Output: He was at Arizona before that. A pretty big red flag goes off to me when someone has transferred twice.


Input: [Date] 10 weeks 2 days ago [Title] Your taking isolated [Body]

Output: Your taking isolated incidents and trying to only use those to create a narrative you have already predetermined in your head. Frank gore publically was raving about him and talking about how he was family. Luck was also saying how great he is and how fortunate it was that he got the opportunity to be coached by him.

I continued to read on and slowly started to realize that she maybe wasn't writing a satire at all, but instead actually believed what she was writing.

If you had said the same for chatman I would have never believed you. With that said, I'm not writing chatman off yet like a lot of fans.I think he still can improve and be a damn good basketball player for us.

Output: These recruits seem a lot more honest this year. I feel that in the past if one of these players weren't offered by MSU or Michigan they would give some bullshit reason about why they didn't like the school and that is the reason why they weren't going there, when in reality they never got offered and never were going to get offered.

Input: [Date] 2 years 24 weeks ago [Title] I think the rest is the major plus [Body]

Output: With 3 games in the next 2 weeks that will give the team time to rest their legs, regroup and get some quality practice time in AA. Hopefully the games vs PSU are blow outs so the starters can get some rest and the freshman non starters & sophomores can get some extended quality minutes. Also I think this will give J Morgan time to further heal giving M the ability to use both he & McGary at the same time vs IU & MSU and that will in turn keep GR3 & Stauskas minutes down a bit to not wear them back out

Output: Why bother fighting with full facemasks and gloves on? Complete waste of time. Take off the mits and buckets or don't even bother...


Input: [Date] 1 year 43 weeks ago [Title] Thanks [Body]

Output: It makes a lot more sense seeing the receivers and defensive backfield. The reason I had difficulty understanding is because I was thinking "well if you have 2 corners covering 2 receivers, plus 2 safeties, who has the edge?" The assumption that I made incorrectly is that they would have a corner on each receiver (if the slot receiver at the top was at the bottom of the screen, they'd have to do this). Great point on the bubble screen issue, because we're allowing them to keep 9 guys near the box to stuff the run. If they have to walk their WILL out to the slot or have their boundary corner come across the formation to cover the slot, then we gain a numbers advantage in the box. If they walk the WILL out, that's one less block to make on the play you drew up. If they walk the boundary corner over, they have to adjust on the strong side of the line to have another force guy, and if they walk the safety that's over our slot receiver up, then we can go over the top on them. THROW THE BUBBLE! As far as the precise alignment of the players in the diagram, I personally think it looks like the SDE is head up on Williams, which makes that an easier block on the tackle trap/power play. It looks like the tackles are in a 1-tech on the weak side and 3-tech on the strong side, which would lead me to believe that the SDE would be head up or outside shade of Williams (looks head up). Tough to tell for sure though from the camera angle.


Input: [Date] 1 year 43 weeks ago [Title] Suggestion [Body]

Output: I'm just a young football coach in Canada that's just starting out, so I don't claim to know everything about schemes or anything. So my suggestions here might not even be useful. However, I don't think that's how the opposing defenses would really be lining up against some of the offenses that you showed us (Michigan) running. For example, in the tackle trap play, who would be the force player to the strong side? Would it be a safety (not shown in the diagram)? If not, we would just run stretches or tosses all day against that alignment. We have two players aligned outside of their furthest edge player. They'd be absolutely killed if we tried to attack the edge just based on alignment alone. I could understand that there could be a safety there, so I'm just looking for clarification because it's difficult to understand without the proper context. The other reason I could see them being aligned like this in the picture is just because it's difficult to be precise when using programs to draw up plays like this. The reason I think it is important to note and possibly correct something like this is because it changes the blocks that would have to be made. For example, if the strongside end is outside of Williams to have some sort of edge control, Williams no longer has to make a difficult reach block, which drastically changes what your expectations on how well the play could work out for us. Again, I appreciate the work you put in, I'm just looking for clarification. Thanks.

Input: [Date] 2 years 8 weeks ago [Title] Runner at third [Body]

Output: Why was the runner called safe at third? The announcer said obstruction I believe. If you compare that play to the last out of the game last night between Nebraska and Florida, I don't understand how this one was obstruction and that one was not.


Input: [Date] 2 years 8 weeks ago [Title] Yes [Body]

Output: Bottom 4, 0-0, 2 outs. Romero grounded out to third (looked like she beat the throw), and Blanchard flew out to center


Input: [Date] 2 years 8 weeks ago [Title] Pitchers [Body]

Output: I admittedly know nothing about softball, but have tuned in to try to watch the game tonight. The one girl has thrown over 150 pitches. Is this a usual occurrence? I'm pretty sure I saw earlier that the same pitcher will pitch twice in the same day in tourneys like this. Is it just not hard on your arm? Is there some type of limit or pitch count where a pitcher would be unable to be as successful once throwing a certain amount of pitches? It seems like having one great pitcher that is unhittable could win a shitty team a whole lot of games if nobody else ever has to pitch...

Input: [Date] 2 years 18 weeks ago [Title] Playoffs [Body]

Output: Have you watched the NHL playoffs before? When's the last time the top team in each conference met in the finals? The playoffs are a brand new season. Pittsburgh and Chicago are absolutely stacked, but all it takes is a goalie to get hot, a couple players to get injured, etc and suddenly things look a lot different.

Input: [Date] 2 years 18 weeks ago [Title] Tickets tomorrow [Body]

Output: I had a great time today at the game. It didn't seem to be anywhere close to sold out. If I show up before the game and go to the box office, there should be tickets available right? Or should I just order some online?

Output: That's just disgusting.


Input: [Date] 2 years 20 weeks ago [Title] Not sure it would work [Body]

Output: This sounds like a good idea, but I'm not sure it would work in practice. If the coach is going to decline the foul, they'll just have to inbound the ball again, and get fouled again over and over until the defensive team finally denied the inbound play and got the ball back. I supposed it could work though when a team is in a one and one situation. They could just decline until they are in double bonus. If you're going to do that though, you might as well just get rid of the one and one rule altogether.


Input: [Date] 2 years 24 weeks ago [Title] Bars near the Joe [Body]

Output: Sorry for thread jacking a little bit. I don't have enough points to create my own thread, and this is somewhat on topic for this thread I guess. I just picked up tickets for free to the Wings game at 2:00. I'm from Windsor, so I want to head over early, watch the Michigan game at a bar, then head to the Joe for the Wings game. Any suggestions on where I should go to watch the game? Any place within walking distance of the Joe would be great. Doesn't even have to be a great bar, I probably won't drink anyways. Just need somewhere to go to watch.

Input: [Date] 3 years 34 weeks ago [Title] Couple quick questions [Body]

Output: I was just wondering, if Ok St passes Alabama, would Alabama still get the auto bid because they are top 4? Or can you only have 3 teams from the same conference when 2 our in the MNC and neither won the conference? Also, is it possible for Va Tech to pass Stanford? That would get rid of the problem of Stanford getting an auto bid. Or is Stanford so far ahead of Va Tech that it wouldn't be realistic?

Output: Where was the ball when he stepped out of bounds at the 32? If the ball was at the 33 when he stepped out of bounds at the 32, the ball should be spotted at the 33 right?


Input: [Date] 4 years 4 weeks ago [Title] I'm not sure why Denard is [Body]

Output: I'm not sure why Denard is outside the top ten, but in terms of pure speed, he definitely isn't the fastest in the NCAA. Denard ran 10.56 in the 100m in high school, which is blazing fast. However, Demps has run a sub 10 second 100m which is world class. Denard's PB in the 60m is 6.81, while Demps' is 6.53. That's a huge difference in the 60m. The difference is Denard has ridiculous agility. His lateral quickness is insane. That's why his agility and acceleration are both 99 in the game. It's actually pretty accurate of how he really plays.

Input: [Date] 4 years 9 weeks ago [Title] I don't think so [Body]

Output: IMO, the Champions League is mainly useful for comparing teams from different countries. The EPL is 38 games long, so I think that shows who the best team is in England. So, if what you say happened, I'd say Man City is the top club in England. A 1 game elimination (or even home and away aggregate) doesn't show who the best team is necessarily. It's all a matter of opinion though. I'm sure a lot of people would disagree and think the Champions League is the end all be all. This year, it doesn't matter anyways because Barcelona is clearly the best club in the world.

