Input: [Date] 1 day 19 hours ago [Title] The thing that excites me is [Body]

Output: The thing that excites me is that we have so many players with a ton of undeveloped potential at nearly every position that this team is a complete mystery. With this coaching staff and their ability to develop talent from that potential (as shown historically), this team has... Well... A lot of potential. I really do think that Michigan is the perfect sleeper team. May struggle early but I expect things to click more and more each game, and it should be fun to watch.

Output: Yeah, but were you high?


Input: [Date] 3 days 13 hours ago [Title] I understand the whole no [Body]

Output: I understand the whole no spiritual crap, but I do have to make one comment. If you don't believe in Christianity or what it's founded on, that's your deal and that's fine. But your comment tells me you completely misinterpret the reasoning behind the "mission." The act of "converting" someone to Christianity is a completely selfless act of service that is only attempted because of a general care for people; it has everything to do with the belief of what happens to those who don't follow Christianity - an act of love for people. And the "medical missions" are done for people regardless if they convert or not - it is not a requirement to sign on the dotted line seal it with blood in order to receive care. It is an act of service, again because of a care for the well being of others. There are bad apples in every social/spiritual group (even among Michigan fans), so don't assume every Christian or Christian act of service is littered in selfishness. Again, I respect your beliefs or lack of Christian belief, but you don't have to be a Christian to appreciate what Tebow did there in Indonesia. Mods, I apologize for the addition to the "no religion" policy. But I ask if you remove my comment then please remove his as well.

Output: Might as well turn this into another Rashan Gary meltdown thread.


Input: [Date] 4 days 12 hours ago [Title] Holy moly you guys. It was [Body]

Output: Holy moly you guys. It was already known that he had a conflict with his SAT prep class that might prevent him from coming. That in itself told me he probably wasn't coming because those things don't tend to reschedule themselves because of a recruiting event for one student. The overreaction on this board is strong with this one. It's a freakin BBQ, not like he burned his Michigan gear or cancelled his official visit. Good grief.

Output: How do you know that heaven won't provide an unlimited supply of beer? And heaven beer at that.


Input: [Date] 2 weeks 9 hours ago [Title] In my personal opinion, we [Body]

Output: In my personal opinion, we can think what we want to think and judge past performance to come up with an answer, but with this coaching staff it is a completely new ball game. I don't think there's any way to have a clue as to who will start in the fall. Completely new coaching staff. New offensive to learn. And what I'm assuming is a lot more teaching to be had. Any one of these guys could all of a sudden "get it" and end up the starter. Last years performances may have had more to do with the coaching than the talent, and I think we will figure that all out once we see who is on top and how they perform. This is the cop out answer if anyone wants to join me.


Input: [Date] 2 weeks 4 days ago [Title] What if it is both [Body]

Output: What if it is both a chupacabra and a hairless coon at the same time? In other words... Chupacabra = Hairless Coon....? The legend of the Chupacabra is actually the legend of the Hairless Coon? Neg me if this is stupid, but I feel like the point is being missed.

Input: [Date] 3 weeks 2 days ago [Title] Where did he go? [Body]

Output: Where did he go? Edit: And now that I think about it, is it possible that the Koala is the Beet Farmer reincarnated? One seemed to vanish around the same time the other "appeared."

Input: [Date] 4 weeks 1 day ago [Title] Even if he doesn't beat out [Body]

Output: Even if he doesn't beat out Rudock, he still had a great shot to play the next season. We do, however, have a lot of potential at the QB position and no doubt do I think we will be good at the position for a long time coming under Harbaugh starting at the latest next season. Whether it's Morris or Gentry or any of the 100 QBs under the roster, one of those guys is going to hit their potential.


Input: [Date] 4 weeks 5 days ago [Title] Yeah, but then thee whole 30 [Body]

Output: Yeah, but then thee whole 30 commits in a month thing happened, so who knows what's going on anymore.


Input: [Date] 5 weeks 1 day ago [Title] I personally feel that if [Body]

Output: I personally feel that if anyone has an opinion to make on a player on the board (who isn't paid to contribute) it's probably you mostly because you are a professional evaluator. It's just this attitude on these guys is way too pessimistic in general, and too many assumptions are made off of a star rating. In general I agree with what the ranking systems are for and I'd be an idiot if I said I wouldn't be more excited about a five/four star guy with a buttload of offers over a sleeper that came from nowhere; however, we need to trust Harbaigh on the guys we are recruiting a LITTLE BIT more than we are as a whole at the moment.


Input: [Date] 5 weeks 2 days ago [Title] Sometimes it feels as if we [Body]

Output: Sometimes it feels as if we believe Harbaugh is a terrible evaluator solely because the guys he picks up are either ranked as a generic two star or unranked. Seriously? One of the guys gets bumped to a three star and we have to assume he isn't even that quality of a recruit? You guys need to start taking anti-depressants or something.

Output: That's quite a lot of Johnson's. Never seen so many Johnson's.


Input: [Date] 5 weeks 3 days ago [Title] You wouldn't be referring [Body]

Output: You wouldn't be referring to Jabrill Peppers now would you? I think there was some hints that at least he was going to get some exposure to the offense, and potentially make a "surprise" showing in the Spring game, but that obviously never happened. Based off of the conclusion from this discussion alone, I would be shocked if he didn't get AT LEAST a few reps a game in the offense. Harbaugh is known to not shy away from letting guys play on both sides of the ball, and this is probably the biggest weapon he's ever had with those capabilites. Personally, I believe if you throw Peppers on the offense a decent amount, you can make a capable offense very explosive and exciting in a hurry.


