose the traditionally more successful of the two.

2 years 34 weeks ago Great post

It's great to see I'm not the only one who wants to thrust a rusty spoon directly into my eardrum at the sound of this thing's voice. Also as mentioned above her not knowing WTF she is talking about while slaughtering players names.

I guess someone had to post THIS so it might as well be me...

My seats were row 60 on the South end of the stadium. It was nice being able to hear the band and the RAWK music. Of course there was a bit of a delay but it's worth it to hear "The Victors" blasting proudly across the stadium.

Devin - "We think that Devin has proven that he's ready to play." He's at the point where he'll help win games this year.

 

Very interesting.
