Input: [Date] 3 years 5 weeks ago [Body] That was really cool. And emotional. Thanks for posting that. Too bad Chris, Jimmy and Ray couldn't be there to share that with Juwan too. [Title]

Output: That was really cool. And


Input: [Date] 3 years 5 weeks ago [Body] Now that is a true Michigan fan dog's name. Unfortunately, the name is the easy part. Getting the dog to watch the game with you is the impossible part. Every dog I've had hides when the Michigan game is on. [Title]

Output: Taco Pants!


Input: [Date] 3 years 6 weeks ago [Body] I was also suprised by the boxers. I kind of thought boxing was on the decline. Almost everyone I know is much more into the UFC. [Title]

Output: I was also suprised by the


Input: [Date] 3 years 6 weeks ago [Body] This. I was especially angry with Congress when they decided to butt in. As if they don't have enough real problems to deal with. Frankly I think the owners have donated so much $ to the politicians, that the politicians do their bidding. And I'm not singling out either party, they are both beholden to their campaign donors. The owners used the bought and paid for Congress to make it seem like baseball was really getting cleaned up. The whole thing was about image, not a genuine desire for a clean game. Anyway, good for Roger. I'm happy he beat those bozos. [Title]

Output: This. I was especially angry


Input: [Date] 3 years 6 weeks ago [Body] Perfect response. I like his confidence. And I believe the coaches frankly explain to the recruits that Michigan is going to bring in top athletes year in and year out. [Title]

Output: Perfect response. I like his


Input: [Date] 3 years 6 weeks ago [Body] I think Bailey and McQuay are supposed to be visiting in the next few weeks. Our main competition for Bailey is FSU. It would be nice if this one goes our way. [Title]

Output: I think Bailey and McQuay are


Input: [Date] 3 years 6 weeks ago [Body] Did Ondre say what his weight is right now or what his target weight is? I remember him talking about the Army All-American game last year where he said he played at 360 lbs. [Title]

Output: Did Ondre say what his weight


Input: [Date] 3 years 7 weeks ago [Body] Thanks for posting that. It's not suprising that Hoke and staff pay no attention to the star ratings. [Title]

Output: Thanks for posting that.


Input: [Date] 3 years 7 weeks ago [Body] High School kids do just fine with long snapping. It doesn't seem that hard. I'm with the pissed off crowd wondering why a walk on can't suffice? But that was interesting to see that the other major football powers feel its an important enough position that they will burn a scholly on it. Trust the coaches and all that.... Welcome Scott Sypniewski! [Title]

Output: High School kids do just fine


Input: [Date] 3 years 8 weeks ago [Body] Sucks that we missed on Isaac but Green and Wilkins are both pretty good. I just hope Wilkins gives us a fair shot and is able to visit next weekend. Anyway, it seems likely that we might take a 4th receiver if we miss out on these two. Are there any other RB's that have mutual interest? [Title]

Output: Sucks that we missed on Isaac


Input: [Date] 3 years 8 weeks ago [Body] Lol. That's messed up dude. I wish I could "un-see" this. [Title]

Output: Lol. That's messed up dude.


Input: [Date] 3 years 8 weeks ago [Body] I gotta say, his apology was a lot more real than any politician's I've ever seen. None of that "I'm sorry if anyone was offended" crap. Seems a lot more genuine than just covering his own ass. I can't speak for everyone but I accept his apology and will happily forget about the incident. [Title]

Output: Seems genuine to me


Input: [Date] 3 years 8 weeks ago [Body] The fact that he hasn't been kicked off the team is good news. But that being said, this news is very alarming and dissappointing heading into a year with such high expectations. We've been rooting for BWC to live up to his potential for years. And this crap always happens at the position we're the thinnest at. Ef Murphy. [Title]

Output: The fact that he hasn't been


Input: [Date] 3 years 8 weeks ago [Body] You've got a good point that we already have two tall possesion-type receivers committed to this class and that Devon Allen would add a speed dimension to our passing game. But I think Treadwell is a much better prospect. I know ratings don't mean bupkis but Treadwell is considered an elite, top ten receiver by almost all of the services. The only way I see us taking Allen is if we whiff on Treadwell (make my head asplode) or if the coaches decide to take 4 wr in this class. I hope neither of these things happen. [Title]

Output: Treadwell and done


Input: [Date] 3 years 9 weeks ago [Body] We're way overdue for some good news. I believe I heard some strong rumors last week that we could get one or possibly two commits very soon. I'm still buckled up.... [Title]

Output: We're waaay overdue


Input: [Date] 3 years 10 weeks ago [Body] Actually, yes I am. And I will think of that fucking cowardly "neck-crank" on Denard whenever I see Gholston on TV or see his name in print forever. And, I don't think a one game suspension was a sufficient deterrence from seeing this kind of play again. And I don't think D'Antonio got the message either. Anyway, mostly it should just be fuel to the fire for next years game. [Title]

Output: Actually, yes I am. And I


Input: [Date] 3 years 10 weeks ago [Body] We'll have the answer to that question soon enough. I read the whole article. Apparently Gholston apologized for the incidents and wishes to be thought of as a person of high character. If Gholston turns into a goon and purposly tries to injure our best players again this year, he is a sociopath. If he can play clean, he's not. [Title]

Output: Sociopath?


Input: [Date] 3 years 14 weeks ago [Body] I believe he is announcing at 3pm on Tuesday (tomorrow) at his school. [Title]

Output: I believe he is announcing at


Input: [Date] 3 years 15 weeks ago [Body] No prognostication but I'm hoping to see some good stuff tomorrow. I want to see a crisp, efficient Denard passing game. I bet everyone is particularly interested in the D-line. I want to see how BWC and Jibreel look as the starting NT and DT. I want to see how Devin Gardner looks at WR. And I really want to see how the EE freshman play. Joe Bolden has been getting a lot of mentions in spring practice pressers and Jerrod Wilson too to a lesser degree. [Title]

Output: No prognostication but I'm


Input: [Date] 3 years 15 weeks ago [Body] From what I hear, Dymonte played a critical role in the recruitment of Ben Gedeon. [Title]

Output: From what I hear, Dymonte


Input: [Date] 3 years 16 weeks ago [Body] I didn't hear about this last night. What a great way to wake up. There will definitely be some productivity loss at work today. [Title]

Output: Productivity loss


Input: [Date] 3 years 16 weeks ago [Body] You are assuming that local schools didn't want him. Perhaps it was the other way around? Maybe his plan was to go to school someplace warm and he let MSU, Iowa and Wiscy know he wasn't in play. [Title]

Output: Its a mystery


Input: [Date] 3 years 16 weeks ago [Body] Unfortunately, Mathis may have some grade issues. I'm just passing along some info (not sure how solid) that I read on 24/7. http://michigan.247sports.com/Board/59424/RE-Mathis-8886671/1 The article is in the Michigan section but it appears to be from a USC fan. I remember last year we wouldn't take Aaron Burbridge because of questionable grades and I think Anthony Standifer was misssing a requirement so I know how strict our requirements are. I hope these reports are false, but they should be looked into before we pencil Mathis into our rotation. [Title]

Output: Please don't shoot the messenger.


Input: [Date] 3 years 16 weeks ago [Body] Yeah, we really do have a decent shot at finishing the class that way. And the other WR will be a stud too. We're in on so many good ones. [Title]

Output: Yeah, we really do have a


Input: [Date] 3 years 16 weeks ago [Body] We have so much talent on the D-line that we are going to have to have line changes like in Hockey rather than individual substitutions. [Title]

Output: We have so much talent on the


Input: [Date] 3 years 16 weeks ago [Body] Saban looked like their best QB. [Title]

Output: Saban looked like their best


Input: [Date] 3 years 17 weeks ago [Body] If you didn't like the coaches decision to not redshirt Talbott, get ready to be very dissappointed over the next few years. I don't think Hoke & Staff can afford to RS many players. The pressure is on to win and win now. Perhaps in a few years when he's had four or more recruiting classes and plenty of depth he will have the luxury of RSing players? [Title]

Output: Its a matter of depth


Input: [Date] 3 years 17 weeks ago [Body] And halfway expected a belated April fool's prank. [Title]

Output: Guilty.