Input: [Date] 5 weeks 4 days ago [Title] Well apparently Koalas are [Body]

Output: Well apparently Koalas are good for that as well, so you don't necessarily need to get married to enjoy that particular benefit. Although I'm not sure that's a safer option. Tough debate.

Output: Edit: /s Sarcasm meter is off too often I have learned.

Output: Must be silent commits otherwise Harbaugh wouldn't be so confident.


Input: [Date] 5 weeks 4 days ago [Title] This is pretty much what I [Body]

Output: This is pretty much what I was getting to above, which was probably after your post. Literally makes no sense if he changed his mind like his father claims.


Input: [Date] 5 weeks 4 days ago [Title] I don't understand how you [Body]

Output: I don't understand how you can be that "committed" to a program with seven months to go until signing day when you change your mind the day before you "commit." Good luck to him and everything, but he made the announcement about the announcement prior to him "deciding" to go to Alabama if his father is correct based off that quote. Just makes no sense to me. These are the kind of things that might happen when you are forced to make a decision because it's time sensitive, not something you do seven months prior to your deadline. Color me skeptical, but again, good luck to him whatever he does.

Output: I agree with Cutler. I never really liked him as a player, but that's mostly because I don't understand him. I give him a lot if props for helping out with this camp. I think of all the quarterbacks, he is probably the most random so there must be something to be said for that.

Output: Ben Roethlisberger... But faster?


Input: [Date] 6 weeks 1 day ago [Title] There are a few record labels [Body]

Output: There are a few record labels where I tend to like most of the artists signed by them. One of them in particular releases full album playlists for much of the music produced under their label on YouTube, and I have found and purchased a lot of good music because of the free resource that was provided for my use. This would be an effective way for small bands to get their music out there and in turn bring additional profits by being more exposed. YouTube is not the end all be all for me for music, so obviously I still am in need of another outlet to listen to their music via other devices. Because of this, I am more likely to purchase their music. Smaller bands and artists that don't get the radio play need a way for listeners to find them, and there are plenty of "free" tools out there to do that. When you go and rip their music for free, yes you may end up going to a concert some day or buy a shirt another, but you no longer need another means of listening which would reinforce spending money to support them since you already have a physical copy. So while ripping music may in fact help bring money into artists pockets by allowing them to gain more of a following and such, they still have that opportunity with all these other free media outlets available online that don't provide you with an actual physical/digital copy of their music. It would benefit them more if they were discovered using those outlets rather than just having their music "ripped" because there's still the need of purchase.

Output: A few things can be learned. 1) The names of ten quarterbacks attending the camp 2) Jersey numbers of said quarterbacks 3) Stats will be posted on the jumbotron 4) The camp is being held at The Big House 5) There are pods, and apparently more than one 6) There seems to be more than one attendee wearing camo shorts 7) The Aerial Assault QB camp is not a myth That is all I can come up with at the moment.

Output: The IMDB of Michigan sports statistics and player/coach biographies. There is definitely potential for that, and currently I'm pretty sure WD is the only person out there with the information already in hand. MAKE IT HAPPEN WD. It's your destiny.


Input: [Date] 6 weeks 3 days ago [Title] But these once again are all [Body]

Output: But these once again are all FINAL RANKINGS. Half of the "two stars" Harbaugh has picked up lately haven't even been partially evaluated. If you recall, Canteen and Brandon Watson had similar rankings a couple years back until they were finally evaluated later on. Canteen turned out to be a solid four star composite and Watson a high three star composite. Wait until these guys get fully evaluated before you crash all over Harbaugh's recruiting strategy. And while I understand that you used the appropriate tools to validate an argument and were a lot less distasteful and much more subtle about it, this collection of thoughts needs to be put aside for down the road as a whole. Way too many people up in arms about the whole thing right now.

Output: Trio of Floridians from the same school, two of which were committed to other schools, took the trip to Ann Arbor together. All three at the end of the visit had offers, and the two that were committed two other schools (Metellus being one of them) decommitted the other day from said schools. Therefore, two more to go.

Output: Video /= Generic 3* Those of you who are boo hooing over this guy because of his rating need to watch his video, otherwise you're making yourself look kinda dumb... Love this pick-up. I'll be shocked if he doesn't get a large bump based off what I'm hearing from the camp circuit as well as the highlights I just watched. Dude can play.


Input: [Date] 7 weeks 13 hours ago [Title] I thought the common thread [Body]

Output: I thought the common thread with these guys is that they are smart AND athletic. This kinda crap gets said after every three star or lower commits to any major UM sport. Have we not leaned to shut our traps until we see how things trend? These guys will all get heavily scouted now that they've committed to the most talked about coach in the sport. There is no doubt in my mind that there will be a few four stars out of these guys Harbaugh is pulling in from these camps as underrated recruits. We all love the starz; we all understand where you are coming from. Any of us who are saying you unbelievers need to shut it, we aren't saying that starz/more skilled players don't matter. We are just saying that before you believe he's recruiting a MAC team, wait for the final rankings to come out once the class is full and signed. Watch some of these guys get the bumps they are going to get, and then you will all be at much greater ease.

