UMBIG11 on 247: "Gary news continues to flow in a positive direction"
I won't post screenshots because I don't know if that's allowed, but he says it's trending in a good direction. He agrees with another user, "BigShooter1", who supposedly has a good source saying that Gary has been practicing this week and is "going hard." He expects Gary to play, but it didn't specify whether this means he will play against MSU or just "he will play at some point this season."

I think and hope Gary plays! Any news on Black?
October 18th, 2018 at 8:59 PM ^
And if he doesn't play, A_Maizing24, I can tell you that I don't have money, but what I do have are a particular set of skills. Skills I have acquired over a very long time that allow me to hit the little thumb down thingie. And that neg vote from Brimley will be a nightmare for you.
Or not. Thanks for the info.
October 18th, 2018 at 3:25 PM ^
Wait -wasn't all the rumor-mongering yesterday related to UMBIG11's behind-the-paywall posts. I stand by my OP yesterday - Gary will be back by MSU or PSU. Go Blue!!
October 19th, 2018 at 3:22 PM ^
If I recall yesterday’s prognostications were that Gary was more or less done. Or something to that extent. Now be dammed he’s practicing and looking good. I’ll wait for the bacon tweet pregame to see if he’s dressed.
October 18th, 2018 at 4:02 PM ^
So we got that going for us...Which is nice
October 18th, 2018 at 4:13 PM ^
If umbig11 is an insider (I think so), this feels as if Harbaugh told him to go back to the boards and put out the opposite message and stop publicly telegraphing real injuries. There's not enough info to conclude that. But this and that do feel the same.
Going from "may not play anymore" to "has been practicing all week" is a real red flag.
October 18th, 2018 at 5:28 PM ^
I had that thought for a minute, but there are just too many folks with connections saying the same thing. I believe he will play.
October 18th, 2018 at 4:18 PM ^
umbig11 be flipping coins.
October 18th, 2018 at 4:26 PM ^
How this dude ever fooled anyone here - people that will demolish others for posting anything heard from a source - is comical.
His name is umbig11 because he has 11 accounts to paid scouting sites. That's it.
October 18th, 2018 at 4:35 PM ^
News actually changes. I miss when he used to hand out updates for free here instead of for money there...
Why are people all of a sudden hating on him as if it was all made up?
October 18th, 2018 at 4:38 PM ^
Of course it does. But how often does it go from "won't play; may not play again this season" to "actually, he's been practicing all week (necessarily including before my opposite message yesterday)."
That's not whiplash-like change. Those are precisely incompatible. At least one was made up.
October 18th, 2018 at 4:48 PM ^
Gary will practice Wednesday and thursday If he experiences no pain, will play!
has particularly torn labrum and pinched nerve per credible source
October 18th, 2018 at 5:27 PM ^
particularly or partially or particularly partial?
if partial, does that make it a labrum minora?
thank god it's not a labrum majora!
October 18th, 2018 at 5:35 PM ^
Lewerke has partially torn labia from what I hear
October 18th, 2018 at 8:23 PM ^
This makes Dantonio have the madz!
October 18th, 2018 at 9:11 PM ^
*minora.
October 18th, 2018 at 5:36 PM ^
I think we will be coming in the healthiest we have been in awhile and so will MSU. Both teams at full strength is still a big advantage for us. Go Blue!
October 18th, 2018 at 6:06 PM ^
MSU isn't close to full health. Literally all of their receivers have some type of injury, their OL is beat up, and who knows with Scott. I suspect he will play. But regardless, MSU is still a beat up team.
October 18th, 2018 at 7:59 PM ^
My coworker is a big msu fan and did say he has some family friends that were walkon's just a few years ago at MSU and they have said that Scott will not play anymore this year..
Not sure i believe it, but it wouldnt surprise me either.
October 18th, 2018 at 9:03 PM ^
4/5 odds are LJ Scott sits out rest of year and gets the redshirt for next year.
October 18th, 2018 at 9:07 PM ^
Make those odds 3/9 and I'm in
October 18th, 2018 at 10:06 PM ^
I'll bet you twenty bucks I can get you gambling before the end of the day! I'll give you three to one odds.
October 18th, 2018 at 11:19 PM ^
5 out of 4 people are bad at fractions.
October 19th, 2018 at 3:44 AM ^
60% of the time, it works every time!
October 18th, 2018 at 5:47 PM ^
I will stand by my information that Gary will play Saturday and that last week was a game-time decision not to play.
Also, no “Bosa” issue with Gary.
I have no information regarding Black’s status.
October 18th, 2018 at 6:31 PM ^
I was always pretty skeptical of the guy. Not just because his hit rate was less than that of a true insider, but it always was a little weird that the guy seemed to be ostensibly hurting the program (leaking "insider" info) for internet respect. Then there were the people who always made way too big of a deal of any post he made or opinion he had. Not his fault there though.
But contradicting yourself in 24 hrs is pretty weird, especially if he he isn't at least putting some sort of explanation up.
But what do I know, I tend to have a problem with most of the poeple that post here.
October 18th, 2018 at 8:21 PM ^
"I tend to have a problem with most of the people that post here" should be the new banner motto.
October 19th, 2018 at 7:33 AM ^
lmao I was thinking the same thing
October 18th, 2018 at 7:56 PM ^
Fuck. What a catharsis.
October 18th, 2018 at 8:50 PM ^
Cool cool, insider trying to stay relevant during a week Harbaugh won’t discuss injuries.
October 18th, 2018 at 9:26 PM ^
All he needs is one play to plant "the lerk". PAIN is coming.
October 18th, 2018 at 9:28 PM ^
All he needs is one play to plant "the lerk". PAIN is coming.
October 18th, 2018 at 10:09 PM ^
Well you can play with Gary’s injury, it’s just a matter of pain tolerance.
October 18th, 2018 at 10:13 PM ^
I am curious as to who inside the Michigan athletic department actually reads MGoBlog? Some of the stuff posted by UMBig11 has ended up as tidbits thrown out in some of the more random threads on the MGoBoard. This person would have to be a real dedicated reader of the board to find some of this stuff.
October 18th, 2018 at 10:15 PM ^
I’m new to this site and wow have things change since 5 am this morning. I could piss up a flagpole and come up with this info.
October 18th, 2018 at 11:21 PM ^
Please do while lying on your back.
October 19th, 2018 at 5:45 AM ^
With a helicopter hovering above.
October 18th, 2018 at 11:24 PM ^
JH might give the ok for UMbig to post info.
With all the back & forth - how does Dantinio game plan....
October 19th, 2018 at 1:11 AM ^
I heard Milton is starting!
October 19th, 2018 at 7:02 AM ^
Take it for what its worth, I have very good information that Rashan will play on Saturday. He has been practicing and is still obviously banged up. Let the thrashing of me begin in 3.2.1......
October 19th, 2018 at 10:37 AM ^
I like getting updates from Umbig11
Some of his info is good, some not
I do dislike the worshiping that he gets.
"Oh look Umbig11 , all hail, he so wonderful!!!"
stuff like that. It's a little over the top
