I love this so much. I love this so much.
Road looks kind of crappy and Road looks kind of crappy and maize looks uninspired. Would really like them to go back to the cursive Michigan on the maize.
Also, retro is in. Check out Also, retro is in. Check out all the brands (ex. Miller Lite) who are going hard on the legacy branding.
Do these numbers account for Do these numbers account for the economy these past 10 years?

I know when I graduated there were no jobs available, especially living in Michigan like I was. I'm doing all right now, but it was tough to get into the entry level career path until a year or two after graduation. I imagine if we started looking at data from now you would have a higher average.

Also, I wonder if the out of state students are throwing this off? If top Michigan grads are going to NYC or SF, you would have very different salaries than other Big 10 school grads who head to Chicago.
Even when in the pocket QBs Even when in the pocket QBs are traditionally pretty vulnerable. When you combine the "blind side" issues with QBs trying to extend plays with their arms/legs, you have a good chance of people getting tackled with body parts extended and no way to brace/protect themselves.

Other players that get hit a lot (WRs/RBs) generally know when the hit is coming and can prep by tucking in. Even run first guys like Denard/old school option guys knew the hits were coming and were prepared. I think dual threat guys will continue to get hurt a lot more than other QBs until coaches adjust to have them stay in the pocket more.
That's because they donate to That's because they donate to Motts or the university proper. Remember how Woodson has donated millions to Motts and Lloyd Carr has a floor named after him due to his players generosity?
Considering the SEC only Considering the SEC only played 4 games against Power 5 teams, and 4 games against FCS teams, let's not talk about conference strength quite yet. There is a lot of football to be played and we don't have a lot of data yet.
You are an astute judge of You are an astute judge of football talent.
I'm constantly amazed at how I'm constantly amazed at how Disney is able to distance itself from the garbage that is the NFL/ESPN partnership.

Imagine if NBC News ran a story that said "Disney employee advises at-risk young men to lie about criminal acts, not avoid them."
Incestous hiring practices Incestous hiring practices gave us the 90s for football. Would gladly do that again.
It bothers me that in a It bothers me that in a report about "new journalism" the author didn't even bother doing some cursory fact checks. EDSBS isn't a Florida blog, something that would take all of two minutes to check.
Driskel is a train wreck. Driskel is a train wreck. Would rather have Morris start and learn on the job than someone who has been Muschamped. Hogan is another story, but you should only bring in a transfer if they are better than your current options.
The 4-3 under we run now The 4-3 under we run now shares a lot of similarities to a 3-4. I imagine we'll continue to run both.

I find the constant self I find the constant self promotion of your log on another to be in poor taste. Even if I was interested in the content I probably wouldn't click on the link as this is the wrong way to generate traffic.
The first sentence in the The first sentence in the article says this was fake...
I'm in Pittsburgh now because I'm in Pittsburgh now because my flight got moved.
I wouldn't be surprised if I wouldn't be surprised if they already had one. The point of a search firm is to find people under contract and get deals done. That's exactly what you need for both an AD and a HC.
Umm, I think a few of those Umm, I think a few of those Southern teams have also been cheating.
Coaches on both sides should Coaches on both sides should be fired. This was terrible.
You may not be aware, but You may not be aware, but other departments (hospital) are cleaning house pretty extensively in his first year.
Michigan Spilly. Michigan Spilly.
Spielman is one of the better Spielman is one of the better guys out there. A few homer remarks every now and then, but more than made up for his ability to break down defensive play simply.
When talking about 5 and 7 When talking about 5 and 7 year old children I don't think you should ever say "Let's lock em up."
The maize and blue sock/show The maize and blue sock/show combo on the men is a pretty nice touch.
In order to have women's In order to have women's hockey they would need to add at least one more sheet of ice, preferably two. Would be a great addition to the new sports complex or north campus, and could rent it out if not in use by a team.
You can argue about not You can argue about not wanting to spend that much money on a sandwich, but people who claim that any other shop in town has a superior product are just trying to be special.

Maize and Blue is tasty, but I can make that at home after hitting a grocery store. You really cannot replicate a lot of the items at Zingermann's unless you are willing to spend a great deal of money and buy those items from around the globe.
If you were on Arrakis, If you were on Arrakis, pounding sand would be the equivalent of playing in traffic, so it does work.
The Rutgers writers said The Rutgers writers said Northwestern was a peer institution. They are morans.
I know people don't like to I know people don't like to call these guys "athletes," but I doubt there is anyone on this board who can do what they do physically. Performing 300 actions per minute (button clicks) is extraordinarily difficult when you are button mashing, and these guys are performing complex maneuvers and executing strategies while doing so. While I'm not sure if I would consider eSports Olympic worthy, but there is definitely a lot of physical training that these folks do.
Better yet, make them play a Better yet, make them play a tournament to decide who lives and who dies.
Everyone, break out your Everyone, break out your Starter jackets!
I think this is great. I I think this is great. I would much prefer the game rotate around the conference than to keep it in Indiana every year. Same with the football and hockey tournaments/championship, let's have them all rotate around the league.
Strong coached at Florida Strong coached at Florida under Meyer. That's where this comes from.
I would just as soon see all I would just as soon see all fouls that are intentional at the end of the game being called as such. Breaking the rules should never be a strategy.
Henne started as a true Henne started as a true Freshman, which is what this kid wants to do.
So if we stop being rivals So if we stop being rivals with them, things will be easier? Brilliant!

I don't need a specific week I don't need a specific week to hate Al Borges. /s
Wish there was something like Wish there was something like this in Ann Arbor.
Clearly we are in dire Clearly we are in dire straights as a program because a random user of a random Michigan blog posted a thread congratulating the team on being bowl eligible. Does that sum up the situation nicely?
I want to win every game. I want to win every game. AKRON MICHIGAN RIVALS 4EVA
That's all well and good in That's all well and good in September, but after it hits October/November jerseys let you wear warmer things underneath so you don't freeze.
If they are looking at If they are looking at associate members I would be surprised if they are not eyeing some Canadian schools. Put the University of Toronto in the Big 10 hockey conference and it could change quite a bit for the conference as a whole.
Injury, not industry. Stupid Injury, not industry. Stupid phone....
Change the rule to a full set Change the rule to a full set of 4 downs per industry to make sure it isn't serious and call it a day. This should be the rule anyways so you can get a proper evaluation.
You can also head downtown You can also head downtown early and watch the team do a walk through at the church on State Street. You'll have some down time after but it is pretty cool.
Hoke has mentioned in Hoke has mentioned in recruiting that he looks at a lot of shoulders and a lot of butts. Pretty common if you are looking at the frame of a player.
Use www.padmapper.com, set up Use www.padmapper.com, set up some parameters and let it do the work for you. You probably don't want student housing which is what you will find on a lot of A2 housing sites.