Output: Oh my gosh I'm crying from laughing so hard. Love you WD, but this is one of the best board posts of the year.


Input: [Date] 7 weeks 2 days ago [Title] OK so I made an idiot [Body]

Output: OK so I made an idiot statement that I questioned prior to posting anyway mostly because of the "RR" QB controversy and the fact that I knew getting most UM fans in a penis measuring contest will never go well. Cousins was not a bad college quarterback. That is the only statement I'm trying to make. If he was bad, he wouldn't have NFL starts to his name THREE YEARS INTO HIS PRO CAREER even if there wasn't much ahead/behind him. Bad quarterbacks also don't get drafted in the fourth round. I'm done talking now. Neg away/Harbaugh.


Input: [Date] 7 weeks 2 days ago [Title] My point was that he's in the [Body]

Output: My point was that he's in the NFL and is actually playing snaps. There were a few times even I thought of picking him up off waivers for my fantasy team because he was putting up pretty decent numbers while he was starting. If he wasn't a good quarterback, he wouldn't be in the NFL at all. Plenty of good college quarterbacks don't make it/transition to the NFL. He's no worse than Chad Henne at this point, and I don't think we would say that Chad Henne was a bad college quarterback. I just feel that sometimes our homerism gets the best of us at times.


Input: [Date] 7 weeks 2 days ago [Title] Sounds like the perfect time [Body]

Output: Sounds like the perfect time to cash in...


Input: [Date] 7 weeks 3 days ago [Title] Yet Cousins has more NFL reps [Body]

Output: Yet Cousins has more NFL reps in his currently short NFL career than every Michigan QB in the last 20 yrs minus a constantly struggling Henne and, well, Brady. I think Cousins has at least proven himself to be a pretty dang good QB with Cook yet to get his chance. Just to clarify, I dislike State as much as the next UM fan.


Input: [Date] 7 weeks 5 days ago [Title] I'm assuming that there's [Body]

Output: I'm assuming that there's still the possibility of other grad transfers to enter the fold... correct? Probably a dumb question, but I'd rather look dumb and have the answer than wait for another month for nothing just because I'm an idiot.


Input: [Date] 7 weeks 5 days ago [Title] Some would say that [Body]

Output: Some would say that oversigning is a lazy way for being a good talent evaluator.

Input: [Date] 8 weeks 3 hours ago [Title] So sorry for your loss, man. [Body]

Output: So sorry for your loss, man. Cancer sucks real hard. Lost an uncle and recently my mother went into remission from breast cancer. You are most definitely not alone in your suffering, and sometimes that is the most reassuring thing when dealing with something like this. There are plenty of mgoblogger's who have dealt with that same tragedy as well as people all around you. God bless you and your family, and my thoughts and prayers are with you.

Input: [Date] 10 weeks 4 days ago [Title] /Poke Poke Poke Poke PokeOne [Body]

Output: /Poke Poke Poke Poke Poke One and dones are still going to be one and dones, but more than likely overseas. I'm not sure why a kid would go to school for a semester just to jump right to the NBA, but there probably would be one or two - It is more likely they just train for a year instead. THEN there will be a buttload of kids that only play one year instead of two or two years instead of three. I'm not sure how that does anything but seriously damage the athletic programs, even if the focus is meant to be on education first. FINALLY, it has been said all over within these discussions that the freshmen would still be participating in practices and scrimmages and more than likely attend games. The NCAA would essentially have to ban all "redshirted" players from attending certain meetings/practices or limit their time schedules dedicated to their athletic progression in order to get some sort of academic benefit out of this. And if they do that, how does that help the kid out if his goal is to play in the NBA? You're limiting the "athlete's" progression and in turn hurting their futures as NBA prospects. This MAY even deter some of them from attending school and push them towards a short-term international career before shooting for the NBA as well; I'm not sure how this helps these kids academically. The kids that want to be in school will be in school, so they don't need a redshirt year if they have the ability to play and still plan to focus on their academics - Not only will you be hurting these kids but the athletic programs that are in need of immediate help. More than likely if the NCAA opens this back up, you will probably see the NBA react within a year or two by allowing players to play right out of high school (ala MLB), which will be silmilar to back in the Kobe/Lebron days where there was a flood of kids headed for the NBA before attending a college course. INSTEAD, the flood will be even greater and create an even larger issue because of the "redshirt" year requirement. These are my thoughts at least.


Input: [Date] 10 weeks 4 days ago [Title] Yeah, but not paid for by [Body]

Output: Are you sure you finished your degree?


Input: [Date] 11 weeks 21 hours ago [Title] These kind of actions [Body]

Output: These kind of actions represent more of the "little brother" persona than the "big brother" persona. If anything we should be doing whatever the heck we want because we are "big brother", and if "little brother" has a problem with it then let them be the ones to change to further disassociate themselves with "big brother."


Input: [Date] 11 weeks 3 days ago [Title] I'm 30 and haven't attended a [Body]

Output: I'm 30 and haven't attended a class in like 7 years and I still get those dreams. Difference is now all I have to do is remember that classes are over so I can find immediate relief instead of checking my schedule over and over again just to make sure I have it right for the thousandth time.


Input: [Date] 11 weeks 3 days ago [Title] If there's one thing I've [Body]

Output: If there's one thing I've learned in life it's that sometimes it takes the lowest of lows to change lives for the best. Hope he comes out of this situation on top like I've seen happen so many times. Thoughts and prayers are with him.

