Date Title Body
2 hours 3 min ago Is it too early to start his

Is it too early to start his announcement open thread??

1 day 18 hours ago I like that they're not made

I like that they're not made in ohio, but i'm a little miffed that Michigan footballs have ohio printed on them. Get off my lawn!

1 day 18 hours ago The theme of conference

The theme of conference expansion universally has been footprint. The ideal matches for the SEC probably would've been Clemson and Florida State, but they wanted to expand into new territory so they went after Texas and Missouri. 

1 day 20 hours ago J-Roc had a much better

J-Roc had a much better hideout. That dugout under his moms trailer was as gangsta as it gets. two full couches, secret passwords, etc. Datbull is more like the Bubbles of the rap game. Reppin shed dwellers around the world.

1 day 21 hours ago I think last years low

I think last years low attendance numbers had less to do with the blizzard threat, and more to do with the fanbases. 23,000 was literally all of the CMU and WKy fans combined.

1 day 23 hours ago This year, and potentially

This year, and potentially next year we'll have 5 starters in the backfield, and 11 scholarship players competing as backups. So many of these kids have huge upside, or could potentially start at multiple spots on the field, I have no idea what the depth chart will look like in 2014. What a nice problem to have

2 days 2 hours ago The absence of JMFR and the

The absence of JMFR and the addition of Dymonte into this years early roster will only further encourage this type of formation

5 days 21 hours ago If only we could get a

If only we could get a prototype offensive tackle. Athletic, top ranked recruit, like 6'7" tall, from a hotbed area like New Jersey, plays for one of those Catholic powerhouses, maybe named, oh I don't know, Juwann Bushell-Beatty. That would be awesome :D

5 days 21 hours ago Double post. I get to take a

Double post. I get to take a drink!

5 days 21 hours ago Poop. I was ready for Alex in

Poop. I was ready for Alex in maize and blue like a year ago #ihazasad

6 days 16 hours ago Oh, basketball guard. Okay,

Oh, basketball guard. Okay, good for them, I guess. Color me not too worried.

1 week 1 day ago This is hilarious. My Sparty

This is hilarious. My Sparty friends narrative for the last two years basically boils down to: We're better than Michigan, we're relative, we're a big important team! Recruits these days have just been obliterating their world view, lol

1 week 1 day ago Boy, Kansas sports fans are

Boy, Kansas sports fans are having a good day

1 week 6 days ago Well on the whole it probably

Well on the whole it probably is overhyped, but the SEC is still wayyy better than the Big12.

2 weeks 1 day ago If Poole is questionable then

If Poole is questionable then the depth would be thinner, but I suppose the coaches have some flexibility with Ferns being such a good ILB prospect, but with SAM size

2 weeks 1 day ago I'd guess that the coaches

I'd guess that the coaches would only take 1 more lb, a SAM type. Our depth at ILB is an embarrassment of riches, even sans Ringer. Poole, McCray and Gedeon waiting behind a talented young 2 deep. I'd expect a WDE type and/or an extra Safety for the class. WDE because they'll rotate in, and an extra Safety because our depth has a lot of developmental players in it.

2 weeks 1 day ago This is big. Getting elite

This is big. Getting elite talents to visit for big games. I definitely want this kid at Michigan

2 weeks 3 days ago Dude. The first AND second

Dude. The first AND second rules about Fight Club. YOU DON'T TALK ABOUT FIGHT CLUB! Lesson learned at this point, I expect, lol

2 weeks 4 days ago Could watch reruns of NCIS.

Could watch reruns of NCIS. Seriously, did everybody else know Mark Harmon is Tom Harmons son? I only just found out this morning.

2 weeks 5 days ago Last year our 4 losses were

Last year our 4 losses were away games, and even with our OLine struggles and bad turnovers we could've, or even should've, won 3 of them. This year with those opponents at home and what I see as improvements in our OLine and passing game we should be able to edge those opponents out.

3 weeks 2 days ago It could pretty easily grow

It could pretty easily grow to 20.

3 weeks 2 days ago I'd guess JBB and Alex Bars

I'd guess JBB and Alex Bars would be the bookends, with Cole, Doles, and maybe Jamarco Jones in the middle *drools*

3 weeks 2 days ago Ethan Pocics older brother

Ethan Pocics older brother Graham was a 6'7" Center at Illinois, but yeah, it's pretty rare.

3 weeks 3 days ago 6'5 to rivals and scout, 6'7

6'5 to rivals and scout, 6'7 to ESPN and 247. The sites listing him taller rate him a little better.

3 weeks 4 days ago They were all bad. I picked

They were all bad. I picked #3 because the others looked like they were designed as a middle school class project.

3 weeks 4 days ago 1985 style duck hunting

For me that would've been with the light zapper

3 weeks 4 days ago Hmm.....I was neither

Hmm.....I was neither panicking, nor was I talking about Durants long term viablity for the Lions. I don't think the quality of their depth is sufficient, and I'd like it if they tried to improve their position instead of maintaining the revolving door of average talent we've had at LB for the last 10 years or so.

3 weeks 4 days ago I know project guys usually

I know project guys usually don't contribute early, but with Molk in the 7th round last draft, and Marcus Cannon in the draft before there are exceptions. 

3 weeks 4 days ago The difference is the year

The difference is the year before he only had 3. Honestly I can't understand your enthusiasm about a perennial backup If you thought the guy who beat him out for the job was blah. I hope he succeeds, but I'd like them to have a better plan in place.

3 weeks 4 days ago Justin Durant may have been

Justin Durant may have been blah, but he led the team in tackles last year. 82 total, 61 solo. Maybe Ashlee Palmer is good enough to pick up the slack of the teams leading tackler, but last year he played in 15 games and started twice, but logged only 9 tackles at the teams most productive position.
