What's wrong with you

We're all here because we love Michigan, the thread was clear noone had to click no big deal

Carl - my great grandmother was one of the first female principals in NYC, my grandma played professional tennis, my mother spends ALL of her time working with and teaching young children with severe autism and my two younger sisters are brilliant, college educated, ferociously independent woman who, like me (a male), are HUMAN BEINGS with independent thoughts. The only person on this planet I feel worse for than you is any female who's ever wasted her time thinking you were worth anything of value. It's never too late, please for your sake re-evaluate your life and try not to project gross generalizations onto entire populations of people, something tells me it doesn't stop at women.

You have no chance at the

You have no chance at the Notre Dame job Hugh, just give it a break

If those damn satellite camps

If those damn satellite camps were FINALLY outlawed maybe Hugh could do that himself

So is the takeaway here...

Wait I never heard about any

Wait I never heard about any of this, what's this whole Deflategate thing?

Despicable..worked for the

Despicable..worked for the Federal Defenders office for a few years and never saw this leniency in much less severe cases - the hypocritical nature of his comment is astounding, can somebody just see other cases he's tried with even less evidence of kids who didn't play football?

Let's give these kids a second chance because they've been afforded no opportunities besides a free college education that millions of others will never be afforded and let's not show this leniency to non-football players. Politics aside and I'm not saying I think these boys should have their lives ruined, I find it pretty disgusting that the DA feels comfortable enough to put other lives at risk - also can some asshole tell him Alabama definitely has air conditioned facilities

WOW how could the University

WOW how could the University of Michigan miss this in our vetting process!!! If only we had adequate resources to conduct a coaching search, Jim Hackett's laziness is a lasting stain on the program 

Beilein is a great coach can

Beilein is a great coach can we just stop putting this guy on an imaginary hot seat and acting like we expect so much more - Beilein has taken worse talent further in the tournament than arguably any other coach in college basketball and he's consistently successful in what's seemed to have become the top basketball conference

I get that the issue here seems to lie in the not competing in recruiting for the elite elite but we don't pay them and basketball isn't so subtle with recruiting violations, it's "I have a $1.2MM contract to go play in China, how much can you pay to keep me here Larry Brown?"

Quit drinking and go to bed.

Death to the NCAA.

This is appalling, I'm at a loss with the NCAA - they have yet to institute any rules to benefit students, they used point shaving as an excuse to strip the NIT tournament of national recognition and create their own which has to be the most disgraceful economic exploitation that's going on in arguably all of college athletics, and they continue to claw at self-preservation rather than actually do anything productive - FIFA might be atrocious but the fact that our unviersity athletic system is on par and noticeably only looking out for themselves is somehow more embarassing

Death to the NCAA.

 

But seriously, it's disgraceful.

Predictions?

Anybody have any commit predictions? HarbZeus has had me buckled up since he allegedly took the coaching job in Oakland

LEAF

It's stuff like this that just pisses me off, everyone in the West knows Ryan Leaf deserved the Heisman

Fun Fact

Robots can't hear football

What's your product Plaxico?

What's your product Plaxico? You have more fans in East Lansing then NY and Pittsburgh and you won a hell of a lot more in those places, as a Giants fan please go shoot your other leg

Dartmouth gets it, they

Dartmouth gets it, they actually get what football is all about. Why even have the kids tackling the dummies, why don't we have bigger robots destroying other bigger robots. This is the ground floor of the evolution of the game. I'm seeing a bright future - Robot NFL, Robo-Goodell on a 40 Million bitcoin salary. This is how we FIX FOOTBALL guys, by MAKING IT SAFE

 

This year

I think Lewan, although it might be because he's such a bright spot on an otherwise struggling team

These rankings are SO stupid,

These rankings are SO stupid, why don't they focus on the things that really matter to the students.

Can we get some stadium wifi rankings?

All I'm saying is if you do

All I'm saying is if you do this exact same analysis for 2014 and add Gary Nova to those three teams, he finishes 3rd against Indiana and 1st for both Maryland and Nebraska, and he's easily the least talented of the 3 QBs named 

Your prompt is about being sick of Cook's hype but it's not linked to his stats, it's linked to his physical body and a ton of NFL scouts believing he would make a strong QB in the NFL - and statistically that analysis isn't a perfect comparison to actually draw any conclusions without weighing tons of contextual points (were there injuries on either side, wind/weather in general, did a strong running game open up things more for Cook and inflate those numbers) 

Let it be known, I personally think Devin Gardner has more NFL potential as a QB than Cook by far so obviously I'm not agreeing with anybody, am a total homer and would be laughed at by most scouts (am I crazy, I think his potential is insane), but let's just celebrate Rudock and leave Cook out of this. I also hate Sparty so arguing about the validity of this analysis is not me saying I think Cook is better than Rudock or even a good QB in general

I know results are the only

I know results are the only thing that matters to an extent, but Cook has a lot more of the NFL qualities that are sought in QBs and that's why he's getting so much hype. An analysis like this would probably reflect poorly on Hackenberg but he's probably the most talented QB in the Big Ten

Basketball > Football in Maryland

Like he said it's gorgeous, but they tend to be a much more fun tailgating destination during basketball season from my experiences there

The Big Ten's a bye?

