Did you happen to see the FOUR perfectly thrown deep balls in the first half?
December 6th, 2017 at 12:45 AM ^
I was grinning ear to ear while watching the first half. The final quarter was rough to watch and honestly reminded me of JOK scrambling behind our line with our receivers dropping the few throws that weren't off the mark. A couple of grounding calls, a pick six, and the game capped off with a 4th down unabated sack felt all to familiar.
Don't get me wrong, I think the kid can ball out and hope to hell he comes, but I think Speight and JOK would have been serviceable (all injuries aside) if the O-line and WR problems weren't as bad as they were.
December 6th, 2017 at 6:03 PM ^
JOK was not a serviceable D1 quarterback. I'm sorry but it was pathetic to watch his lack of actual QB competency needed to play at that level.
December 6th, 2017 at 1:48 AM ^
Holy shit, I didn't think it was possible, but our Pass-Pro and WRs will actually be an upgrade.
He's certainly battle-tested for anything bad he'll see here at Michigan.
(Watching this video may be the first time I have ever openly rooted for Ole Miss. It was an out of body experience.)

on the port side. Now that I've got you, let's both revisit the birth of the D'oyly Carte Opera Company.

Now there saying seven players interested in Michigan. If one of them is Greg Little that solves the void at LT. Add Anderson and Van Jefferson and you have QB, LT, Safety and WR. All these guys will probably be in the nfl.
Michigan will be flat out loaded and a favorite for the playoffs. I could easily see them ranked #1 to start the season. Michigan's defense is going to be better than this years. We will miss Hurst but Solomon will be special also. More speed on defense.and a top fuel offense.
If Harbaugh pulls this off there will be a lot of pissed off people from other teams. You snooze you lose. Little is the game breaker. We will steam roll teams.

You misunderstand. There saying, not they're saying. There is a place on the inside, but not an insider, as you say.

Is a huge upgrade over Metellius, IMO.
Assuming he can piuck up the scheme and DB defense.
December 6th, 2017 at 8:47 AM ^
I'm OK with Metellus and Kinnel, but if Anderson wants in... Yeah, there needs to be a place for him.

If we get 7 (or for that matter IMO more than 3) Ole Miss players the NCAA is going to screw us in some way that doesn't allow them to play right away. Just a gut feeling.
December 6th, 2017 at 1:46 AM ^
December 6th, 2017 at 2:08 AM ^
December 6th, 2017 at 2:20 AM ^
Hell yeah. Those 2 guys alone would be awesome. Hoping for the addition of Jefferson at least. DPJ, Black, Jefferson, Crawford, Perry, Collins, and Martin, well...that's a wr corps you can believe in.
December 6th, 2017 at 7:42 AM ^
He was considered a transfer risk before, and I think this just might seal the deal.
December 6th, 2017 at 8:05 AM ^
Even though he hasn't done that much in terms of numbers, he's blocked well and shown the ability to make plays. He coukd really thrive with BP at the helm.
And every time one of the players in our secondary is asked who is the toughest receiver to cover, they mention Kekoa.
December 6th, 2017 at 10:16 AM ^
Gentry or Eubanks could easily fill the blocking WR role. I like Crawford but his inability to high point or track deep balls is severely limiting his upside.
It even seems like jet sweep specialist McDoom has passed him on the depth chart at outside WR.
December 6th, 2017 at 2:32 AM ^
Shea with butter.
December 6th, 2017 at 6:10 AM ^
Touché!

Double the respect and adulation of umbig11! That's the way it works, right? Even though in stark contrast to umbig11 I have no insider information, and my M.O. would be to make up crazy stuff and post it as facts?
Oh, that isn't how it works? Well, nevermind then. Here's a kitten, anxiously awaiting news on Shea Patterson.
December 6th, 2017 at 9:21 AM ^
Do you think they will still come even if they aren't immediately eligible?
December 6th, 2017 at 2:33 AM ^
Can we get a quick clarification please?
To what extent are the 7 interested & to what extent would we be "lucky" due to them actually being willing to come?
What I mean is--what's the limiting factor here?
Is it pure scholarship slots on our end? As in, we can cherry pick any of the 3 or 4 out of the 7 and they'd all come, but it's just up to us to decide how to do the roster management?
Or is it more "some are somewhat interested, but not solid w/ Michigan yet"? As in, we'd be willing to bring in the whole lot, but it's likely half of them will end up wanting to do something else?
Or is it that they're all highly interested, we've got enough scholarships, but 2-3 of them might not be a "take" for us b/c we are already set at the position & don't want to burn a scholarship on overkill?
December 6th, 2017 at 8:29 AM ^
This seems to be the closet of the option you laid out.

Patterson, Little, Anderson, Van Jefferson = NC. Fills all of Michigan's weak spots. If they get those four guys this will be the best Michigan team ever. And that ain't no B.S..
December 6th, 2017 at 10:58 AM ^
QB Shea Patterson: take him
S Deontay Anderson: take him (we need safeties)
WR Van Jefferson: maybe take him (we are deep but young at WR; gives Patterson a known target)
OT Greg Little: take him (but he doesn't appear to be interested)
LB Breon Dixon (4 star recruit in 2017): sure why not
OT Bryce Mathews (4 star recruit in 2016): take him, huge need
TE Jacob Mathis (4 star recruit in 2016): no need
So from this list, I go with Patterson, Anderson, Mathews, and one of Little, Dixon, or Jefferson.
December 6th, 2017 at 11:07 AM ^
I do not believe Breon Dixon is a take.
I'm hearing 3 is the number and that Little is not coming. But staff also believes we may have a big weekend on other fronts so giddy up!

If this had happened one year earlier and Patterson was at UofM in 2017....worst case scenario is that we would be 10-2. No way we lose to MSU or OSU if we had Patterson.
December 6th, 2017 at 9:25 AM ^
Who the fuck was running for their life this year. Make your drop back and deliver the ball. Most of Michigan's problems were on delayed blitzes. No Quarterback has a clean pocket everytime he drops back. Patterson moves very well and delivers the ball with accuracy outside of the pocket.
Everytime they blitz a linebacker the ball should be going to the TE or running back in the flat. Patterson will also take off and run if you bring your linebackers. There are so many ways to beat pressure. Patterson will be returnng the favor to osu as he will take off and run, but he can throw the ball also. Just in case so everyone knows, Jim Harbaugh knows what he is doing. He took over the play calling near the end of the year. Patterson's best throw is to the TE running a seam route. Teams are going to get sick of Michigan's TE's running straight down the middle of the field wide open.
Anyway's Michigan's line will be just fine. Have a feeling we may be getting a new LT from ole miss. Would'nt that be nice.