Input: [Date] 3 years 17 weeks ago [Body] There were a few big name receivers I didn't see mentioned: Darell Daniels, Robert Foster, Marquez North and James Quick. Not that any were Michigan leans, I was just wondering if you've heard Michigan is being considered by any of these players? [Title]

Output: There were a few big name


Input: [Date] 3 years 17 weeks ago [Body] Is this one of those cases where a guy is "criminally underrated", as Aquaman loves to say? On paper, it looks like we already have two cornerbacks committed that are higher rated than Butler plus a killer safety. Seems like we would only be interested in elite DB's with so few spots left. [Title]

Output: 3* Devin Butler


Input: [Date] 3 years 17 weeks ago [Body] That sucks bro. I enjoyed your updates. Hope you change your mind. [Title]

Output: That sucks bro. I enjoyed


Input: [Date] 3 years 18 weeks ago [Body] I stand corrected by the man himself. Sorry, I thought you had some way of verifying which kids have offers and which ones didn't. [Title]

Output: I stand corrected by the man


Input: [Date] 3 years 18 weeks ago [Body] Magnus does a good job of keeping track of who has been offered: http://touchthebanner.blogspot.com/p/2013-offer-board.html JoJo has not. [Title]

Output: Magnus does a good job of


Input: [Date] 3 years 18 weeks ago [Body] Daniels is just one of many high quality receivers we are in hot pursuit of. You can check out interviews and updates about Daniels on Tremendous' site: http://thisismichiganfootball.blogspot.com/2012/03/darrell-daniels-update.html A few of the other receivers we are looking at: Eldridge Massington, Devon Allen, Marquez North, Sebastian LaRue, Marcell Ateman, Demorea Stringfellow and Uriah LeMay. Of course our #1 target is Laquon Treadwell. The only problem I see is that Treadwell is the only one from the Midwest so it may be challenging to get these guys to visit. [Title]

Output: Daniels is just one of many


Input: [Date] 3 years 18 weeks ago [Body] Apparently Sam Webb says the coaches are planning for this class to be 24 recruits. That means we have 8 spots left. I hope we finish with Ty Isaac, Henry Poggi, EJ Levenberry, Ben Gedeon, LaQuon Treadwell, Darell Daniels, Greg Webb and Su'a Cravens. [Title]

Output: Apparently Sam Webb says the


Input: [Date] 3 years 19 weeks ago [Body] Ouch. Too soon, too soon. [Title]

Output: Ouch. Too soon, too soon.


Input: [Date] 3 years 19 weeks ago [Body] I'm sure the coaches could care less about a recruits rankings which is how it should be. Rankings and stars are for fans. Otherwise what the hell are we gonna argue or complain about for the six months of the year our guys aren't playing football? [Title]

Output: I'm sure the coaches could


Input: [Date] 3 years 19 weeks ago [Body] Thats an understatement. I've heard some say Isaac would be considered a top 10 receiver if that were his position of choice. [Title]

Output: Isaac can play receiver too


Input: [Date] 3 years 19 weeks ago [Body] Warning to everyone..... This idiot trolls the 247 Wolverine boards too as "HOWARD STERN" making ridiculous predictions that never come true just like he's doing now. Some people just need attention. [Title]

Output: Troll Alert


Input: [Date] 3 years 19 weeks ago [Body] Sounds like we're going to be using a lot of 2 TE formations heading into the future. That means we need more on the roster. I also hear some people talking about sub-positions that I'm not as familiar with. I wish Ace or someone would come out and explain what is the difference between a U-back, Y-back and TE. [Title]

Output: Sub-positions


Input: [Date] 3 years 19 weeks ago [Body] I don't think we've seen enough of him to tell if he can "carry the load" one day. He played a little last year (true freshman) so I think that is a good sign of his potential. Anyway, I think spring practices are going on right now so there may be info coming in the next few weeks about our running back situation. [Title]

Output: I don't think we've seen


Input: [Date] 3 years 19 weeks ago [Body] Yep, depends on who the RB and TE are. I'd take Isaac over any TE. I'd probably take Derrick Green over an extra TE too for that matter. I hear his visit went very well. As far as TE's go, there doesn't seem to be that many high quality guys left not committed or heavily leaning towards other schools, so lets use the scholly on a better player at another position of need please. [Title]

Output: Yep, depends on who the RB


Input: [Date] 3 years 19 weeks ago [Body] The two guys I'd love to snag this weekend are Henry Poggi and Deveon Smith. [Title]

Output: The two guys I'd love to snag


Input: [Date] 3 years 19 weeks ago [Body] Seven is about the age I started going. Your son will love it! Makes me wish I was a kid again seeing the Big House through those eyes. [Title]

Output: Seven is about the age I


Input: [Date] 3 years 19 weeks ago [Body] As long as we're having delusions of granduer, they might as well be really grand, eh? [Title]

Output: As long as we're having


Input: [Date] 3 years 19 weeks ago [Body] Haha. Ty Isaac is like a Rorschach test. Everyone sees something different in him. But hey, I'd love a Dickerson/Brown combo back. [Title]

Output: Haha. Ty Isaac is like a


Input: [Date] 3 years 20 weeks ago [Body] Who are the other redshirt juniors that might not get asked back for a fifth year? [Title]

Output: Who are the other redshirt


Input: [Date] 3 years 20 weeks ago [Body] My impression is that we are recruiting Su'a as an Athlete. He can play Safety but may also line up at RB or WR. [Title]

Output: Athelete


Input: [Date] 3 years 20 weeks ago [Body] Michigan won a share of the B1G title already based on regular season play. What is at stake if a team wins the B1G tourney? [Title]

Output: Michigan won a share of the


Input: [Date] 3 years 20 weeks ago [Body] I was thinking the same thing. Every time I turn around someone is posting "Shane Morris said X" on twitter while talking to other players. In fact, I think Shane is really keeping after Ty Isaac by Twitter. Perhaps our recruiters should warn kids of the potential trouble they could get themselves in? Too bad Yuri Wright didn't have a little better guidance last year. [Title]

Output: Recruiting


Input: [Date] 3 years 20 weeks ago [Body] Dukes, Lewis and Dawson are all in Scout's top 300. Last year all of the recruits in the top 300 on Scout were ranked as 4-stars. So, I would expect all have a good chance at getting their 4th star by the end of the recruiting cycle. SIAP [Title]

Output: Dukes, Lewis & Dawson


Input: [Date] 3 years 20 weeks ago [Body] Get an offer out to him right away too please. [Title]

Output: Jabrill Peppers


Input: [Date] 3 years 21 weeks ago [Body] My first thought too. I just checked the Onion homepage and it's not from them. And April 1st is still weeks away so.......... [Title]

Output: My first thought too. I just


Input: [Date] 3 years 21 weeks ago [Body] I'd be suprised if I'm the first one to point out the resemblence with McLovin. [Title]

Output: It's Ace!


