Loudly clears throat, holds lorgnette to my face, and sticks nose in the air: You're operating under the assumption that because the typical contemporary player departs at the drop of a dime, that this particular player didn't depart as a result of a ghastly dysfunctional program in East Lansing. Ghastly!
*Grabs tin foil hat from under the table and places it on head, but with a tilt, like Jay-Z.
The NCAA has allowed things to spiral because it's their only means of exerting pressure. Letting shit run wild until fans have had enough of these "spoiled athletes", while Universities tire of contantly losing talent they've invested in, is their survival strategy.
They figure the schools and fans will eventually come crawling back, and order will be restored.
To answer your question, the day the Universities pay, which imo is only a matter of time, will be the day the NCAA as we know it, dies. It's that simple.
He's owned up to everything? Like when he said he smacked the coach because he's from the Chi and he was merely defending himself? Stop.
Now he's giving The Athletic, who dragged our Athletic Department just months ago, an exclusive, tell all interview why?
So he can eat some humble pie? No. This is unprecedented. Juwan's not slick. This is the Hunter Dickinson sly shade interview all over again, except an ex HC gave it. Bizarre
Funny how everybody hates passivity in a program, yet they root for, or attended our school. Make up your mind.
It's as if some of you are oblivious to the fact that the culture here is, and has been, passive for decades.
See the Moeller firing, Lloyd not saying shit while Urban Meyer advocated for his team, not a peep being made all those years OSU cheated and we lost to them, the Ohio fanboy refs (JT was short), no one even remotely suggesting we get the title Louisville vacated because of whores and drugs, not putting the Fab Five's banners back up, the fact we couldn't get a holding penalty called in our favor for like a decade, etc, etc.
Where has this energy been from all you tough guys? It's been Jimminy for a looooooong time.
Now, you're all suddenly so bothered by it, you want a Michigan man fired right after we win our first natty in forever. And half of you mfs aren't even Michigan men yourself! Stans running the asylum.
It's all goofy asf. Yet typical, and rather predictable.
Btw...Loved Manuel's swag at the May introductory presser. It's as if he was saying "stfu you whiny fucks, I know what I'm doing. Go back to your desks, and leave sports to sports people, not your corny, probably prejudiced, never played or coached a damn thing, ass. Zip it nerd."
Some people will always have an almost ingrained issue with someone like Manuel being in power. I saw it with Jerry Reese as a Giants fan right after the 2 SBs he won that franchise.
Despite generations of precedent all around the world, these people actually believe it has nothing to do with what it usually has something to do with.
My thing is, wtf is he doing driving in A2 at 3 am? It's bad enough you closed the bar down your first month in town, but then what? I hear the Vu is back open! Jesus. The city damn near shuts down around 11 for grownups. You have to be dedicated to keep the party going, let alone til 3 in the morning!
What a dumb ass. Right before the portal opens back up too. Terrible terrible timing. Not a fan of his early, but you can't fire him right now. Give him the juwan you better not slap again deal.
I wonder if "Warde" now meets the stringent standards of the many MGoAthleticsAdministrators in here, constantly fucking whining when they don't know shit about what's going on. Shut up and let things play out.
Weird how almost everybody refers to Manuel, Howard, and Moore by their first names like they know them, but Jim is always "Harbaugh", JB was always "Belein", etc. Even Brandon was never referred to as just "Dave." Funny. It's probably one giant coincidence huh?
Does he have a lot to prove as far as accuracy and touch are concerned? Yes. Does he have an NFL arm? Also, yes. Obvi.
Has he displayed leadership, resilience, clutchness, humility, loyalty, and just about every other intangible trait you'd want your franchise QB to have? Hell yes.
Some people can only see stats though, and that's fine. But that's problematic when assessing a UM era Harbaugh QB or WR. Flat out.
Maybe he pans out, maybe he doesn't, but as of now, he checks a lot of boxes. Plus he's been the apprentice of a former successful NFL QB and NFL Coach for the last three years. Plus, he's mobile.
Way stronger arm, but less accurate. Similar mobility, similar leadership. But Donavan was soft imo. Didn't seem to care much about winning when the deck was stacked. But that's the opinion of a lifelong Giants fan so...
This is slightly concerning. Hopefully his passing game is better than it was at WB. One of the most basic offenses I've seen in 20 years of coaching. Jet sweep, QB draw, Inside zone, fade. Rinse and repeat.
My issue is that he wasn't qualified to be our HC in the first place, imo. He had no experience in the league as a head, and he had no college coaching experience at all. Harbs had plenty of both. And success. Therefore, he deserved more benefit of the doubt.
So now that Howard's lack of experience is seemingly rearing its head, I think he should move on.
Not to mention the slap, the blaming of his players for lack of effort, the gross mismanagement of his coaching staff, the implication that everything is the problem except him ( the shit works), the lack of contrition for making an ass of us all (I'm from Chicago, I was defending myself), his GLIAC level son seeing the floor, etc, etc only serves to twist the skewer into my eyeballs.
Lol, he really butchered the term. It's what DBs scream when they get a pick, so their teammates know to block. It's also fun to yell out, I think it makes them more aggressive on the ball.

He's super buns.
You forgot illegal settlements.
They really do think they're the feds. Fuck em.
When the dust settles!
I didn't, and I transferred from WCC ten years ago.

Hopefully GVSU, Ferris, and other schools at the level he belongs at are secretly reaching out. Lol
Great move for he and his family. Love!
He's from Lansing where his recently widowed mom lives, and his dad is an MSU legend. Easy.
What's that school we represent? J-Dubbs represent!

Gold! 💪🏾
And also why Johnson staying was so big.
I don't understand why you don't understand it. It's obvious. And doesn't exist all the the same time!

Who are these people? Winner gets a prize.
Seconded.
Planks can help with that.
Do you know coach personally or...?
I loathe him, but no lies are detected on the money matters over the players and teams part. Hashtag Obvi
Typical
Hell no.
Titty said the kitty then the milk went dry.
Yeah that third one's a doozy.

Williams displayed way more touch than JJ, and better accuracy too.
Does he have a lot to prove as far as accuracy and touch are concerned? Yes. Does he have an NFL arm? Also, yes. Obvi.

What's not to like?
-Lifelong Giants fan
I'm actually Rumeal,why am I not on this list??? And where's Mo Taylor? RAAAAAWR!
Me gusta
Orji?? No. He's more athletic, way less cerebral, not even close as an actual QB (we think) skill wise, way less accurate. Terrible comp.

Is Donut Mill in A2? No.
Thirded
That's a damn good time for Blake
True. This was a different level of simple though.
Especially when his talent level is nowhere near the level of a Michigan athlete.
This is slightly concerning. Hopefully his passing game is better than it was at WB. One of the most basic offenses I've seen in 20 years of coaching. Jet sweep, QB draw, Inside zone, fade. Rinse and repeat.

I concur. Leonardo voice.
"Got lucky" is an embarrassingly wild statement. Almost Sparty esque.

As a former DBs coach myself, love to see the footwork and drills here. Hands, feet, eyes. Oskie!
