Snowflake Thread: QB Redshirts

Living in Texas as you apparently do, I can see why you'd try to cover with the "Straight" in your user name there Dave... but here on Mgoblog you're free to be whoever you were born to be.
And if you wanna diss Michigan HS football, just stay the Hell in Texas!
Desmond Howard, Charles Woodson, Tom Brady, Chad Henne, Mario Manninham, Steve Breaston, Taylor Lewan, Marlin Jackson, Mike Hart,... I could go on all DAY! Nuff Said?!
Oh, and Jake Long!!!

Jake Long was the only guy out of that list that played Michigan HS football...

OMG - there WAS a time on this blog you didn't have to go "/s" EVERY time you employed satire, hyperbole or sarcasm!!!
WTF happened? The more popular the blog gets (Congrats on that Brian & Seth) the more LCD the discourse becomes.
The very idea that someone who regularly visits this blog and even occasionally posts would read a post by a like person and not KNOW that the entire list wasn't from Michigan intentionally and feel the need to inform them of that fact is F*g frightening!
Please take the razzing of "Straight Dave" for using "Straight" in his user name in the same spirit... methinks he doth attest too much!
Jeebus Lord, where did the people who "get it" go on this blog?!

That is a scenario with no apparent downside... Speight can mop up just fine, should we be blessed with more opportunities to do that.
If we NEED to play another QB, Shane will get the first shot I'd imagine.
And dude who replied just ahead of me - if Freddie Mercury says "Per Twitter" then that's good enough!!!

Shane is already a junior and this was his opportunity. I have a feeling that if he doesn't compete for the job this year that will seal his chance to ever be a starting QB here unless O'Korn is really not that good. He has great physical tools, so I hope I'm wrong, but his lack of playing time tells me he isn't improving on his weaknesses. Especially when you have a guy like Gentry who will probably RS this year and be a back up next. You'd expect him to be the starting QB after that. Then, you have a guy like Peters coming in who looks great, but would have the opportunity to RS if Gentry can be the guy. There are only so many guys that can get snaps.

Who knows. He could be in Harbaugh's doghouse. Maybe Harbaugh wants to build Ruddock's confidence because right now he's the guy. Maybe he tweaked an injury. It could be any number of reasons, but just because he didn't come in during the one opportunity he could have doesn't support the idea that the contrary is true.

Doesn't happen often unless you're injured, but you can. Notable example is Kelly Olynyk at Gonzaga. Redshirted his 3rd year I believe

Naw, go ahead, be THAT guy - that WRONG GUY!!! ;-)

Is it my imagination or was Spielman trying to scare good receivers out of coming to Michigan? He was way overdoing it on the conservative offense thing.
September 12th, 2015 at 4:29 PM ^
September 12th, 2015 at 4:46 PM ^
He should have also pointed out that it's more conservative now than it will be once everything is functioning as expected. I thought he called a good game but may have drifted a little too far in that direction.