Output: I'm not a cub (that I know of), and I don't even know what a cub is other than a child bear or a Chicago Cub. Nevertheless, I will upvote you because apparently anything with "Cub" now must be upvoted.

Input: [Date] 12 weeks 5 days ago [Title] I think I'm going to move on from this one. [Body]

Output: I think I'm going to move on from this one. I hope Frank Clark learns from the situation and makes the best out of the opportunities he has from here on forward.


Input: [Date] 12 weeks 5 days ago [Title] I hear what you're saying, [Body]

Output: I hear what you're saying, man. I really think this would have came up regardless of who drafted him and what round he was drafted. I don't think drafting Frank Clark and giving him a chance to play was the problem, but perhaps the interview just seemed off and drew bad press because of what came out of it. Nothing needed to be said in this situation besides "we did our research." Leave it at that. On a side note, didn't I read not too long ago that Frank Clark was speaking in schools about domestic violence?

Output: You don't by chance do offshore fishing much do you? I recently got into buying/selling fishing gear to help pay for my hobby, and I'd love to do some marlin fishing sometime down there. I personally am fascinated by the lure developers from the Islands - some of the best offshore fishing gear from around the world resides there. I sell a ton of my stuff to Maui and the surrounding islands. Looking forward to the day I make that trip!

Input: [Date] 13 weeks 6 days ago [Title] It's not difficult at all for [Body]

Output: It's not difficult at all for most of us, but for some of us it's not quite so simple. It's easy to think logically in your own mind, but for some logic is misconstrued and addictions and psychological differences make it difficult for them to make positive life choices on a consistent basis. You do realize that ONE poor decision resulted in these consequences. One bad day. One terrible decision. There may have been another incident in the past, but this is the choice that resulted in him being dismissed. I may not struggle with a violent past where it is difficult to control my "violent" behaviors, but I do have my own daily battles because of both my encounters and poor past decisions. It doesn't matter what society perceives those battles as in comparison to others struggles, it is still a psychological battle to deal with those struggles and not falter. I imagine it is the same for most of us - we have our evils and things we try to improve upon ourselves every day. Last thing I will say is that the best thing you can do when you do make those big mistakes is not only learn from them but teach others about how to avoid those situations and how to be more aware of those things - if you help prevent one person from making those same mistakes, then you have turned a negative into a positive. I am glad to see that Frank Clark has started this process. End of book.


Input: [Date] 14 weeks 4 days ago [Title] The only reason I think we [Body]

Output: The only reason I think we wouldn't be is because of last years cluster. Analysts in general don't pay a whole lot of attention to the "injury bugs" and probably would assume a normal projection due to gained experience. I think we will be at the bottom of the top 25 without him and around 10-15 with him in the fold, but my guess is with the lineup that will be put on the floor with him (and a bit of an unknown in Wagner) that we will probably surprise most people. I guess what I'm saying is that I agree with you, but I fully expect this team to be on some analysts final four boards at the end of the season. Again, this is WITH Brown. However, I still think we could breach that status with Williams instead of Brown. I'm going to be super pumped about that kid as well if we snag him instead of Brown. Elite shooter = Beilein magic.

Input: [Date] 15 weeks 2 days ago [Title] Something tells me he is [Body]

Output: Something tells me he is still growing into his body physically, and there's a lot of "expected projection" with this offer. Didn't the same thing happen with Teske who is now a unanimous four star still on the rise? I understand everyone's "freak out" with this pick-up, but 2016 is still a long ways away. This kid could be just on the verge of turning the corner as he's still developing that big body, and we could be extremely pumped about him in a year. I'm doing a wait and see with this guy. Sounds like he's about to blow up, so I'm not too worried yet.


Input: [Date] 15 weeks 5 days ago [Title] I'm going to go a bit out of [Body]

Output: I'm going to go a bit out of most people's league here... Yojimbo/Sanjuro (For which at least part of The Man With No Name trilogy was based off of) - AKIRA KUROSAWA is the man. The Revenge Trilogy - The most well known of the three is Oldboy. Not necessarily a trilogy that has a lot of rewatchability. Of course to appreciate these, you have to not mind reading your movies.


Input: [Date] 15 weeks 5 days ago [Title] +1 for being the first post [Body]

Output: +1 for being the first post that made me scroll back up to make sure I read that right.

Output: I assumed it wouldn't be long for this scenario to go down, but I felt it was worth the attempt.

Output: Goosebumps. Never before has special teams been more interesting in my life.


Input: [Date] 19 weeks 5 days ago [Title] I know I shoukd know this [Body]

Output: I know I should know this being that I consider myself a devout fan of basketball, but what happens if the inbounds dude throws a full counter and makes it? I fully believe they would discount it, but it would be more entertaining to allow the basket to count with no time coming off the clock. In fact, go ahead and give them a free shot at it with the consequence being, well... You lose.


Input: [Date] 19 weeks 5 days ago [Title] The problem is... We [Body]

Output: The problem is... We absolutely have no clue what his ceiling is, so there's no point in debating it. He could end up better than Kovacs (I doubt Kovacs was/will be the best walk-on that ever played football), or he could never play a snap. We just don't know. I know that with Harbaugh's help he is probably more likely to hit his ceiling than with most coaches.


Input: [Date] 20 weeks 2 days ago [Title] I liked bugs better. [Body]

Output: I liked bugs better.