Input: [Date] 3 years 21 weeks ago [Body] When I first heard his name I thought I heard Ben Gideon and immediately thought of the bible distributing evangelical group called the Gideons. [Title]

Output: Gideons


Input: [Date] 3 years 21 weeks ago [Body] I still can't believe we got Kugler and the rest of the o-line. All of these kids seem like high character individuals as well as good athletes. [Title]

Output: I still can't believe we got


Input: [Date] 3 years 22 weeks ago [Body] By all accounts, he is a very talented lineman and could potentially play guard or center. Rivals and Espn rate him at 4-star while 247 and Scout give him 3 stars. We are think at O-line and have 4 guys graduating. Kozan would be a big help at a position of need. [Title]

Output: Exactly


Input: [Date] 3 years 22 weeks ago [Body] I'm worried that Isaac is distracted by too many other teams at this point. We can't go all the way down to the last days of next January waiting for a commitment from this guy. If Deveon Smith or another decent 4 star running back wants to come to Michigan I say we take them first and hope that Isaac will still come. But judging from this interview, he is by no means a lock for Michigan. [Title]

Output: I'm worried that Isaac is


Input: [Date] 3 years 22 weeks ago [Body] Kate Upton must be on hostess duty again this weekend. [Title]

Output: The only explanation.


Input: [Date] 3 years 23 weeks ago [Body] I just noticed Dymonte Thomas moved up to #40 overall on 24/7 rankings. I believe he was #77 previously. Edit: LTT moved up too. Can't remember what he was but he's #89 overall now. [Title]

Output: Dymonte moved up too


Input: [Date] 3 years 23 weeks ago [Body] Agree totally. Even small and medium size companies are hiring social media directors all accross the country. [Title]

Output: Agree totally. Even small


Input: [Date] 3 years 23 weeks ago [Body] SIAP but did it say anywhere what Treadwell's timeline is? I hope we don't have to wait till the Under Armor game again, sheesh. [Title]

Output: SIAP but did it say anywhere


Input: [Date] 3 years 23 weeks ago [Body] Totally agree and I'm afraid to go to bed because I might miss another 4 star or two committing before sunrise tomorrow. [Title]

Output: Totally agree and I'm afraid


Input: [Date] 3 years 23 weeks ago [Body] 41 minutes ago on Twitter, Tremendous said that we might not be done for the day. So maybe we do get one more. At any rate, today has been amazing. [Title]

Output: 41 minutes ago on Twitter,


Input: [Date] 3 years 23 weeks ago [Body] On twitter TomVH pointed out that this time last year we had ZERO commits and it took all the way untill May for us to land our seventh recruit. I'm sure the fact that Hoke had only been on the job for a month at this time last year had something to do with it, but damn we sure are off to a fast pace this year. I would also bet that six out of last years first seven commits weren't 4 star recruits. So we're off to an even faster and better start than last year. [Title]

Output: On twitter TomVH pointed out


Input: [Date] 3 years 23 weeks ago [Body] I'm listening. I think Sam said sometime this hour it will be announced. And damn Bosch was an awesome surprise! [Title]

Output: I'm listening. I think Sam


Input: [Date] 3 years 23 weeks ago [Body] That would be pretty amazing. Not too many recruits higher on our board than Pocic I bet. [Title]

Output: Ethan Pocic


Input: [Date] 3 years 23 weeks ago [Body] That shit is real damn funny until it happens to you. [Title]

Output: Hilarious Gif


Input: [Date] 3 years 24 weeks ago [Body] Fwiw Scout has him as a mid 3 star rating (86/100) and he doesn't seem to be ranked by the other services. However, I think I'll trust Mattison and Hoke's evaluation methods. [Title]

Output: Fwiw Scout has him as a mid 3


Input: [Date] 3 years 24 weeks ago [Body] Awesome show. And the only reason I wouldn't love to see a real zombie apocalypse is because I'd miss Michigan football. /s [Title]

Output: Awesome show. And the only


Input: [Date] 3 years 24 weeks ago [Body] There are a bunch of big names visiting this weekend. Some posters on the 247Wolverine message board are speculating that we might get a commit or two this weekend. Specifically from Chris Fox (high 4 star o-line) and Jaron Dukes (not ranked but probably low 4 star wr). [Title]

Output: There are a bunch of big


Input: [Date] 3 years 24 weeks ago [Body] Sounds like we'll have plenty to complain about regarding Urban Meyer and his methods but I don't think this is one of those cases. I seem to recall at least two instances last year where Jamal Berry was either in a fight or just plain attacked another student on the quad. The articles posted here about the incidents seemed to indicate Berry had either a drug problem or perhaps mental health issues. Anyway I hope the kid gets well and gets to play football again one day. [Title]

Output: Sounds like we'll have plenty


Input: [Date] 3 years 25 weeks ago [Body] I've been hearing a lot about him lately. Some of the people talking about him seem to feel that even though he is as of yet unrated, he is nearly as good as Ty Isaac. I've even heard a few say he might be better (but those are in the minority). I think 24/7 is the site I've heard him talked about most on. [Title]

Output: Deveon Smith


Input: [Date] 3 years 25 weeks ago [Body] I'm suprised he wasn't considered a top 100 prospect. [Title]

Output: Deveon Smith


Input: [Date] 3 years 25 weeks ago [Body] Pee Wee reminds me a little of Warren Sapp. Can't wait to see him walk-the-walk next year. [Title]

Output: Warren Sapp


Input: [Date] 3 years 25 weeks ago [Body] I love your optimism. [Title]

Output: I love your optimism.

Input: [Date] 3 years 26 weeks ago [Body] Not cool man. [Title]

Input: [Date] 3 years 26 weeks ago [Body] Wow, this really really sucks! [Title]

Output: Wow, this really really


Input: [Date] 3 years 27 weeks ago [Body] Thanks for posting that. Scout does a great job of breaking down recruiting rankings by school, conference and even by position. Its also helpful that they assign a point value to each player. Michigan already has the number #1 offensive line class and we still may add blue chips - Garnett and Diamond. Maybe Kozan too (low chance at this point)? Our defensive line is rated #5. Linebackers #3. DB's #10 with blue chip Reeves still a strong possibility. There are a few things about their rankings that bothered me. One area that surprised me was the TE/WR category. According to Scout Funchess, Williams and Darboh are all 4 star rated and Chesson is a high 3 star. I'm not sure why we didn't make the top 10? Seems like a mistake on their part. The other thing that bothered me was our conference ranking. As a whole the B1G is ranked #5. We're slightly ahead of the Big East and just behind the ACC in recruiting as a conference. I suppose it could be because Penn State is having a down year but I also think schools like Michigan State and Wisconsin are doing a poor job of capitalizing on their on-field success. Seriously little bro, 11 wins and you should be able to grab half dozen 4 star players at least? [Title]

Output: Thanks for posting that.


Input: [Date] 3 years 27 weeks ago [Body] I don't think the board is being hypocritical. Yes its true we do seek information and access as fans but people don't like Ace Williams in particular because of things he's done in the past (unverified rumors, phony predictions, taking credit for insider info on paywalled sites, etc...). In this case, no one was mad at Ace Williams per se, they were just mad that this proven scumbag may have been the one to break the news about Yuri Wright. The AW hatred was there long before this story, thats why I say there is no hypocrisy. [Title]

Output: I don't think the board is


Input: [Date] 3 years 27 weeks ago [Body] Teabagging is a sex crime? I love how the police claim they're taking this very seriously. Yeah right. I'm sure they're laughing their asses off too. [Title]

Output: Teabagging is a sex crime? I


Input: [Date] 3 years 27 weeks ago [Body] Great. I hope its on par with what the basketball players have in the new PDC. State of the art training facilities are a must if we want to recruit against the top football programs. [Title]

Output: Great. I hope its on par


Input: [Date] 3 years 27 weeks ago [Body] If we were going to take 2 wr before Stonum was dismissed, it seems logical that now we would be looking to take 3. [Title]

Output: If we were going to take 2 wr


Input: [Date] 3 years 28 weeks ago [Body] I hope not. We're almost as thin at TE as we are at WR. [Title]

