Input: [Date] 4 days 19 hours ago [Body] Four conferences, 20 teams in each. Each conference consists of four divisions, 5 teams each. Scheduling is handled like the NFL does. Each season you pit two divisions against each other to get as close to schedule balance as possible. 9 conference games. 2 out of conference games. Each team plays 11 games total. Each conference has a 4 team playoff (the 4 division winners) on Thanksgiving weekend + the weekend after. The four conference winners move on to the already established 4 team CFB Championship playoff. Non playoff bowls remain in tact. Boom, you have a psuedo 16 team playoff with "decent" balance. If there's some team who sets the world on fire, and isn't part of the 4 "power" conferences, so sorry. [Title]

Output: The solution

Input: [Date] 6 days 20 hours ago [Body] Always thought this should be a Homecoming thing. Honor the players of the past by having their numbers out on the field again for one home game per season. Gives the players a chance to still have their own identity and make a name for themselves, possibly becoming a legend jersey down the road. [Title]

Output: Homecoming


Input: [Date] 3 weeks 5 days ago [Body] Some people are just not good at assessing risk, or perhaps have that "invincible" feeling. It's like the millionaires who get drunk and drive home when they could easily afford a driver for the evening. If JPP wanted to see things go boom so badly, he could have easily hired some professionals to do it. Instead he did this, and is going to lose Millions in the process. Rightly so. [Title]

Output: Not good at assessing risk


Input: [Date] 3 weeks 6 days ago [Body] Very rarely in life are you paid what you're worth. You're paid what you can negotiate. We've proven to Nike that we will go get that money if one of their competitors dangles it in our face. If they wanted Michigan back in the fold so badly, they were going to have to make the deal sweet enough to pull it off. I'm sure there are piles of market research that back up the deal too. Michigan brings a whole bunch of customers to the table that places like FSU simply don't. It will be interesting to see what OSU does when their contract comes up. EDIT: Oh, and it probably helps that we have an Uber high profile football coach who will now be donning the swoosh everywhere he goes. [Title]

Output: Negotiate


Input: [Date] 4 weeks 6 days ago [Body] The latest prime examples of how some rich people should stay out of sports franchise ownership. That hubris that leads them to believe that they can brute force their way to the top is fascinating to watch in action though. I guess it makes sense. What they can offer players is regulated. So Vivek is going to throw bags of money at coaches and front office guys to try and get it done. Good luck, but your only ways to win in todays NBA is to draft a future hall of famer or two, or find a way to lure free agents. The latter is pretty impossible to do in Sacremento. [Title]

Her voice was noticably different between the singing parts and the live mic parts where she yelled out to the crowd. Also there were parts where there was no movement whatsoever in her throat and upper chest while she was "singing," no variations whatsoever when she was singing and moving around. This came up a couple years ago with Red Hot Chili Peppers not even having their instrumetns plugged in. They pre-record most of the live music at these events. [Title]

Input: [Date] 6 days 22 hours ago [Body] Count me disappointed about this. I liked it, and I like that it was unique. If they're not going to be on the field, I hope they put up a ring of honor or something at least. This feels like another over-compensation to burn to the ground the Brandon/Hoke era, much like Brandon/Hoke did to the RR era. I would prefer a more nuanced approch, but whatever. Just win games. [Title]

Output: Count me disappointed about

Input: [Date] 5 weeks 3 days ago [Body] Agree. Honestly, I haven't been that impressed with her so far. Or at least she hasn't lived up to expectations. DiCicco called it out on air; when she has her back to goal she turns the ball over. Germany will know that cold. [Title]

Output: Agree. Honestly, I haven't


Input: [Date] 5 weeks 3 days ago [Body] That was a really tough physical game as well. Lots of fouls, and both teams looked gassed at the end. And the US gets Rapinoe and Holiday back. Should be a good game. Really hope the US can pull it out, but I still doubt they can win it. [Title]

Output: That was a really tough


Input: [Date] 5 weeks 3 days ago [Body] Shame it ended with only 1 goal, but it definitely looked like the US' best game in the tourney so far. I think taking out the usual veterans, especially Wambach, really helped shake up the offensive flow. [Title]

Input: [Date] 5 weeks 3 days ago [Body] Being a sports fan with no connection personally to the people on the team (and that's the vast majority of all of us) is an inherently irrational venture to begin with. I've just chose to fully embrace the irrationality. It makes things much less stressful. So, yeah, Harbaugh coaches at UM, which is the team I'm a fan of, so whatever he does is fine. As long as he wins. [Title]

Output: Being a sports fan with no


Input: [Date] 5 weeks 3 days ago [Body] UM cannot legally talk about this to the public due to privacy laws. Pipkins can say whatever he wants, and UM can only give PR appropriate 'he's still part of the team' reponses. Just the law man. We'll never know what really happened from both sides. [Title]

Input: [Date] 5 weeks 3 days ago [Body] Yeah, I don't get it. UM is coming into this season under the limit anyway right? And Pipkins is a senior so they don't need him to quit now to make room for the next class. Unless this all happened in the spring and they were still trying to get another transfer in? [Title]

Everyday I get asked when am I going to switch to cheering for a good conference and root for the SEC. They always bring up 7 in a row. I would gladly let them tell me everyday 8 in a row for the SEC and how bad is the B1G conference rather than let ND win. [Title]

Output: No Way!


Input: [Date] 2 years 52 weeks ago [Body] He has written close to 25 books in the series. He has broken up the large series into multiple trilogies. I really enjoyed some of the earlier trilogies: - Riftwar Saga (the begining of his whole series) - Krondor's Sons - Conclave of Shadows Unfortunately after the Conclave of Shadows the stories get really bad. So I strongly suggest some of his earlier books [Title]

Output: Raymond Feist - Riftwar Universe


Input: [Date] 3 years 6 weeks ago [Body] It is first to 6 games win by 2 unless it is 6-6 and then you go to a tie-breaker (first to 7 points win by 2). This is applicable for the first 4 sets. Then if it is the 5th set, it's win by 2 no matter what, so the 5th set can go on as long as needed. (and this is in contrast to the US Open which does play a tiebreaker in the 5th set to keep it short for TV) If I've confused you (it's all rather confusing) http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tennis_score [Title]

Output: This is very good advice.

Input: [Date] 5 years 26 weeks ago [Title] It hasnt taken too long for [Body]

Output: It hasnt taken too long for Kiffin's recruiting tactics to start popping up at USC. This is a match made in heaven. A school that is possibly on the verge of getting the hammer dropped on them, and without a doubt the most frequent violater of recruiting rules. All this just adds to Brian's point about the whole situation. If the NC DOUBLE ASSHOLES dont hit USC hard then there really arent any rules.

Output: Nike, I miss you.


Input: [Date] 5 years 34 weeks ago [Title] I think if RR gets 4 years he [Body]

Output: I think if RR gets 4 years he can get this thing up and running. But if he only gets next year to turn it around, then I think hes gone after next year. Think about it, this defense isn't gonna get that much better, plus all our tough games like ND, PSU, and OSU are all on the road next year. Where under RR we have only won 1 road game. If that is the case and RR gets canned after next year, Harbaugh makes the most sense. Despite what he has said about Michigan in the past he is a good coach. I would hope Miles isn't in the conversation.


Input: [Date] 5 years 34 weeks ago [Title] It kinda sucks because he [Body]

Output: It kinda sucks because he seems like a great guy, but the media forces you to hate him. They kiss his ass so much that I root for him to fail. Tom Brenneman last year in the NC game was the worst. "If you have the opportunity to spend 20 minutes with Tim Tebow, you're life is better for it"

Output: I wish Michigan had yell practice like A&M. UM fans need a lesson on getting loud.