Input: [Date] 20 weeks 2 days ago [Title] Holy insane depth, Batman. [Body]

Output: Holy insane depth, Batman. First ever for Beilein at Michigan? Yes, believe so. Even in our most recent great years, our good depth was 7/8 strong.. so this heavily trumps that. I really wouldn't be surprised to see some early entry NBA guys next year from this lineup... Potential for Levert, Irvin and Walton. If Irvin plays like he has the last few weeks all season long, there will be some definite chatter with him. Walton was on the board before he got hurt and his play suffered from it. And Dawkins, man... I'm not going to say it wont happen.


Input: [Date] 20 weeks 3 days ago [Title] Sometimes I wonder how many [Body]

Output: Sometimes I wonder how many of us on this board, especially those that tend to be more critical of others and their mistakes, have littered themselves with poor decisions that they try to hide (expecially from themselves). The truth of the matter is that there isn't one individual on this planet that hasn't made a regrettable mistake in their lives and hasn't faced adversity. David Harrison is doing everything he can to provide for his family and survive, and props to him for learning from his mistakes and trying to better himself with the situation he's currently in. It's easy for us to feel sorry for ourselves and sulk in our adversity and get nowhere. This man is facing it and trying to figure out how he can overcome it in order to support those he's responsible for. In no way is this funny. From someone who has learned from his own past mistakes and thankfully been able to learn from them and in turn been blessed from that wisdom, I seriously hope David figures out how to turn that intelligence of his into something that will help bring him the success and fulfillment he desires. He has obviously matured, and because of that he deserves a shot at fulfillment.


Input: [Date] 20 weeks 3 days ago [Title] Walton > Spike... when [Body]

Output: Walton > Spike... when healthy. Even when he's not, he still showcases skills that Spike just doesn't have. Spike is a better pure point guard, but we have also learned that Beilein's teams thrive with a skilled athletic point guard. I guess the better way of putting it is that in no way should Spike ever supplant Walton as the starter where Walton is forced to sit on the bench. He was incredible as a developing freshman, and he has the potential to be an NBA draft pick if he's allowed to showcase that development when healthy next year. He was a projected pick this past year until he got hurt, and this is a guy that should only help is status with another year. Walton is going to be phenomenal for us next year, and I can't wait to see the development of this team with a healthy Walton and potential Levert return, not to mention Duncan Robinson and the possibility of getting this overseas kid. We seriously have a chance to be an incredibily special team again next year. And with the projection that Dawkins is currently on, I would not be surprised to see him blow up next year. Like gone to NBA ala Burke/Stauskas blow up. This year's team is fun to watch, but next year's has the potential to be extremely fun.


Input: [Date] 21 weeks 6 days ago [Title] One who requests their [Body]

Output: One who requests their mother-in-law to take the shot is obviously not expecting a monetary return on investment...


Input: [Date] 22 weeks 22 hours ago [Title] I see what you're saying, and [Body]

Output: I see what you're saying, and I agree with a lot of it. However, there are still a lot of kids that want to make their college choice prior to their senior year, and that number seems to continually grow year after year. Some schools just have to be crossed off the list because of the fact that they can't afford to visit (especially with family). I think that the kids who want to see that gameday atmosphere and make those late decisions are still going to do that whether or not they have the opportunity to check out the campus on an official before their senior season. I don't think the timelines for a decision of many recruits will actually change much with earlier official visits, but it will give recruits and their families who want to make those earlier decisions a real good look at the schools they are truly interested in no matter the required distance traveled. Some families have the money to do those things on their own, and some don't.

Output: Maybe he's just a little crabby...


Input: [Date] 22 weeks 1 day ago [Title] To be fair, he said the style [Body]

Output: To be fair, he said the style and intensity of practice was similar to Bama's, not the quality of play.

Input: [Date] 23 weeks 18 hours ago [Title] There is no player I love [Body]

Output: There is no player I love watching make a great play more than Chatman. Hope he makes more plays like that and shuts all you naysayers up. Great win, fellas. Great win.


Input: [Date] 23 weeks 1 day ago [Title] Just because he doesn't go to [Body]

Output: Just because he doesn't go to school there doesn't mean he can't love the school. I've never stepped foot in Ann Arbor (nor the state of Michigan for that matter), but I would still call myself a diehard. Yes, he's extreme about his diehardism, but just because he didn't attend a UM class doesn't mean he should straight cut down the extremities and became a "normal" UM fan. He can't change who he is, and I'm totally fine with that. It's his life to live not ours.


Input: [Date] 23 weeks 1 day ago [Title] Yeah, well I enjoy reading [Body]

Output: Yeah, well I enjoy reading WD's story more than yours, so WD wins.


Input: [Date] 23 weeks 2 days ago [Title] To your point, I think that [Body]

Output: To your point, I think that if he is successful in the NFL... people will forget their lasting views of him at Michigan. The truth of the matter is that the offensive gameplan did not put him in a position to kill it on the field. Maybe he didn't make the most out of every opportunity, but look at Devin Gardners numbers and tell me Funchess was going to have elite WR numbers even if he did catch every ball. The passing game was terrible, and this wasn't either of the Devin's fault. Coaching, man.


