Too old anyway

I would normally agree but…

I would normally agree but in this case more turnover might be better.  The team needs a new attitude and new leadership.  It will be a rough year next year, but it may speed up the process to get better.

I got negged when I suggested he would be interested in earlier posts.

Onward and upward.  Let's bring in an experience coach with a track record of success.

He's hiring another firm to weight his options for him.

This one from his article…

This one from his article screams Michigan State source:

"One source who was briefed on the allegation said Michigan is being accused of using a “vast network” to steal opposing teams’ signs. The alleged evidence appears to suggest UM had knowledge of what play an opposing team was going to run before the play occurs."

They both posted the story around noon on 19th.  

Not sure on the Michigan…

Not sure on the Michigan side.  I'd say Nick B. is closer to the football program.  Quinn definitely is on the Michigan State side.  As described above Izzo wants a close relationship with the media and he basically is the athletic department there.  Also, the leak of this story wasn't coming from Michigan.  This was the Michigan State game week and they were extremely concerned about player safety....

The Athletic's golf and…

The Athletic's golf and college basketball writer is somehow the lead writer on this story on October 19th.  You don't have to be the Day Detective Agency to know what's going on.

I still think it's that Quinn first broke the sign stealing story.  It obviously came from Izzo to him.  Izzo definitely knows the importance of keeping friends in the media.

Apple is by far the best.  Peach is second for me.  The best peach glaze pie I've ever had came from a place called Groff's on the Wildwood boardwalk at the Jersey shore. I would eat it damn near every day when we were there over the summer.

Schools hiring firms to run…

Schools hiring firms to run investigations seems to have gotten out of control.  What a racket for these firms pretending to be independent while getting paid by the administrators that obviously want a certain outcome.

Kwame left the city of Detroit in better shape than Juwan is leaving this program. What a fucking disaster.

I wonder what effort backing off would look like compared to this.

Not a fan of Elon but I appreciate what he is doing to push our limits in spaceX.  My friend and U of M aerospace grad at NASA for 25 years is definitely following closely.

Can someone please do a bad photoshop of Alford in Michigan gear?

I'm betting PSU at -7.  I think we lose by 20.  By the advanced stats umhoops posts, we are twice as bad as the second worst big ten team.

Thank you for your service…

Thank you for your service of listening to that human excrement.

Wonder if he knows anything about Day's private investigator or any other unsavory stuff within the program...

That's true.  Maybe our strong culture could deal with that better than the Kiffin clown show.

Why not?  Hook him up with a couple car dealerships and steak restaurants.

Maybe he'll bring Judkins, the transfer RB that committed right after the national championship game.

Cool.  Bring the playbook…

Cool.  Bring the playbook and signs.  Buckeyes will have a decade's worth of excuses.

That's a strange combination…

That's a strange combination on a hat and one of the few Michigan things I can safely say that I would never want.

Even the Michigan basketball…

Even the Michigan basketball team thinks the Red Wings are playing embarrassingly bad.

He had to figure out where Harbaugh was first.  Now he's reading about the basketball team.

Maybe Warde just woke up from a 2 month nap.

I just spent an hour walking around campus while waiting for the Michigan Daily to open so I could pick my football front page order.  It is crazy how much the campus has changed since the 90s. The hill and South U don't feel like the same place.  Not worse just different.

I love that he'll likely end up on the Giants and Mike Valenti will have to cheer for him.

You watching a commercial on gameday foots the bill.

That's a great honor.  In before the thread gets locked.

Only on his deep balls in my opinion.  I think Zach Wilson is a pretty good comparison coming out of college.  JJ is a better leader and has better intangibles though.

I don't remember him being against player compensation.

Here's a recent interview with him and some actual quotes:

“I should never say never about getting back into coaching,” Beilein said. “Who knows? They say it’s better to retire early than late. If the perfect opportunity came along, I would strongly consider the perfect opportunity.”
