Given NIL gains, I suspect the cover athlete will be a current college player(s) and not someone in the NFL. My guess is Travis Hunter and/or Shadeur Sanders.

Since he’s donated to the school in the past he should feel (or have) an obligation to step in and donate more now, is that right?

TCU didn’t have an elite 5* QB and they beat us, so having a 5* doesn’t seem to be a prerequisite to winning.

“7. Weak flushes. Your heart sinks as soon as you hear the impotent, gasping bubbling of a weak flush. You stare down into the bowl that’s healthily packed with yesterday’s Crunchwrap Supreme and folded up toilet paper…”

There, fixed that for you…we’re Michigan for god’s sake, not heathens.

I'd limit our search to people who are born on third...why not get all the advantages we can get?

Nicely done and congratulations on your journey, you’re better for the perseverance and experience.  

I'm less and less concerned…

I'm less and less concerned with the recruitment of HS kids. I think the transfer portal, combined with the one-time free transfer, is a game changer for how to construct a roster.

Get the best guys you can in any single recruiting class and then go and fill holes with more experienced transfers. The tape you get on a transfer (even if it is from a G5 school) should be more informative than any tape you can get from a HS kid.

I know UM has an uphill battle to admit many transfers, but I do think its an effective way to round out a roster.

That's a minor league commute....let me know when you reach 4-5 hours each day round trip.

It seems like most of the team I root for fall into a similar pattern...UM, Manchester United, NY Knicks, Miami Dolphins...teams with glorious pasts who have been mostly irrelevant for the past 20 years.

I'm hoping that this weekend's glorious start to the EPL bodes well for my other teams to reclaim their lost glory.

I’d recommend the Casper, not because it’s any good (I have no idea) but because my firm has been an investor in the company since their seed round and they could really use your business.  :)

Not Clemson? 
 

How about USC under competent leadership? Texas? Any of the Florida schools? I don’t think recruiting domination is as inflexible as you suggest. How much longer does Saban coach for? Does Bama stay on top after he’s gone?

5 Hinsdale in '86. Don't think I attended anything I was supposed to all year long.

Just moved my daughter into the dorms at PSU. Man that town is still in denial about JoePa...tons of signs to "bring back the statue" of JoePa.

I am a dedicated convertible guy. From my first car (1978 MGB) to my current ride (Carerra Cabriolet 4S), I love the top down driving with the wind in my (thinning) hair.

The fact that my car is both a convertible and has AWD makes it a daily driver for me here in CT.

I had the privilege to eat at El Bulli in Roses, Catalonia in 2008. It lived up to it's reputation as the best restaurant in the world (which I think it was voted as being 5x).

Aside from that, I had pretty amazing sushi in London for a closing dinner where the final bill was well into 5 figures (to be fair there were at least 20 of us ringing up that bill). That one might have been more saki related excellence than the food though.

This is Bo Schembarkler, 3 year old Labradoodle who is disappointed that his sister will be a freshman at PSU this fall.

Totally agree with you. Gepetto’s had a glorious but short run. Their sauce was perfectly garlicky. I’m so glad someone else remembers that place like I do.

My roommate and I went there every week for the gyoza and chicken teriyaki over white rice, with extra sauce on the side. Loved that place.