Output: I hope not. We're almost as


Input: [Date] 3 years 28 weeks ago [Body] Totally agree. Thats why I felt the OSU punishment was a slap in the face to schools who don't cheat. [Title]

Output: Totally agree. Thats why I


Input: [Date] 3 years 29 weeks ago [Body] I didn't see a rating for him on Scout or Rivals but 24/7 only has him as a 3-star (88 rating) which is actually slightly lower than Jehu Chesson (89 rating) got from them this year. Although his offer sheet seems to be of a much higher rated recruit. [Title]

Output: I didn't see a rating for him


Input: [Date] 3 years 30 weeks ago [Body] I think he's visiting Jan 13th. (btw I think Garnett is visiting that weekend too) [Title]

Output: I think he's visiting Jan

Output: I bet you had some epic


Input: [Date] 3 years 31 weeks ago [Body] Its not beyond the realm of possibility that we get both Reeves and Wright. We were interested in Wright long before Anthony Standifer decommitted so I assume the plan all along was to take 3 corner backs. [Title]

Output: Its not beyond the realm of


Input: [Date] 3 years 32 weeks ago [Body] Good pickup. I like that Morris is going to have a high quality corps of receivers the minute he joins the team in 2013.. [Title]

Output: Good pickup. I like that


Input: [Date] 3 years 32 weeks ago [Body] I would rather have Pharaoh Brown as one of our TE's than either Skip Holtz or Sam Grant. I hope the coaches can find a way to get him back on board. [Title]

Output: I would rather have Pharaoh

Output: What in the hell are they


Input: [Date] 1 day 4 hours ago [Body] That's absurd. For Michigan to get any votes at all is nothing but homerism by somebody and to put Michigan State outside of the top 10 is a denial of what they've done over Dantonio's tenure. [Title]

Output: That's absurd. For Michigan


Input: [Date] 1 day 16 hours ago [Body] You think this team has as many as 16 guys that will be NFL players? STOP IT! Just stop! I really hope you don't talk this way in public or to other fanbases in any way. This is such a homer's perspective that it makes me embarrassed. [Title]

Output: You think this team has as


Input: [Date] 1 day 22 hours ago [Body] Minnesota mopped the floor with Michigan in Michigan Stadium last year. Why would you think that Hoke would go into Minnesota and win? I don't know much about BYU. Maybe mark BYU or Penn State as a win if the team doesn't stumble too bad. I guess they're kinda like toss-ups. [Title]

Output: Minnesota mopped the floor


Input: [Date] 1 day 23 hours ago [Body] So which of those games do you think would be wins under Hoke that I have as losses under Harbaugh? [Title]

Input: [Date] 1 week 1 day ago [Body] There are 59 D1 teams. 16 get into the tournament. That's 27% so a comparable would be finishing ranked in the top 34 for football (27% of the total 128 football teams). There was one year in Carr's tenure that they didn't finished in the top 25. Michigan hockey has basically been playing the equivalent of Carr's worst year for the last 3 years. [Title]

Output: There are 59 D1 teams. 16 get

Output: Go into the wilderness?


Input: [Date] 1 week 5 days ago [Body] That's true, but I felt pretty neutral about the Adidas apparel, so I guess just count me among the few un-hyped. [Title]

Output: That's true, but I felt


Input: [Date] 1 week 5 days ago [Body] This is pretty much the most lateral move possible. I'm expecting to be entirely underwhelmed by any changes that are made while the masses go bonkers because it's Nike. [Title]

Output: Just the difference between


Input: [Date] 3 weeks 17 hours ago [Body] Even what we consider good hockey markets have gone through terrible attendance when their teams are really bad. Chicago and Pittsburgh did. That being said, after years of futility Florida has some good young talent there and made a playoff push late last season. They seem to be on the upswing. If their attendance isn't up next season I'm not convinced they'll be able to hang around too much longer. I know that the placement of these teams relies heavily on TV markets and that's why Quebec City isn't a shoe-in to get their team. It's not a new market. Everybody there already watches the NHL. I hope they get a team again though, because I have no doubt they'll be just like Winnipeg. Smaller market, but incredibly passionate fans. [Title]

Output: Even what we consider good


Input: [Date] 3 weeks 1 day ago [Body] "Why not here, and why not now?" The argument that literally every team in the country can use to say that this is their year. That's not a reason. That's a pep talk. Half the teams on the schedule before Oct 17 had better years than us last year. I don't know what they're all returning/losing but I do know that we're not looking impressive with what we're bringing back. I'm not into the idea of convincing myself Michigan is going to undergo a 1-year miracle turnaround. If it happens, great, but why the hell would you be so delusional as to expect it? [Title]

Output: "Why not here, and why not


Input: [Date] 3 weeks 1 day ago [Body] So, you're saying our top 2 receivers are 2 seniors who have combined for 848 career yards and our starting RB is a senior with 370 career yards. I can't even imagine why expectations are low, right? [Title]

Output: So, you're saying our top 2


Input: [Date] 3 weeks 1 day ago [Body] Our starting quarterback is either a guy Iowa benched last year or somebody with little to no game experience. Nobody can say who our #1 running back is, nor our #1 wide receiver. What makes you think this will be a good team? Edit: Damnit. Replied to the wrong comment. [Title]

Output: Our starting quarterback is

Input: [Date] 3 weeks 5 days ago [Body] I just realized that I absolutely HATE what this means for what our hockey jerseys could become. Nike has an affinity for dye-sublimated stripes that don't continue around the whole sleeve, fake lace collars, and weird squared-off collars. See: Minnesota, Michigan State, or the previous Olympic jerseys. [Title]

Input: [Date] 14 weeks 6 days ago [Body] We had the honor of getting trucked by Webber in the 91 finals as well. Crazy thing is that Vall was the third best player on that team but the only one that had his head screwed on straight to take advantage of a D1 scholarship offer. At least one other guy had one but combination of test scores and general knuckleheadedness prevented that. [Title]

Input: [Date] 35 weeks 5 hours ago [Body] Michigan played back in 2007, lost in 1st round to Butler. It's more of a mid-major tournament now though. This year's participants are Pacific, Alaska-Anchorage, Missouri State, Colorado State, Rice, Mercer, Washington State and UC Santa Barbara. Last year was Harvard, Denver, Wisconsin-Green Bay, Pepperdine, TCU, Alaska, Tulsa and Indiana State, so not exactly a stacked field. [Title]

Input: [Date] 2 weeks 6 hours ago [Title] I was always pretty amazed at [Body]

Output: I was always pretty amazed at how great some of the live Queen performances were, not because they weren't all great musicians, but because the studio recordings had so many overdubs with so many additional vocal tracks and guitar tracks for harmonies (along with other elements inherently unreproduceable in a live setting). I always would have figured that the live performances would comparatively sound empty, but nope; they sounded just as powerful live. Awesome.

Output: Short answer: Yes. Slightly longer answer: Yes, about 25 years before I attended it. When I was a student there, running the ball up the middle on 4th and 10 was pretty common. Also, I would like to retroactively apologize for Gary Danielson. I went to Divine Child in Dearborn for anyone wondering.

Input: [Date] 13 weeks 1 day ago [Title] App state 2007. I never went [Body]

Output: App state 2007. I never went to a game during undergrad because of other weekend obligations. I finally got a chance to go after i graduated. My first game was app state. Made me never want to go to a game again. My second game I went to was Toledo the following year. I went with the same friend whom I'd gone to the app state game. When they lined up to kick the field goal at the end of the game, we both looked at each other with that "are you fucking kidding me, this again?" look. I wish I were joking.