Input: [Date] 23 weeks 2 days ago [Title] I'm sorry, but Frank Clark [Body]

Output: I'm sorry, but Frank Clark was much better than an "above average athlete." I had no doubts about him getting drafted until that incident. He seemed to me to be another player that underperformed his skills, much like Funchess. I wouldn't have been surprised to see him snagged in the third round prior to what happened, and I fully expect him still to be grabbed by someone, undrafted or not, and make an NFL roster if he can stay out of trouble. Not just make the roster, but play some significant minutes in his career. He has plenty of "can't teach" immeasureables that will do him a lot of good with proper discipline and coaching.


Input: [Date] 23 weeks 3 days ago [Title] All I know is there's a lot [Body]

Output: All I know is there's a lot "ifs" with this current team. I do think we are close to turning the corner, but a lot if development needs to be made with a lot of players in order for this team to play for the B1G title next year (with or without Caris). The one thing we know for sure is that a healthy Walton Jr will be am excellent improvement at the PG position, but I think that's the only for sure expectation as far as improvement goes. I do think MAAR and Dawkins will make that leap forward and turn into excellent players, but I'm really curious to see how Chapman and DJ Wilson look next year. I think Chapman will be better than most expect, but Wilson is a complete unknown with him barely playing this year - it may have hurt his projected development. Either way, I think next year will be a fun and exciting team to watch again. I don't expect to pick up any high level recruits being that it looks like we may get one with few options; therefore, I don't expect any real new faces that could instantly impact the team in a positive way. Duncan Robinson should provide excellent shooting, but his complete impact is entirely unknown as well. All that being said, definite improvement next year, but the extent is extremely up in the air. Player development may have never been more inportant given our current youth.


Input: [Date] 23 weeks 3 days ago [Title] McGary will play both the 4 [Body]

Output: McGary will play both the 4 and 5. They lost Perkins, so it won't take too much away from him. He's already shown his skills in OKC so they'll find some time for him. Next season will be very interesting. He will probably take more from Collison as he moves toward old man status.


Input: [Date] 23 weeks 4 days ago [Title] Yeah, well I posted your mom [Body]

Output: Yeah, well I posted your mom earlier too. Oooooooooooo


Input: [Date] 24 weeks 1 day ago [Title] I don't know about you, but [Body]

Output: I don't know about you, but when I'm pumped about something going on in my life, I sure as heck don't mind me talking about it if someone asks me to. Getting to speak about one of your ultimate passions in life is something that is hard to turn down. Plus, these guys have a history with each other while he coached the Niners - They know each other. If you listened, even his wife addressed Tim as if she's cooked a meal for him in the past. ...Now that I think about it, this may actually be more about helping Tim get his Podcasts a good headstart (this is the first one he's done) than actually all about Jim himself. Either way, Harbaugh.


Input: [Date] 24 weeks 2 days ago [Title] I've watched the first 45 [Body]

Output: I've watched the first 45 maybe 8 times and the rest of the film probably just once (maybe twice). The first 45 though... Mesmerizing.

Output: I vote for WD. Let's see what the kid can do in the spotlight.

Output: I was just thinking that same exact thing. Brian----> Sports Media Careers as Harbaugh----> Coaching Careers.

Output: Oh yeah? Well The Cable Guy is one if my all time favorite comedies.


Input: [Date] 24 weeks 2 days ago [Title] I'm going to go ahead and [Body]

Output: I'm going to go ahead and guess that if you don't unknowingly like an "artistic" movie then you will some day. "Artistic" isn't a genre and therefore can apply to your interests if within the proper genre of your choice.


Input: [Date] 24 weeks 2 days ago [Title] I don't know whether to neg [Body]

Output: I don't know whether to neg you or posbang you for your honesty. I have no idea why you don't think it's good, but it is in fact fantastic.


Input: [Date] 24 weeks 2 days ago [Title] Not joking when I say that I [Body]

Output: Not joking when I say that I loved the heck out of him in Bad Lieutenant:Port of Call New Orleans. He was so jacked up in that movie. Couldn't stop laughing.

Output: Well now I feel obligated to admit that I loved Man of Steel. LOVED I SAID.


Input: [Date] 25 weeks 17 hours ago [Title] So here we have people trying [Body]

Output: So here we have people trying to get word across that we shouldn't tweet negative things at recruits, and in response we have people who blog about those feelings instead. Makes sense I guess, but I feel like half the point was missed somehow.


Input: [Date] 25 weeks 17 hours ago [Title] I think what makes your [Body]

Output: I think what makes your comment more comical than it should be is the fact that you complained about Jay accidentally misspelling "Adidas" while you purposefully misspelled 1/10 of the words I'm responding to. I realize you're not trying to sell yourself here or anything, but it's still comical.


Input: [Date] 25 weeks 3 days ago [Title] I'm not here condoning his [Body]

Output: I'm not here condoning his actions or saying the girl deserved it, but as a poster above stated, the girl was out of sorts and approached Mixon looking for an altercation (I believe she was drunk). It is known that she had a history of legal issues, so I say this with the understanding that she was not an innocent party in this incident. I will reiterate from my post above that Mixon was known to have a good background with no prior incidents in his childhood, so this was very out of sorts for him. Again, there is never an excuse to hit a female, especially in the manner that was done in this case, but I fully understand this as something to not expect in the future with him. This isn't a Ray Rice issue where the footage showed the actions of a completely cold-blooded male - there were faults in both parties, and the end result was Mixon going out of control with how he reacted to the female's actions. His suspension and jail time was understood and deserved, but I fully expect him to learn from this situation as everything I read claims him to be a stand out individual with good morality.