Input: [Date] 5 years 35 weeks ago [Title] Lets see a coach in Ohio [Body]

Output: Lets see a coach in Ohio bashes Notre Dame, Michigan, West Virginia, and Pittsburgh. What are the similarities with those schools? I smell a Buckeye fan. People in Ohio already have a rivalry with the states of West Virginia and Pennsylvania. Then throw in the 2 other most recognizable programs in the Midwest. Look not much has gone right since RR was hired, but even tomhagan would have to admit that he can recruit. Two terrible seasons and he is still bringing in talent. And all we have read from recruits is how much they love the staff/family atmosphere. I'll base my opinion on RR's recruiting by the results, not by some anonymous high school coach with no credibility.


Input: [Date] 5 years 35 weeks ago [Title] Living in Dallas and getting [Body]

Output: Living in Dallas and getting to see him in high school, i've always pulled for him, even though i'm indifferent on the Lions. Steve Sabol said that was the best audio that NFL films has ever gotten, and theyve been in business since the mid 60's. Its hard to argue that. That was good stuff.


Input: [Date] 5 years 35 weeks ago [Title] In high school he plays [Body]

Output: In high school he plays OLB/Weakside end. I would assume he doesnt have too much experience covering people. That wouldnt be good. We need LBs who can play anyways and he seems like a good athlete. Also I would assume thats a fake fake 40 time. A guy that size who runs a 4.3? He would have to be a 5 star.

Input: [Date] 5 years 35 weeks ago [Title] The writing is on the [Body]

Output: The writing is on the wall....Even NBC's announcers who are the biggest homers in all of sport were talking like they knew it was Weis's last game. They were even saying things about needing to start talking to other coaches.


Input: [Date] 5 years 36 weeks ago [Title] Our biggest issue [Body]

Output: Our biggest issue is can our D stop Wisconsin at all. Tate can atleast put points on the board from time to time. Our chances of winning just got a little worse in my opinion. I hope he gets in there very soon.


Input: [Date] 5 years 37 weeks ago [Title] I said the recruiting hasnt [Body]

Output: I said the recruiting hasnt worked out YET. And i'm not saying I expect championship football. Is it too much to EXPECT the defense to hold their own?


Input: [Date] 5 years 37 weeks ago [Title] Thats just the way it is. I [Body]

Output: Thats just the way it is. I agree the defense is terrible. But RR shouldnt be exempt from criticism. He is the Chief Executive so to say of this football team. His recruiting, defensive philosophy, and the guys he has hired havent worked out yet. We all know he doesnt have much to work with on the defensive side, but you cant get rid of all the players, so the coach always takes the fall. Thats just how it goes.


Input: [Date] 5 years 37 weeks ago [Title] Ya and also what coach would [Body]

Output: Ya and also what coach would want to come here knowing not only do you have to win, but you have to be a Michigan man or the Freep and the old guard here at Michigan will try to bury you. I'm alot less sold on RR right now and how can you not be? But I agree our best bet is to ride this thing out. The offense has came around this year. But RR needs to fix the D or that could be his downfall.


Input: [Date] 5 years 37 weeks ago [Title] I would also add defensive [Body]

Output: I would also add defensive philosophy and recruiting. Using smaller defenders might work eventually but the recruiting strategy to load up on offensive players and the lack of talent on defense points to recruiting and developing.


Input: [Date] 5 years 37 weeks ago [Title] Yeah sadly i've lost all [Body]

Output: Yeah sadly i've lost all faith. We are in last place in the Big Ten and thats no fluke. We are the worst team without a doubt. I have been a RR supporter up until last weeks Illinois game. I still think he should get another year but like I said I have lost all faith. I dont see this going anywhere really. Next year we have all our tough games on the road where under RR we have won 1 road game in 2 years. 1-5 in the Big Ten and basically a 5 game losing streak with a possible 7 game losing streak to end the season? Sorry RR you just cant defend that. It seems like everyweek some milestone is acheieved by another team. Today Purdue wins at the Big House for the first time since the 60's.


Input: [Date] 5 years 38 weeks ago [Title] I saw a ridiculous stat in [Body]

Output: I saw a ridiculous stat in the Dallas Morning News that Tony Drake is averaging 10. something yards a carry. That was 2 weeks ago but i'm sure it hasnt changed much.


Input: [Date] 5 years 38 weeks ago [Title] A&M got beat by KState [Body]

Output: A&M got beat by KState something like 62-14. That was Leach's issue. Tech beat KState by 50, then KState beat A&M by 50, so he thought his players didnt take A&M seriously.


Input: [Date] 5 years 39 weeks ago [Title] Does anyone else know why he [Body]

Output: Does anyone else know why he isnt playing much defense in high school? I read something recently that said he has been playing tight end and hardly any defense.


Input: [Date] 5 years 39 weeks ago [Title] The worst one by far is the [Body]

Output: The worst one by far is the Gwen Stefani abortion of a song that goes, "woohoo yeehoo". They play that a few times then stop it expecting the crowd to follow through with a gay ass, "woohoo yeehoo" http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8tEROk-Y27Q


Input: [Date] 12 weeks 13 hours ago [Body] He is not "innocent" of the crime in the eyes of the law. He is not guilty. Those two concepts have very different meanings. [Title]

Output: No


Input: [Date] 24 weeks 2 days ago [Body] This board has turned into RCMB with an added, entirely underserved layer of moral superiority (the comments, not the OP). [Title]

Output: God


Input: [Date] 24 weeks 4 days ago [Body] But it's laughable to say we have some sort of moral high ground on this. All you need to do is scroll a few inches to the right to read the Mgoboard thread on this story to see a couple dozen comments (which have not been criticized) about how this is "karma" for Weber because he chose OSU and how people don't feel sorry for him in the least. As a group, we are pretty much exactly as petty and childish about kids who commit to other schools as are Bucknuts, 11W, and RCMB. And we're definitely worse than places like BHGP (read their thread on Higdon recommitting). [Title]

Output: I'm sorry


Input: [Date] 25 weeks 3 days ago [Body] Stars matter. A 5 star is more likely to be an all-conference player and a high draft pick than a 4 star, and a 4 star is more likely than a 3 star. There's a huge margin of error with any individual recruit, but on balance recruiting rankings are decent predictors of college performance. [Title]

Output: This has been analyzed repeatedly


Input: [Date] 31 weeks 3 days ago [Body] It's common consensus that Saban told him to find a new job so that Saban could bring in Kiffin. [Title]

Output: But Saban didn't want him


Input: [Date] 31 weeks 5 days ago [Body] He's a college reporter, and a really good one at that. Could he be wrong? Sure. But it's silly to lump every non-MIchigan reporter into one big "national writer" category and then dismiss every piece of info coming out of that category. [Title]

Output: Feldman isn't an NFL guy


Input: [Date] 33 weeks 2 days ago [Body] They're being told by people they trust who have knowledge of the situation that Harbaugh isn't interested in the Michigan job. Why is that so completely unfathomable? [Title]

Output: Or


Input: [Date] 33 weeks 2 days ago [Body] An awful lot of people here sound like Notre Dame fans did about Meyer and Gruden during ND's last search. Basically every non-Michigan source at this point has said that Harbaugh is not interested in the MIchigan job. Could they all be wrong? Sure. No one has a direct line into Harbaugh's head. But people are reacting like every legitimate source saying Harbaugh ain't coming needs to be burned at the stake and is making stuff up, while every random person who says Harbaugh is coming has ironclad evidence. It's...unseemly. [Title]

Output: Jesus


Input: [Date] 40 weeks 14 hours ago [Body] Perhaps an impertinent question, but are we just supposed to ignore the fact that Bielema has been, like, horrendously bad at Arkansas so far? I agree it was a stunning hire. It's far from obvious that it was a good one. The man is 0-12 in the SEC and Wisconsin fans seemed genuinely glad to see the back of him, even at the time. Given that a new AD is highly likely to be making an immediate coaching hire, this seems like something we should be keeping in mind. [Title]