Input: [Date] 13 weeks 5 days ago [Title] All I got from this thread is [Body]

Output: All I got from this thread is that I cannot call myself an alumnus because I did my first two years of college at UM-Dearborn before transferring to UM-AA for my final two. I'd better tell the school to stop calling me and asking for money because I'm not a real UM grad. Certainly going back to school years later to complete requisite pre-health undergraduate courses at Wayne State for a career change doesn't help.


Input: [Date] 13 weeks 5 days ago [Title] Ha, try asking a current [Body]

Output: Ha, try asking a current UM-Dearborn student what they think about how their school compares to UM-AA. "Whether you go to Dearborn or Ann Arbor, your degree just says 'The University of Michigan.' " (nevermind that it's obvious where you went when the diploma says that your degree was awarded by CASL instead of LS&A) "UM-Dearborn kids are actually smarter because they're paying less for tuition." "Yeah, it's the same mascot, we're just a satellite campus!" (even though UM-Dearborn's mascot was the Wolves until like five years ago) I enjoyed my first two years at Dearborn, but I've never met so many needlessly insecure people in my entire life. I'm glad I transferred and finished up at Ann Arbor.


Input: [Date] 13 weeks 6 days ago [Title] Bingo. I spent my first two [Body]

Output: Bingo. I spent my first two years at UM-Dearborn and then transferred to finish my schooling at UM-AA. While I had some great professors and classmates at Dearborn, there is really no comparison. If it's offensive to some to consider the student body at one institution to be more intelligent (which is accurate; the admissions standards are not even remotely comparable), then at least acknowledge that the student body at UM-AA has significantly more diversity. The student body at UM-Dearborn is really, really homogenous.


Input: [Date] 14 weeks 3 days ago [Title] I love Saturday Day. [Body]

Output: I love Saturday Day.


Input: [Date] 15 weeks 3 days ago [Title] Considering that comment was [Body]

Output: Considering that comment was directed towards someone who referred to me by name in response to the phrase "fringe left," I don't know why you're hung up on that comment. I won't acknowledge the "problems" with the statistics because there are none. I mean, unless if you believe that violence against women and stalking are okay. Then I guess there is a problem with the CDC statistics. How about instead of wringing your hands about "sensational" statistics, you acknowledge that there is a serious problem with sexual assault on college campuses? No, it's more important that we get the stats right first before we do anything about it, apparently.


Input: [Date] 15 weeks 3 days ago [Title] Fortunately, I'm not [Body]

Output: Fortunately, I'm not "sensationalizing" the statistics -- the statistics are sensational on their own and they speak for themselves. Denying that there is a problem with sexual assault on campus is tantamount to sticking your fingers in your ears and refusing to listen. Show me where I said anyone was "pro rape" and maybe I'll take you seriously. You seem to have come up with that on your own to fit your narrative about sexual assault on campus.


Input: [Date] 15 weeks 3 days ago [Title] I know, right? Even though [Body]

Output: I know, right? Even though I'm against gun control and opposed to social programs, I must be part of the "fringe left" because I am against rape. I'll be sure to refer my friends to your posts next time they call me a "far right whack job."


Input: [Date] 15 weeks 3 days ago [Title] Exactly. [Body]

Output: Exactly.


Input: [Date] 15 weeks 3 days ago [Title] I believe that you believe [Body]

Output: I believe that you believe that men are being persecuted by "social justice warriors."


Input: [Date] 15 weeks 3 days ago [Title] You can't be serious. One in [Body]

Output: You can't be serious. One in three women will be sexually assaulted in her lifetime, and the vast majority of these cases happen during college. Most rapes go completely unreported. You really want to be on this side of the fence, where you're worried about what happens to "innocent" men on college campuses? How about what happens to innocent women? Most investigations by proxy side with the man and treat the woman like a liar. Shame on you.


Input: [Date] 15 weeks 3 days ago [Title] George Carlin pretty much [Body]

Output: George Carlin pretty much completely misses the point here. Rape is never funny. There is nothing funny about it in any context.

Output: You're right man, the Rose Bowl is exactly like the Little Caesars Pizza Bowl.


Input: [Date] 16 weeks 3 days ago [Title] 94 is a technically superior [Body]

Output: 94 is a technically superior game, but I love 93 because it's so easy to exploit this programming glitch to beat the goaltender. Basically, if you approach one of the corners of the net from across the ice and then deke to the opposite side of the net immediately before shooting, you will score every single time. To this day, I'll throw this game in and try to score as many goals as possible. I once scored 106 goals in a game when I put it on 20 minute periods and played as the All Stars West team against San Jose. It was awesome. I felt like the tanks at Tiennamen Square.

Input: [Date] 18 weeks 5 days ago [Title] We Are the World? Really? [Body]

Input: [Date] 12 weeks 14 hours ago [Title] As a counter to this point, [Body]

Output: As a counter to this point, if OP has only seen the 909 and LA, you should at least check out OC before you decide where to live. I lived in Hermosa and loved it but after moving to Newport, I couldn't imagine going back. It's a totally different world, you'll know you've hit OC when traffic eases up, the streets aren't filled with potholes, there aren't old mattresses on the side of the road, and graffiti doesn't cover every sign, overpass, and stray dog. It has some of the safest cities in the country and because there's money and businesses here, the county isn't strapped for cash so we have public services that keep it clean, safe, and usable schools (applicable if you have kids some day). It may not be for everybody (it's not the most diverse) but if you are coming from living in the midwest, it may be a place you feel very comfortable living. There are beautiful areas of LA County - like the South Bay - but you are still brought down by the rest of the county. Also, be prepared to spend most of your life avoiding jury duty and watching out for the county's fundraising team hiding behind signs with radar guns and giving out jaywalking tickets.


Input: [Date] 12 weeks 16 hours ago [Title] You've got the right idea [Body]

Output: You've got the right idea with Pasadena, I think that's easily the most A2 similar place in the LA area. As someone who works in Corona (possibly worse than Chino) and briefly tried living near the office, I know your pain. The good thing is that you are one of the few people to work in the Chino/Corona area so for commuting you have flexibility because you won't have traffic. Fullerton isn't a bad option, not as nice as Pasadena but probably quite a bit cheaper. You could take the 91 west or 57 North and not have traffic. I live in Orange - which also has a college, Chapman, and a nice little downtown called Orange Circle. Not as young as Fullerton but probably cleaner/safer/nicer, at least around the Circle. Has your wife looked at companies in Irvine - I don't know about bio/science jobs - but it seems more likely a company would set up there than LA? If she was there, it opens up the Beach towns, you could get from Newport or Costa Mesa to Chino in 30-40 mins. If you're not a big city person, and are looking for an A2 type experience, I think you'd be much better off with Pasadena than DTLA or the Hollywood area. It's a weekend and you are living in Chino, so you might as well get out of there and explore.


Input: [Date] 1 year 18 weeks ago [Title] Townsend [Body]

Output: The Michigan connection here is Kurtis Townsend. He was an assistant that Ellerbe brought in and he was responsible for some of the shadiest of Michigan recruits (Avery Queen and I believe Ingerson come to mind, probably Gaines). When I noticed him on the Kansas bench last year, it made me think that they must not be a clean program. This post helps clear that up.


Input: [Date] 4 years 32 weeks ago [Title] Having worked in sports, I [Body]

Output: Having worked in sports, I wouldn't worry about getting your degree in Sports Management. The more important thing is that you start volunteering/working in the athletic dept at whatever school you go to (bigger schools are more impressive) and/or for a local pro team. Nobody is going to care what your degree was in but they will be interested in your experience. If you went to Michigan I would actually recommend doing LS&A and taking some marketing classes from the B-School and for fun do a couple Sports Marketing classes in Kines too. The advantage of this approach is you get a broader education that will serve you better if you change career paths and you get real world experience in sports that will better prepare you for it and allow you to start making contacts (ex. the marketing intern at a Michigan will become the Director of Marketing at a MAC school and if you worked with him as a volunteer he may hire you as a marketing assistant at the MAC school when you graduate).