The Big Ten's a bye?

14-0. National Champions.

14-0. National Champions. Shane Morris beats out Rudock, for HEISMAN, but they still finish 1-2 in the country.

Douche Alert

Gotta love that last line, real classy attitude the author has:

Congratulations, Dytarious Johnson (on being completely overlooked and getting an incredible opportunity to receive a better education and further your playing career), may you be the last of your kind...

I'd love an mp3 of this,

I'd love an mp3 of this, brings a warmth that I can't replicate, god do I miss Ann Arbor.

Also I never thought Notre Dame used Golson to his full abilities, maybe Harbaugh is planning on running multiple offensive sets and mixing and matching the QBs, can you imagine playing an opponent and not knowing which QB you'll be facing on a given week, I'm expecting something completely wild from Harbaugh and I really just don't think I'll be disappointed

I love the conviction of the

I love the conviction of the report:

Maybe Tom Brady knew the balls were deflated, we can only say it's more likely than not

Maybe they'll keep the Super Bowl win and vacate the AFC Championship because Goodell doesn't want to upset Kraft too much

Maybe they'll suspend Brady and Devin Gardner's odds of playing QB for the Patriots next year will shoot up from 0 to Jimmy Garoppolo's health

 

Lots of Maybe's

At a certain point every Nike jersey I see just reminds me of yet another variation of an Oregon jersey

 

 

I hope that package falls

I hope that package falls through, a head to head win over Duke would be a huge coup especially with Jones there

Two years from now

Imagine how good Kentucky is going to be 2 years from now when the salary cap rises!

When you have personnel like

When you have personnel like Colin Kaepernick, Michael Crabtree & Mario Manningham in the NFL and can only get to the Superbowl it's CLEARLY an indication of under-performing.

 

Just wait until this year guys, with Tomsula running the show and pesky guys like Harbaugh, Patrick Willis, Chris Borland and Frank Gore gone, they're primed to win it all.

We really could've used him

We really could've used him this year, but hey the punishment fits the crime, right oh holy intercollegiate governing body NCAA?

 

I was a BBA pre-admit and as

I was a BBA pre-admit and as much as I loved Ross the arrogance in the pre-admits in particular was almost unbearable, you're at Michigan fergodsakes we're all obviously smart I mean we chose the greatest school in the world

Also, to all those who do get in, my LSA classes were incredbly interesting and rewarding - take advantage of ALL the Michigan resources and spread your knowledge out, there are professors on that campus that will impact your life forever, don't limit yourselves!

Huge RIP fan despite having

Huge RIP fan despite having no ties to any team he's ever played on, congrats to the legend

So well done, he fits right

So well done, he fits right in

With this team anything can

With this team anything can surprise me. My first post on this site was me complaining about getting a crappy seed in the Lunardi's first bracket (NCAA), all I can say now is what a jackass..

What's wrong with Hail & Unite?

Just look at this Board of Directors:

 

  • Mike Weinberg - CEO - Literature, Science & the Arts '15
  • Bradley Goldman - CFO - Ross School of Business '16
  • Dave Brandon - CMO - Literature, Science & the Arts '74
  • Jordan Haag - COO - Literature, Science & the Arts '16
  • Jorge Maldonado - CCO - Stamps School of Art & Design '15
What happened to Weber??

Wait what happened with Weber??? How have I not heard about this  yet!?

 

I shouldn't need to do this, /s

And even after the postseason

And even after the postseason ends Brady finds a way to win

Oh god Big Blue is Kentucky

Sucks

My computer

My computer

Oh god Big Blue is Kentucky

Oh god Big Blue is Kentucky also, I'm a NY Giants fan...do people here think I like Kentucky?

I'm an out of stater and when

I'm an out of stater and when it came down to it I was choosing between Michigan and Northwestern and chose the good guys, I'd say if it's not journalism, the premium isn't worth it.

 

And as for Notre Dame, just no.

#BearDown beats #TheVictors

#BearDown beats #TheVictors anyday, I mean look at these lyrics, much more original

 

Lyrics[edit]

Verse:

Arizona, bear down!
Let's cheer for Arizona,
Let's raise our voices high!
Let's cheer for Arizona,
That bear down battle cry!
Let's cheer our team to victory!
Let's cheer our team to fame!
Let's cheer for Arizona,
For spirit wins the game!

Chorus:

Bear down, Arizona!
Bear down, red and blue!
Bear down, Arizona!
Hit 'em hard let 'em know who's who!
Bear down, Arizona!
Bear down, red and blue!
Go, go, Wildcats go!
Arizona, bear down!
What are the Knicks doing?

What are the Knicks doing? They already have a ton of money coming off the books next year, I'd rather have Iman Shumpert than everyone else in that trade, including Dion Waiters. Yet the Cavs give up Dion and get not only Shump but JR Smith AND OKC's 1st round pick. 

 

This does not compute, is there something I'm just completely missing here? Do the Knicks really think it's the money that's hurting their ability to compete and not the extremely modest, self-declared  "most underrated superstar" Carmelo Anthony?