Output: Long/Bielema


Input: [Date] 41 weeks 3 days ago [Body] You access it through your TV provider. Directv subscribers do not have access to ESPN3 online. It's, as far as I know, the only cable provider whose subscribers can't use ESPN3. [Title]

Output: No


Input: [Date] 41 weeks 3 days ago [Body] is that the Baylor game isn't actually on ESPN2 on Directv. It's on ESPN2 alternate, and nothing is showing on ESPN2. So they're just getting a black screen and a notice that the game has been blacekd out. [Title]

Output: The reason people are confused


Input: [Date] 42 weeks 9 hours ago [Body] I would prefer to have a team with a dynamic spread offense and a great defense, but it's very uncommon for a team to be dominant on both sides of the ball. Given a choice between a great offense and a mediocre defense, or a team with a great defense and a mediocre offense, I'd choose the great offense 11 times out of 10. Given a choice between a team with a great pro style offense and a good spread offense, I'd choose the spread offense because I find it to be more entertaining, and that's why I watch football. I find good defense boring, and would rather be a mediocre team from the Dread Pirate Leach days than crush all comers playing Alabama's style. I personally loved the 2010 Illinois game, and have never understood why people are so upset about it. [Title]

Output: In an ideal world


Input: [Date] 42 weeks 13 hours ago [Body] Nussmeier's stature at the time Michigan hired him as OC. Before Michigan hired him, I had never heard his name mentioned in connection with any major coaching job. Also, if you believe the scuttlebutt, it's not at all clear that Nussmeier could have waited a year at Alabama. [Title]

Output: People are really overrating


Input: [Date] 42 weeks 14 hours ago [Body] Though I admit a lot of that is aesthetic. I watch football to be entertained, and find teams that have hurry up spread offenses and mediocre defenses infinitely more entertaining that pro-style or defensively-based teams. [Title]

Output: Team Chad Morris


Input: [Date] 43 weeks 9 hours ago [Body] You're just mistakenly conflating the possibility of getting 16 points with two touchdowns with the likelihood of doing so. You're not in a "two score game" if 75% of the time two touchdowns and two 2 point conversion attempts won't get you 16 points. [Title]

Output: People are answering you rationally


Input: [Date] 43 weeks 9 hours ago [Body] 16 points is two scores and two 2 point conversions. We treat a 14 point game as "two scores" because the success rate on extra points is well above 95%, so you can safely assume that two scores will get you 14 points. Conversion rates on two point conversions are somewhere around 40-50%, so a successful two point conversion can't be assumed the way a successful extra point can. If you're down 8, half the time you're in a 1 score game (because you'll make the 2 point conversion) and half the time you're in a 2 score game (because you won't). The situation is obviously worse if you're down 16, because you need a 40-50% coin flip to come up heads twice. In other words, it's far more likely than not that you'll ultimately need 3 scores. In that situation, you want to find out as soon as humanly possible how many scores you actually will need by the end of the game, because any team down 3 scores needs to take drastic measures. [Title]

Output: No


Input: [Date] 43 weeks 10 hours ago [Body] Not going for two just gives you the illusion of being in a 2 score game. But 60% of the time (or whatever current conversion rates are), you're still in a 3 score game. You just don't know it yet. And not knowing keeps you from employing the optimal strategy to maximize your (very slim) chances of winning the game. [Title]

Output: You need the same amount of points regardless


Input: [Date] 44 weeks 13 hours ago [Body] I'm not saying he's not a good coach (I think it's too soon to tell), but can we really just ignore the fact that part of the reason he's at Michigan is that Saban didn't particularly want him anymore? [Title]

Output: I don't get this


Input: [Date] 44 weeks 13 hours ago [Body] Feel like Chad Morris's name at least needs to be in the mix as well. Hot-shot coordinators don't always work out (hello, Will Muschamp), but the list of quasi-realistic candidates from the established head coach pool is incredibly thin after Mullen. If Michigan would have gone after the biggest hotshot coordinator on the market 4 years ago (Malzahn), I doubt people would be complaining today. [Title]

Output: Coaching Options


Input: [Date] 44 weeks 1 day ago [Body] isn't entirely devoid of options, though Narduzzi almost certainly wouldn't take the Michigan job. Dan Mullen, Chad Morris, Kirby Smart (not my preferred style but would fit with what the program wants to be). [Title]

Output: The Coaching Pool


Input: [Date] 50 weeks 14 hours ago [Body] is not to maximize profits. I have no idea why our AD has such an incredibly difficult time understanding this. [Title]

Output: The goal of college athletics


Input: [Date] 1 year 6 weeks ago [Body] if I tell you it was actually Martin Tyler, not Ian Darke, who called that game and said the "howler" line? [Title]

Output: Will it break your heart


Input: [Date] 1 year 15 weeks ago [Body] used to write about the Pistons on this site pretty regularly during the Haloscan days. This long predates Trey Burke. [Title]

Output: Brian


Input: [Date] 1 year 17 weeks ago [Body] School. [Title]

Output: Basketball


Input: [Date] 1 year 18 weeks ago [Body] He might be too much of a tweener to be an NBA guy, but he'll be a handful for Robinson (assuming they put Morgan on Maymon). [Title]

Output: Stokes is a very, very good college player


Input: [Date] 1 year 18 weeks ago [Body] by 35 in Knoxville, and scored 87 points. Would guess that's doing a lot of the work. [Title]

Output: They Beat Virginia


Input: [Date] 1 year 23 weeks ago [Body] neat. [Title]

Output: Lagavulin


Input: [Date] 1 year 25 weeks ago [Body] Came back from 20 points down in the second half. Laval Lucas-Perry hit a late three that hit the front of the rim and somehow bounced up and in. If they don't win that game (against a very, very bad IU team), they probably don't make the tournament that year, and who knows where the program is right now. [Title]

Output: Beat Them in 2009


Input: [Date] 1 year 26 weeks ago [Body] is that teams generally don't take contested 3 pointers. If you have a hand in someone's face, he's not going to end up taking a 3. Thus, 3 point field goal percentage is mostly measuring how well teams shoot in situations where they had a good enough look to actually pull the trigger, and most of the variance in that is random chance. [Title]

Output: The argument


Input: [Date] 1 year 31 weeks ago [Body] Here's the rule: In any period, when the game clock displays 10ths of seconds and play is to be resumed by a throw-in or a free throw when 3/10 (.3) of a second or less remains on the game clock, a player may not gain possession of the ball and try for a field goal. Such player can only score a field goal by means of a tap of a pass or of a missed free throw. [Title]

Output: Doesn't matter if it took .3 or not


Input: [Date] 1 day 34 min ago [Body] The season cannot get here soon enough. I don't get why people get so worked up over uniforms. Lighten up, Francis. I actually kinda like the way these look anyway...not that it matters because THESE HAVE NOTHING TO DO WITH MICHIGAN. We all wanted NIke (well, most of us anyway), we get NIke, and now we complain about what Nike is doing even when they haven't started their contract with us yet. Wtf. [Title]

Output: Dear God


Input: [Date] 4 days 17 hours ago [Body] But he wouldn't have been fired after 3 years, that's for damn sure. [Title]

Output: Maybe not


Input: [Date] 4 days 22 hours ago [Body] Is the dark side of the Michigan fan base. To all the people saying RR should just get over it - look in the mirror, dude. [Title]

Output: This thread


Input: [Date] 5 days 23 hours ago [Body] That scientists, who are trained to account for every possible source of error, somehow ignored the very basic fact that measurements from the 1800s are not as accurate as they are today. Not only that, but they totally just arbitrarily round up whenever they feel like it. Because science. Right, yup, that makes sense too. [Title]

