Date Title Body
9 weeks 2 days ago halfway there

Good to see that he is already halfway to the consensus mark. Quite the feather in his hat. This might boost him the extra bit more heading into the tourney . . . 

10 weeks 2 days ago not taking it the wrong way

I'm 42. I don't know that I would personally overreact to what an internet mob has to say, but again, let's think back to the Kyle Kalis situation. I don't know if the internet nonsense was a factor in his decision making, but I do know that there is no way it helped OSU in the matter.

10 weeks 2 days ago good thinking

Smart move by the mods to act on this. They don't need Drake or his family to see him being smeared online because some unruly fans think that is the way to react when a HS athlete does not appear committed to their program any more. It didn't win Kyle Kalis back to OSU, and it is unlikely to win Drake Harris to MSU. Their best move is to be gracious as he completes the recruiting process. It is far from over for him.

10 weeks 2 days ago don't know then

That was my best guess as to why dad would say that Drake is still committed to MSU. If he is not an MSU backer, I'm out of ideas. It would certainly appear that Drake is, if not a UM lean, not an MSU commit either. Strange situation, to say the least . . . 

10 weeks 2 days ago one of those things

Maybe dad is sold on MSU, but Drake is feeling UM a bit more. Parents and kids aren't always going to go in the same direction on these things. Let's hope Mr. Harris also gets won over to the good side . . . 

10 weeks 2 days ago maybe not

"They wish they recruited Canada" - Nik Stauskas

10 weeks 3 days ago that's the debate

You've pretty much nailed some of the points that people will be debating. I am going to be a homer and say give it to Burke, and I am basing it on his consistency - 15 points or more in every B1G game.

I can understand giving it to the best player on the nation's best team (when you look at the season as a whole), but the award is for the best player, regardless of team. Adding on to the Burke resume is what he has done for his team in terms of keeping a pretty good but not extraordinary team in the top 10 for the whole year, up to this point.

All of that being said, I have no idea who gets the award. Probably going to be a close vote.

10 weeks 5 days ago just wondering

Is today the end of the voting  ?

11 weeks 6 days ago time for a new drill

The word "clowniformz" is thrown about all too casually in the times we live in, but these, good people, are clowniformz in the truest sense - they lack only the big red nose to complete the ensemble.

Imagine the game prep being lost by teams that have to spend valuable practice time learning to get the whole team in and out of a volkswagen beetle while making balloon animals . . . 

11 weeks 6 days ago maybe

I'm thinking that to really rock this uni, you need hair gel aplenty, a deluge of Axe body spray, and a spiffy gold chain. Then you'll be the dopest one on the whole Jersey Shore. Start thinking up your clever new pseudonym now . . . .

12 weeks 1 day ago Zeus

How about OT Orlando Brown? He always speaks highly of Michigan, and his dad played NFL ball pretty close by. He might be in the mix at the OT spot . . . 

16 weeks 4 days ago Cue the Muppets!

I admit that I lost faith because the Auburn hat seemed to match his suit, but WOOOOHOOOOO anyway! Welcome aboard, Derrick, and enjoy that #27 . . . . 

16 weeks 5 days ago interesting

Should we melt down over this too, or just wait for later ? ? ? ?

18 weeks 1 day ago THE PARTY ROOM

THE PARTY ROOM wins, for gratuitous use of caps lock and top notch insider info 

18 weeks 6 days ago yep

That guy is head of the PoliSci department at Ole Miss, thank you very much . . . 

18 weeks 6 days ago one word answer

One word answer to your question - sundresses . . . . 

22 weeks 3 days ago super-manball?

"SUPER-MANBALL" ? ? ?

22 weeks 3 days ago nope

We already have another 6'9 on board, in D Ward. We just need our final piece of the puzzle. Morris is now our punter, due to the Hagerup issue. He won't use his foot though. He's just going to throw it 60 yards if necessary, which it won't be. (see aforementioned linemen)

22 weeks 3 days ago follow me here

First Skipper, then Orlando Bown (all 6'10 of him too). We move LTT to center. Then, the former tackles move to TE and the guards move to FB and RB (when Hurst isn't there). Our opposition will be baffled by our team of atomic supermen(superboys, really), throw their hands up, and flee in terror and confusion.

BK-Raback-PARTYROOM-RDT it. I have exclusive sources on this (all of which are imaginary).

22 weeks 5 days ago impressive work

A big tip of the hat, both for your idea and taking the time to execute it. Count me among those people who've often thought that offers were a better barometer than stars.

While we all know that certain schools have a good history at certain positions, I think it is fair to say that most of us have a school or two whose opinions we respect in general. I'm always happy (JMO) to snag anyone high on LSU's hit parade. And of course, Wisconsin and Penn State for linemen and the blue collar positions, USC for the skill positions.

Which programs out there are other posters impressed by ?

23 weeks 2 hours ago Meh

He'd probably just transfer out to Wiscy for his final year anyway. But, on the other hand, who doesn't ?

30 weeks 2 hours ago done

My personal integrity tells me I can't let Denard finish behind ANYONE from Ohio . . . 

30 weeks 4 days ago tremendous!

Welcome aboard, Denzel. Glad to have you. You're going to be part of an amazing offensive line . . . .

30 weeks 5 days ago better late than never . . .

Welcome, AJ - glad to have you on board and I hope you get some opportunities to find the field and do your thing, and of course do the good work in the classroom that you mentioned. 

30 weeks 6 days ago this article really makes you think

I never knew that being a total dick was so emotionally stressful . . . 

30 weeks 6 days ago just to be helpful

* I am going to have people put an asterisk before their jokes, just for you ;-)

30 weeks 6 days ago Interesting trivia fact

Did you know that he has a tire iron hidden in the beard? You know, just in case Tom Gholston decides to try any more arm bar chicanery . . . 

30 weeks 6 days ago Outstanding article

This really helps give the reader a great idea what to look for this weekend. I'll have my eyes peeled.

Also, if Lewan wants to return any favors and break Tom Gholston's arm or remove his head, that would be fine with me . . . .

31 weeks 2 hours ago no list is complete without

Barkevious Mingo

31 weeks 4 hours ago hmmmm

I hope it explains how Wallace the Wolverine learned to ski, and if this behavior is common amongst modern wolverines . . . .