By the way, I know that this is weird for me to look this up, I don't really care. I'm bored and had time to kill. I used to play AAA hockey during draft year as well, so I somewhat understand the crazy things that happen. I wasn't on the draft list myself or anything, so I didn't personally have the same experience, but a couple of my teammates went on to be really good players at the next level. There were always a lot of scouts in the stands and as a goalie, I found it really tough to stay calm and focused. There really is a lot of pressure on kids to perform.

Input: [Date] 6 days 11 hours ago [Body] I just moved away from GR. Here are my favorites that I've been to in Grand Rapids, along with some notes: 1. Founders: World class beer and a really cool atmosphere as well. There's always some interesting stuff on tap that you can't find in the bottles. Good sandwiches. 2. Hopcat: They brew a few of their own beers which are pretty solid. With Hopcat, however, you go for their vast tap list and the expertise of the employees in being able to match you up with flavors you will like. At one point, this was rated the second or third best beer bar in the world. Solid food at moderate prices. 3. Brewery Vivant: Belgian brewery with excellent beer (if you're into Belgian stuff) and good, but more expensive, food. The venue is in what appears to be a renovated church. Really cool atmosphere. 4. Hideout Brewing: The venue isn't much to look at unless it's a nice day, in which you can enjoy their porch. Hideout usually has 20+ beers and meads on tap and a lot of it is exotic. Very creative stuff, but no food. 5. The Mitten: They usually only have 5-6 beers on tap, but the beers are good. Excellent pizza and a really cool atmosphere in a renovated old firehouse. 6. GR Brewing: Probably the weakest beer on the list IMO, but pretty good food and a great atmosphere. It's right by Hopcat, the BOB, and Founders if you want to do a little brewery crawl. 7. The BOB brewing (bottom floor): Sporadic beer quality, but not the best atmosphere. A bit too clubby in the evening for my tastes. Maybe catch a comedy show or something and check out the beer. The peanut butter porter is killer, but probably isn't on tap this time of year. 8. Harmony: I went when they first opened and was underwhelmed. Pretty good pizza, and I've heard the beer has improved substantially. 9. Elk Brewing: I was not there for long, but the beer seemed decent. My memory of this place is not the best. NOTES: I have never been to Perrin (somehow), but their beer is probably second only to Founders for me. I've also never been to New Holland, which puts out some outstanding stuff these days. If you like sours, you should try their Incorrigible. Oddside has been good from what I've tasted, but I've also never been there. Arcadia is also within an hour from GR and they put out some excellent beer. The restaurant is also cool and has killer wood-oven pizza. Pick up a case of Whitsun and see how you think it compares to Oberon. I think it's better. You should be able to get at least one kind of Shorts on tap at most beer bars that aren't dedicated breweries. [Title]

Output: I just moved away from GR.

Input: [Date] 2 weeks 2 days ago [Body] I thought Green was starting to put it together when he got injured last year. Regarding Deveon, I love how tough he is, but he's just so slow. I feel like he would have a lot of trouble with big, physical teams that tackle well. Regarding, Isaac, I know very little about him other than the fact that he had a good average in garbage time at USC. With all of this said, I think Johnson's knee is the biggest factor for us at this position. He was by far the best back on the team last year. [Title]

Output: MSU had one of the best offenses in the country


Input: [Date] 4 weeks 2 days ago [Body] IMO the idea of a silent commit is kinda pointless. It's someone who is committed, but not enough that they want everyone to know it because they want to visit other schools. The commitment means nothing WRT signing on the dotted line. What's the point? [Title]

Output: IMO the idea of a silent


Input: [Date] 6 weeks 22 hours ago [Body] I thought Green looked like he was on his way to his best performance of the year when he broke his collarbone. He was finding holes and breaking tackles that day IIRC. [Title]

Output: I thought Green looked like

Output: Scout is always slow to update. (This is a hint)


Input: [Date] 3 years 41 weeks ago [Title] He did mention that he wants to try to get to UM [Body]

Output: As Sam Webb always says, you never know what will happen if you get a recruit on campus. However, I do agree that no one should be holding their breath.


Input: [Date] 4 years 25 weeks ago [Title] You forgot QB [Body]

Output: I'm sure he could be better than Armpunt Pryor.


Input: [Date] 4 years 26 weeks ago [Title] Awesome Interview [Body]

Output: As you mentioned, you have to love his confidence. In addition, you have to love his emphasis on physical, and the mention or the 2011 recruiting class as a whole and their emphasis on physical play. I really think Hoke is making a great effort to bring in tough, physical kids as opposed to Rodriguez's emphasis on speed and quickness.


Input: [Date] 4 years 32 weeks ago [Title] Justic Hayes Tweet - More commits [Body]

Output: Since I don't have enough points to start my own thead, I thought I would post this here. Justic Hayes tweeted the following: We bout to pick up some more commits. :) Feel free to repost this in its own thread if you want.


Input: [Date] 4 years 33 weeks ago [Title] Frost at Shrine Bowl [Body]

Output: Chad Simmons had a few comments/tweets about Frosts performance at the Shrine Bowl: -Kris Frost flew in off the edge and made contact with the RB 3 yds deep in the backfield. -Kris Frost and Stephone Anthony are two of the top LBs in the south. http://plixi.com/p/62928751 -Kris Frost is telling his teammates to pick the intensity. What a leader. Seems like a type of kid Michigan could use regardless of position. Though its nice to see him playing defense here.


Input: [Date] 4 years 44 weeks ago [Title] Karlos Williams [Body]

Output: Williams has stated in the past that he is keeping an eye on UM, and how they do this season. With our success this year, I think he will end up taking a visit.


Input: [Date] 4 years 45 weeks ago [Title] Hasn't Dee said similar things about UM before [Body]

Output: If I recall correctly, I believe that Dee has said he almost committed to Michigan several times in the past. Why should we look at his comments about Auburn any differently. The kid is 18 and probably just enjoying the process. I have no idea where he will end up, but I think we quickly forget that he has done this before.


Input: [Date] 4 years 46 weeks ago [Title] Link to depth chart [Body]

Output: http://michigan.rivals.com/content.asp?CID=1125677 On this depth chart (updated by Rivals on 9/13) Lewan is not listed at RT at all, and is 2nd string behind Huyge. Also, Vlad is not on here at all, neither is Lalota Tate and Devin are both listed as 2nd string (Devin or Tate)

Input: [Date] 4 years 51 weeks ago [Title] Courtney Avery [Body]

Output: I have been hearing good things. He may have been underrated coming out of high school because he played QB.


Input: [Date] 5 years 1 week ago [Title] Agree on Robinson [Body]

Output: Couldn't agree more with Jerald Robinson. His speed will get him on the field. My choice for defense is Courtney Avery. With our depth at corner, it is very likely a freshmen will play, and from what I hear Avery has been looking good thus far in summer workouts.


Input: [Date] 5 years 7 weeks ago [Title] Agree [Body]

Output: I think we should be looking at players who would not be starters for USC in their remaining year or two at USC, but could likely get some playing time at UM. I figure if you are currently a starter at SC, no reason to transfer, but if you are 2nd team or worse, why wouldn't you transfer.


Input: [Date] 5 years 20 weeks ago [Title] Good Offers [Body]

Output: Seems like he has several quality offers, especially being this early in the recruiting cycle. I especially like the offers from Duke and Stanford (for academic reasons).


Input: [Date] 5 years 22 weeks ago [Title] Couldn't Agree More [Body]

Output: How can you be a student or an athlete when you are getting in trouble. I understand a coach cannot control everything their players do, but its odd that UM is getting punished for having too much control in some sense, while MSU sees no punishment for their very obvious lack of control.


Input: [Date] 5 years 27 weeks ago [Title] A few things to keep in mind [Body]

Output: In my opinion players should be weighted on how much they contribute and how many years they have been in school. A senior 5-star recruit should be expected to produce much more than a freshmen 5-star. I also would not use class rankings for your analysis. They do not take injuries, transfers or non-qualifiers in to account. They also count players twice who went to prep school (Slocum in counted in '05 and '06). I'm sure there are many more issues such as these that will arise, but these are two things I have always noticed.