Output: And let's also assume


Input: [Date] 5 days 23 hours ago [Body] "Hey Brady, you've been totally wronged and cheated out of 4 games of salary, not to mention a permanently tarnished image, over something that you did absolutely nothing wrong whatsoever, and something you willingly cooperated in anyway only to have it come back and hit you in the face with the outrageouse claim that you didn't cooperate...but hey, just get over it, dude." [Title]

Output: Because that totes makes sense


Input: [Date] 5 days 23 hours ago [Body] Literally everytime I hear a so-called "expert" speak about deflate gate, how it ruins the integrity of the game and blah blah blah, I just want to vomit. Even the one local radio guy who I generally think is unbiased tried to argue this, THIS does more to damage the integrity of the game than a domestic abuse case. His argument was tampering with footballs directly affects a game, whereas domestic abuse does not (apparently). I literally yelled in my car after that. What the fuck kind of reasoning is that? I mean, we are talking about a slightly under inflated ball, right? My mantra though this has been " I feel like I'm taking crazy pills". I'm not a Brady homer or a Pats homer. But damn, it really takes some sort of twisted logic to think THIS supposed cheating (which cannot be definitively proven anyway) is somehow worse for football than players who beat their wives or children. I mean, what in the actual fuck? I'm just so damn sick of the ridiculous bloviating.on the most inconsequential rule you could possibly break. [Title]

Output: Yeah


Input: [Date] 1 week 3 days ago [Body] I kinda liked it too...brainless entertainment. So long as he didn't talk about Michigan in any way. [Title]

Output: Yeah it's weird


Input: [Date] 1 week 3 days ago [Body] It looks more like texas tech to me [Title]

Output: It looks more like texas tech to me


Input: [Date] 1 week 4 days ago [Body] The fact that people think he's guilty because they hate him. There's FAR more Brady haters than there are lovers out there. In Oklahoma sports radio they've adopted the "he definitely cheated cuz Wells says so!!!!" mantra, and they talk loudly about it every time Brady is mentioned. It makes me ill. [Title]

Output: And I hate


Input: [Date] 1 week 4 days ago [Body] The dichotomy between how careless they treated the measurement process and how paltry punishments (if any) were to similar previous offenses (so clearly it's at all important)...compared with the actual punishment given to Brady on this issue (so clearly it's the most important thing ever) [Title]

Output: Which again gets at


Input: [Date] 1 week 5 days ago [Body] A 250+ thread because a guy said he was "bummed"? My God, stop the presses! I must start tut-tutting and elevating my RAGE level! HOW DARE ANYONE BE BUMMED AT ANYTHING MICHIGAN-RELATED?!?!? ESPECIALLY HARBAUGH?!?!??!?!? GOOD RIDDANCE, I SAY!!!!! Harrrumph. [Title]

Output: Sweet Jeebus.


Input: [Date] 1 week 5 days ago [Body] But some people in this thread are getting might judgy and uppity about it. [Title]

Output: Maybe worked up isn't the right word.


Input: [Date] 1 week 6 days ago [Body] My idiocy when it comes to car discussions just shines through here. By "how fast a car can go in 60 seconds" I meant "how quickly a car can go 0-60 mph". Sweet Jeebus that was just painful to read. Sorry, everyone. [Title]

Output: Oh Lord


Input: [Date] 1 week 6 days ago [Body] But I've never understood the desire to fawn over cars and their specs and whatnot. Always felt odd around guys who do, and I had to make an awkward attempt to act like I care how fast that car can go in 60 seconds. As for a car I hate? I guess my opinion goes the other way too,,,there's not any car I really hate either. Except maybe gas-guzzling Hummers. What a waste of space. Oh! And any truck with truck nuts on it, or absurdly large wheels. Just feels like they're trying to compensate for something. [Title]

Output: Hate is a strong word


Input: [Date] 5 weeks 3 days ago [Body] There's literally nothing else to talk about right now in the world of sports. Well, unless you count baseball. Which I don't. [Title]

Output: Because it's the middle of summer


Input: [Date] 5 weeks 5 days ago [Body] ...a puppy dies. STOP KILLING PUPPIES. [Title]

Output: Everytime somebody misspells Lidstrom as Lindstrom...


Input: [Date] 6 weeks 5 days ago [Body] Or if you are even perceiving their workload fairly... But they are the exception. Not the rule. [Title]

Output: I don't know who those people are


Input: [Date] 6 weeks 5 days ago [Body] I'm just vehemently against the idea that the instructors/professors are the problem with the ballooning costs, or anywhere near the primary concern on lists of problems. [Title]

Output: Well, I agree that there are some really big issues


Input: [Date] 6 weeks 5 days ago [Body] This is a lump of steaming hot bullshit. I expect better from you, M-Dog. You aren't the one I would think would tear down an entire profession based on nothing but your own perception of it that is nowhere rooted in reality. [Title]

Output: Surely you can't be serious.


Input: [Date] 6 weeks 6 days ago [Body] If that happens, then the debate becomes real interesting. But personally, I don't see it happening. LA hasn't been good enough to finish better than 5th in their conference since 2008, and one of thier cups was as an 8 seed (which, don't get me wrong, is quite a historic accomplishment...but in the discussion of "dynasty", it matters)...you'd think a dynasty-level team would have better regular season stats than that I doubt it suddenly changes in the next two years, especially when they couldn't even make the freaking playoffs this year. [Title]

Output: Cross that birdge when we get there


Input: [Date] 6 weeks 6 days ago [Body] I didn't want Chicago to win for exactly this reason...the talk of dynasty. But now that it's here... Chicago very well may be the closest thing the NHL ever gets to a "dynasty" in the post-lockout parity era. It's amazing the run of playoff luck they seem to have when it comes to playoff overtimes. But luck aside, they were clearly playing at a level above every single opponent that came their way, and that difference really showed in games 5-7 of each series they played (if it got there). I've always admired them as a team...they seemed to build themselves around the Red Wings puck possession model that got them a cup in 2008 and nearly another in 2009. Shoot, they did it BETTER than Detroit ever did. It's hard for me to really "hate" them, even though my Detroit fandom practially demands it. Mostly because it's a hell of a lot better than seeing the Bostons and Anaheims of the league winning the cup. Having said all that...fuck man, their fans don't deserve that shit. Like, at all. [Title]

Output: Le sigh...


Input: [Date] 8 weeks 19 hours ago [Body] I had the exact opposite reaction. The first Hannibal episode was very underwhelming to me, and the GOT episode was excellent. [Title]

Output: Wut


Input: [Date] 8 weeks 4 days ago [Body] Way too many called strikes. Far too content to watch pitches early in the count. But even then, they had chances to get back in it. They just couldn't get the hits to bring the runners home...I recall at least 8 stranded runners. I think the umps weren't perfect, but they never are. Honestly, Michigan deserved the loss...they just did not look like themselves at all. [Title]

Output: Exactly what I saw


Input: [Date] 8 weeks 4 days ago [Body] At the game, in section 22 (left field) close to the foul line. It looked clearly foul from where I was sitting. Close, sure, but clearly foul. [Title]

Output: I was in a perfect position to see that


Input: [Date] 8 weeks 4 days ago [Body] I was at the game, and sitting out in left field. I am nowhere near a softball expert, but even I could tell that it seemed like there were quite an odd number of Florida players getting hit...and that they didn't seem too concerned about getting out of the way. Definitely a couple times I was like "wait...she got hit?" because the batter wouldn't move but all of the sudden take a base. I could tell from 250 feet away. I don't know the rules but common sense would seem to me that you should make SOME attempt to get out of the way... but instead it almost looked like they were purposefully getting their elbows in the way of pitches. [Title]

