Maybe it is, perhaps it isn't, but it's horrible to assume you know his life.

Best of luck, Frankie. I…

Best of luck, Frankie. I hope you get or have gotten a degree and have taken school seriously.  

Well the Bears are on the…

Edit, your reply wasn't to me.

As long as it's not the East Side of Chicago, I'm good with him not being picked first.

You left out the initials of…

You left out the initials of your Camaro. I've found that most Camaro owners I meet with an SS, 1LE, or ZL1 find it necessary to include those in the name. Personally, I'll tell people if they ask, but I don't find it necessary. I love my 6th Gen Camaro; it's an absolute blast to drive.

I would go with a Subaru WRX if I were to ever decide to get rid of my truck and get an AWD car.

So, if I read correctly, Tom Crean drove his RV to California?

If you haven't read it, here…

If you haven't read it, here's the story from Harbaugh himself about "Who's got it better than us?".

Hillman was also a pretty…

Hillman was also a pretty highly rated recruit as an athlete, but who knows how well he's transitioned to defense. Quentin Johnson or someone out of the portal are options too.

Ok, all "Michigan Money…

Ok, all "Michigan Money Cannon" people, here's your chance to put your money into that cannon you like bragging about so much.

I'll give him the props he…

I'll give him the props he deserves for closing the deal and getting the top candidate, even though I was not all in on the fire Warde parade. Much of the criticism was well deserved. My biggest complaint was the lack of a backbone.  He disappeared while our football program and head coach were getting raked over a burning fire.

OSU could have waited a week, and the rating would have been higher.  Instead, we get to enjoy the high ratings.

No, I didn't take it that…

No, I didn't take it that way. You brought up some good points and taught me something I was unaware of.

I'm not an Izzo fan but this…

I'm not an Izzo fan but this YouTube screamer completely ignores the fact that Izzo has forgotten more about basketball than he knows.  Which could be the problem with MSU's recent lack of success.  Watching a successful play on TV with a pause a button and screaming about what went wrong is easy.

It's not like they…

It's not like they officially beat us and won a National Championship. If it wasn't apparent the key word is officially (or vacated) and then of course there's this.

Trey Burke Clean Block

Louisville was dominate in the 80's but it took hookers and blow to get them back to that level, which resulted in them vacating 4 entire seasons (2012-2015) and over 120 wins and leading to where they are now. Which is they haven't advanced past the second round of the tournament in almost ten years.

As for history, not really sure where the myth comes from that Louisville is a better job. Listening to Louisville fans is like listening to Nebraska fans.

1997 is about right.  That website is a gold mine for email scrapping bots.

I removed the racist quote from the idiotic Indiana message board fan for anyone wanting to read it follow the link from the OP.

Indiana fans, pretending…

Understandable (comment removed)

Well that settles it, if you…

Well that settles it, if you're not excited then I know it was a great hire.  

Ahead of Michigan

... ahead of Michigan ...

Not if you're a fan of turnovers :) I was listening to it, and I feel so bad for the play-by-play guy who had to keep coming up with new ways to announce a turnover.

I am currently at work and…

I am currently at work and it hasn't stopped snowing all day. On my way to work, I got stuck behind a plow truck that was using both lanes of the interstate and driving at 20mph. To add to the chaos, one of my coworkers keeps yawning loudly every five minutes, which is, of course, making me yawn. On top of that, the Doordash driver is an hour late, which is making things worse. I am not sure if this is what they meant by madness, but I am very glad it's Friday!

The next CC thread where the…

The next CC thread where the coach is in the tourney, I'm putting $100 on the other teams money line.  CSU, McNeese, Kentucky.  Someone quickly make a CC: Tom Izzo thread.

What rules?  If anything his advantage is gone now that the NCAA can do nothing to stop pay or play.

He could play basketball in…

Edit: I should have known someone else mentioned MJ.

Vilified? Next year's coach…

Vilified? Next year's coach will be treated like a 100lb 12-year-old trying to guard Shaq in the paint. Everyone will fully understand why they are getting dunked on and hope Shaq takes it easy on them.

We all saw firsthand in…

We all saw firsthand in football what occurs when the good ol' boys club gets together. Izzo just wants the Saban treatment (he is unaware he already gets it) and not to sweat being a bubble team again.

He was the head coach for 5…

He was the head coach for 5 of the 8 total wins this year. (Not an endorsement just an observation)

Ok

Taking "Title Says it All"…

Taking "Title Says it All" to a level unknown to mankind?

That's what you wear when…

That's what you wear when you are TOUGH! It's like calling out an almost 90-year-old man on national TV after winning a game because Notre Dame coaches can't count to 11.

(No subject)

I'm not arguing that he wins…

I'm not arguing that he wins games.  But let's be honest here. Michigan is not LSU or McNeese.  Michigan wouldn't even go to bat and stand up for Harbaugh.  They will not take on someone else's punishment to hire a guy who has already been caught red-handed cheating.

It was sarcasm and didn't…

It was sarcasm and didn't come across that way.

Yeah, well, he has a two…

Yeah, well, he has an active two-year show-cause penalty, which all but eliminates any chance of that happening. 

Username checks out, you…

Username checks out, you would undoubtedly have better intel than most.

Is Brad Stevens feeling…

Is Brad Stevens feeling unchallenged in his current role as the president of an NBA team? It appears that way. I can only hope that it's time for him to seek new options that will allow him to fully utilize his skills and expertise.

Maybe he can sit on the…

Maybe he can sit on the committee that evaluates the committee responsible for overseeing the committee that writes the criteria for selecting the search committee. Because everyone knows we need more committees.

TL:DR - He guessed 49…

TL:DR - He guessed 49 straight games and didn't even remember filling out the bracket.  

Without help from the NCAA's…

Without help from the NCAA's selective enforcement committee? That's a good question, and off the top of my head, I can't think of any.

You can stand in one place…

You can stand in one place without playing defense or hustling for rebounds.  Come to think of it, you would have started on this year's team.

Just trying to find the…

Just trying to find the positives, which are far more limited than the number of scholarships.

Thank you for trying; best…

Thank you for trying Reed; best of luck wherever you end up.

The good news is that another scholarship is available for a player willing to come here and help fix the mess left behind.

I didn't see the 1004 helmet sticker; I see it now, but I don't see the white or maize outline. Regardless, here's a photo of how fantastic last season was.

Yes, they are

 

That's the sticker from the…

Are those just the stickers from the CFP that every player had on their helmet for both teams?

Sounds good to me, the only…

Sounds good to me, the only thing that sounds better is an auto-bench when someone plays hero ball.

I'm still amazed at the star…

I'm still amazed at the star watchers who failed to watch a UCLA game last year.  I'd be twice as concerned about quarterbacks. Moore looked very bad last year, and based on the tape available, we have at least 3 QBs already on the roster that could do far better than what I saw from him last season. Do you want the guy who lost the quarterback battle to him? 

Football is not basketball. …

Football is not basketball.  In football a grad transfer may still have two years of eligibility, and they are bigger and stronger than the younger players.  There's also far more players who may need that one year at a program like Michigan to raise their draft stock.

In basketball, the transfers who are going to make a difference are usually second round picks or low first rounders.  They are not sticking around until they graduated which like or not, that is how it works at Michigan.

In basketball, Michigan either needs to go all in on NIL or find a coach that can turn players destined for Europe into low first round or second round NBA players.  Then use the portal to help fill out the roster with depth.

We need ballers, not bodies.

So his former coach is now the OC at NILU; he's just looking to get a raise.