Input: [Date] 5 years 31 weeks ago [Title] Sounds as though he will open up recruitment [Body]

Output: "I've been talking to schools just in case something like this happened because you never know what is going to happen. I've been staying in contact with LSU, Cincinnati, Louisville, Florida, Miami and West Virginia," Boone said. "All I can do is take this in, get home or talk to my parents, get their reaction and go from there. The only thing I can do is sit back, talk to the Tech coaches and talk to my parents." http://sports.espn.go.com/ncaa/recruiting/football/news/story?id=4782712

Input: [Date] 6 years 1 week ago [Title] UM has a chance [Body]

Output: I am correct in assuming this


Input: [Date] 6 weeks 5 days ago [Body] The main flaw is that you are taking final rankings and comparing them to rankings that are about a year away from being final. There are huge changes in rankings during the summer going into players senior year and the fall of their senior year. This is because a lot of players get evauluated during the summer (which is exactly what has happened with these 2 *'s.) It will not surprise me if a lot of these .85 and lower players are actually quite a bit higher come the final rankings. [Title]

Output: The main flaw is that you are


Input: [Date] 7 weeks 3 days ago [Body] That is not true. The guys harbaugh is offering are still plan a type guys and he obviously really wants them. However as the year progresses you need to move on to plan b and c when your plan a guys dont commit. These guys the coaches like, but aren't necessarily exactly what they want. So they dont always really want them, but they have to fill needs. [Title]

Output: That is not true. The guys

Input: [Date] 23 weeks 5 days ago [Body] Yeah the difference between chatman and Dawkins/MAAR is pretty ridiculous. If you had told me dawkins or MAAR was a top 30 recruit I really wouldn't have questioned you. If you had said the same for chatman I would have never believed you. With that said, I'm not writing chatman off yet like a lot of fans.I think he still can improve and be a damn good basketball player for us. [Title]

Input: [Date] 25 weeks 6 days ago [Body] These recruits seem a lot more honest this year. I feel that in the past if one of these players weren't offered by MSU or Michigan they would give some bullshit reason about why they didn't like the school and that is the reason why they weren't going there, when in reality they never got offered and never were going to get offered. [Title]

Output: These recruits seem a lot

Output: Ohio State at 5:2 odds is a far worse bet.


Input: [Date] 1 week 3 days ago [Title] This is incorrect [Body]

Output: Deals for NBA players do not have to be guaranteed. Most in practice are, but some have partial guarantees, or are unguaranteed until a specific date, etc. Media reports often call these non-guaranteed seasons team options, but that is technically incorrect in NBA contract parlance. For example, Brandon Haywood has a $10.5 million contract this season with Cleveland, but it's completely unguaranteed as long as he's been waived by August 1st. Media reports might call this an option, but it's not, as NBA options have to be exercised by late June, and players cannot be traded if they only have an option year left on their contract. Accordingly, it's disadvantageous for teams to give out team options, except in rare circumstances, over non-guaranteed contracts. So almost every time you hear of a team option, it's probably a non-guaranteed year.


Input: [Date] 1 week 3 days ago [Title] He's doing fine [Body]

Output: He didn't really bet on himself last year. The Wolves could offer him no more than two years at the minimum due to salary cap rules. It's not clear what they chose to offer him, but they signed him to the one-year minimum tender after trading for Wiggins, so it's possible that the Wolves didn't want to commit to more, since their situation changed between draft night and when they signed GR3. Most second-rounders in his range signed for 3-4 years at the minimum, with 1-2 years guaranteed, so he's pretty much in the same place as everyone else. Just took a different route to get there.


Input: [Date] 1 week 3 days ago [Title] I do expect it will be the minimum [Body]

Output: It's actually a very common contract for players with 0-2 years experience, to sign for 3-4 years at that level, so that players will not be restricted free agents when they come off the deal. His agent will be judged on what the guarantee level is on it. Getting two years guaranteed for him would be good work. I've been looking around trying to find out the amount of guarantee.. Haven't found it yet.


Input: [Date] 1 week 3 days ago [Title] That would be wrong [Body]

Output: In addition to all the posts about American income levels, GR3 will make far more over the three years of this contract. Here are the minimum salaries he can make each year, per the NBA CBA. Year 1: $845,059 Year 2: $980,431 Year 3: $1,051,245 That totals to $2,876,735 over 3 years, or nearly double what you imagine. And again, that's the minimum over three years.


Input: [Date] 6 weeks 5 days ago [Title] What boggles me is the short game [Body]

Output: People talk about his swing coach and all, but its the short game that's really left him. He used to be able to take aggressive approaches to holes, and when things went wrong, the wedge and putter could bail him out. Now even if he hits a great first two shots, you know the best he's getting is par.

Input: [Date] 7 weeks 2 days ago [Title] Grbac made a Pro Bowl [Body]

Output: Granted, it was when most of the attendees were in diapers, but still, that's the top accomplishment of all the QBs in attendance. I'm sure he'll wear his Super Bowl ring too.


Input: [Date] 10 weeks 6 days ago [Title] Just wondering how he'll qualify for Michigan [Body]

Output: He went to a CC for two years due to grades issues in high school. I mean, I wish him all the best, but I've heard for years on this board that someone like Moncrief can't get past admissions/transfer courses counting. Have I been misled all this time?


Input: [Date] 11 weeks 23 hours ago [Title] Not Ace [Body]

Output: Mexico City was mentioned by Brian in Unverified Voracity, not Ace in recruiting (unless I missed that somewhere and it was in both).


Input: [Date] 11 weeks 4 days ago [Title] Maybe spring practices changed his mind? [Body]

Output: Not saying that Morrison is the mystery transfer -- just that a quote from January and a transder now are not mutually exclusive. It would say bad things about how spring practice went for Florida, but who knows.


Input: [Date] 11 weeks 5 days ago [Title] Was he? [Body]

Output: I think his post got edited, because now it says 6-foot point guards, but when I started replying I swear it just said "guards". Maybe I misread (bad on me for posting at work). Regardless, Tyus Jones measures 6' 0.25" at the combine yesterday, and Winston is still a junior in high school with time to add an inch or two (or six even). Heck, Russell only measured 6' 3.25". He's not some giant. Again, all I said is that I wouldn't expect Winston to commit any time soon, not that I don't expect him to commit. Calm down, everyone.


Input: [Date] 11 weeks 5 days ago [Title] 2 years [Body]

Output: My post does say "2 years at most", so I allow for that. However, two of the top 4 projected players this year are likely to be guards who are freshmen (or would have been had they been NCAA eligible in the case of Mudaiy). Tyus Jones should be the third or fourth PG picked in the first round, and is also a freshman. If you're one of the top 3 PG in your high school class, 1-and-done is still reasonable. And regardless, even if you need to prove yourself for 2 years in college as a guard, it's still better to start than sit behind a senior for year 1. What do you think Duke sold Derryck Thornton on? "Come start for two years here and enter the NBA draft in 2017. It'll be better than starting one year somewhere else."


Input: [Date] 11 weeks 5 days ago [Title] Kentucky is having trouble recruiting this year [Body]

Output: Specifically related to my playing time argument. They're still getting some big recruits, but they're missing out on ones that they'd often get, and Calipari is making a big deal that his platoon system this year won't happen again. As long as the one-and-done rule is still viable, most top 3 players at their position (which is what Winston is) won't want to go t o a place where they might get 10-15 minutes per game as a freshman. And if Walton returns for his senior year, that's about all that would likely be available. But if Walton makes the jump, that would be the third starting PG in a row that Beilein has gotten to the NBA, and Winston should very much consider Michigan to become the next PG in that trend.


Input: [Date] 11 weeks 6 days ago [Title] Depends how long you want to stay buckled [Body]

Output: I don't think it's impossible he winds up at Michigan, but I'd be pretty surprised if that decision were imminent. Early playing time is so important to 5-star recruits, as they are planning to stay only 2 years at most (whether that happens or not is different, but that's the general plan). If Winston were to commit to Michigan before next April, I think it would only be if Walton were to look like someone heading to the NBA after next season. Of course, I do have those expectations for Walton, and thus expectations for Winston, but I'd be surprised if Winston signed on before February.