Output: INteresting


Input: [Date] 10 weeks 5 days ago [Body] You are a bit critical of 2008, but you didn't even mention one of the biggest parts of the cup run that was frustrating - game 5 of the SCF was an adventure that ended up in yet another one of those can't-close-it-out data points that became a pattern since then. Wings go down 2-0 in first period, so play from behind to close out the cup. But they battle back and score in the 2nd and twice in the third, steal ALL of the momentum, have ALL BUT WON the cup...and with 35 seconds left, Pittsburgh ties it up. Three overtimes later...3 OTs of being literally on the brink of winning everything with just one shot...but instead we're headed to game 6. Now, they DID close it out (thank god) in Pittsburgh after that crushing loss, but this is just another example of that annoying pattern that kept showing up on a yearly basis in the playoffs. That can't be all Babcock's fault of course, but maybe a new coach will bring a much needed breath of fresh air into what seemed like was a stale environment. Babcock was brilliant in the way he approached Tampa this year with an inferior roster...and yet, paradoxically, I wonder how much of the reason why Detroit collapsed in the series had to do with Babcock and this recurring pattern of "can't close out pivotal games at home" [Title]

Output: Great summation


Input: [Date] 11 weeks 12 min ago [Body] Flawless victory. I only hope Harbaugh can dominate as well on the field as he is apparently doing off the field. [Title]

Output: Damn


Input: [Date] 11 weeks 15 hours ago [Body] I can somewhat get why a coahc may not want their player to transfer in conference. "Oh yeah, sure kid! Transfer over to Ohio State! That sounds great!" But...this is not that situation. This is singling out exactly one school out of conference. It's totally out of spite. Way to take the high road, Gus... It's all about the student athletes. I'm sure. [Title]

Output: I mean


Input: [Date] 11 weeks 4 days ago [Body] Please let that be true. He's just awful. [Title]

Output: Oh yes


Input: [Date] 11 weeks 4 days ago [Body] Which is why I visit mgoblog often. Now, that percentage isn't 0 here, but it's significantly lower than 65% that's for sure. Everytime I hear a local sports guy (I live in Oklahoma,) talk about deflategate and how "THEY CHEATED" and all this stuff about how they deserve it and blah blah blah...I just...can't. I feel like I'm taking crazy pills. What is wrong with you people?!? [Title]

Output: Yup

Output: Literally just had this discussion last night randomly with a friend. We wondered why someone else didn't pick it up. Guessing the NFL pressured ESPN to not sell the rights, but that's just a guess.

Output: I dunno, I think the logo is oddly appropriate for Army football as of late: outdated style stabbing themselves in the head. Seems to work.


Input: [Date] 6 days 21 hours ago [Title] Also, what are they going to [Body]

Output: Also, what are they going to do with Woodson's #2? I thought the Legend's jersey kind of solved that, but I guess they're going to have to retire it at some point as well then.


Input: [Date] 6 days 22 hours ago [Title] Can't they just make a place [Body]

Output: Can't they just make a place for them in the stadium? Isn't there a bunch of blue space above where the windows end in the suites/press box and below the roof of said boxes?


Input: [Date] 6 days 22 hours ago [Title] Count me disappointed about [Body]

Output: Count me disappointed about this. I liked it, and I like that it was unique. If they're not going to be on the field, I hope they put up a ring of honor or something at least. This feels like another over-compensation to burn to the ground the Brandon/Hoke era, much like Brandon/Hoke did to the RR era. I would prefer a more nuanced approch, but whatever. Just win games.


Input: [Date] 1 week 5 days ago [Title] Ah yes. Perfect logic. One [Body]

Output: Ah yes. Perfect logic. One shit game is why a whole people can't get into a sport. I suppose you will never be able to get into football ever again because of the Rutgers game last year as well? Sent from MGoBlog HD for iPhone & iPad

Input: [Date] 2 weeks 5 days ago [Title] Microsoft just recently [Body]

Output: Microsoft just recently signed a contract with the department of defense for 3 years and $617 million dollar software deal. So Michigan has some catching up to do, and yes, I understand the difference between the military and amateur sports. This just provides a little perspective.

Output: I kind of see your point, but convincing someone to do something against their own interests using lies or misleading data is not usually OK. In fact, in most industries and professional fields, that's usually against the rules or laws. Sent from MGoBlog HD for iPhone & iPad


Input: [Date] 3 weeks 4 days ago [Title] I did the exact same thing [Body]

Output: I did the exact same thing and don't regret it a bit. But then again, I was probably addicted to my TV, so cutting the cable was good for me even beyond the savings.

Input: [Date] 5 weeks 3 days ago [Title] Agree. Honestly, I haven't [Body]

Output: Agree. Honestly, I haven't been that impressed with her so far. Or at least she hasn't lived up to expectations. DiCicco called it out on air; when she has her back to goal she turns the ball over. Germany will know that cold.


Input: [Date] 5 weeks 3 days ago [Title] That was a really tough [Body]

Output: That was a really tough physical game as well. Lots of fouls, and both teams looked gassed at the end. And the US gets Rapinoe and Holiday back. Should be a good game. Really hope the US can pull it out, but I still doubt they can win it.


Input: [Date] 5 weeks 3 days ago [Title] Shame it ended with only 1 [Body]

Output: Shame it ended with only 1 goal, but it definitely looked like the US' best game in the tourney so far. I think taking out the usual veterans, especially Wambach, really helped shake up the offensive flow.

Input: [Date] 5 weeks 3 days ago [Title] Being a sports fan with no [Body]

Output: Being a sports fan with no connection personally to the people on the team (and that's the vast majority of all of us) is an inherently irrational venture to begin with. I've just chose to fully embrace the irrationality. It makes things much less stressful. So, yeah, Harbaugh coaches at UM, which is the team I'm a fan of, so whatever he does is fine. As long as he wins.


Input: [Date] 5 weeks 3 days ago [Title] UM cannot legally talk about [Body]

Output: UM cannot legally talk about this to the public due to privacy laws. Pipkins can say whatever he wants, and UM can only give PR appropriate 'he's still part of the team' reponses. Just the law man. We'll never know what really happened from both sides.

Output: Yeah, I don't get it. UM is coming into this season under the limit anyway right? And Pipkins is a senior so they don't need him to quit now to make room for the next class. Unless this all happened in the spring and they were still trying to get another transfer in?

Output: I work in Mississippi now after graduating from Michigan. Everyday I get asked when am I going to switch to cheering for a good conference and root for the SEC. They always bring up 7 in a row. I would gladly let them tell me everyday 8 in a row for the SEC and how bad is the B1G conference rather than let ND win.

Output: He has written close to 25 books in the series. He has broken up the large series into multiple trilogies. I really enjoyed some of the earlier trilogies: - Riftwar Saga (the begining of his whole series) - Krondor's Sons - Conclave of Shadows Unfortunately after the Conclave of Shadows the stories get really bad. So I strongly suggest some of his earlier books


Input: [Date] 3 years 6 weeks ago [Title] It is first to 6 games win by [Body]

Output: It is first to 6 games win by 2 unless it is 6-6 and then you go to a tie-breaker (first to 7 points win by 2). This is applicable for the first 4 sets. Then if it is the 5th set, it's win by 2 no matter what, so the 5th set can go on as long as needed. (and this is in contrast to the US Open which does play a tiebreaker in the 5th set to keep it short for TV) If I've confused you (it's all rather confusing) http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tennis_score

Output: This is very good advice. There aren't any major highways going into State College. Trying to drive after the game is almost impossible. Also, there is no "open container" law, so if you don't have a beer in your hand, they will make fun of you.