Input: [Date] 4 years 43 weeks ago [Title] Agreed - I'm a Colts fan and [Body]

Output: Agreed - I'm a Colts fan and always enjoy his writing. He is very level-headed and doesn't tend to be overly effusive in his praise, so these comments mean more coming from him than most.


Input: [Date] 4 years 44 weeks ago [Title] How is the U-M crowd at [Body]

Output: How is the U-M crowd at Sangria? Is it a good setup? I don't remember them having a lot of TVs when I've gone out there before at night. Do they set them up in the dance floor area or are they just around the bar? I'm considering heading up there for the MSU game. I live in Newport Beach and have no interest in going inland to Tustin for the official Alumni Club event. The bar I normally go to in Newport, Rudy's, is technically a Michigan State bar, so that could be a good week to check out Hermosa.


Input: [Date] 5 years 9 weeks ago [Title] Your annual law school loan [Body]

Output: Your annual law school loan payment would be more than a compliance job would pay - be prepared to make $30-40k/year. Also, if you couldn't tell by Labadie's responses - all 25 sports and every department - marketing, development, etc - sees you as a hassle and will avoid your voicemails and emails at all costs. It is very fulfilling work.


Input: [Date] 5 years 20 weeks ago [Title] He's got Dwight Freeney's [Body]

Output: He's got Dwight Freeney's uniform # and build - he just needs to develop that inside spin move that Freeney uses because I'm pretty sure he won't be able to throw the tackle to the ground in college. Looks like a good one though - hope he has a good visit.

Output: Would be good if I was German. I saw a Dodge Caravan the other day that someone put one of those D stickers on and then a BMW logo badge over the Chryler one. I don't want to be that German.

Output: Some good ideas there - I'll check on BLOCKM for sure and will think about an A2 one and the other campus references.


Input: [Date] 5 years 23 weeks ago [Title] That's solid. The HL adds [Body]

Output: That's solid. The HL adds some mystery and makes it seem less like you are driving some guy named Victor's car


Input: [Date] 5 years 23 weeks ago [Title] I like it - that's clever. [Body]

Output: I like it - that's clever. My only issue would be the car I'm looking at cost $100k new (depreciation is my friend - its about 1/3 that now) and being a young guy driving it, I'd probably look even more like a spoiled, yuppy douche. In a neighboring state of Michigan it would probably be easier to do, because more people would get the Blue meaning Michigan reference. Here they would just associate it with the expensive car.


Input: [Date] 5 years 23 weeks ago [Title] That could work - I would [Body]

Output: That could work - I would have trouble deciding on the year though. The '01 is probably more significant to me but '09 paid for the car. Maybe UM 01 09 with the space between 01 and 09 being more of a half space.


Input: [Date] 5 years 23 weeks ago [Title] In fairness to Peterson, I [Body]

Output: In fairness to Peterson, I think I recall his dad being in the military or something and they moved frequently which was the main reason for the multiple high schools. He was always very nice, polite, and seemed very quiet in my encounters with him. Again, off the top of my head I think he got booted for being involved in some incident with a stripper in WQ and a fight with a frat. I think his issue was that class had some serious bad seeds - Jason Brooks, Demetrius Smith, Ray Jackson (I think that was his name/he was a FB), and they all lived right near each other in the dorms. I think he was more of a follower that got sucked into trouble. He went on to have a decent and stable NFL career before injury derailed it.

Output: It would be hilarious if that was actually an MSU fan that really hates Tate Forcier

Output: Combining your Victors with a Z and Internet T Guy's Victors with a 1, works - V1CTORZ . My only issue with that is that most people will just think my name is Victor and the z is possessive referring to the car. Still a leading contender though.

Output: DONGPUNCH won't fit but UMBBALL is a synonym for that, right?

Output: Yeah I loved it there - lived on 15th & Hermosa this summer - you could see the ocean from our deck and just open the door and a cool ocean breeze came through the house. Took a job in Irvine though and the hour commute each way was wearing me out. Some day I'll end up back up there.

Output: Clever - but see above. I'd like to get a USC plate and then put some form of CHEATS next to it but don't want some frat boy keying my car.


Input: [Date] 5 years 23 weeks ago [Title] I like it except I think [Body]

Output: I like it except I think we've got enough Spanish out here already. I lived in Hermosa last summer and again for a couple months when I moved back out here. I think it has to be the best place on earth. Newport Beach isn't terrible either, but Hermosa is well, hermosa.


Input: [Date] 5 years 23 weeks ago [Title] I actually had checked [Body]

Output: I actually had checked MGOBLOG - it is available. The problem with having a blog on your license plate is I don't really need any more help not getting laid. Plus Brian would probably get a lot of hate mail when I cut people off on my race to work in the morning. Yes - SoCal is ridiculous, every day I'm amazed that there are people that have lived their whole life with winters like this. I feel cheated out of the first 30 years of my life.

Input: [Date] 2 years 21 weeks ago [Body] i think it would have to be something along the lines of leaving your feet to launch at the other player would be a good determining factor. that plus leading with your head and aiming directly at the opposing player's face. if they went back to actually tackling instead of trying to make EPSN's highlight reel with a big hit, there would be a lot less ambiguity about the call. it would be harder to call it a hit on a defenseless player if you're wrapping your arms around for a tackle rather than just trying to blow the guy up. [Title]

Output: i think it would have to be


Input: [Date] 2 years 21 weeks ago [Body] and i think a lot of this comes from something that drives me crazy as a football fan. basically once a player with the ball gets beyond the linebackers, tackling is no longer involved. how many times do you see DBs shoulder block a guy catching a ball near him, 90+%? if the guys actually wrapped their arms around and tackled i think just that in itself could take away some of the helmet to face you see so much of [Title]

Output: a lot like i tell my daughter


Input: [Date] 2 years 31 weeks ago [Body] as far as sports go The Show is the best baseball game out there. i haven't played this years because i have last years and there really wasn't much new that mattered to me. NHL is always a solid choice as far as sports go as well. like someone said above, Red Dead Redemption can be found in game of the year edition for around $20 and you can waste away so many hours of your life on. this, just like the show, is more so a single player game IMO but NHL is a blast online but has some good offline features as well. [Title]

Output: For sports


Input: [Date] 2 years 32 weeks ago [Body] i'm not going to lie and say that didn't bring a little tear to the eyes. it's great hearing about how these guys who are really still kids themselves putting in the time with kids who i'd imagine just want to forget where they are and why for just a little while. this was a great story about two great people, very nice [Title]

Output: not going to lie


Input: [Date] 2 years 32 weeks ago [Body] i ask because i honestly don't know any better but i looked at dead period and quiet period rules and i didn't see anything regarding statements from the university or anything like that as being a rules violation, only against contact beyond "hello" to recruits. what am i missing as far as any rules being broken? [Title]

Output: i ask because i honestly


Input: [Date] 2 years 35 weeks ago [Body] i don't know if i can go against ND. all season long i've pulled against them and hoped for them to lose, even as recently as last week when it was basically a 3-way tie at the top. BUT, now that it's this week and if ND loses it will in all likelihood be an all SEC NC game again, i'm more so pulling against that than a ND win. i dislike brian kelly and basically the whole ND team but as a college football fan i have gained a lot of respect for Manti Te'o as a football player and as a human this season, so in a way i rationalize it that way i guess. [Title]

Output: i don't know...


