    Their high school coaches and AAU coaches have probably a better appreciation of Michigan than maybe they had before," Beilein said. "It's a tough balance right now. 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.' "

38 weeks 2 days ago Sounds like it's a saturday morning trip

According to some comments on that article purporting to be from MMB parents, they're flying down early Saturday morning and then right back after the game. That's a long day...

1 year 3 weeks ago Signed

Signed. It's better than doing nothing. 

The worst part to me is how they've reframed the game. When they signed the contract, it was a "preseason bowl trip": http://www.annarbor.com/sports/um-football/michigan-ad-dave-brandon-says-facing-alabama-on-a-texas-sized-stage-is-a-terrific-opportunity/ with the band's seats in the contract and on the official seating chart on Mgoblue: http://grfx.cstv.com/photos/schools/mich/genrel/auto_pdf/2011-12/misc_non_event/cowboys-classic-map.pdf

And then as soon as they're done selling the $125+ tickets, it's just "a regular road game" and they have to cut costs everywhere. Really?

1 year 8 weeks ago Coaches poll

That's the season ending Coaches poll Top 10

1 year 35 weeks ago Attendance

NW v Illini attendance actually went up in the Wrigley game.

The last time they played at NW, 32k people came. At Wrigley, they had 41k. That's over 25% larger attendance WHEN THEY MOVED THE GAME TO A BASEBALL FIELD.

Find me a baseball stadium that seats 150k and we'll talk.

also, it was ridiculous when they could only play in one direction

1 year 36 weeks ago and the uni's too?

I rewound to the video from warmups. They had the white tortoise shell helmets and the uniforms were a more basic white design with red and yellow piping. Then they came out with the Maryland flag design on the jersey AND the helmet. I think they changed both after warmups!

 

1 year 39 weeks ago Boston Alumni Club Game Watchings

Are you precluded from watching at a bar? The M alumni club of Boston has 2 game watching sites that are very popular. It's a lot more fun than streaming at home.

Tavern in the Square - Porter Square, Cambridge (sit down sports bar/restaurant feel, family-friendly)
The Place - 2 Broad Street, Boston, near Faneuil Hall (crowded bar feel)

That should be able to be picked up by the FM ear radios right?

2 years 29 weeks ago Rent

If every Mgoblog reader sends a dollar to Hidden Valley Club Apartments in a envelope marked "Explictly not related to Kenny Demen's rent", think they'd just drop the issue?

That would definitely not be an NCAA violation......heh

2 years 30 weeks ago Sure

Obviously the comeback got the fans back into it, but I'm just saying I could hear some of the echoing that you only get when the sound is reflecting around the stadium.

Empty stands reflect the sound a lot, people absorb it.

2 years 30 weeks ago Crowd noise

I noticed the 4th quarter noise seemed like it was bouncing around in the stadium, making it even louder. Perhaps due to 10+% of the crowd heading out when it was 28-7? It reminded me a bit of 04 MSU.

I propose Michigan Stadium at 80% full would be 50% louder than at 100% full.

It's an Adidas slogan that they've associated with many of their teams' apparel lines:

3 years 7 weeks ago No HD on espnu

I have ESPNU HD and the Miami game just started, and it's in lo-def. So unless they magically find some HD cameras in the next 3 hours, our game won't be available in HD on any channel at any point.

3 years 7 weeks ago Fair Use

Why is the amount taken a factor? Copyright Law.

One of the factors of determining Fair Use is "amount taken":

http://www.newmediarights.org/guide/legal/copyright/fair_use/citizens_le...

"In terms of quantity, did you simply quote one paragraph of someone's eight paragraph blog post(likely fair use), or are you reproducing their rss feed in its entirety, with no commentary, on your website(likely not fair use). Qualitatively important? Amount and substantiality of portion used in relation to copyrighted work as a whole. "

Fair use is a bit wishy-washy in all definitions. But you get the point.

3 years 7 weeks ago It's reposted in full!

This isn't like Brian quoting a sentence or paragraph in a yellow quote box with a prominent link. It's the entire post! Today's hockey post was 3,200+ words!

And it doesn't say where it's from! There's a link, but nothing says MGoBlog. CopyPaste 3200 words and they couldn't add 7 more characters to say MGoBlog?

Illegal? probably not, it's the blogosphere, and Brian's providing the full RSS feed. Douchey? Yeah.