Input: [Date] 11 weeks 6 days ago [Title] Go away [Body]

Output: Please just go back under your bridge in Columbus, East Lansing, Bolivia, or wherever it is.


Input: [Date] 14 weeks 16 hours ago [Title] The refs weren't calling anything on rebounds the entire series [Body]

Output: I lost count of the number of pushes in the back delivered by Tristan Thompson and arm-bars from Mosgov. The entire series was played with the refs letting almost everything go on rebounds. Was it a foul? Yes. But taken in context of the previous 12.5 quarters of basketball, it was far from egregious. It was too much contact that led to an awkward injury, with Love pulling one way as Olynyk falls the opposite direction, and gravity did its work. It just as easily could have been Olynyk who got hurt on that play or a number of others in the series. What I'm most surprised about is that Perkins walked away without an ejection or suspension. He checks into the game and immediately puts two hands to the face of Jae Crowder on a blind screen. Refs should have tossed Perkins then, and that probably stops it right there before Smith went MMA on Crowder (who was fouling Smith at the time) in the second half. Or they shouldn't have suspended ejected anyone. If you want a really physical series, which again, they let happen, then you need to deal with the consequences, which are scrums and injuries.


Input: [Date] 14 weeks 1 day ago [Title] Top recruits under Beilein [Body]

Output: Rankings can be pretty site specific, but according to Rivals, GR3 was our top recruit at #11 overall. Irvin and Chatman, at 24 and 25, were both rated above McGary at 30 in the final rankings. McGary fell a bit as his senior year wore on. Brown, of course, would exceed all of them. But we've had a top-25 recruit three years in a row. Just no top-5 kids.


Input: [Date] 14 weeks 1 day ago [Title] Brown [Body]

Output: We were so close to a championship for a couple of years before this year's dip. Adding Brown to our returning team can take us right back there in a hurry. And for all you football fans, an electric Crisler crowd is a nice recruiting tool during the football offseason -- Brown would definitely make it electric. And, on the off-chance he stays for two years -- whoa, Nellie!


Input: [Date] 14 weeks 4 days ago [Title] Router? I hardly even know her [Body]

Output: A neighbor of mine a few years ago had that. Made me chuckle every time I connected to a network.


Input: [Date] 14 weeks 6 days ago [Title] For someone like Brown [Body]

Output: He really has until the first day of classes as long as a scholarship is available at a school he wants to attend. He's one of the top 2-3 players in the country. Deadlines don't really apply when you're that good. He doesn't need to sign a letter of intent if he doesn't want. That said, if he chooses to sign an NLI, he has until May 20th.


Input: [Date] 14 weeks 6 days ago [Title] Future plans [Body]

Output: Spectrum isn't that plentiful, and Google can't possibly get enough spectrum in the next auction to start a competitive network from scratch. I do agree that this lets them dip their toes into the water, but if they take the plunge, I see them buying either T-Mobile, Sprint, or DISH. T-Mobile is the most likely, because they are actively trying to sell, and are partnering with Google in this. Sprint also is rumored to be wiling to sell if the price is right, although are less actively seeking bids, and are also working with Google's test. DISH has hoards of spectrum that's presently unused, although they can't sell much of it without incurring a large penalty owed to the FCC.


Input: [Date] 15 weeks 18 hours ago [Title] 100% co-sign [Body]

Output: I'm not the most active commenter, but this has become a site I corne to less because of some commenters. It used to be multiple times per day site for me. Now I take weeks-long breaks.


Input: [Date] 15 weeks 23 hours ago [Title] I don't think that is remotely clear-cut [Body]

Output: Who's to say what would have happened to Morris? The 2012 draft class was much deeper than 2011. Who's to say his game doesn't stagnate a bit and he goes undrafted? Morris has made $2.5 million in the NBA since he left, while living out his dream playing in the NBA. Heck, he was even drafted by and played two years for his childhood favorite team. The decision absolutely worked for him. People need to let it go and realize he's having a career as an NBA player, and it's unlikely that an additional year of college would have elevated his game such that he'd get more minutes than he currently does. His talent level is that of a reserve, which is still extraordinarily talented. And he's getting paid for his talents. The confidence on this board with which people think they know what's best for a player, ignoring the fact that said player has made $2.5 million since his decision, is somewhere between idiotic and ridiculously conceited. He's four years into an NBA career, and is on a playoff team for the third time. He's not an NBA washout. The NBA salary cap is very friendly to veterans who make the minimum salary. Service time is a real big deal, particularly getting to year 3, and leaving early earned him an important extra year. You compare him to Marcus Taylor, who had all of one season in the NBA. Apples to oranges.


Input: [Date] 15 weeks 1 day ago [Title] If he does go pro [Body]

Output: I hope that we as a blog/fan base can be supportive of him instead of being derisive. It's embarrassing the amount of hate D-Mo gets on this board.


Input: [Date] 15 weeks 1 day ago [Title] I think he's gone [Body]

Output: I'm probably going to get negged for my pessimism, but a couple other potential first-rounders have announced they're staying, and I think that will clear enough spots ahead of him to get drafted in the first. I hope I'm wrong, but that plus the recruitment of the VCU kid just makes it feel that's what's happening. That said, I hedged my bets by posting on the NBA boards I frequent that I think he's staying. I'll be wrong one place or the other, so I hope the egg is on my face here.


Input: [Date] 15 weeks 1 day ago [Title] You're in a DOCSIS 3.0 market [Body]

Output: Congrats! Comcast keeps telling me I need to upgrade my modem (as in, please rent from us) for better service, but they don't have 3.0 yet where I live, and I get my advertised speeds much of the time. They just stink.


Input: [Date] 15 weeks 1 day ago [Title] Bundling [Body]

Output: Just to clarify -- bundling as a telecom industry terms is used to describe offering different types of service (cable/phone/internet) to consumers under one contract. It is not typically used to describe the packaging of different stations together in cable tiers. And with that point, for many Americans, it is certainily bundling which causes prices to rise, as providers use monopoly power in one of their lines of service to subsidize another. For example, where I live Comcast is the only high-speed internet provider. 70% of my $110 monthly bill goes to pay for my 20/3 service (which rarely hits 20/3, and has outages about once per month.) My cable costs are a whopping $33, despite my very large selection of stations. I'm very sure that Comcast pays the various cable stations more on a per subscriber basis than I pay them monthly, but they can gouge me in the monopoly market of internet to keep me, and at the same time keep me from going to a satellite option for cable, because it's not cost effective. In other areas of the country (and I actually keep track of telecom prices as part of my job), this ratio is reversed, if Comcast/Verizon/whomever has more monopoly power in another service type (cable instead of internet, for example). Cross-product subsidization is a gold mine for companies. Accordingly, this pricing strategy probably shifts money from Disney to Verizon, and not at all to consumers. On a related note, look at your cable bill and see if you have a new fee for "Regional Sports Networks." It's a fee that a lot of companies have started to add to existing accounts over the last year.


Input: [Date] 15 weeks 5 days ago [Title] Yeah, I mean Beilein wouldn't try something different [Body]

Output: No way he'd do anything but the same way all the time because "it's hist system." I'm going to trust that Beilein knows a bit more than you do -- whether it be that he'll need another big due to attrition, that Davis is about to get offers from top programs and was getting him first, or in fact just thinks he'll be a good player for Michigan regardless of what Tom Izzo thinks. He's clearly done a great job of identifying and developing talent. There's really little to question given his track record.


Input: [Date] 15 weeks 5 days ago [Title] Close [Body]

Output: But actually Doyle is going to elevate his game, lead us to a championship, and bolt for the NBA. Beilein sophomore bump!


