    Their high school coaches and AAU coaches have probably a better appreciation of Michigan than maybe they had before," Beilein said. "It's a tough balance right now. Tim Hardaway and Trey Burke weren't really high-profile players, nor was Darius Morris, and all were high-profile players. "We're still looking at 'who is the best fit.' "

Date Title Body
27 weeks 2 hours ago Leach

Leach does seem a little harsh this season, but his team is a massive disappointment and he was never the friendliest. I'm gonna chalk this up to a tough transition to an authoritarian coach unless some other evidence is brought forward.

31 weeks 3 days ago 48-17, Michigan

Someone may already have this, but I'm at work and can't go through 6 pages of comments.

1 year 16 weeks ago At least

we're not going to lose by double digits.

1 year 16 weeks ago It's different

Rugby players are, in my opinion, better overall atheletes. Everyone can run and hit and do it for long periods with no breaks. In football, you have guys who are stronger or faster but not often both and lack endurance.

1 year 18 weeks ago they should try

an option play

1 year 18 weeks ago Can LSU do it?

Can they join the field goal party?

1 year 18 weeks ago for real

This may be the worst game of the year for me, and I watched Louiseville take on Kentucky.

1 year 20 weeks ago Second strike

You would think they would want to avoid media fallout from transfers, like what happened after the Aaron Douglas affair.

1 year 29 weeks ago lol

no

1 year 32 weeks ago Am I the only one having

Am I the only one having problems with the direct download? From the first week, I can only get about 80-90% of the file; like now I'm only getting 38.7 megs of the 58.4 my browser is showing. I've tried IE, firefox and chrome all with the same results.

1 year 33 weeks ago Vandy South Carolina

There was an interception called for SC when it was clearly simultaneous possession and should have been vandy ball. They reviewed it and confirmed the call on the field. Drove my vandy fiancee mad.

1 year 35 weeks ago 49-6

Michigan 49

EMU 6

1 year 35 weeks ago Still just a rumor

But I'm marking the time, just in case we have to fill out a death report for the Big 12ish

1 year 37 weeks ago 792

792

1 year 37 weeks ago Craig James

First it was the rumor that Craig James killed 5 hookers at SMU, now it's 11? Let's put these heinous rumors to bed, like the bed Craig James is said to have used prior to killing 5 hookers at SMU. That did not happen and Craig James is totally innocent of killing 5 hookers while at SMU.

1 year 38 weeks ago To Quote Jerry Hinnen from CBSSports.com

"It's not possible for Michigan to earn "revenge" against the Mountaineers. The former is one of the most storied programs in college football history. The latter is an FCS program (a good one, mind) that, if they're lucky, might land in Conference USA the next few seasons. 30 Michigan wins can't equal the impact of one of Appalachian State's, much less the single one they'll likely earn in 2012. To suggest the Wolverines can "even the score" with Appalachian State is to also suggest the two programs are somehow equals, peers."
 

1 year 38 weeks ago This is like the episode of South Park

where the Red Wings demolish a pee wee team and go on to celebrate to We Are the Champions. Except that the pee wee team actually beat the Red Wings 7 years ago and everyone will be constantly reminded of this fact.

1 year 38 weeks ago Not that it is easy

but it probably will not kill you. As people reference below, muslims not at Fordson go through two-a-days with no food or water regularly. Heck, last year Husain Abdullah became a starter for the Vikings after fasting through training camp!

http://www.nfl.com/news/story/09000d5d81a9a28b/article/abdullah-completes-ramadan-fast-takes-vikings-safety-job

Again, not saying it is easy (I'm not sure I could sit at a desk all day without something) but it is something that can be worked through.

1 year 38 weeks ago According to Magnus

at http://touchthebanner.blogspot.com/2011/01/eligibility-count-for-2011.html, we are currently at 24 for next year (75 players currently on scholorship and 14 player with only this year of eligibility remaining).

Someone correct me if I am not understanding this correctly.

 

 

1 year 41 weeks ago Scoreless tie

and stadium collapse.

/s

Let me elaborate on the /s

1. I don't really want a stadium collapse.

2. I know games can no longer end in a tie, but I think they would make an exception if the stadium collapsed.

3. I don't really care who wins.

1 year 41 weeks ago LSJUMB

Don't forget about the the one, the only, the truly incomparable Leland Stanford, Junior University Marching Band!

1 year 51 weeks ago Forgive me if I'm wrong

but didn't Yost build Yost Fieldhouse as AD and Crisler build Crisler arena as AD? These guys may have started as football coaches, but their legacies as Athletic Director deserve to be comemorated as well.

1 year 52 weeks ago Thanks Twitter!

This eases my pain.

2 years 1 day ago Me too!

Then I realized that I agreed with him and knew it couldn't be an OSU fan calling in to a radio show.

2 years 1 week ago Only Legends?

I wanted to read about the perpetually hot seat of Ron Zook.

/Re-reads that sentence

You know what I mean.

2 years 2 weeks ago Look about ten posts down...

what you see may surprise you.

2 years 2 weeks ago I will refer to him by his lawful title

All Hail the Space Emperor (of Space)!

2 years 2 weeks ago Achievement Unlocked

Dilithium Cockles

2 years 3 weeks ago Yep

If you watch through, some Baylor player has dreads.

I am more concerned about Denard looking like a fullback.

2 years 3 weeks ago I think

this is reasonable. Obviously I would love for Michigan to win the B1G be in the NC picture every year, but it's just not realistic. We (I'm using the royal "we" here) waited almost 50 years between National Championships. People seem to forget that and think that 2006 level success should be attainable every year.
