9 weeks 5 days ago	Disagree on Taco	33 is a dumb number for a DE. In addition, 7 is a QB number at Michigan. Do we really want a DB wearing Rick Leach's number?
10 weeks 9 hours ago	One more ?	Gibbons at 240?  I know he is a kicker but jeez, stay in shape a little bit.
11 weeks 3 days ago	Welcome to the SEC	If you are not a starter, any screw-up and you are out
11 weeks 3 days ago	Being a coach in waiting is a horrible position	If the team does well the existing coach won't leave.  If the team doesn't do well, the school looks elsewhere. It only works for Narduzzi if MD leaves very soon.  Unlikely.  Plus, now every school uses this against MSU as to coaching stability.  This is a really stupid move by Sparty, which is all good.
12 weeks 1 day ago	Good conference but	bad name.  They should have rebranded themselves, for lots of reasons, including the fact that it is basically a midwest conference once they get done completing the membership.  The Big East is a damaged brand.
12 weeks 4 days ago	I like the Wes Welker comparison	Tough. Quick. Gamer. Welker with break away speed.
12 weeks 4 days ago	Huge upside $	RGIII and Colin K made Devin a lot of money this past year. He fits the mold of the evolving QB in the Nfl. Good for him.
14 weeks 19 hours ago	Agree with this comment	This was a fun interview, clearly Ace's best contribution. This reflects what makes this blog great
14 weeks 2 days ago	That' is probably true, which means	that OSU will now back off. Meyer has been embarrassed and he won't let that happen again.
14 weeks 2 days ago	Meyer will back away now	He has just been embarrassed and he won't risk that again.
15 weeks 1 day ago	Except that he didn't bring it up in a professional way	He brings it up first during a radio interview.. Any chance of a thoughtful conversation with his coaching peers was lost at that moment.
16 weeks 3 days ago	Cosign this comment	This blog is truly outstanding
17 weeks 3 days ago	I agree with your assessment but	the mystery is why Haden has been so supportive of Kiffin. The two are total opposites, Haden is a classy guy who has achieved much in his life. Kiffin-not so much. The "lets keep him because he can recruit" notion is crazy-any good coach can recruit at USC. why Haden hasn't jettisoned this guy is a puzzle.
17 weeks 3 days ago	Where is he going?	Look, he has done a real good job there but really, he doesn't seem a likely target to leave. This is just an example of coaches' salaries going crazy.
17 weeks 4 days ago	Does this place turn out a lot of D1 players?	What kind of track record does this school have of turning out big time players?
18 weeks 6 days ago	Well...	AFter years of sucking the ND fans I know don't care about anything but winning. If he wins Kelly will be fine. He was culpable in the death of a student manager and they did nothing. It's about winning at ND. Nothing else matters.
18 weeks 6 days ago	Exactly	The guy got away-literally-with murder. Okay. Maybe accessary to murder. It is sad the that he is being held out as a role model. At best he beat the system. Sad.
27 weeks 5 days ago	Amen to that	This year, this team, I would like to play in a bowl where we would be favored. Of these two, we match up much better against Florida
29 weeks 6 days ago	This does not make me feel better	The whole kitten thing is stupid.
29 weeks 6 days ago	Big mistake by the coaches.	Gardner at WR has made no difference and Bellomy isn't ready as a substitute for Denard. Does anyone think a properly prepared Gardner would not have given us a better chance to win?
39 weeks 5 days ago	It is a great photo	as several have pointed out. It also highlights how many people are involved in coaching, training, managing, eats the team. I counted 46.
43 weeks 1 day ago	Tom often was ahead of the news	I subscribe to ESPN Insider and the factis there is no news there coming from Tom
43 weeks 4 days ago	Agree but leadership let us down	4 arrests since the end of the season. I have confidence that Hoke will get things under control but these failures so close to summer camp are a big disappointment
43 weeks 5 days ago	Wow. This makes no sense obviously	By the way, how many QB's participated? Shane isn't a top 11? C'mon
44 weeks 1 day ago	I think this is a realistic scenerio	Think about it, if you add a bowl win Hoke is 22-4 with the other guy's players. It would be an amazing coaching accomplishment.
44 weeks 3 days ago	Second that	I don't understand accepting that commitment at all we should have kept a couple of spots open for possible five star talent. Given our class we have that luxury.
45 weeks 2 days ago	Absolutely agree about Norm MacDonald	When unleashed he was, and remains (as when he occasionally drops by the Howard Stern show) one of the funniest guys ever.  When he is in the company of Arte Lange, pure gold every time.
46 weeks 4 days ago	So subtle	Nicely done
47 weeks 4 days ago	Second	One of the best posts ever
49 weeks 3 days ago	Yes	It is a great idea.  The patch needs to be improved, but it is a unique way to honor Michigan greats on a regular basis.
