Really, I don't really care what happens to Barwis. He's a nice guy that did good things for the Mealer family that should never be forgotten, but there are many equal or better stength and conditioning coaches out there. I haven't been impressed with our players getting pushed around and man handled like they were the last 3 years. For some reason everyone thinks of him as some sort of legend, but that is really unfounded.
I'm proud of the team, happy for the players, and happy for the win. But does one win change my mind about RR? No it doesn't Mgoliteral. He can put up points, but he cannot stop anybody.
I'd like to give a pat on the back to Demens, Avery, Vinopal. Those 3 guys I think played above themselves today. For all their lack of experience, they made some key plays.
Posters like wolverine318 really lead to the demise of this forum. Wolverine318 is idiotic and makes me sick. Why are so many people so willing to accept mediocrity from what is supposed to be a top tier program? This topic was calling it like it is and poses some 100% accurate and indiputable facts about the current and future states of our football program. wolverine318, you sir have failed. as a die hard Michigan fan, i dont want to be associated with you or other so called Michigan fans who think like you. while you are content with being Northwestern and losing to OSU and MSU, i on the other hand want national championships and to beat our rivals.
I agree with you gnarles woodson. I get negged all the time for having a realistic view point. There are a lot of people on here that don't except reality and they neg you for it (look at my points lol). But I would love to see RR succeed myself, but I just don't see it happening anytime soon (the future of the defense isn't looking too bright as of right now).
stupid posts like this annoy me. I hate how some Michigan fans are starting to accept mediocrity. This is year 3 for RR and still we have the worst defense in college football. Why is everyone so willing to give RR a free pass even after 3 years? Everyone is so eager to point out what RR has done in the past, even I used to do that, but the truth is, he hasn't done anything while at the greatest university on the planet. And franlkly, that's all that matters. I would love to see RR succeed and for all this to be a matter of inexperience, but then again, this is year 3 and we shouldn't have these excuses anymore. so that tells me he screwed up in years 1&2.
I agree. I WAS a supporter of RR, but he has really screwed things up. We have had 3 of the worst defenses in Michigan football history and the future still isn't looking to bright as of right now.
Our defense would make Allegany State fans complain.
I still have 2 tickets for section 39. Face value for these tickets is $52. I will accept $45 each for them. I've sat in these seats for many years and have had no problem seeing the action. Email me at [email protected] if you are interested.
His reasoning gives me more reason to believe that Justice Hayes will be picking ND (which is fine with me). If he thought we were going after him pretty hard, it would probably do the same thing to our chances.
What is up with these kids still wanting to go to USC? On top of their probabition, they took in a slew of top receivers last year. Now they have two of the nations best for this year in George Farmer and DeAnthony Arnett favoring them. What is Kiffin selling them?
I need some commitments! I'm going through withdrawals. What are the chances of us landing all 3 of the Fisher, Walsh, and Hobbi combo that visited? I like all three. It seems though as Fisher is the lesser of the three.
Also, since Dee Hart is visiting, could he be on commitment watch as well?
This pisses me right off! What an embarrassment this University is right now! With the state of their program, they can't afford to be shooting themselves in the foot and looking like hypocrites when they offer a kid a scholarship and yank it away as soon as he is ready to come.
I thought Michigan had sort of dropped on his list. Good to see he is willing to see things out. I would love to have him and Dee Hart in this class for our backfield!
Yea I was a little surprised about Jernigan myself. I was under the impression that we don't have much of a chance with him. Same thing for Curtis Grant.
I think I would poop my pants if we got all those guys! I would definitely like to put Newberry on the list as the highest priority DE. He looks like a freak!
Caputo is a really uninformed sports broadcaster. I listen to his station all the time, and he is very poor at what he does. The only thing I consider him an expert in is hockey. When he talks other sports, he really doesn't have much of a clue, especially when it comes to Michigan. I wouldn't take anything he says about Michigan as an informed opinion, but rather an uniformed opinion.
I really have a hard time putting Boise in the top 10. I really don't buy into all their hype. They've never proved anything except for beating an Oklahoma team that wasn't the typical Okalahoma team because they were young and rebuilding again. The Oregon team they beat last year wasn't the same team at the end of the season. I don't think they would stand a chance, literally, against the Bama's, OSU's, Florida's, and USC's of a couple years ago. I think they would lose by 3+ TD's to those types of teams.
Sorry, I just had to go on a small rant about Boise. It drives me nuts every year!
How about the fact that Morgan Trent flat out just couldn't play. He just wasn't good and he and his friend Brandon Harrison were big reason why Michigan has struggled so long in the secondary. Having players with their very limited abilities start for so long severly handicapped our secondary.
I never expected to steal Ziegler from his father. In fact, I think he is better off with his father anyways just for the fact that he is playing for his Dad.
I agree...if Hart can take a visit to Bama without them becoming the front runner...i don't believe they ever will. With Richardson being the real deal, and only a sophmore, playing time may have played a role in him not putting Bama #1.

I wonder if the in school visit today swayed Dee back in our direction. He seems like a very indicisive kid.
He does....except he drops many more and isn't nearly as good. But other wise, yes, he plays the same position.
Hey Captain obvious, if you're so close to the situation, how come you can't even spell Arnett's name right?

Poor decision by Crist. I think he is going to be good at Notre Dame, but that was a youngster mistake.
Nice work everyone!
You guys can rip me all you want...I actually enjoy that because it shows support for Michigan.
But please be accurate. I made Denard an exception. I love how Denard has developed. So to say that I'm ranting about him is inaccurate.

Haha....you guys (gals maybe) are awesome. You made me smile because Michigan certainly didn't.

Commit(s) a-Coming??? As in more than one? Who else besides Jake Fisher?
Detroit is a MUCH MUCH MUCH bigger market than Las Vegas. The Piston's aren't going anywhere. It must be referencing another team.

How did Ricardo do this spring? I don't remember hearing much about his performances.
Awesome!

Pretty sweet!
How is everybody so sure or pretty sure that Dorsey isn't coming? Was there some new news recently that I failed to see?
I was going to say that, but I don't consider myself very knowledgeable on baseball to cast an opinion on that.
