Does he honestly believe…

Does he honestly believe what he’s saying?? A grown man, football coach, leader of young men, and he’s spewing this garbage. He doesn’t even have to address it. Others in Ohio would do that for him. Just say ‘no comment.’ What an embarrassment of a coach. 

In a game in which both…

In a game in which both teams have phenomenal athletes on both sides of the ball, once again, coaching and player development wins. I know it’s obvious, but point proven again. 
 

We are so blessed to have Harbaugh, Moore, Minter, Jaybaugh, Clinkscale, Hart, Partridge, Bellamy, Elston, Campbell, Newsome, Herbert and everyone else I’m forgetting.

I have to thank Brian for creating the whole MGoBlogospere, Seth for his leadership, Alex, moms, and all the members and posters. Without you all, I think I would go insane. Knowing that there is a whole community, thousands of people, that also sees this as the witch-hunt that it is, allows me to keep some level of sanity in this insane world. 
 

This whole situation goes far beyond Petitti’s incompetence. I’m trying to piece together the larger agenda, because there has to be one. On its face, these accusations are barely a blip in the CFB world.

There’s a level of hatred and spite toward Harbaugh that I really can’t understand. Please sign him to an extension tomorrow after the victory.

At different times got to hang with Vinnie Paul, Zakk Wylde and Mike Inez.

Asked Vinnie if I could buy him a drink in Vegas. He said only if I get one too and sit with him (and his entourage). Stayed there all night like we were best friends. RIP

Met Sober Zakk Wylde with a friend who had some business with him. True gentleman. Intelligent and articulate. Sat for hours before he headed to Columbus. We both hate that town, for different reasons.

Inez shares my love for hockey. Talked for an hour about that before he had to go. He’d chase people away to keep talking to me about the game. He was heading to the Hockey Hall of Fame when their tour hit Canada.

My parents took me to my first game at 6 years old, a 52-0 drubbing of Duke in 1978. I was hooked. This was the greatest team at the greatest university in the world. 

The image of the teams warming up while standing at the top of the stairs in the north end zone is burned into my mind forever. 

Every year now, as a (semi) responsible adult, I try to care less, be more human on fall Saturdays. Every year I fail. I have now accepted my fandom, blamed my parents for it, and passed it on to my children. 
 

Hard times will make the Glory that much sweeter. 
 

Thank you, Seth.

Brian is tracking down Tyler Ecker to ask him why he didn’t pitch it to Breaston. 

Worst coaching performance…

Worst coaching performance of the tourney. Loyola ran the same action - big guy hands to guard coming off the wing at the elbow - 50 times. Illini tried to fight thru and just couldn’t. Left Kofi in a tough spot, and he clearly didn’t know how to play it. Zero adjustments to it. 
 

And the energy from Ayo and Kofi just wasn’t there. It was the same Illini team that lost to State, not the one that beat Michigan.

23-13 M 

Uncomfortable most of the way. Finally pull away very late. 

Just one time I’d like…

Just one time I’d like someone who is in charge of things to do the right thing, speak the truth and take a stand. Delaney, Hollis, Dantonio, Engler, Simon, Smith (G&Z), Drake, Meyer, JoePa, Durkin, etc.  The List could go on and on and on.  Money and Power continue to corrupt our sport. So I get Brian’s take. 

However, I watched these kids travel to Europe like a family, bust ass for their coach and teammates, and prepare for a season that they can’t wait to play.  I’m 100% in for them, and for the good that’s left in the sport!

Go Blue. To Hell with Notre Dame. 

I don’t remember any of what…

I don’t remember any of what you’re talking about. Bad memory. Maybe the meds I’m on. 

It’s spelled out in his…

It’s spelled out in his contract what he should have done. Report it to his superiors. That’s it. He knew about it. He didn’t follow university guidelines. 

Had he reported it, he then could have worked with/or taken the advice of the administration to either fire Smith or keep him on staff. Either way, he’d be clean because he followed the guidelines spelled out in his contract, whether that was in his old contract or new. 

He didn’t follow protocol, then lied. 

Police involvement, Mrs.Smith, Urban’s wife, Earl Bruce, etc. doesn’t matter. He had a responsibility to report. He didn’t. It’s just now a matter of whether OSU deems it a fireable offense.

 

 

At least Bob Evans got it…

At least Bob Evans got it right. 

Urban has been described as…

Urban has been described as a micromanager, taking it upon himself to know finite details about his players and coaches. 

He also describes his wife as his confidante and best friend, and that they, “share everything.” 

There is just no way that he didn’t at least know something about Zach Smith and his abusive relationship with his spouse. 

I’m just waiting to see whether OSU does the right thing, or goes the route of MSU and circles the wagons. It’s a 50-50 proposition. I wouldn’t be surprised either way. 

John 5

John 5 is incredible.  His work with Rob Zombie doesn't do him justice. His solo albums are indescribable. He also does a lot of session work in all different genres. Crazy talent that's always pushing himself.

Jesus

I thought when Jesus left Chicago, he was bound for New Orleans . . . not Mississippi.

Grievances

1)  At minimum, the second best team in college football is not in the playoffs.

2)  It's not a 'Natty' it's a National Championship.

3)  Wisky is nothing.  It's either whiskey - which is wonderful - or Wisconsin, which is an average to above averge college football team.

 

Offense vs Defense

Not sure how this defense can be anything but #1. Offense is good but not #3. Rankings do not compute.

Game

Our offense is a little better than theirs. Our defense is a little better than theirs. Our special teams are definitely better than theirs. Our coaching staff is better than theirs. The only way we lose is turnovers. If we win that battle, I expect an early grind turning into a comfortable victory.

Badger Friend

Badger friend refuses to watch the game with us. He feels the loss coming and doesn't want to have a tantrum and throw things in front of our other friends and family. He will watch it alone in his basement. Which I totally respect. I root for Bucky every other week of the year for him.

MSU vs Wisconsin

These 3 plays made the difference in an otherwise pretty even game:

1) Fumble return for touchdown

2) Dropped punt snap

3) TOC pick instead of hitting Corley wide open in the endzone

I know that most games come down to a few plays, but this definitely wasn't Wisconsin domination.  Domination is what happened in Ann Arbor Saturday. 

Wisconsin's QB made some great throws, for sure, but there were a few that were poor decisions that worked out well for them.  There were at least 2 that could have been picked, but were completed instead. It was a perfect storm for Wisconsin to win as big as they did. Granted overall, I think they were better. Their D-line was impressive, but 16-13 is what it felt like after rewatching.

Point being; if M can win comfortably vs a Wisconsin team that was pretty evenly matched with Sparty, then I see this train rolling comfortably into Columbus undefeated. So yes, this game will adjust my expectations. I was thinking 10-2 with a win over Sparty. Big win here, and 11-1 should be the floor.

 

 

I will attend

And I will Boo in protest until I pass out, I'll get up, and then Boo some more. Then leave. I hate PSU.  Hatred like no other.

We're getting Gavrilo Princip?

Does he enable pedophiles?

You going to SC?

NFL

I understand if JH wants to stay in the NFL. But despite the extenuating circumstances (contract, possible trade, family) if he chooses the Raiders or Jets over us, that will hurt.
