That blows my mind. Talk about a weird guy from a weird place. Duncan Robinson from D3 Williams. But good for Duncan and good for Beilein.

And I'm sure the local "authorities" in Columbus looked the other way.

Working for Brian Kelly must be its own particular brand of hell.

Indeed we should and I plan to. The Chargers are now my second favorite NFL team.

After about 40 years I just reread Catch 22. That is a masterpiece.

But who recruited them??

First I’ve heard of it.

I never understood the…

I never understood the shotgun wedding of Jim Harbaugh and Josh Gattis. They knew each other for what, 48 hours? 

This whole thing is so…

This whole thing is so sleazy. I’m for players getting paid but there must be a set of rules governing how this works. And a real and enforceable mechanism for holding everyone accountable.

All of this depresses me. Money…money…money. Maybe I should just declare our National Championship as the apex of my Michigan football fandom and ride off into the sunset with a smile on my face. But then I suffer (sometimes) from the curse of self awareness and realize I’m addicted with no 12 step program in sight.

Look at how much bigger he…

Look at how much bigger he is than Will Johnson! Of the last three years this play is 1A. The full A belongs to Mikey Sainristil.

RB: budding greatness derailed by injury. Westland John Glenn’s Tony Boles. 
 

Boles has had a difficult life. Drug addiction, robbery, multiple incarcerations. Very sad.

I did click it. That's two minutes I'll never get back.

Me thinks Yzerman has already made his big in season move. Kane has looked stupendous. But, if Stevie can land a top tier goalie I wouldn’t object.

Am I crazy to talk up the Tigers? Winning a very winnable central is a reasonable expectation. I like their young players.

Wolverines, Red Wings, Lions, Tigers. Anyone missing? 

Oddibe young again McDowell.

No thank you.

No thank you.

You would think the NCAA…

You would think the NCAA would spend its time figuring out how to survive paying billions of dollars in legal damages. But they would rather rearrange the deck chairs on the Titanic.

Well, I do not know how to…

Well, I do not know how to operate a train. I probably have not been on a train in, oh, 30 years. But I do know a train wreck when I see one.

I've always felt a bit sorry…

I've always felt a bit sorry for Brian Ellerbe. He was promoted to the job because he was standing there when Fisher was fired and his name wasn't Brian Dutcher. And his boss, Tom Goss, was completely out of his element as AD. Ellerbe probably wouldn't have succeeded anyway but he never had a chance. Not with Goss as his boss. Not with Lee Bollinger as his bosses boss. 

I forgot all about Katarina…

I forgot all about Katarina Witt. Nice smile!

Part of the issue? Was Brian Ellerbe part of the issue?

I have this memory that we…

I have this memory that we flipped Roundtree from Purdue on signing day, or the day before it. And Joe Tiller was pissed. Called us snake oil salesmen. How quaint.

"not a bad gig, compensation…

"not a bad gig, compensation-wise."

But man...you work your ass off for it. And a mob on social media will descend upon you like locusts should you do anything wrong.

Director of Sports Science and Sign Stealing?

I’ve heard from so many “friends” laughing at how amateurish the whole Stalions thing was. Now I can puff my chest out since we’ve moved the whole thing to a Director Level. Reductio ad absurdum. Not that any Sparty would get it.

So he needs to...

1. Find a place with decent success and decent coaching

2. Play major snaps.

3. Get some money but not necessarily top dollar.

Gotta do what you gotta do. If getting to the league is the highest priority then get to a situation that will get you maximum exposure. If I'm correct about all this I can not blame Keon at all. Good luck. You will always have 2023.

Whoever they are, shut the program down! This is the worst scandal in college football history! No, wait, in American history!!

Sigh. I suppose there is only so much uncertainty a guy can put up with.

"With that said, I'd be very…

"With that said, I'd be very curious what confluence of events make one person want to fatally harm another person."

Anger? Complete alienation? Free floating hatred? Desire to "go out blazing"? 15 minutes of fame on Social Media?

These are very troubling times. We have created technologies for which society is ill adapted. And we witness the wreckage every day. I fear we are nearing a societal nervous breakdown.