Input: [Date] 25 weeks 3 days ago [Title] Going to be honest with you [Body]

Output: Going to be honest with you guys here... I don't think the mindset with Mixon is similar to that of other guys who have been involved with domestic violence. I live in OKC and I've read most of the articles and heard a lot of perceptions of this situation. I think OU fans are still excited about this kid, and the knowledge of him is that this incident was completely out of the norm for the kid and is not quite so cut and dry as "punch girl in face" sounds. The OK media all got to see the footage of the incident, and it was basically what they expected they would see. There was an article in the Oklahoman this morning with quotes from Stoops about how exited they are to have him back and how good of a kid he is. He does not have a bad background at all, and I will honestly be more shocked if we hear about another negative incident from him (especially to this severity) than if we don't. I completely dislike OU, but I am definitely open to seeing this kid have another chance. One incident should not be the end of a players career.


Input: [Date] 25 weeks 3 days ago [Title] Half agree half not. The part [Body]

Output: Half agree half not. The part I don't agree to is that Harbaughs staff was on the "loser" end of the recruiting gig. I do think there's a bit if an ego issue with the standard mgoblogger's perspective regarding certain media outlets, and while opinions are voiced quite strongly on this one as well, I definitely think Harbaugh's staff did a great job flipping some guys we had (probably) never even heard of prior to a few weeks ago. We lost out on some guys, but that has to be expected with a minimal timeframe to recruit with a new staff (even with Harbaugh's reputation). OTHER THAN THAT... I hear you, man.


Input: [Date] 25 weeks 3 days ago [Title] I read the sports page of the [Body]

Output: I read the sports page of the local Oklahoman that is provided to me in the handicap stall I am currently sitting in. Doesn't make me old, but then again if this wasn't a free service I wouldn't be reading... So I guess you're right.


Input: [Date] 25 weeks 5 days ago [Title] Has anyone's balls turned [Body]

Output: Has anyone's balls turned blue on this fella yet?


Input: [Date] 25 weeks 5 days ago [Title] This is like the complete [Body]

Output: This is like the complete reverse Hoke here. How many recruits do we have in limbo on NSD? 27? Geez... This will be a COMPLETELY NONproductive day tomorrow.


Input: [Date] 25 weeks 5 days ago [Title] Also could be said that "if [Body]

Output: Also could be said that "if you ain't first... at least you won't end up blown up in the middle of a nursing home." Sometimes "ain't first" isn't as bad as it seems. At least in this context.


Input: [Date] 25 weeks 5 days ago [Title] No, we can't. That became [Body]

Output: No, we can't. That became most obvious when Jim Harbaugh became our coach. We haz all the bads. /s (It has become apparent to me that at times I must use this or risk neg-bombs)


Input: [Date] 25 weeks 5 days ago [Title] Sir Spicyweiner??? [Body]

Output: Sir Spicyweiner???


Input: [Date] 25 weeks 6 days ago [Title] As someone who's wife is [Body]

Output: As someone who's wife is obsessed with Dance Moms, "the Devil's work" is probably the most accurate summary I've ever read regarding that show.


Input: [Date] 26 weeks 18 hours ago [Title] Do they not have any good [Body]

Output: Do they not have any good freshmen coming in? I think a lot of people thought we would be atrocious a few years where we scrapped together a very good team as well. I completely dislike that school not to mention their coach, but he is still a good coach. All it takes is a few players to step up and make a difference and the outlook could be completely different.


Input: [Date] 26 weeks 18 hours ago [Title] See also: Mitch McGary...? Oh [Body]

Output: See also: Mitch McGary...? Oh wait, he actually figured it out... I know both Donnal and Chatman have only three years of eligibility left and everything, but I think they still have a chance at becoming good if not great players. Beilein has a knack for helping players continually improve. Plus the fact that Chatman started at the beginning of the year kind of gives me the idea that maybe he was showing something prior to the beginning of the season that isn't what we are seeing now. Wait to see what these guys look like next year before you think that Beilein screwed up on those two guys.


Input: [Date] 26 weeks 4 days ago [Title] Yeah, cause you know him so [Body]

Output: Yeah, cause you know him so much better than Harbaugh...


Input: [Date] 26 weeks 4 days ago [Title] Yes, now just reel him in [Body]

Output: Yes, now just reel him in Jim... Reel him in REAL good.


Input: [Date] 26 weeks 4 days ago [Title] This is what they said about [Body]

Output: This is what they said about sir Spike Albrecht (albeit on the court), then the National Championship game happened...


Input: [Date] 26 weeks 5 days ago [Title] Wolverine Devotee = Lloyd [Body]

Output: Wolverine Devotee = Lloyd Brady of the interwebs? WD, when are you doing your first podcast interview with your newfound fame?


Input: [Date] 26 weeks 5 days ago [Title] If you judge "favorite [Body]

Output: If you judge "favorite websites" based off of web activity, I'd say not only is it my favorite but also smashes Google despite the fact that Google is my homepage.


Input: [Date] 26 weeks 5 days ago [Title] Of course you would say that [Body]

Output: Of course you would say that to ruin the fun of disciplinary negs.

Output: Sorry to hear that. Thoughts and prayers my friend.


Input: [Date] 27 weeks 1 day ago [Title] Unfortunately for me my dream [Body]

Output: Unfortunately for me my dream business will more than likely not provide me with a satisfactory amount of income, so for now I'm stuck dealing with "the man."