I actually kinda like the way these look anyway...not that it matters because THESE HAVE NOTHING TO DO WITH MICHIGAN. We all wanted NIke (well, most of us anyway), we get NIke, and now we complain about what Nike is doing even when they haven't started their contract with us yet. Wtf.

Input: [Date] 5 days 23 hours ago [Title] And let's also assume [Body]

Output: That scientists, who are trained to account for every possible source of error, somehow ignored the very basic fact that measurements from the 1800s are not as accurate as they are today. Not only that, but they totally just arbitrarily round up whenever they feel like it. Because science. Right, yup, that makes sense too.


Input: [Date] 5 days 23 hours ago [Title] Because that totes makes sense [Body]

Output: "Hey Brady, you've been totally wronged and cheated out of 4 games of salary, not to mention a permanently tarnished image, over something that you did absolutely nothing wrong whatsoever, and something you willingly cooperated in anyway only to have it come back and hit you in the face with the outrageouse claim that you didn't cooperate...but hey, just get over it, dude."


Input: [Date] 5 days 23 hours ago [Title] Yeah [Body]

Output: Literally everytime I hear a so-called "expert" speak about deflate gate, how it ruins the integrity of the game and blah blah blah, I just want to vomit. Even the one local radio guy who I generally think is unbiased tried to argue this, THIS does more to damage the integrity of the game than a domestic abuse case. His argument was tampering with footballs directly affects a game, whereas domestic abuse does not (apparently). I literally yelled in my car after that. What the fuck kind of reasoning is that? I mean, we are talking about a slightly under inflated ball, right? My mantra though this has been " I feel like I'm taking crazy pills". I'm not a Brady homer or a Pats homer. But damn, it really takes some sort of twisted logic to think THIS supposed cheating (which cannot be definitively proven anyway) is somehow worse for football than players who beat their wives or children. I mean, what in the actual fuck? I'm just so damn sick of the ridiculous bloviating.on the most inconsequential rule you could possibly break.


Input: [Date] 1 week 3 days ago [Title] Yeah it's weird [Body]

Input: [Date] 1 week 4 days ago [Title] And I hate [Body]

Output: The fact that people think he's guilty because they hate him. There's FAR more Brady haters than there are lovers out there. In Oklahoma sports radio they've adopted the "he definitely cheated cuz Wells says so!!!!" mantra, and they talk loudly about it every time Brady is mentioned. It makes me ill.


Input: [Date] 1 week 4 days ago [Title] Which again gets at [Body]

Output: The dichotomy between how careless they treated the measurement process and how paltry punishments (if any) were to similar previous offenses (so clearly it's at all important)...compared with the actual punishment given to Brady on this issue (so clearly it's the most important thing ever)

Input: [Date] 1 week 6 days ago [Title] Oh Lord [Body]

Output: My idiocy when it comes to car discussions just shines through here. By "how fast a car can go in 60 seconds" I meant "how quickly a car can go 0-60 mph". Sweet Jeebus that was just painful to read. Sorry, everyone.


Input: [Date] 1 week 6 days ago [Title] Hate is a strong word [Body]

Output: But I've never understood the desire to fawn over cars and their specs and whatnot. Always felt odd around guys who do, and I had to make an awkward attempt to act like I care how fast that car can go in 60 seconds. As for a car I hate? I guess my opinion goes the other way too,,,there's not any car I really hate either. Except maybe gas-guzzling Hummers. What a waste of space. Oh! And any truck with truck nuts on it, or absurdly large wheels. Just feels like they're trying to compensate for something.


Input: [Date] 5 weeks 3 days ago [Title] Because it's the middle of summer [Body]

Output: Or if you are even perceiving their workload fairly... But they are the exception. Not the rule.


Input: [Date] 6 weeks 5 days ago [Title] Well, I agree that there are some really big issues [Body]

Output: I'm just vehemently against the idea that the instructors/professors are the problem with the ballooning costs, or anywhere near the primary concern on lists of problems.


Input: [Date] 6 weeks 5 days ago [Title] Surely you can't be serious. [Body]

Output: This is a lump of steaming hot bullshit. I expect better from you, M-Dog. You aren't the one I would think would tear down an entire profession based on nothing but your own perception of it that is nowhere rooted in reality.


Input: [Date] 6 weeks 6 days ago [Title] Cross that birdge when we get there [Body]

Output: If that happens, then the debate becomes real interesting. But personally, I don't see it happening. LA hasn't been good enough to finish better than 5th in their conference since 2008, and one of thier cups was as an 8 seed (which, don't get me wrong, is quite a historic accomplishment...but in the discussion of "dynasty", it matters)...you'd think a dynasty-level team would have better regular season stats than that I doubt it suddenly changes in the next two years, especially when they couldn't even make the freaking playoffs this year.


Input: [Date] 6 weeks 6 days ago [Title] Le sigh... [Body]

Output: I didn't want Chicago to win for exactly this reason...the talk of dynasty. But now that it's here... Chicago very well may be the closest thing the NHL ever gets to a "dynasty" in the post-lockout parity era. It's amazing the run of playoff luck they seem to have when it comes to playoff overtimes. But luck aside, they were clearly playing at a level above every single opponent that came their way, and that difference really showed in games 5-7 of each series they played (if it got there). I've always admired them as a team...they seemed to build themselves around the Red Wings puck possession model that got them a cup in 2008 and nearly another in 2009. Shoot, they did it BETTER than Detroit ever did. It's hard for me to really "hate" them, even though my Detroit fandom practially demands it. Mostly because it's a hell of a lot better than seeing the Bostons and Anaheims of the league winning the cup. Having said all that...fuck man, their fans don't deserve that shit. Like, at all.

Output: I had the exact opposite reaction. The first Hannibal episode was very underwhelming to me, and the GOT episode was excellent.


Input: [Date] 8 weeks 4 days ago [Title] Exactly what I saw [Body]

Output: Way too many called strikes. Far too content to watch pitches early in the count. But even then, they had chances to get back in it. They just couldn't get the hits to bring the runners home...I recall at least 8 stranded runners. I think the umps weren't perfect, but they never are. Honestly, Michigan deserved the loss...they just did not look like themselves at all.


Input: [Date] 8 weeks 4 days ago [Title] I was in a perfect position to see that [Body]

Output: At the game, in section 22 (left field) close to the foul line. It looked clearly foul from where I was sitting. Close, sure, but clearly foul.


Input: [Date] 8 weeks 4 days ago [Title] INteresting [Body]

Output: I was at the game, and sitting out in left field. I am nowhere near a softball expert, but even I could tell that it seemed like there were quite an odd number of Florida players getting hit...and that they didn't seem too concerned about getting out of the way. Definitely a couple times I was like "wait...she got hit?" because the batter wouldn't move but all of the sudden take a base. I could tell from 250 feet away. I don't know the rules but common sense would seem to me that you should make SOME attempt to get out of the way... but instead it almost looked like they were purposefully getting their elbows in the way of pitches.


Input: [Date] 10 weeks 5 days ago [Title] Great summation [Body]

Output: You are a bit critical of 2008, but you didn't even mention one of the biggest parts of the cup run that was frustrating - game 5 of the SCF was an adventure that ended up in yet another one of those can't-close-it-out data points that became a pattern since then. Wings go down 2-0 in first period, so play from behind to close out the cup. But they battle back and score in the 2nd and twice in the third, steal ALL of the momentum, have ALL BUT WON the cup...and with 35 seconds left, Pittsburgh ties it up. Three overtimes later...3 OTs of being literally on the brink of winning everything with just one shot...but instead we're headed to game 6. Now, they DID close it out (thank god) in Pittsburgh after that crushing loss, but this is just another example of that annoying pattern that kept showing up on a yearly basis in the playoffs. That can't be all Babcock's fault of course, but maybe a new coach will bring a much needed breath of fresh air into what seemed like was a stale environment. Babcock was brilliant in the way he approached Tampa this year with an inferior roster...and yet, paradoxically, I wonder how much of the reason why Detroit collapsed in the series had to do with Babcock and this recurring pattern of "can't close out pivotal games at home"


Input: [Date] 11 weeks 12 min ago [Title] Damn [Body]

Input: [Date] 11 weeks 15 hours ago [Title] I mean [Body]

Output: I can somewhat get why a coahc may not want their player to transfer in conference. "Oh yeah, sure kid! Transfer over to Ohio State! That sounds great!" But...this is not that situation. This is singling out exactly one school out of conference. It's totally out of spite. Way to take the high road, Gus... It's all about the student athletes. I'm sure.