Input: [Date] 4 weeks 5 days ago [Body] Anthony Davis is trending towards becoming the most dominant big man in NBA history, and we will be blessed if 'Dre tops out as a Dwight Howard doppleganger. So we probably won't have to worry about Drummond making $30 million a year anytime soon, unless he makes some shrewd moves in the stock market. He's a smart kid - I wouldn't put that past him. [Title]

Output: Well


Input: [Date] 4 weeks 6 days ago [Body] the decision to choose Weiss over Flip cost the Wings another Cup, you haven't been paying attention to the Red Wings the past couple of seasons. We have been squarely planted in the NHLs middle-class since our last Cup appearence. Players like Weiss or Flip do nothing to change that. Luckily for the Red Wings, we have seen our farm system emerge into one of the leagues elite and have managed to stay afloat despite some decisions that didn't work out. And it is that farm system that will give us another chance at the Cup, not re-signing a guy who refuses to shoot the puck. EDIT: No arguments about Hossa v. Franzen. I think the front office got caught up in their dates of birth and Franzen's magical Cup run and made a terrible mistake. [Title]

Output: If you think


Input: [Date] 7 weeks 6 days ago [Body] Outside of Babcock and a few other coaches, Blashill is as good a hire you can make for any team in any situation. He's a true coaching stud, and someone the Red Wings have been keen to lock up. If Babcock didnt move on, Blashill would be coaching another NHL team right now. He's had enormous success in Grand Rapids, and he has a very high level of familiarity with much of this team. Combine that with our Top 5 farm system, and I'm super excited about the future of the Wings. [Title]

Output: Outside of Babcock


Input: [Date] 10 weeks 1 hour ago [Body] Interesting that you'd rank Athanasiou over Mantha. I'd like to think it's more of a compliment to AA's progress and less a slight to Mantha. Mantha is still a tremendous prospect - but our farm system is just that good right now. A potential line of Helm-Larkin-Athansiou makes me feel weird in my pants. [Title]

Output: Interesting.


Input: [Date] 25 weeks 1 day ago [Body] who have the audacity to denounce the post-Signing Day actions of these kids: Shame on you. Seriously, shame on you. I'd like to believe that perhaps you're just bitter that these kids did not commit to Michigan, but it's also entirely possible you are sociopaths who really enjoy insulting 17 year old children. Do you remember yourself at 17? Do you remember how impressionable you were? Did you ever admire or look up to a teacher or other adult figure at that age? How would you feel if that person got up and left the next day? It's an incredibly difficult episode for any kid to deal with. Roquan's coach is absolutely right. There's little that separates Michigan, Alabama and their ilk in terms of facilities, prestige, etc. Relationships matter very, very much. If you're too thick headed to understand that, then stop posting here. There's a lot of recruits that visit these sorts of web sites, and I'd rather they not see you as a representation of the University of Michigan fanbase. Grow up. [Title]

Output: Those of you


Input: [Date] 1 year 20 weeks ago [Body] of really, really good football players? [Title]

Output: You're not a fan


Input: [Date] 1 year 20 weeks ago [Body] of how good this signing is for Detroit. I know it's our immediate inclination to poop on anything the Lions do, but signing Golden Tate was an excellent move - and could prove to be a huge steal for just 31 million. -As someone above mentioned, his drop rate is the best amongst WRs since 2011. -In 2013, he led all qualified receivers in Yards After Catch per reception -In 2013, he also led all WRs in Missed Tackles forced. He avoided 21. Calvin, by comparison, avoided 13. This is an excellent signing no matter how you slice it. Him and Calvin is a scary, scary duo. Of course, this will all be moot when Jim Caldwell farts all over him. [Title]

Output: Not enough is being made


Input: [Date] 1 year 48 weeks ago [Body] I'll pass it along to him, bro. [Title]

Output: Strong take


Input: [Date] 1 year 51 weeks ago [Body] after going through 2.1 innings against the Tigs: :( [Title]

Output: Zach McAllister's sentiments


Input: [Date] 2 years 6 weeks ago [Body] are really creepy. [Title]

Output: You


Input: [Date] 2 years 7 weeks ago [Body] The player renderings in the game look exactly the same as previous iterations. The ratings are dumbfounding as usual. And the lemmings will continue to dish out $60 for this rubbish. Good job; Good effort, guys. Go play a real EA game like FIFA instead. This franchise checked out a long, long time ago. (PS: I too am a huge fan of the 06 NCAA soundtrack. Good call.) [Title]

Output: Let's see


Input: [Date] 2 years 8 weeks ago [Body] And really, if we haven't been so logjammed with second-tier wingers, he would have been up by now. Hell, he might have been up 2 years ago on some of the crappier teams in the NHL. He's a damn good prospect. [Title]

Output: You are correct, sir


Input: [Date] 2 years 8 weeks ago [Body] Nyquist and Anderson were both eligible. And it was indeed a ridiculous talent boost. They were losing that series before they got there. [Title]

Output: Yes


Input: [Date] 2 years 8 weeks ago [Body] Nyquist and Anderson are shoo-in full timers in Detroit next year. Tatar should be as well. Guys like Sheahan and Ferraro (boy has he turned it around) have outside shots. Calle Jarnkrok, who had a 9 game stint with the Griffins not too long ago, has been hailed as the best Swede import since Zetterberg - and indeed he has broken a lot of his SEL rookie records. He could make the big club straight out of camp next year, though he'll most likely stick with the Griffins. And I believe Martin Frk will join the Griffins next year as well. The Vowel-less Wonder just finished up a Memorial Cup run averaging 2 PPG(!!!) in which his team basically raped and pillaged the entire junior hockey world. I think they went 77-8-5 or something crazy like that. [Title]

Output: Yep


Input: [Date] 2 years 8 weeks ago [Body] Detroit's prospect pool has become pretty deep the past few years, and a lot of these guys in GR may very well be in Red Wings uniforms next year. Take notice of the job our scouting has done, guys. With no early picks, we've managed to put together a farm system that's ranked near the top of the league. Seriously. Here's a juicy tidbit for ya: 4 different defenseman prospects in the Wings system won their leagues respect Defenseman of the Year trophys - and one of them, Ryan Sproul, was the OHL Defenseman of the Year. Take a look at the past winners of that trophy. That is a definitively Big Deal. So for all of us who are clamoring for more help - be patient. The future is looking very, very bright for Detroit. This so-called rebuilding phase is about to be usurped by another era of outstanding homegrown talent. [Title]

Output: People should pay attention to the Grifs


Input: [Date] 2 years 27 weeks ago [Body] Eden Hazard is a tremendous little bitch, and has been for years now. He fits right in at Chelsea. [Title]

Output: My take:


Input: [Date] 2 years 27 weeks ago [Body] 300+ teams 1 champion Shit happens. [Title]

Output: Why B1G hasn't won a title in over a decade:


Input: [Date] 2 years 36 weeks ago [Body] Ah, nothing like the sweet smell of seeping douche in the afternoon. Went this far? You're a disgruntled fan complaining about playcalling after a loss on an internet message board. Taking a step outside right now without a t-shirt is more courageous. Bravo. [Title]

Output: "Yes I went this far.."


Input: [Date] 2 years 37 weeks ago [Body] upset you, is just so damn disappointing. And embarrassing, quite frankly. Step away from the computer, breathe the fresh air outside, and let the 18-22 year olds celebrate however the fuck they want. [Title]

Output: The fact that you let stuff like this


Input: [Date] 3 years 1 week ago [Body] You took the minor point I made and drove it off a cliff, but alright? [Title]

Output: Er


Input: [Date] 3 years 1 week ago [Body] You don't say! A little brevity is important here. profootballfocus, which examines and grades players on a per-play basis, had Berry ranked as one of the few CBs in the league with a positive coverage rating. Regardless of what you may think, the evidence shows he is - at the very least - NOT a bad cornerback. The Lions are in desperate need of guys in the secondary who don't suck. As it stands, they've got two average guys(Houston, Delmas) and a whole lot of To Be Determined's. [Title]

Output: Wasn't so hot against Rodgers and Brees?


