XM - long time reader. I hardly post. We may know each other. Kelly was a good friend at the B school, in addition to several others on the team at that time ( Demar in particular).

would be great to touch base  

 

Scott Frost team IS…

Scott Frost team IS outhitting their opponent today!

It's confirmed

We have been outcoached in this game and out played in every single area. 

Don Brown needs to evaluate how poorly his defense was prepared and how they performed. 

 

Harbaugh needs to complete my change offensive coaching and play calling.  Look. Down 42-13 and we call as QB keeper. Really??  

We are about her ,3 years away butts. This tresses performance indicates we were far from ready to compete at the national level. 

Ausgeseichnet !!

Jawohl !

House divided

Will the Sparty wife watch game too?

I prefer Carolina brewery

And then Italian at 401 across street. Going there tonite

Ausgeseichnet!

No. He is not gone. He is still the HC.

If all the snark comments bug you, you might want to skip the site for a few months.

Hilarious. And

Arizona leads Utah 21-0.



Go figure

Northwestern

Game all over again. Survival of the Futile !

Touché.

Hoke is unbearable to listen to anymore

Unfortunately

The comment if the coach setting the tone is so true. Announcers were talking about dantonio. , however in this case hoke setting a tone that allows players to laugh and have fun while getting their ass kicked

You don't deserve your username

Dumbass. It's my perspective, you can disagree. So be it , but fuck off with your comment asshole.

Nope defender engages right at snap

Receiver didn't help himself. But. Look again

This

You are correct

Where is the hot ,

Crying ND girl. ??

Great game ND blows

But. That shud not have been called.



Defender initiated contact

Defender initiated contact on that

Shud have been a no call



I hate ND though

Wiener

Excellent post. I will rename myself kielbasa man if this comes to fruition.

At least we would hit something

We can't hit a receiver. !!

We can't hit a hole. !

We cannot hit the QB



Y u no help coach ?

Please

Look at MSU.

They actually can return punts



Oh. And a touchdown by running thru a tackler. What a unique idea !!

We really look bad

There is no amount of lipstick on the pig that will work. The defense still looks like a pig.

Do we know anything about his injury

Or is this still uncertain due to Brady speak

Number 9 defense

My ass!!! Linebackers and def back coaches not getting it done. Players out of position constantly.

I am not up to speed.

Is Peppers still hurt and not dressed?

No it is more of the same

Great effort but does not. "See" the game

Peppers

Is he dressed ?

Jordan Taylor's nice butt..

It keeps talking to me.

Projected upside or..

undercoached..??  or Both?

Thanks for this.

I actually have seen this before.  I believe I received a CD one of my many Michigan books along the way.  I also believe they showed this during one of the many Bo tributes when he passed away in 2006 in the local Detroit media.. probably channel 7.

no no no

You are giving Sharp too much credit.  No way he uses multi-syllabic words like Magnus.

Game

Pick by GB

I thought it was

from the sitcom Green Acres, Mr. Haney

No No. How about

Stevie Browns number 3

Many friends in Green Bay do

not like MM as coach.  But then I heard during pre-game he was up for coach of the year??  

You are referring to Bedford, correct?

I would like to see Corwin Brown here.  Does Cornflakes have a relationship with existing staff?  I thought I remember some say he would do well back here, but thought I read that he burned bridges here?? 

Dark.. you are missing the point.

Belein is not getting it done.  I am not bad mouthing anything.  To the contrary, point to the facts.  And the facts state that we have a below average basketball program and the head coach is not generating the results from a W and L perspective, a recruiting perspective, and player management perspective, and even struggling with assistant coaches.

This comes from a long time alum and fan that bleeds bluer than most.

Kal. You're correct, I did not go into a full dissertation.

But, lets talk about the loss of Sim and Harris.  What happened to our team last year, with these Sr/Jr. led talent?  What were the results on the court?  And where are the recruits, that Belein is responsible and accountable to bring in to the program that should be picking up where Sims/Harris left off?   Remember, he is in year 4 and has had one more year than RR to work with.  He actually started out with more and generated less than RR has from a progress perspective.

You are correct again, the team just does not have the talent.  That is a primary responsibility of the Head Basketball Coach of any program in the country, right?  Being a good coach, in any sport, is more than just being a great "X's" and "O's" guy, right?  Or do you need me to be more specific?

So, if he is a great "scheme" coach, as recognized by most, but does not recruit well, cannot pick his assistants well (he changed all of them), does not produce Big Ten championship calibur play (meaning his players are not learning this "superior scheme" and tranlating it into "W''s"), his team's have the same identities as Tommy A's teams, (lots of player only, players driven meetings there too), I say the coach is not an effective one. 

If the goal for the BB program is to maintain mediocrity, I say Belein is the right coach.  He is a nice guy though, just like Tommy was.  I guess we are witnessing the difference in accountablity between the football and basketball programs.  My obvious frustration is as a long time alum and fan, my expectations are so different from what I am observing.

OK. We will probably lose the game.

And become the medicine to cure whatever ills Izzo's team has had over the last month or so.  But tell me, what if we win?  Or, what if we lose, but keep it close?  Or what if we win, but then still end up as the bottom dweller in the B10?

My point is, this is just one game and now having observed this years body of work so far, I am less than impressed and quite concerned that Belein is just a older, smarter, yet just as effective version of Tommy Amaker (he was a very nice guy too). 

Bottom line, Belein is not getting the job done, period.  Save the excuses in infrastructure issues, "constraints" in recruiting, blah, blah, blah.  That crap is just an excuse to rationalize the current state.

What really spoke volumes to me was Belein basically getting rid of all his assistants from last year.  That told me he is covering his ass and trying to buy himself time.  I think he is in over his head and situationally mis-placed... Just like RR.

It is time for a new BB coach.

My concern is... Belein has done less

with more than RR.  He has had more time to bring in talent... and quite honestly his recruiting classes have given us little to be excited about.

Hopefully this very young, determined team keeps working hard, but it is becoming more and more evident that working hard is not the issue.  It is a lack of skill set, either from a coaching perspective or from poor recruiting that is hurting this team. 

How long are we supposed to wait?

Congrats to all of you... but..

It is just the beginning.  Work hard, become true Michigan men, and make positive impacts on all you encounter.

1984 grad.

Douche^

You deserved it.

What about Barwis?

What happens to our crazy S&C difference maker?

What I want to know... Where are

the five star Recruits (especially on D)?  I remember when we were known for Championship level defenses....and we did have higher rated recruiting classes that fit this image.

Where are they?  Why are we only getting the 3/4 stars?  Is it because of our record the last 2 years?  Did LC hurt a recruiting pipeline???  what happened....

Different lifetime for me. 1987 was year

my oldest son was born.  That clip was great though... even the arcaic CBS opening music got me excited and brought back memories of when I actually did like the NBA...

I just cannot stand the modern NBA game and long for the days where a premium was had on playing solid, physical defensive game (ie. Bad Boys).  The game back then was as much about strategy and "out smarting' your opponent on the floor. 

This in stark contrast to todays game, which demonstrates an extreme lack of defense, highlight driven behavior, game intelligence lacking on court play that causes me to react as strongly as one can/has to "The Horror" or seeing "The Doom" on the field at the Big House. 

Its a shame too, given that players physical ability has evolved.  NBA players are so gifted athletically but given the above, these abilities have been wasted away.  The only way I go to a Pistons game anymore is if the tickets are free and I have nothing else to do.

The only time I watch a NBA game on TV is to catch Charles Barkley at the breaks.

Then I drink and find the clicker.

what was the rumor?

I have heard about Miles and another coaches wife... but not anything associated with Moeller.