Input: [Date] 11 weeks 4 days ago [Title] Oh yes [Body]

Output: Please let that be true. He's just awful.


Input: [Date] 11 weeks 4 days ago [Title] Yup [Body]

Output: Which is why I visit mgoblog often. Now, that percentage isn't 0 here, but it's significantly lower than 65% that's for sure. Everytime I hear a local sports guy (I live in Oklahoma,) talk about deflategate and how "THEY CHEATED" and all this stuff about how they deserve it and blah blah blah...I just...can't. I feel like I'm taking crazy pills. What is wrong with you people?!?

I know he played exceptionally there last season considering he was a true freshman and undersized, but if Newsome or LTT really come on next year, the best line may have Cole on the interior with more tackle sized players outside.

Output: Is Cole for sure staying at


Input: [Date] 1 week 2 days ago [Body] My reading of the situation is the kid went and tried to hide it. He didn't tell the coaches he was going and told reporters not to let the info out. Similar to Pharaoh Brown visiting Oregon a few years ago without telling Hoke. I see nothing wrong with pulling a scholarship because of that, the commitment is a 2 way street. [Title]

Output: My reading of the situation


Input: [Date] 2 weeks 3 days ago [Body] Not sure why he couldn't stay on to graduate from Michigan then do the 5th year transfer without sitting out. Get the Michigan degree and another year of football if he thinks he's healthy enough. [Title]

Input: [Date] 2 weeks 5 days ago [Body] I think it's an 11 year deal with a 4 year option Michigan can exercise if they like. I've seen the 4 year option in a couple places and it seems that's the only way the 169 number makes sense when it's about 10 million per year. [Title]

Input: [Date] 3 weeks 4 days ago [Body] For anyone who wants to make the best burger you've ever had at home, I suggest trying out a sous vide burger. Great guide on how to make it here and you don't need any special equipment to make it. Just a cooler, a zip lock bag, a thermometer and a really hot surface to sear it on(like a cast iron pan). You get a burger cooked all the way through exactly the temp you want it, a nice charred outside, and it's easy to make a lot the same temp without over cooking or constantly watching the grill.

Input: [Date] 4 weeks 2 days ago [Body] The rule that doesn't exist? It isn't actually a rule, similar to the idea of not ending a sentence with a preposition. http://www.quickanddirtytips.com/education/grammar/can-i-start-a-sentenc... http://grammarist.com/grammar/conjunctions-to-start-sentences/ The would of, could of, should of crap is really annoying, completely incorrect, and immediately makes me think of the writer as uneducated. [Title]

Output: The rule that doesn't exist?


Input: [Date] 4 weeks 2 days ago [Body] After the word "would", using "of" makes no sense. And what I don't get about Cook being projected as a 1st round pick is the fact that he has a 58% completion percentage, which definitely won't cut it in the NFL. I don't see how he's NFL starter material, at least not for a few years which would make him at 2nd or 3rd round pick up. [Title]

Output: After the word "would", using


Input: [Date] 4 weeks 2 days ago [Body] Not saying it will happen, but Harbaugh has shown a willingness to switch QBs midseason and if he feels they provide an equal chance to win this year, he could switch Ruddock for Gentry or Morris. [Title]

Input: [Date] 4 weeks 2 days ago [Body] I'm hoping the biggest improvement is the OL for Rudock. Iowa's OL was not good, if Drevno can get them to be above average the YPA should go up without any improvement from Rudock. [Title]

Output: I'm hoping the biggest


Input: [Date] 4 weeks 2 days ago [Body] I don't think it will be losing, but just look at SF where Smith was doing fine and he gets replaced by Kaepernick after going down with an injury for a game. Not saying it's going to happen, just that I wouldn't be surprised if someone overtakes Rudock during the season and starts. Unlikely for MSU, but the next few games would be a great time to get a new QB good experience. Ruddock can't be the future since he's only got a year, so if someone else is equal to him, it makes more sense to start them. [Title]

Output: I don't think it will be


Input: [Date] 4 weeks 2 days ago [Body] The OL at Iowa was bad, similar to 2013 Michigan with 2 NFL players and others not very good at all. Which makes it all the more impressive. [Title]

Output: Could definitely see him


Input: [Date] 4 weeks 2 days ago [Body] The drop in INTs from 13 to 5 is a really nice improvement. He won't be a QB picking apart defenses and winning games on his own, but he should take care of the ball, and be as good as the OL and running game allows him to be. My biggest concern on offense is the WRs without any real threats. [Title]

Output: The drop in INTs from 13 to 5


Input: [Date] 4 weeks 3 days ago [Body] The Xavier Kelly recruitment seems wierd. The three schools with crystal balls, Nebraska, MSU, and Oklahoma were all left off his top 8. Then since he released that list every pick has been Alabama.

Input: [Date] 5 weeks 1 day ago [Body] Because the 247 composite rankings basically do all that, so it's repetetive. The major feature was averaging out all the sites to find a composite ranking instead of having to look at rivals, espn, scout, and 247.

Or they are coaching at the HS level. They are lucky to be making 75k at that point. It's not until they reach the position coach at a power 5 school level that they break into 6 figures. [Title]

Hope this was just a case of the first time running a QB camp like this and being disorganized with so many guest QBs. [Title]

Output: Sad to hear that, goes


Input: [Date] 6 weeks 2 days ago [Body] What? Most recruits are rated by practice anyway. A lot of recruiting rankings are based on camp performances which are glorified practices, sometimes with little bearing on actual football games. Yes, some players are better in practice than games but there is nothing to indicate that the the current commits have a higher proportion of those types than any other class. [Title]

Input: [Date] 6 weeks 3 days ago [Body] I don't think they are conceding the state to OSU/MSU, but realize they are way behind with the kids there are don't think they have a good shot for 2016. Meyer was similarly much more nationally focused when he came in the first year and then got a lot more from Ohio the year after that. When you don't have the relationships the other local schools do you need to broaden your base because you will have a lower hit rate overall no matter where you recruit. [Title]

Output: I don't think they are


Input: [Date] 6 weeks 3 days ago [Body] It's all about relationships, MSU and ND have been recruiting Ohio for years and this Michigan staff has very little history there. Takes time to get going as recruitig has gotten earlier and earlier. [Title]

Output: It's all about relationships,


Input: [Date] 6 weeks 3 days ago [Body] And MSU has been recruiting Ohio for years and have longstanding relationships with these kids. Not to mention they go after the under the radar recruits that Harbaugh has been targeting so far. When you need to scramble to build relationships, time is better spent elsewhere for now. I'm sure they will do better there in coming years but their local focus is clearly aimed more at 2017 and future classes than 2016. [Title]

Output: And MSU has been recruiting


Input: [Date] 6 weeks 3 days ago [Body] Something not brought up much but its a high possibility is that a handful of these early commits won't stick. Some may jump up in ranking/have good senior seasons/perform well at local university camps and get noticed by major schools near them. If you grew up in Alabama and Auburn or Alabama come calling, it may be hard to turn them down. I wouldn't be surprised to see Michigan lose 3-5 of these guys by the signing day. [Title]