Input: [Date] 3 years 1 week ago [Body] Personal conduct aside, this a huge hit for the Lions' secondary. Berry was far better than most will give him credit for here - he was Detroit's best CB on a per-play basis, and looked to possess some Pro Bowl potential with a full season of starting under his belt. One of those mid-round picks really needs to pan out. And soon. [Title]

Output: Big blow for the Lions


Input: [Date] 3 years 1 week ago [Body] This dude has it: I'm done. THROUGH with Penn State. Our leaders have failed us. The Freeh report was all conjecture, and there is damn near nothing to tie Joe Paterno or the athletic department in with this entire mess. Yet, our leaders accepted it without even bothering to READ it first. And they’re going to blindly accept these NCAA sanctions. And they continue to let Joe Paterno be the main scapegoat here. What is going on? Its one thing for the media to rush to judgement, but our own leaders? This DOES smell like a cover-up, but not one by Paterno. No, this is a TRUE cover-up by the Board of Trustees. They are more than willing to make this a “football scandal” so nobody digs deeper into the REAL scandal. This is not a failure of a football culture, this is a POLITICAL scandal. Where is the investigation into the relationship between the Board of Trustees, Harrisburg and The Second Mile? MILLIONS in campaign donations and state grants were exchanged between the Second Mile, politicians and key Board members – THAT is the scandal and THAT is what the Board doesn’t want to come out. And THAT is why they allow the football team to be the scapegoat. The Board of Trustees has something to hide. And I will NOT be a part of my alma mater again until they are all removed from those positions. [Title]

Output: Delusion.


Input: [Date] 3 years 1 week ago [Title]

Output: Satellite view of State College


Input: [Date] 3 years 1 week ago [Body] But I do see us near the top of that list and I will overreact accordingly. [Title]

Output: It may not be in no particular order


Input: [Date] 3 years 2 weeks ago [Body] I'll focus on EAs much better FIFA and NHL franchises yet again, I suppose. I've been dying to get back into football for years, but EA continues to shit out absolute dogshit with their NCAA and Madden lineups. [Title]

Output: So the game still sucks, basically


Input: [Date] 3 years 2 weeks ago [Body] Let's give this man his due, he is the only reason IU has been relevant in football in years. [Title]

Output: Randle-el


Input: [Date] 3 years 3 weeks ago [Body] ...You are, quite literally, a terrible human being. [Title]

Output: If you didn't like BASEketball


Input: [Date] 3 years 4 weeks ago [Body] I sure hope they're not after Dempsey, and it appears they're not - thankfully. He's a great player, sure, but Arsenal needs to have bigger aspirations and signing a 29 year old forward/mid tweener without great pace isn't a need. He doesn't really fit in their 4-3-3. I do hope Deuce plays CL football somewhere, though. [Title]

Output: As a Gunners fan


Input: [Date] 3 years 4 weeks ago [Body] and regardless of whatever else happens, the offseason is an A+. It'd be nice to land Parise, but that's not happening, and I don't like the price tag for a guy like Nash (huge contract hit, loss of really good young prospects, locked up until 2018). If a guy like Bobby Ryan is available, he might be worth the gamble - but I'm content with staying put up front and letting our farm system grow. And if we can flip Franzen for someone, that'd be fine by me too. [Title]

Output: Land Suter


Input: [Date] 5 years 34 weeks ago [Title] Totally [Body]

Output: I am totally for that. In addition I support more regular shapes, a larger band, and better shows. Will any of this happen? nope. What you can do!- if you know any current band members suggest show ideas to them. They get up to 3 "votes" on suggestions for next seasons tunes. Usually the students only get to influence 1 show, but if they all suggest a really cool idea, that would be one show that's really good at least.


Input: [Date] 5 years 34 weeks ago [Title] ATTENTION! [Body]

Output: anyone in sections 4-25 during the game, you have basically no chance to hear the band. Welcome to physics. That's how sound works, and most of these are directional instruments. Anyone from 26-3 should expect to hear something, although depending on where you are not so much. For pregame 20-26 should expect to hear most of it except for when they play towards the end zones. Half time is basically the same thing minus when they pity the non-pressbox side. Also, cutting instruments will not make the band louder unless you know a whole bunch of kids who want to audition for trumpet and trombone. Last couple of years, those numbers have been down and it has hurt the overall volume level. Hate to sound like the football team, but yes it matters how many players the band has. Not saying Boerma isn't too blame, (which he very much is) but it's saying something when the band can't fill the quota for trombone players (one of the loudest instruments).


Input: [Date] 5 years 35 weeks ago [Title] THANK YOU! [Body]

Output: I've been waiting for anyone to bring this up. 4 games in 7 days. I know they didn't practice Monday(travel/rest day), so they have had probably 1 or 2 days of practice since Beilein has noticed all these issues. What did you really think would get fixed? Long season, plenty of games to earn those "quality wins" so sack up and lets watch some basketball.


Input: [Date] 5 years 38 weeks ago [Title] Most penalized team? [Body]

Output: Funny you mention illegal, I thought I just heard Keith Jackson say that UM was the most penalized team in the country. I'm not saying it's not a GREAT defense, but you'd think a Carr team would be anti-penalty. Maybe it was just the young gusto Carr being overly aggressive (too bad that didn't last) to get big hits etc. Note- He said this while UM was on defense but I have no clue what the breakdown was. Anyone else laughing how different football was 11 years ago? even the production value seems so retro.


Input: [Date] 5 years 39 weeks ago [Title] Linda [Body]

Output: I can not wait to hear what LINDA(!) has to say about all this.


Input: [Date] 5 years 39 weeks ago [Title] Why? [Body]

Output: Ok, I think you might be reading a bit much into that quote. Regardless, why not grant it for the 5th year? we still have an open scholarship for Trey, and if manny leaves(likely) we will have two open ships. Is there anyone else we are in on that we would need an extra scholarship or two going into next season that would necessitate forcing out a great team player?


Input: [Date] 5 years 41 weeks ago [Title] Huge Fan [Body]

Output: I'm a huge fan of this type of research. This is what truly makes this board so great in that it gives us ways to suggest new metrics/ideas. I think this rating tool could be added into UFR and would be meaningful. The best part is that it doesn't even introduce anything new, just views them differently. It's a simple plug and chug addition. Once again kudos.


Input: [Date] 5 years 42 weeks ago [Title] Yes [Body]

Output: Yes he is still at PSU,and yeah Garrett Graham is pretty darn good.


Input: [Date] 5 years 46 weeks ago [Title] Rawkband [Body]

Output: FWIW the halftime selection for this week is of the RAWK variety and not of the alumni pleasing variety so we'll see if that makes any difference in the discussion.


Input: [Date] 5 years 46 weeks ago [Title] That may be [Body]

Output: I know nothing about the numbers over a long period of time, but was simply relating the idea that we only have a band of brass is impractical based on the auditioning members currently. In addition there is no disputing that there are fewer members than there has been of late as it's come down from over 350ish to more like 320ish. I think topgun has the right idea that it's related to football success as sad as that is based on the evidence provided by the years after 97 when the band ballooned in size.


Input: [Date] 5 years 46 weeks ago [Title] To give you some perspective [Body]

Output: I was a member of the MMB recently and can tell you that they have been bleeding members the last 3 years. The band is down to around 320ish I believe and has been well over 400 at times. Part of this is a new musical cap put in place to promote musicality, but this does not explain the recent lack of people auditioning. This is especially true of Trombones and Trumpets who usually get no more than 20-25 people auditioning for about 15 spots. Of those 20, only maybe 13 or 14 are college level musicians. To give you a real number example, there are only around 40 trombones in this years band and they will take up to 60+. 20 Trombones is a huge difference in sound and balance of a band. It pains me to say it, but there is not the interest in bands that their once was and the lack of interest more than anything else has to be partly responsible in the lack of noise. This is not an excuse* for a lack of noise, but something to be considered. *(see Charlie Weis for example of excuses)


Input: [Date] 2 days 42 min ago [Body] Ohio State at 5:2 odds is a far worse bet. [Title]

Output: 100:1 odds isn't a crazy bet to make


Input: [Date] 1 week 3 days ago [Body] Deals for NBA players do not have to be guaranteed. Most in practice are, but some have partial guarantees, or are unguaranteed until a specific date, etc. Media reports often call these non-guaranteed seasons team options, but that is technically incorrect in NBA contract parlance. For example, Brandon Haywood has a $10.5 million contract this season with Cleveland, but it's completely unguaranteed as long as he's been waived by August 1st. Media reports might call this an option, but it's not, as NBA options have to be exercised by late June, and players cannot be traded if they only have an option year left on their contract. Accordingly, it's disadvantageous for teams to give out team options, except in rare circumstances, over non-guaranteed contracts. So almost every time you hear of a team option, it's probably a non-guaranteed year. [Title]

