Were you there? If so, can we get a little more?
December 2nd, 2010 at 9:22 PM ^
is coming in a big way
December 2nd, 2010 at 10:23 PM ^
Dude, that's disgusting.
December 2nd, 2010 at 11:18 PM ^
this dee hart thing has me frustrated
December 3rd, 2010 at 9:00 AM ^
to be prepared for his decommittment.
December 2nd, 2010 at 11:49 PM ^
Where do you get off saying something like that?
December 2nd, 2010 at 9:22 PM ^
I wonder what the general is feeling is like around there. I mean we hear about all of the former players and the alumni that want him gone. I guess I wish I could be a fly on the wall and really see how people socialize with him and how he is treated.
December 2nd, 2010 at 9:29 PM ^
If only someone could spend a day in Schembechler Hall...perspectives would be changed lol
December 2nd, 2010 at 11:28 PM ^
See, that's another reason I I am in RRs corner. His players seem to have a lot of faith in him. If they didn't they would have mailed it in. They have NEVER mailed it in. Never. If the players love you and they believe in you that team will succeed. It is happening at ISU. Yes, in at a smaller level than what we would like, but also with much less talent. That team believes in it's coach and wants to win for it's coach and they have done it against teams they shouldn't. I believe this Michigan team is just like that and it seems the ones who aren't on board don't play or leave.
December 3rd, 2010 at 8:37 AM ^
Looks like Mallett, Boren and others have essentially mailed it in. Basically we have no defense because all that's left are the players who haven't mailed it in and basically don't have much of an option to transfer. Not sure how much love they have given the whole fiasco with the NCAA policy violations (those were coming from players).
December 3rd, 2010 at 5:04 PM ^
Mallet left because it was obvious there were many better options for him. There was no fault in either party. It was just something that should have happened. Same with Threet. There are differing opinions on why Boren left. None of which really matter.
Now to your point on defense. It's ridiculous. Let's look at lost players:
Warren-Was poorly advised and went pro
Turner- Evidently not a huge stud based on the fact he has transferred again. This was more Turner than RR.
Woolfolk- Injury
Cissoko-You can't keep them all in line
Floyd-Again, injury.
Smith-?
Emilien-Was getting beat out at his position and decided COlordao was a better option. OK
Outside of injuries, where are the guys LC should have brought in? I see one in Warren and he went pro. The rest is of the secondary consists of one 5 year position diversification guru, a former walk on and a bunch 1st and 2nd year kids. Int erms of the front 7, outside of Martin, Van Bergen and Mouton, who have been developed under RR, there isn't much there. We have a true freshman getting significant playing time at DE on a 3 man line. Do you know how rare that is? Where are the 3rd, 4th and 5th year bodies?
December 2nd, 2010 at 9:22 PM ^
That will get you jacked up.
December 2nd, 2010 at 9:39 PM ^
Yeah, I play Josh Groban all the time on my ipod at the gym
December 2nd, 2010 at 9:22 PM ^
any way you can give any more info on this? What were the words directly before and after this? context will help a lot.
December 2nd, 2010 at 9:22 PM ^
RR and his comments, the more I like the guy. I have never met the man. I trust DB and pray that God gives him the guideance and wisdom.
December 2nd, 2010 at 11:37 PM ^
You have got to be kidding! He cried, he begged for his job, he had the crowd raise their hands and sing Josh Groban.
Yeah, he's a real inspiration.
It's obvious that RichRod is a clown, a clown that is in WAY over his head...the only question is whether David Brandon is in the same situation.
Who would have thought that Dee Hart decommitting wouldn't be the worst news of the day?
December 3rd, 2010 at 12:10 AM ^
Trollin, trollin, trollin.
How did all those "four star locks" work out for you guys? I see DeAnthony Arnett "took his talents to East Lansing" like you predicted......
December 3rd, 2010 at 1:43 AM ^
Big Ten title and Big Ten Coach of the Year. Also Scout.com's National Coach of the Year, with more to follow.
Are you really telling me you're happy with that speech? Do you guys always sing songs at the football banquet? You aren't worried that Brandon is crapping the bed? (See Beilein extension)
December 3rd, 2010 at 8:56 AM ^
My question is......why are you so obsessed with Michigan football as a Sparty fan that you are watching video of the Team Banquet?
Does that not strike anyone else as very weird?
FYI: It was Bill Martin who gave Beilein the extension. You've gotta find some new material now.
December 3rd, 2010 at 9:54 AM ^
He should be the Big Ten's luckiest coach of the year, with the pure luck wins over 3 teams that gave you the game..
What will there be to praise when u only win 7 or 8 next year
December 3rd, 2010 at 10:29 AM ^
Blah, blah, blah. Rabble, rabble, rabble. Spewing worthless drivel, spewing worthless drivel, spewing worthless drivel.
December 3rd, 2010 at 8:06 AM ^
Why are people like this not banned? Freedom of speech is overrated. At least without it you wouldn't have to hear dumb shit all the time.
December 3rd, 2010 at 9:31 AM ^
Thank you B10 or Bust. Were you there? This is going to hit YouTube (I haven't yet checked this morning) and is going to be embarrassing. Ugh.

Think of the hours Rich Rod works. Think of all the emotion he puts into getting things right with the team. He's passionate about the team and when you go through all the negativity he's gone thru at times, it only makes sense that he's so emotional. Like the guy or not, the certainly didn't picture things working out this way, and the negativity has taken its toll. Nobody wants to turn things around more than Coach Rod
December 3rd, 2010 at 7:26 AM ^
I think that what DB is putting him and the program through right now is wrong. He should make a decision and either fire him or stand by him.
December 3rd, 2010 at 9:27 AM ^
Bo never begged for his job.

Best comment of the night! Made me lol. Thanks for that.
December 3rd, 2010 at 12:09 AM ^
Blitz! No Rosa Parks!
Edit: Too soon?
December 2nd, 2010 at 10:15 PM ^
and one day when the detroit media has to explain all the BS they've put this program through...they're riding bitch
December 2nd, 2010 at 10:16 PM ^
Hell no.
December 3rd, 2010 at 12:56 AM ^
I like that you have 68 points so far from saying Shotgun. Pure brilliance.
December 2nd, 2010 at 9:52 PM ^
I plan on beating all the sorry-assed, miserable, low-life sob's that I know over the head with "the bandwagon is full".
Edit: thanks for the shotgun comment! I needed a laugh.
December 2nd, 2010 at 10:29 PM ^
After I read this I pictured Mike Martin getting so fired up he punched a hole through his table while giving the stink eye to Barwis. This in turn will lead to a cage match at the next UFC fight. Even if this didnt happen im still pretty pumped.
December 2nd, 2010 at 11:32 PM ^
I wonder if he hates being called RichRod or Rod? Anyway I might question his defensive schemes and decision making.. but I can't question the mans character or heart.
December 3rd, 2010 at 9:23 AM ^
Players call him "Coach Rod"
December 2nd, 2010 at 9:25 PM ^
Louis is all in for RR, for Meeeeechigan, and for the Michigan Locomotive!! M-I-C-H-I-G-A-N!!!!!!
December 2nd, 2010 at 9:31 PM ^
I'm not sure what to think of that statement ,with that said, I think as much of this coach as any that we have had.
I will follow this coach into the depths of hell....god bless my friend.
December 2nd, 2010 at 9:28 PM ^
...he must read the Mgoboardz.....
"Our time is coming, and it's coming in a big way. We'll let people jump on the bandwagon. They may not get a front seat."

I truly hope he hasn't had time to read for the last couple of weeks.
