Been reading Mgo since I was…

Been reading Mgo since I was 13, 27 now, so over half my life. Never thought I would get to read this post. Thanks for everything Brian! 

Pearson will likely be…

Pearson will likely still be signing a new contract with Michigan, from what I’ve heard. 

Actually, now that I think…

Actually, now that I think about it, has this been confirmed anywhere? Not sure he has said anything one way or the other 

Low key huge that Donovan…

Low key huge that Donovan Jeter is coming back for a 6th year. 

Incredibly sad. All time…

Incredibly sad. All time great play by play announcer.

Incredibly sad. All time…

Incredibly sad. All time great play by play announcer.

Your missing the point bro…

You’re missing the point bro. This wasn’t a Harbaugh complaint post, I meant that OSU is so far ahead that Michigan has no real chance of catching them even if everything goes perfectly.

I’m generally optimistic…

I’m generally optimistic about our future, winning most of our games, 9-10 wins a year, but being competitive with Ohio State seems legitimately impossible, no matter who our coach is. They are simply on another level that Michigan, as a program, cannot match. 

Getting passed by true…

Getting passed by true freshman tends to make people reconsider their place on the team. 

It’s clear that Harbaugh and…

It’s clear that Harbaugh and the AD want to just win as many games as possible. Fans will respond better to wins, even against bad opponents, compared to a loss against a good one. I believe Harbaugh was extremely upset that Michigan was scheduled to travel to Washington and UCLA. There wasn’t enough time to cancel Washington, but he hated the fact Michigan was scheduling road games on the west coast.

If it hasn’t occurred to you…

If it hasn’t occurred to you yet, Ace is kind of insane.

 

Everyone on this blog is so…

Everyone on this blog is so fucking whiny, holy shit. How can anyone possibly care this much about the spring game.

Imagine being a lefty and…

Imagine being a lefty and siding with megacorp lol

We are vaccinating at a pace…

We are vaccinating at a pace where the virus will absolutely be crushed by this summer, so I feel good about this.

People are being way too…

People are being way too pessimistic. There’s no reason we shouldn’t be back to 100 percent normality by July or August with the rate we’re vaccinating people.

Ah, didn’t know that. I’ve…

Ah, didn’t know that. I’ve always thought making the players sing the alma mater was weird, most of them clearly don’t want to. It’s more fun for the fans and alumni.

Feel like the pretty obvious…

Feel like the pretty obvious solution to this is that the song stays the fight song, is played at games but if any player doesn't want to participate, they don't have to. 

For some reason, people aren…

For some reason, people aren’t realizing that Warde had absolutely no interest in firing Harbaugh. People keep talking about the money when they should be starting from a place where Warde didn’t even consider firing him. 

Inside information: Warde’s…

Inside information: Warde’s contract extension should be announced soon. 

Based on the recruiting news…

Based on the recruiting news, it seems likely that our defensive staff is getting gutted, but the offensive staff is mostly returning.

Lol, he would 100% accept a…

Lol, he would 100% accept a Michigan offer, no one believes this.

Did you have this pre typed…

Did you have this pre typed and ready to go? Impressive honestly

Honestly, Penn State is in a…

Honestly, Penn State is in a worse spot than us because Franklin isn’t going anywhere. Harbaugh, at least, is probably done.

 

Honestly the biggest…

Honestly the biggest question is how did it get this bad this year? This team is infinitely worse than the worst Harbaugh team, 2017. We knew what we had in Harbaugh before this year, a coach that would win most games but fall short of championships. Like wtf is this, just makes no sense. 

He’s not coaching right now,…

He’s not coaching right now, but this is absolutely not the reason why. It’s non football related.

Running backs, linebackers,…

Running backs, linebackers, safeties, and possibly wide receiver are all better than the defensive line.

No, it’s more that Michigan…

No, it’s more that Michigan is replacing a lot of starters this year while Penn State is bringing back almost its entire team. Michigan slightly out recruits Penn State.

There’s no conspiracy here…

There’s no conspiracy here people lol. Everyone is playing their “permanent” crossover game and the one scheduled road game against the other division. Stop being stupid.

I’m pro big ten cancelling…

I’m pro big ten cancelling the season, but man it makes no fucking sense that basically everything in society is a go except big ten football. 

If you watch games from the…

If you watch old games from the 90s, it seems like America went through a white t-shirt phase. Someone older than me can confirm or deny. 

This sucks, but if we get…

This sucks, but if we get Drew Kendall, we’ll be fine 

Trying to play is just such…

Trying to play is just such a terrible fucking idea and the administrators that let it happen will only have themselves to blame when this turns into a shit show.

No disagreement. I’m just…

No disagreement. I’m just saying threatening to not play is not exactly as big a deal this year as it would be other years. 

They have less leverage now…

They have less leverage now than ever before though

There’s a chance that either…

There’s a chance that either the cases  are a lot lower then than they are now, or there’s a vaccine by then. Neither are guarantees, but both are plausible. 

I know it’s a logistical…

I know it’s a logistical nightmare, but it seems like a much better idea to just cancel everything this year and try to have a Spring season.

This would be a huge…

This would be a huge recruiting win. Seemed like he was 100 percent to Oregon a couple weeks ago, though we may have gotten lucky because Oregon is in on a ton of highly rated receivers. Worthy is a future star. 

I suspect both this case and…

I suspect both this case and the Anderson case will be dismissed in court, but we’ll see. Neither seem to really have a case against the University. 

Mental illness 

Mental illness 

Also, even if Michigan does…

Also, even if Michigan does the “right” thing here, they are only doing it to protect the brand, not to be leaders in protecting victims of sexual assault. The University knows what the public cares about, so they are just doing whatever they think will make themselves look good, even if they spend a fortune. This entire story is just going to be PR bullshit, the truth doesn’t matter. 

Imagine thinking that this…

Imagine thinking that this was a problem in any way. The University is absolutely petrified of people on social media thinking they did something wrong so they will be milked of hundreds of millions of dollars to appease twitter.

Brendan Quinn made it pretty…

Brendan Quinn made it pretty clear on the Moving Screen podcast that John Beilein wanted the New York game to happen. So Warde was just doing what Beilein asked. 

How do people end up like…

How do people end up like this. What is wrong with people lol.

These round tables are funny…

These round tables are funny because Brian comes off as a dick but is also almost always right lmao. 

Don't know why people are…

Don't know why people are questioning Brian's grading on Patterson. He left a lot on the field with inaccurate passing and got a massive amount of YAC from the receivers. Many of these throws were wide open that any QB should be able to hit. Patterson was by no means bad, he was pretty good, but the stat line does not tell the whole story. 

A mediocre Patterson…

A mediocre Patterson probably still allows a 10-14 point win here. A blowout is likely with the good version of Patterson. The only way I see a loss is just an avalanche of mistakes, fumbles penalties whatever. 

I'm fine with this if the…

I'm fine with this if the plan is to schedule ND in 2028. Otherwise, not good. 

Lol, blast from the past…

Lol, blast from the past. Classic Rich Rod blow up. 

Can any band experts tell me…

Can any band experts tell me if they changed anything because there is no way they are that loud nowadays, unless this video just has super good microphones. 

I hate doing game by game…

I hate doing game by game predictions, but 10-2 seems by far the most likely record. Toughest games being Ohio State, @ Penn State, and Notre Dame in that order.