Output: This is incorrect


Input: [Date] 1 week 3 days ago [Body] He didn't really bet on himself last year. The Wolves could offer him no more than two years at the minimum due to salary cap rules. It's not clear what they chose to offer him, but they signed him to the one-year minimum tender after trading for Wiggins, so it's possible that the Wolves didn't want to commit to more, since their situation changed between draft night and when they signed GR3. Most second-rounders in his range signed for 3-4 years at the minimum, with 1-2 years guaranteed, so he's pretty much in the same place as everyone else. Just took a different route to get there. [Title]

Output: He's doing fine


Input: [Date] 1 week 3 days ago [Body] It's actually a very common contract for players with 0-2 years experience, to sign for 3-4 years at that level, so that players will not be restricted free agents when they come off the deal. His agent will be judged on what the guarantee level is on it. Getting two years guaranteed for him would be good work. I've been looking around trying to find out the amount of guarantee.. Haven't found it yet. [Title]

Output: I do expect it will be the minimum


Input: [Date] 1 week 3 days ago [Body] In addition to all the posts about American income levels, GR3 will make far more over the three years of this contract. Here are the minimum salaries he can make each year, per the NBA CBA. Year 1: $845,059 Year 2: $980,431 Year 3: $1,051,245 That totals to $2,876,735 over 3 years, or nearly double what you imagine. And again, that's the minimum over three years. [Title]

Output: That would be wrong


Input: [Date] 6 weeks 5 days ago [Body] People talk about his swing coach and all, but its the short game that's really left him. He used to be able to take aggressive approaches to holes, and when things went wrong, the wedge and putter could bail him out. Now even if he hits a great first two shots, you know the best he's getting is par. [Title]

Output: What boggles me is the short game


Input: [Date] 7 weeks 2 days ago [Body] But I was excluding our exalted host as he was not amongst the names listed. [Title]

Output: Yes, obviously


Input: [Date] 7 weeks 2 days ago [Body] Granted, it was when most of the attendees were in diapers, but still, that's the top accomplishment of all the QBs in attendance. I'm sure he'll wear his Super Bowl ring too. [Title]

Output: Grbac made a Pro Bowl


Input: [Date] 10 weeks 6 days ago [Body] He went to a CC for two years due to grades issues in high school. I mean, I wish him all the best, but I've heard for years on this board that someone like Moncrief can't get past admissions/transfer courses counting. Have I been misled all this time? [Title]

Output: Just wondering how he'll qualify for Michigan


Input: [Date] 11 weeks 23 hours ago [Body] Mexico City was mentioned by Brian in Unverified Voracity, not Ace in recruiting (unless I missed that somewhere and it was in both). [Title]

Output: Not Ace


Input: [Date] 11 weeks 4 days ago [Body] Not saying that Morrison is the mystery transfer -- just that a quote from January and a transder now are not mutually exclusive. It would say bad things about how spring practice went for Florida, but who knows. [Title]

Output: Maybe spring practices changed his mind?


Input: [Date] 11 weeks 5 days ago [Body] I think his post got edited, because now it says 6-foot point guards, but when I started replying I swear it just said "guards". Maybe I misread (bad on me for posting at work). Regardless, Tyus Jones measures 6' 0.25" at the combine yesterday, and Winston is still a junior in high school with time to add an inch or two (or six even). Heck, Russell only measured 6' 3.25". He's not some giant. Again, all I said is that I wouldn't expect Winston to commit any time soon, not that I don't expect him to commit. Calm down, everyone. [Title]

Output: Was he?


Input: [Date] 11 weeks 5 days ago [Body] My post does say "2 years at most", so I allow for that. However, two of the top 4 projected players this year are likely to be guards who are freshmen (or would have been had they been NCAA eligible in the case of Mudaiy). Tyus Jones should be the third or fourth PG picked in the first round, and is also a freshman. If you're one of the top 3 PG in your high school class, 1-and-done is still reasonable. And regardless, even if you need to prove yourself for 2 years in college as a guard, it's still better to start than sit behind a senior for year 1. What do you think Duke sold Derryck Thornton on? "Come start for two years here and enter the NBA draft in 2017. It'll be better than starting one year somewhere else." [Title]

Output: 2 years


Input: [Date] 11 weeks 5 days ago [Body] Specifically related to my playing time argument. They're still getting some big recruits, but they're missing out on ones that they'd often get, and Calipari is making a big deal that his platoon system this year won't happen again. As long as the one-and-done rule is still viable, most top 3 players at their position (which is what Winston is) won't want to go t o a place where they might get 10-15 minutes per game as a freshman. And if Walton returns for his senior year, that's about all that would likely be available. But if Walton makes the jump, that would be the third starting PG in a row that Beilein has gotten to the NBA, and Winston should very much consider Michigan to become the next PG in that trend. [Title]

Output: Kentucky is having trouble recruiting this year


Input: [Date] 11 weeks 6 days ago [Body] I don't think it's impossible he winds up at Michigan, but I'd be pretty surprised if that decision were imminent. Early playing time is so important to 5-star recruits, as they are planning to stay only 2 years at most (whether that happens or not is different, but that's the general plan). If Winston were to commit to Michigan before next April, I think it would only be if Walton were to look like someone heading to the NBA after next season. Of course, I do have those expectations for Walton, and thus expectations for Winston, but I'd be surprised if Winston signed on before February. [Title]

Output: Depends how long you want to stay buckled


Input: [Date] 11 weeks 6 days ago [Body] Please just go back under your bridge in Columbus, East Lansing, Bolivia, or wherever it is. [Title]

Output: Go away


Input: [Date] 14 weeks 16 hours ago [Body] I lost count of the number of pushes in the back delivered by Tristan Thompson and arm-bars from Mosgov. The entire series was played with the refs letting almost everything go on rebounds. Was it a foul? Yes. But taken in context of the previous 12.5 quarters of basketball, it was far from egregious. It was too much contact that led to an awkward injury, with Love pulling one way as Olynyk falls the opposite direction, and gravity did its work. It just as easily could have been Olynyk who got hurt on that play or a number of others in the series. What I'm most surprised about is that Perkins walked away without an ejection or suspension. He checks into the game and immediately puts two hands to the face of Jae Crowder on a blind screen. Refs should have tossed Perkins then, and that probably stops it right there before Smith went MMA on Crowder (who was fouling Smith at the time) in the second half. Or they shouldn't have suspended ejected anyone. If you want a really physical series, which again, they let happen, then you need to deal with the consequences, which are scrums and injuries. [Title]

Output: The refs weren't calling anything on rebounds the entire series


Input: [Date] 14 weeks 1 day ago [Body] Rankings can be pretty site specific, but according to Rivals, GR3 was our top recruit at #11 overall. Irvin and Chatman, at 24 and 25, were both rated above McGary at 30 in the final rankings. McGary fell a bit as his senior year wore on. Brown, of course, would exceed all of them. But we've had a top-25 recruit three years in a row. Just no top-5 kids. [Title]

Output: Top recruits under Beilein


Input: [Date] 14 weeks 1 day ago [Body] We were so close to a championship for a couple of years before this year's dip. Adding Brown to our returning team can take us right back there in a hurry. And for all you football fans, an electric Crisler crowd is a nice recruiting tool during the football offseason -- Brown would definitely make it electric. And, on the off-chance he stays for two years -- whoa, Nellie! [Title]

Output: Brown


Input: [Date] 14 weeks 4 days ago [Body] A neighbor of mine a few years ago had that. Made me chuckle every time I connected to a network. [Title]

Output: Router? I hardly even know her


Input: [Date] 14 weeks 6 days ago [Body] He really has until the first day of classes as long as a scholarship is available at a school he wants to attend. He's one of the top 2-3 players in the country. Deadlines don't really apply when you're that good. He doesn't need to sign a letter of intent if he doesn't want. That said, if he chooses to sign an NLI, he has until May 20th. [Title]

Output: For someone like Brown


Input: [Date] 14 weeks 6 days ago [Body] Spectrum isn't that plentiful, and Google can't possibly get enough spectrum in the next auction to start a competitive network from scratch. I do agree that this lets them dip their toes into the water, but if they take the plunge, I see them buying either T-Mobile, Sprint, or DISH. T-Mobile is the most likely, because they are actively trying to sell, and are partnering with Google in this. Sprint also is rumored to be wiling to sell if the price is right, although are less actively seeking bids, and are also working with Google's test. DISH has hoards of spectrum that's presently unused, although they can't sell much of it without incurring a large penalty owed to the FCC. [Title]