Output: Something not brought up much


Input: [Date] 6 weeks 3 days ago [Body] They aren't giving up on Ohio, but Meyer has that state on lockdown right now. They are the dominant team in the state, just won a national championship, and have an ace recruiting staff. Additionally, Meyer has shown a passion for playing games with recruiting and seemingly going after kids just because rivals want them. Any commit from the state of Ohio is liable to be given a late offer by OSU if they miss out on someone else and likely flip. Ohio recruits will come in time, but it will take time to build relationships and get in on them early, something this staff doesn't have the luxury of in 2015. [Title]

Output: They aren't giving up on


Input: [Date] 6 weeks 3 days ago [Body] Part of it is Michigan is very far behind the in state recruits and has needed to reach down a bit for players who don't have established relationships with local coaches. Easier to do that when you have a much wider base to recruit from. Look at Meyer's 2013 class of Ohio recruits (4 of the top 10) vs his 2014 class (6 of the top 10 including all 5 of the top 5). It takes some time to build relationships in new areas and Michigan is behind both MSU and OSU with these kids and they are better programs now. You can already see a lot more local kids with Michigan as their leader in 2016 where the staff is closer to starting at the same time as the other local programs. The satelite camps were a way to kick start Michigan's recruiting, find kids still early in the recruiting process, and build in roads for the future. But there should definitely be more local kids in future classes once the staff is established. [Title]

Output: Part of it is Michigan is


Input: [Date] 6 weeks 4 days ago [Body] Sure Harbaugh uses TEs well, but ND does have a pretty damn good track record of very productive college TEs who go to the NFL. [Title]

Output: Sure Harbaugh uses TEs well,


Input: [Date] 6 weeks 4 days ago [Body] These kids may also have grown or developed more since their junior seasons. Kids grow a lot in HS, and it happens at different rates for different kids. These kids potentially look/play differently from their most recent HS tape which was 8 months ago. [Title]

Output: These kids may also have


Input: [Date] 6 weeks 4 days ago [Body] I can never begrudge a player taking an offer like Stanford or Harvard over Michigan. We claim to think education is important, can't reverse that when they choose an even more highly regarded educational institution. [Title]

Output: I can never begrudge a player


Input: [Date] 6 weeks 4 days ago [Body] When has a team ever landed everyone they lead for? There are always recruits who change their minds or get squeezed out. And your thought that we would ever turn away Gary if he wanted to commit shows how stupid you and your crusade against the staffs recruiting is. [Title]

Output: When has a team ever landed


Input: [Date] 6 weeks 4 days ago [Body] Any idea what's up with Donald Stewart? Seems to be trending away from Michigan after a Stanford offer. [Title]

Output: Any idea what's up with


Input: [Date] 6 weeks 4 days ago [Body] Does Brady have grounds for a multimillion dollar lawsuit against Goodell and the NFL? This whole thing has definitely damaged his reputation and hurt future earnings from endorsement deals. Not that he needs the money, but he could pledge to donate all of it to charity. Maybe a huge endowment for science education? [Title]

Output: Does Brady have grounds for a

Output: IBIBD?


Input: [Date] 6 weeks 5 days ago [Body] My bad, there are so many Ms in the recent predictions, I thought there were more. Though in regards to Michigan recruits, Lorenz is one I trust more than others. [Title]

Output: My bad, there are so many Ms


Input: [Date] 6 weeks 5 days ago [Body] Lots of crystal balls came in for Bush over the last hour. [Title]

Output: Lots of crystal balls came in


Input: [Date] 6 weeks 5 days ago [Body] Lorenz said that he dropped from 29th to 31st within a few minutes of announcing his commitment. May have been because 247 reworked their OL rankings a bit today and it just updated. [Title]

Output: Lorenz said that he dropped


Input: [Date] 6 weeks 6 days ago [Body] There are 3-4 known transfers that haven't happened yet, plus an additional handful of RS juniors who may not be asked back for a 5th year. On top of that there are always additional transfers when a new coach comes in as people find themselves way down on the depth chart and sometimes passed by younger players. Also, not oversigning until they are actually signed, and if some of the commits blow up they may get interest from schools closer to home that they have always wanted to attend. [Title]

Output: There are 3-4 known transfers


Input: [Date] 6 weeks 6 days ago [Body] Very interesting to see and much more apt comparisons than using Meyer's start at OSU, a school that dominates it's state and had had a single bad season in the last decade. [Title]

Output: Very interesting to see and


Input: [Date] 6 weeks 6 days ago [Body] The only negative I've heard regarding DeWeaver is his ceiling isn't super high but he's pretty good now. Peters has more potential but is less polished currently. So it's a high floor/low ceiling vs a low floor/high ceiling. Will definitely be interesting to see but with so much uncertainty in QB development they may never play each other. [Title]

Output: The only negative I've heard


Input: [Date] 7 weeks 2 days ago [Body] I don't know how that bodes for him committing to Michigan 1 class behind Peters then. If he transfered because he didn't beat him out as a younger player I doubt he'd want to be 1 class behind him again. [Title]

Output: I don't know how that bodes


Input: [Date] 7 weeks 3 days ago [Body] oops [Title]

Output: double post


Input: [Date] 7 weeks 3 days ago [Body] I can totally see Harbaugh realizing that Dantonio's whole schtick is being the disrespected underdog and intentionally giving him tons of praise and absolutely nothing to take offense to just to rob him of that. Meanwhile doing his poke the bear routine with OSU. [Title]

Output: I can totally see Harbaugh


Input: [Date] 7 weeks 4 days ago [Body] I know more good players is always better, and a top 10 player would be great, but what does he add to the 2015-2016 team? With Walton at PG, Levert at SG and Spike backing them up in what is a pretty complex offense, how much would Murray add? Just seems like a great player at the wrong position for this team. [Title]

Output: I know more good players is


Input: [Date] 7 weeks 4 days ago [Body] Yea, everyone was a bit worried about the national focus of this class and the deemphasis on Michigan/Ohio, but it looks like it will work out and connections are being built with 2017 and 2018 recruits to keep the trend up. [Title]

Output: Yea, everyone was a bit


Input: [Date] 7 weeks 5 days ago [Body] How many overpriced food trends can they pack into one product? Those bags are $5 a 100g serving because they waste money on things like grass fed beef which has no nutritional benefits and the taste difference is covered up by all the seasonings. [Title]

Output: How many overpriced food


Input: [Date] 7 weeks 5 days ago [Body] Would be really nice to get Jones out of Cali, looks like he's done great at camps this summer and is a fantastic athlete. [Title]

Input: [Date] 7 weeks 6 days ago [Body] Amazing letter by a college student that does a very good job of unintentionally making Seinfeld's point for him. http://www.huffingtonpost.com/anthony-berteaux/jerry-seinfeld-politcally... [Title]

Output: Amazing letter by a college


Input: [Date] 7 weeks 6 days ago [Body] I've been thinking the same. After all the hype and news from Alabama, Florida, Illinois and Pennsylvania, there has been almost nothing from Texas. Maybe there haven't been as many journalists there or once it's out of SEC country and the novelty has worn off it's not as big news. [Title]

Output: I've been thinking the same.


Input: [Date] 7 weeks 6 days ago [Body] The new auto play videos on 247 are really annoying. Nice to include highlight tapes on recruit pages but fuck auto play. [Title]

Output: The new auto play videos on

Output: I can't tell if this is real


Input: [Date] 8 weeks 18 hours ago [Body] Another factor not mentioned in the replies above is the growth from when first rankings come out to final rankings, sometimes it's over 2 season of football which as anyone knows from seeing a college sophomore and then the same player as a senior can be a big difference. [Title]

Output: Another factor not mentioned
