WTKA Roundtable 10/3/2019: What Do You Do Well?
Things discussed:
- I figured out what to do with all the shirts HTTV backers say "give to someone deserving."
- Gave Shea some easy reads, half-field stuff that shows off his talent for throwing on the run and simplifies things.
- Offense scaled back significantly, especially RPOs and zone reads.
- Going to have to add some layers of complexity down the line.
- 1 million people taking an interception in stride tells you how badly we all want Shea to unleash the dragon
- Power/Inside Zone/Outside Zone: If you're running all of them you're not good at them. Have one you're really good at, one you're good at, and one you can surprise people with.
- Michigan's zone is too focused on getting to the LBs not scooping and sealing the DL.
- RBs are doing well; if Michigan can reincorporate the QB run game they're in business.
- Cam McGrone, Cam McGrone, Cam McGrone. His good things were opponent-invariant.
- Danna had a good game (opponent-variant), Dax Hill best athlete Michigan's had since…Charles?
- Ross to WLB?
- Two guys back on punt returns: response to Aussie punters.
- Iowa: Surprised by defensive falloff, offensive success. Todd McShay Big Ten West 1st Rounder of the Year.
- Ferentz saves up all his good decisions for this game (apparently so does Paul Chryst).
- Around the Big Ten: MSU defense great until Penix.

You should make a t-shirt of all those guys wearing the MGoBlog t-shirt.* It would be like a coffee table book about coffee tables.
*It couldn’t be any worse than the PSU excuses t-shirt.

The Penn State excuses shirt is my favorite shirt
October 4th, 2019 at 8:22 AM ^
That is a glorious picture
October 4th, 2019 at 9:19 AM ^
Thank you, but I think it is absurdly idiotic. Still, I like it.

Every time Sam quotes Al, or says "Al said", I die a little inside. Who gives 2 shits and a popsicle about what Al says. Good Lord
October 4th, 2019 at 8:34 AM ^
His commentary is oddly insightful
October 4th, 2019 at 8:29 AM ^
Why isn't Brian wearing the shirt? Where's his blog spirit?
October 4th, 2019 at 11:06 AM ^
I'm trying to decipher what his shirt actually says. So far I've got:
"I spent recess bowling with portly clergy"
did BC go to a catholic school?
October 4th, 2019 at 8:51 AM ^
A rare photo of Craig Ross has surfaced
October 4th, 2019 at 9:05 AM ^
Amazing how good McGrone looks when the Dline keeps him clean to get to the plays. That's how it works, it starts up front! Keep him clean against Iowa!
October 4th, 2019 at 9:15 AM ^
Haha that picture should be the banner
October 4th, 2019 at 10:16 AM ^
Thanks for the insights, guys.
P.S. I like Teeba's idea, a t-shirt with an image of you wearing the t-shirt.
October 4th, 2019 at 10:46 AM ^
Danna had a good game (opponent-variant), Dax Hill best athlete Michigan's had since…Charles?
Jabrill Peppers says “hi”.
October 4th, 2019 at 10:59 AM ^
Ugliest shirt I've ever seen.
October 4th, 2019 at 10:59 AM ^
Yes, Todd McShay loves (loved?) Nate Stanley:
October 4th, 2019 at 11:33 AM ^
Ira and Ed look NOTHING like I envisioned.
Craig looks EXACTLY like I pictured.
October 4th, 2019 at 1:28 PM ^
Yeah, but we have met several times.
October 4th, 2019 at 8:51 PM ^
A plus. Well done.