Input: [Date] 2 years 36 weeks ago [Body] it's unbelieveable how much they believe it. i talked to a couple last night and one swears about how he knows someone that ran into someone that would know and he said it's a done deal, so it's gotta be the truth. the other tells me about how it was a done deal last week but when you ask why they haven't just come out and said it, this time it's because the MNF deal won't let them announce it until the last monday night game this season, which makes absolutely no sense to at all, but i'm a michigan fan so what do i know. [Title]

Output: it's unbelieveable how much

Output: USA Today is doing their best


Input: [Date] 3 years 26 weeks ago [Body] i'm not so certain i would "vote" for the voiding of a LOI in the event of a coaching change. you hear all the time that players should commit to the school and not the coach, even though you can't blame an 18 yr old kid for getting attached to people that schmooze him and tell him everything he wants to hear for commiting to the coach rather than the school. i think if nothing else any school that's being investigated by the NCAA and there is even a slight possibility there may be a head coaching change coming because of said investigations, it might keep some players available to other schools by knowing that if they sign the LOI and the coach that offered and promised them more than other schools gets canned they're stuck there and won't be so fast to pull the trigger [Title]

Output: i'm not so certain i would


Input: [Date] 3 years 30 weeks ago [Body] I think one other thing that makes a difference is how ESPN likes to tell everyone over and over that the SEC is the best and toughest conference. If you're an 18 yr old kid and you know that you're going to be seen by more people around the country by playing in the SEC because ESPN is going to show the majority of their games and you'll get even more face time on Sportscenter then why wouldn't you want to go there if exposure is one of the big things you're looking for. This I think helps funnel the players to the SEC more so than the other conferences as a whole, perception becomes reality. [Title]

Output: I think one other thing that

Input: [Date] 3 years 33 weeks ago [Body] that stadium is literally less than 10 miles from my house and the field always looks that way. during the summer they use it as a race track and they have demolition derbys and all kinds of what not there that destroys the field. but you're right, you'd think they could do a little more to make the field at least playable on. [Title]

Input: [Date] 3 years 37 weeks ago [Body] bad thing is it probably will happen with how much espn and all the other press and media love them some SEC. i was pissed when alabama and lsu jumped oklahoma despite the sooners not losing or even having close games as far as i recall [Title]

Input: [Date] 3 years 38 weeks ago [Body] i'll take the blame for this one too, i gave up the traditional #1 jersey for a new M hoodie. it was so soft and comforting i couldn't not wear it. the question i have about that is should i have washed it first before wearing the first time, could that have made the difference. it will definately be washed before next saturday and IF i choose to wear it again an M loses, then anyone want a free hoodie?

Input: [Date] 4 years 4 weeks ago [Body] i have played the show since 09 and like you purchased a PS3 specifically for the show. i never really got into the pitching much on the previous versions because i could never truely control where the pitches went, they would be close but consistancy is what frustrated me. the meter pitching is wonderful this year, you have much more control over up, down, left and right with the ball. as others have said, the point system is so much better also. you don't usually rack up 150 points in one game, mostly when hitting, like you could easily do in previous versions but you don't get a fail on certain challenges because of the dumbass computer baserunners, you still get points for good contact, timing and/or working the pitch count. as much as it's still the same game, the minor tweaks were a great improvment. and yes the commentating is terrible as a lot of people say but the have some funny lines every now and then. [Title]

Output: go buy it


Input: [Date] 4 years 11 weeks ago [Body] i always thought that with all the prep work tate did to become a top qb he may have been pretty close to his ceiling as a freshman while denard was so raw his ceiling was so far away. tate was as good as you could have expected as a true freshman but maybe there just wasn't that much room for improvement as far as his capabilities. i still wish the kid well though.

Input: [Date] 2 years 38 weeks ago [Body] In regards to Treadwell, what do you think happens? He's narrowed down to five. He's visited Ole' Miss already & by all accounts hasn't said anything to the effect that they are his leader. MSU has never been talked about as a threat. He has yet to visit OU & OkSU. Where do you think he ends up? Could it be that he doesn't want to pull a Conley/Dawson and wants to take his time with his decision? I'd rather he do that then half-heartedly commit and subsquently break his commitment. I think that we are his leaders and will continue to think that until I see something that truely shows otherwise. [Title]

Input: [Date] 2 years 39 weeks ago [Body] VSB, just observations made by Lorenz and some others. Point being, if Dawson hadn't committed so early before he knew what was out there, we'd def be in the hunt for his services right now. As it is, the team and Dawson have "mutually" parted ways. What LaQuan and Green are doing is better for all parties involved. [Title]

Output: VSB, just observations made


Input: [Date] 2 years 39 weeks ago [Body] I'd rather have Green and Treadwell take their time and be sure about their decision than have a situation like Dawson or potentially Conley. I feel really bad for David as it looks like our staff initiated the split and now, if he decides he doesn't like UF or any other SEC teams the door is no longer open for him. [Title]

Input: [Date] 16 weeks 6 days ago [Title] It would not be a wash for [Body]

Output: It would not be a wash for basketball if Michigan makes a change. A Nike contract would mean increased access to top recruits. Nike probably holds 80% of the market for these top clubs while there are a few who play with Adidas.

A good AAU director knows that to keep his job/money from the top executives, he must continue to feed guys to his sponsor's schools, in this case Adidas ones like M, UCLA, Kansas, etc.

Output: I know this doesn't really have anything to do with the topic, but who is the guy in between Thomas Gordon and DG?


Input: [Date] 2 years 17 weeks ago [Title] It's not the fact that they [Body]

Output: It's not the fact that they play the 2-3 zone that makes them tricky, it's the length of the players in the 2-3 zone. You can simulate that zone all you want in practice, but what makes them so tough is their length affecting passing lanes and causing deflections. Brandon Triche will be the shortest guy on the court for them at 6'4 and their PG stands at 6'6 in Michael Carter Williams. If I could pick one person in the country playing the college game to give Stauskas a run at a 3 point contest it would be James Southerland. If he is on, look out. C.J. Fair is a crafty player who can find a number of ways to score the ball. Keita (6'10) and Christmas (6'9) are their big guys who, once again, affect shots with their length, but both are very raw with their offensive games. It's just gonna come down to what everyone has said as soon as it was known we were advancing to face Syracuse yesterday, we have to make shots and also keep them off the offensive boards so they can't get second chance opportunites. I live on the East Coast, so I have had many opportunites to watch Syracuse play throughout the season, so this is just my non-expert opinion.

Output: He is missing this season due to injury that happened during fall camp.


Input: [Date] 2 years 37 weeks ago [Title] You keep on bringing up [Body]

Output: You keep on bringing up Minnesota's 11th ranked pass D in the country. This is who they played: @UNLV, New Hampshire, Western Michigan, Syracuse, @ Iowa, Northwestern, @ Wisconsin, Purdue, and then us. The best passing offense out of all those is Syracuse. Only two teams out of nine on their schedule so far are in the top 68 in pass offense. Do you wanna know where Minnesota ranks nationally in rush defense? 81st. There's a reason why teams aren't passing on them, and that's because teams are running it on them.


Input: [Date] 2 years 37 weeks ago [Title] I knew as soon as DG started [Body]

Output: I knew as soon as DG started to perform well this past Saturday that people would start questioning Denard starting at quarterback ever again and it made me want to crawl in a hole. Devin playing well is spectacular. What that means however is that we now know we have a more than adequate backup behind Denard and then more than likely he will be the quarterback full time in 2013. Enjoy DG's performance, please. But don't question one of the all time greats of Michigan.


Input: [Date] 2 years 38 weeks ago [Title] He makes a harder kick when [Body]

Output: He makes a harder kick when he just missed the easier kick less than 10 minutes ago. Makes sense.

Output: I really hope that sparks Fitz for the rest of the season.