Output: Future plans


Input: [Date] 15 weeks 18 hours ago [Body] I'm not the most active commenter, but this has become a site I corne to less because of some commenters. It used to be multiple times per day site for me. Now I take weeks-long breaks. [Title]

Output: 100% co-sign


Input: [Date] 15 weeks 23 hours ago [Body] Who's to say what would have happened to Morris? The 2012 draft class was much deeper than 2011. Who's to say his game doesn't stagnate a bit and he goes undrafted? Morris has made $2.5 million in the NBA since he left, while living out his dream playing in the NBA. Heck, he was even drafted by and played two years for his childhood favorite team. The decision absolutely worked for him. People need to let it go and realize he's having a career as an NBA player, and it's unlikely that an additional year of college would have elevated his game such that he'd get more minutes than he currently does. His talent level is that of a reserve, which is still extraordinarily talented. And he's getting paid for his talents. The confidence on this board with which people think they know what's best for a player, ignoring the fact that said player has made $2.5 million since his decision, is somewhere between idiotic and ridiculously conceited. He's four years into an NBA career, and is on a playoff team for the third time. He's not an NBA washout. The NBA salary cap is very friendly to veterans who make the minimum salary. Service time is a real big deal, particularly getting to year 3, and leaving early earned him an important extra year. You compare him to Marcus Taylor, who had all of one season in the NBA. Apples to oranges. [Title]

Output: I don't think that is remotely clear-cut


Input: [Date] 15 weeks 1 day ago [Body] I hope that we as a blog/fan base can be supportive of him instead of being derisive. It's embarrassing the amount of hate D-Mo gets on this board. [Title]

Output: If he does go pro


Input: [Date] 15 weeks 1 day ago [Body] I'm probably going to get negged for my pessimism, but a couple other potential first-rounders have announced they're staying, and I think that will clear enough spots ahead of him to get drafted in the first. I hope I'm wrong, but that plus the recruitment of the VCU kid just makes it feel that's what's happening. That said, I hedged my bets by posting on the NBA boards I frequent that I think he's staying. I'll be wrong one place or the other, so I hope the egg is on my face here. [Title]

Output: I think he's gone


Input: [Date] 15 weeks 1 day ago [Body] Congrats! Comcast keeps telling me I need to upgrade my modem (as in, please rent from us) for better service, but they don't have 3.0 yet where I live, and I get my advertised speeds much of the time. They just stink. [Title]

Output: You're in a DOCSIS 3.0 market


Input: [Date] 15 weeks 1 day ago [Body] Just to clarify -- bundling as a telecom industry terms is used to describe offering different types of service (cable/phone/internet) to consumers under one contract. It is not typically used to describe the packaging of different stations together in cable tiers. And with that point, for many Americans, it is certainily bundling which causes prices to rise, as providers use monopoly power in one of their lines of service to subsidize another. For example, where I live Comcast is the only high-speed internet provider. 70% of my $110 monthly bill goes to pay for my 20/3 service (which rarely hits 20/3, and has outages about once per month.) My cable costs are a whopping $33, despite my very large selection of stations. I'm very sure that Comcast pays the various cable stations more on a per subscriber basis than I pay them monthly, but they can gouge me in the monopoly market of internet to keep me, and at the same time keep me from going to a satellite option for cable, because it's not cost effective. In other areas of the country (and I actually keep track of telecom prices as part of my job), this ratio is reversed, if Comcast/Verizon/whomever has more monopoly power in another service type (cable instead of internet, for example). Cross-product subsidization is a gold mine for companies. Accordingly, this pricing strategy probably shifts money from Disney to Verizon, and not at all to consumers. On a related note, look at your cable bill and see if you have a new fee for "Regional Sports Networks." It's a fee that a lot of companies have started to add to existing accounts over the last year. [Title]

Output: Bundling


Input: [Date] 15 weeks 5 days ago [Body] No way he'd do anything but the same way all the time because "it's hist system." I'm going to trust that Beilein knows a bit more than you do -- whether it be that he'll need another big due to attrition, that Davis is about to get offers from top programs and was getting him first, or in fact just thinks he'll be a good player for Michigan regardless of what Tom Izzo thinks. He's clearly done a great job of identifying and developing talent. There's really little to question given his track record. [Title]

Output: Yeah, I mean Beilein wouldn't try something different


Input: [Date] 15 weeks 5 days ago [Body] But actually Doyle is going to elevate his game, lead us to a championship, and bolt for the NBA. Beilein sophomore bump! [Title]

Output: Close


Input: [Date] 1 week 3 days ago [Body] 9-10 wins plus bowl win [Title]

Output: Very


Input: [Date] 2 weeks 3 hours ago [Body] I turned the game off and acted like I didn't give a damn more times in the past 8 years than in my first 19. Anytime that you turn your team off is a low point. Lowest point was UM getting hammered by Oregon, I was out at MSU at a party that day. [Title]

Output: Put it this way


Input: [Date] 2 weeks 4 hours ago [Body] I believe it's ACT prep, not the actual test itself. [Title]

Output: ACT prep


Input: [Date] 1 year 10 weeks ago [Body] Go Blue [Title]

Output: Mine too


Input: [Date] 1 year 10 weeks ago [Body] Jabrill Peppers [Title]

Output: Two Words


Input: [Date] 1 year 17 weeks ago [Body] As he was a QB in HS and would have been deadly as a read option guy [Title]

Output: He would have made the RR transition easier


Input: [Date] 1 year 35 weeks ago [Body] Playing Avery & Furman was a big mistake. They suck. Also missed Ross [Title]

Output: Mine


Input: [Date] 2 years 4 weeks ago [Body] I seen on twitter reports are that it could be Swain or Furbush, not sure how accurate that is. I think it's going to Crawford. [Title]

Output: A LB


Input: [Date] 2 years 11 weeks ago [Body] I'm hearing that Beaver & Webb aren't so sure on this & he's headed to PSU [Title]

Output: Not so fast


Input: [Date] 2 years 24 weeks ago [Body] Zeller will go to the NBA, Nix will graduate and Payne may leave for the NBA although I don't see him being an extremely tough matchup with Nix gone [Title]

Output: Plus BIG big men are leaving


Input: [Date] 2 years 24 weeks ago [Body] With 3 games in the next 2 weeks that will give the team time to rest their legs, regroup and get some quality practice time in AA. Hopefully the games vs PSU are blow outs so the starters can get some rest and the freshman non starters & sophomores can get some extended quality minutes. Also I think this will give J Morgan time to further heal giving M the ability to use both he & McGary at the same time vs IU & MSU and that will in turn keep GR3 & Stauskas minutes down a bit to not wear them back out [Title]

Output: I think the rest is the major plus


Input: [Date] 2 years 27 weeks ago [Body] 26 to 1 man [Title]

Output: 26 UM commits thinks he going to M


Input: [Date] 2 years 27 weeks ago [Body] You keep starting Morgan but you do not hesitate to bring in Big Mitch, especially when Morgan gets manhandled like he did vs Minn [Title]

Output: I Agree


Input: [Date] 2 years 27 weeks ago [Body] Him on Wednesday and that is his last in home, id assume Jackson & Borges will be the ones going to VA. Ten also has a visit earlier that day so I think m is sitting pretty [Title]

Output: Michigan coaches are visiting


Input: [Date] 2 years 28 weeks ago [Body] Like Standifer has [Title]

Output: No offers


Input: [Date] 2 years 39 weeks ago [Body] I believe I seen a quote from JB saying Trey was being suspended for a former action. I think it could be for his twitter comments regarding the MSU football team and how they sucked a few weeks ago. That makes sense to me [Title]

Output: Twitter?


Input: [Date] 2 years 41 weeks ago [Body] And should be treated like one [Title]

Output: Dude has proved he's an animal


Input: [Date] 2 years 41 weeks ago [Body] They should take the guy straight to the gas chamber, he doesn't belong in society and it wouldn't b fair to put this burden on the tax payers [Title]
