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.' "

1 week 1 day ago In St Simons for a wedding.

In St Simons for a wedding. Driving to Atlanta soon here to have lunch at the gf's family's house to celebrate with her mom. I need to call my mom and explain why Im not In NYC and that I do in fact still love her.



Enjoy the day y'all!

1 week 2 days ago Yeah. My most competitive

Yeah. My most competitive event was LJ, (and baseball. )

1 week 2 days ago Don't really appreciate how

Don't really appreciate how flawless and neat the Michigan jersey is until you see it next to others like Wash state or Tennessee.

1 week 2 days ago Spot on. They had nothing at

Spot on. They had nothing at wide out. I'm hoping Stephen Hill can play more like his other GaTech cohorts at the same position. More like that guy in Detroit, but I'd settle for baybay Thomas too.

1 week 2 days ago Jesus! How big was he when

Jesus! How big was he when he did that? And what was your time? I never ran an impressive time in the 200m (PR in the 25s) and 400m in 54's.

2 weeks 3 days ago Whoa- related videos for me

Whoa- related videos for me came up.... Brenda Gunderson cameo! I see you girl!

2 weeks 3 days ago They had the 2009 game on BTN

They had the 2009 game on BTN last night... honestly it's almost as good as the UTL game.  I mean, it's more watchable the whole way through anyway.  UTL is painful to watch, but it is exhilerating to watch the 4th quarter.

4 weeks 2 days ago I'm picturing 35-10

I'm picturing 35-10

4 weeks 3 days ago in a double header i got hit

in a double header i got hit 5 total times.... 3 in the first game, 2 in the 2nd.  My coach just took me out.

Having coached Little league, the biggest issue i have is for the losing coach's pitch count.  These days pitch counts are enforced and i imagine he must have had to throw everyone... which puts him at a disadvantage for future games if they fall within a few days.

4 weeks 4 days ago She's basically just

retiring, living in AA.

Dear Faculty, Staff and Students,

Ours is a university unlike any other, and there is no place I would rather be.

I have told the Board of Regents that Michigan is where I wish to conclude my career. I will retire as president when my contract ends on July 31, 2014.

The University of Michigan deserves the best in a leader, and I want to give the Board ample time to select the next president. I am committed to working with the Board members to ensure a smooth leadership transition.

Leading the University of Michigan is the most challenging and rewarding work of my career. It is a tremendous privilege and one that continually energizes me.

I am extremely proud of the work we have done, together, to make Michigan more vibrant, more accessible and more global. I fully anticipate the next 15 months will be like my previous 11 years - busy. I have often said I have the best job in higher education, and I look forward to continuing to work with faculty, students, staff and alumni in the upcoming year.

When a new president is in place, my husband Ken and I plan to live in Ann Arbor and remain active in the community. We have always lived in college towns and there's really no place like Ann Arbor. We did not think twice about where we wanted to call home after the presidency.

Today, it's much too soon for goodbyes. Instead, let's move forward and continue to advance the academic excellence of the University of Michigan.

Sincerely,

Mary Sue Coleman
President

Hey can't lose if they don't score.

6 weeks 1 day ago I'll be in Philly for work

I'll be in Philly for work too!  I was planning on Fox & the hound.  I'd been there once for a game, it wasn't THAT bad but i'd be open to a better/cooler spot.

6 weeks 1 day ago Kind of wish they did this

Kind of wish they did this after the season was over.

6 weeks 1 day ago re-watching the game.

re-watching the game.  "on-call" for a deployment.  IT Problems.

6 weeks 3 days ago Have you guys heard of "After

Have you guys heard of "After Innocence" documentary?  Follows the After Innocence project, they promoted it a lot on campus in '06.  It's on netflix and quite the eye opener on the legal system.  Super scary,  and super sad.... It's on netflix and I strongly recommend it.

7 weeks 9 hours ago Thought i read an article

Thought i read an article that proved exactly the opposite of what folks are saying... that the coaches were down on him.

Borges: 
"He's gained some confidence back," offensive coordinator Al Borges said Tuesday. "He probably lost a little bit -- who wouldn't, I guess. He's had a really good six days of spring football.

7 weeks 13 hours ago JB Getting involved and

JB Getting involved and Bacari in the actual dance.... that cracked me up.

7 weeks 16 hours ago Pretty sure Michigan advanced

Pretty sure Michigan advanced to the Final Four... unless that's one damned elaborate joke.  Luckily, i'm working from home today.  I just got back from vacation in Mexico... i couldn't go in today all the way.  baby steps.

7 weeks 6 days ago We're burning our ships and

We're burning our ships and taking their house over.

8 weeks 14 hours ago Given their bid and run in a

Given their bid and run in a year this strong in competition- makes no sense.

9 weeks 3 days ago If this is for me i'll give

If this is for me i'll give you the quick answer (General Studies)  and

the tl;dr answer:

I started off in the RC, and was pretty much undeclared- I knew i could take the courses i wanted to take, and retrofit a major at some point.  RC Social Science was that way- but it required a research/thesis and I didn't have the time to put out a good product.  So Iultimately decided to go BGS.    I focused on marketing courses in the b school (fought to get into those), took accounting, EECS183, Public speaking in Schoo lof Kinesiology... i was all over the place.  I basically mirrored Org Studies.

9 weeks 3 days ago Great dunk by oladipo, but

Great dunk by oladipo, but did he travel....twice?  Receiving the ball he took a step and another, then dribbled.  then he grabbed the ball took 3 or 2 (and a half ??) steps then dunked

9 weeks 3 days ago How does Oladipo score so

How does Oladipo score so much in the paint?  it's like he just sneaks in there everyttime and outrebounds.

9 weeks 3 days ago "Make sure that you want to

"Make sure that you want to do finance however as the non finance students are treated like IU football: strange, difficult to look at, and no one really knows if they belong."

Haha.  Pretty awsome analogy.  I erupted in laughter.  Thankfully i'm working from home today.

9 weeks 3 days ago Yeah I think it's very

Yeah I think it's very feasible to get back to NYC after Ross (one of the top destinations).  I'm not in i-banking, i work in systems integration practice a major consulting company, and want to transition into either mgmt consulting or maybe even something marketing/technology focused.  

Basically, it comes down to- how much is Columbia's "brand" worth.

9 weeks 3 days ago Yes- one plus for Columbia -

Yes- one plus for Columbia - virtually unprecedented access to recruiting in NYC.  in fact, i was looking at their offer rate 3 months after graduation... Columbia is at ~96%, Ross was at ~87%.  

9 weeks 3 days ago That was the whole purpose of

That was the whole purpose of going to b-school.  To delay that....

9 weeks 3 days ago Nobody knows ... can't see

Nobody knows ... can't see 'em.    I'll be here all week.

9 weeks 3 days ago Yeah Columbia isn't giving me

Yeah Columbia isn't giving me anything, and michigan is giving me full tuition.  Having a girlfriend complicates things a bit (not the deciding factor, but is a consideration).  It's hard to ask her to uproot and move to Ann Arbor (she loves NYC, friends family etc.)  I'm 28, she's 29 so the idea of moving to a "college town" isn't as sexy.  Although, AA is more than just a college town IMHO.  At any rate,  i suppose these are "champagne problems".