Input: [Date] 24 weeks 2 days ago [Title] Less commercials (in stadium) [Body]

Output: I think that instead of trying to find ways to shorten the game such as the running clock after 1st downs (or when players go out of bounds), they should instead find a way to make the game shorter for those who are watching it in the stadium. Fans at the stadium aren't watching the commercials that the broadcasts are showing to those at home, so why have them at all? Instead you could make the in-stadium experience like watching a game on a DVR. - Start the in-stadium and tv broadcast at the same time - Every time tv takes a timeout for commercials, don't take that timeout in the stadium and just continue playing - After the commercial break concludes, the tv wouldn't miss any of the action, they would just broadcast the game as if it were being tape delayed slightly by the length of the commercial break. One of the benefits is that it would create a premium for going to the game (and by their rationale, increase attendance since the at home experience would be a moderately diminished product) -- you would truly be witnessing every event live while the tv action may be behind by 5 minutes by the end of the 1st quarter, 10 minutes by half, etc. The networks may not buy it, but it's overdue for them to throw a bone to the people actually at the games.


Input: [Date] 1 year 21 weeks ago [Title] Moya [Body]

Output: I went down to the Dominican Republic 2 years ago for a bit of a "beisbol" expedition to see the Caribbean Series and by luck also had the chance to check out the Tigers training center outside of the baseball hotbed town of San Pedro de Macoris. At 6'6" Moya looked like a man among boys out there with left-handed power and a great arm. The coaches down there were really high on him and thought he had the raw tools to make an impact in the majors someday. I've tracked his career a bit since...he was in Lakeland last year, but has some holes in his swing at this point (106k's in 93 games), but he's only 22 at this point, so still plenty to develop. I will say, if you love baseball and are a bit adventurous, a trip to a baseball-crazy country like the Dominican is worth it...you can't go too far on the island without seeing kids playing baseball with whatever they can find even if it's just a stick and bottlecap. It's fantastic! That being said, Lakeland is also great and a must-visit for Tigers fans.


Input: [Date] 1 year 25 weeks ago [Title] Benefits of season tickets? [Body]

Output: I'd add that a Jerry Jones money grab is also very short sighted in that it further erodes the benefit of purchasing season tickets. As was outlined a few weeks back when Seat "Donations" were due, many in the fanbase are at a tipping point with the price vs. value in purchasing season tickets when you take per game ticket cost + PSD's into account. If the trend is for more premium games to be played in neutral sites like the Alabama and now Florida games...what is the benefit to me as a season ticket holder? Wouldn't you want to award your most loyal fans with a top notch game that helps to justify the costs they are paying for our seats? It's not like our PSD's go down if we play 1 less home game...in effect it's a per-game increase in prices for us to most likely stay at home and watch Michigan and Florida on tv hundreds of miles away in a soulless pro stadium.


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

Output: A few interesting/fun facts around that game: - If Minnesota had won that game (and the rest of the season played out as it did), they would have gone to the Rose Bowl by way of a 4 way tie atop the standings (M, OSU, Purdue and Minnesota all would have had 2 losses in conference). The Gophers didn't play OSU and Purdue that year and by way of the fact that they hadn't been to the Rose Bowl the longest, they would have gone. - Although the game was moved to Friday to accommodate the Twins potential ALCS games, the Twins were eliminated earlier in the week in the ALDS, but of course, tv and travel had already been set, so the dome would have been available on Saturday after all. - I believe MVictors had this a few years back, but Bill Martin was so upset that they had to move the game to Friday night that he wrote the Minnesota AD a check for them to build an on-campus stadium.


Input: [Date] 3 years 8 weeks ago [Title] 39 = 27? [Body]

Output: This is well said and exactly what I was thinking. Beyond that, OSU needs more money because they have an incredible 39(!) varsity sports compared to Michigan's 27, so OSU needs to rely a lot more heavily on its football (and basketball) ticket revenue to fund the 12 extra sports budgets, scholarships, coaches salaries, etc. This is not a 1:1 correlation and Brandon is just searching for an excuse to raise prices again once another "premium" football season comes along next year with ND, Nebraska and OSU come to town. Regardless, I have resigned myself that college and pro sports are working their way to pricing fans out...it just depends on when the tipping point happens, but it's just dangerous to keep pushing yourself until you find out when you get there.


Input: [Date] 3 years 12 weeks ago [Title] To be fair, I'm never quite [Body]

Output: To be fair, I'm never quite sure how much influence that the Athletic Department has on these things. I mean, they do sign off on them, but I always felt that it's adidas that comes to them with all of the concepts. That's the only way some of these could ever see the light of day. That blue one, with all of the adidas 3-stripes everwhere is just a walking billboard for the company. I doubt I will ever buy any adidas apparel as long as they have the contract; they just don't get the Michigan brand at all.

Output: I have a family friend who had a son that decided to go to MSU and the Dad refused to write the checks to the school out of principle. I figure that you have to appreciate someone who has such an unwavering moral compass that he is able to stand up for what he believes in regardless of the circumstances.


Input: [Date] 3 years 43 weeks ago [Title] As of 2010- "In discussions" to return... [Body]

Output: I read an article from the Slippery Rock athletics website that was written about the members of their team who came to the Wisconsin game last year and the article said: "The salute to SRU was the brainchild of UM Director of Athletics Dave Brandon, who has revived the tradition of announcing Rock football scores during Michigan home games. A special hooded sweatshirt with The Rock logo emblazoned in UM's Maize and Blue colors is also on sale through one of Michigan's licensed vendors. Brandon has also initiated discussions about The Rock returning to The Big House to play a game, according to Lueken." The entire article is here: http://www.rockathletics.com/news/2010/11/22/FB_1122101637.aspx

Input: [Date] 4 years 21 weeks ago [Title] As it is, we are at the [Body]

Output: As it is, we are at the critical mass of bowl games where there are barely enough eligible teams to meet the number of slots. Last year, only 2 schools (Temple and Western Michigan) were bowl eligible, but weren't invited to a game (Western, probably because of their poor attendance figures the previous year as Brian had mentioned). All it would have taken would be for 3 schools to decline an invite based on financial considerations and these ridiculous ticket limits would have been front and center as one bowl would either have to back off on its ticket/hotel guarantees, or force the prospect of folding a few weeks before the game. As Zone Left noted, the real issue is that the power conferences need to take a stand and prior to signing agreements with these games, they need to force a removal of these guarantees. As expansion consolidates more power to a few major conferences, one would think that a greater degree of leverage would follow because the drawing power of Big Ten bowl slot #5 is far greater than most of what the ACC, Big East, etc. can bring to the table.


Input: [Date] 4 years 22 weeks ago [Title] Old v. New [Body]

Output: Outside of Mattison, the difference isn't that great between what the previous assistants were making and the new staff. Assuming Hoke gets $1.5M, the difference between the total staff salaries would probably be rather negligible. For the record, the top 3 assistants on Rich's staff were: C. Magee - $285k G. Robinson - $273k T. Gibson - 224.7k The rest of the coaches were getting about ~$185k except for Braithwaite at $135k, but you can see these (and the rest of your favorite Athletic Department personnel) here: http://www.umsalary.info/deptsearch.php?Dept=Athletics&Year=0&Campus=


Input: [Date] 4 years 23 weeks ago [Title] Did anyone else notice how [Body]

Output: Did anyone else notice how Groupon incorrectly lists the gametime as 5:30 instead of 6:30? Of course for Groupon HQ and other fellow Chicagoans like myself the tip is 5:30 Central, but last I checked Ann Arbor didn't fall into the CST. Looks like the new CMO is at work trying to look for creative ways to fill up Crisler. As mentioned above, it's the same deal through the AD, but it does hit a different demographic of people not privvy to the Athletic Department's original messaging.


Input: [Date] 4 years 27 weeks ago [Title] This just reminds me of the [Body]

Output: This just reminds me of the time when George bought John Voight's car. I'm sure Jerry spells his name with a "G" occasionally just for fun.