Output: These next few weeks are sure to be filled with a lot of F5's and "looking over my shoulder to make sure no one is noticing my lack of productivity"s.

Output: Biggie


Input: [Date] 27 weeks 6 days ago [Title] Time for MAAR and Dawkins [Body]

Output: Time for MAAR and Dawkins show off their skills and grow up. I'm actually excited to see this happen. This will only help next season by giving these guys some invaluable experience.


Input: [Date] 28 weeks 1 day ago [Title] Currently watching the BTN [Body]

Output: Currently watching the BTN Big Ten Elite show on the 2013 runner up team. Loved the win, but there is definitely something missing from the team this year. I will say though that I really liked to see MAAR do his thing tonight. He's definitely an addition to this team, and I'm excited to see what he's made of once he grows some confidence and realizes he can really help this team.


Input: [Date] 28 weeks 4 days ago [Title] I'm going to be honest with [Body]

Output: I'm going to be honest with you here... I'm not sure I'd want a recruit whose name is "G Spot." Sounds like trouble.

Output: I know some of these guys are giving you crap, but I actually learned something because of this thread... So +1.

Output: If you're referring to chunks of Gopher then yes.

Output: While this is extremely glorious news, I believe I'm going to have to pass...


Input: [Date] 29 weeks 2 days ago [Title] Do you seriously think [Body]

Output: Do you seriously think Alabama doesn't redshirt any of their players? A team like Alabama who not only recruits well but also develops well should have very few freshmen play in a given year because their depth chart is stacked with talented guys who have been developed. You are wasting years of players' eligibility (and player development) by burning through redshirts just because "it's not what elite programs do." So much wrong with this one.


Input: [Date] 29 weeks 2 days ago [Title] I'm pretty sure the majority [Body]

Output: I'm pretty sure the majority of the fan base, especially those who paid attention to recruiting, had a difficult time not seeing a future filled with success after that BCS win. I think that was a fair assessment given the success he had in his first year at UM. That's what fan bases do; success results in more success, and failure results in more failure. We live by the day way above what reality tells us where nothing is guaranteed. That's one reason there's so much emotion put into each win and loss by fans.


Input: [Date] 29 weeks 2 days ago [Title] Not only that, but he will [Body]

Output: Not only that, but he will also force other teams to make changes because he will make them look terrible in comparison.

Output: Apparently Sam will still have Wheatley.... but it's not a lock.... according to his sources.

Input: [Date] 29 weeks 5 days ago [Title] I had to record the game [Body]

Output: I had to record the game tonight and accidentally checked the blog out prior to me starting up the dvr... Which was approximately 9:30 EST. Did not see a posbang thread, so I watched the entire game assuming a loss.... DID NOT LOSE HECK YES HARBAUGH

On a semi-notsureifserious note, what if everyone on this board purchased some junk on Amazon through the mgoAmazon link.. that of course they were going to purchase anyway... and Brian set up a "Come Home Harbaugh" fundraiser via those funds. Think it could do some (positive) damage? I am not the creative type to come with what kind of legal actions could be done with such money, but Harbaugh's got to have some sort of Christmas wish list that we could partially fulfill. Dumb idea? Yeah thought so k thanks bye.

Recruiting for the 2013 class is nowhere near finished, so who knows where that’ll lead for the two programs. Second, the gap between recruiting will likely not be very large so as to guarantee one team being better than the other. Third, the relation between stars on the field and wins on the field is not as concrete as you make it seem. [Title]

Input: [Date] 4 days 16 hours ago [Body] Can someone check whether I'm understanding this correctly? No snark, honestly curious/confused. So Mullen is saying that coaches are sometimes forced (or wanting) to play true freshmen. With more true freshmen soon to be ineligible because of their relatively low high school GPAs, these coaches will play true freshmen with higher high school GPAs who would benefit from a redshirt. Since those kids kind of get screwed in this scenario, he thinks they should be able to play five years of college football if their grades were good enough coming in. Is that right? If so, it's intriguing enough not to just respond with an eye roll. It would give kids a strong incentive to get their high school grades up and schools a stronger incentive to recruit kids with good grades (though the new policy might do that, too). At the same time, it's a pretty radical idea (five years of eligibility) and I'm not sure that the problem is big enough to justify that solution. [Title]

Output: Can someone check whether I'm


Input: [Date] 4 days 21 hours ago [Body] I don't know, but maybe it's because he's still an active player? To the broader issue, I think it's sad that they totally killed the legends jersey concept. There was a lot to like about it. It kept numbers in circulation, allowed those numbers to be used in recruiting, kept Michigan legends in the fronts of our minds, and made for a really original way to acknowledge of a program's history. They made some mistakes with it - e.g., making the patches too big and encouraging guys to switch numbers - but those felt like relatively easy fixes. I think they threw out the baby with the bath water with that one. [Title]

Input: [Date] 6 days 1 hour ago [Body] A pretty severe punishment? Come on, he pulled a gun on a fellow student. One of the most nauseating comments around here is this idea that since bad things have happened at Michigan, we're just as bad as everyone else and have no right to comment on anything. Do you honestly think that Delton Williams would remain with the Michigan football program if he did that to a Michigan student? Do you think the University of Michigan would allow that? Hell, in your one example (Gibbons), we have a direct comparison point with MSU. As shitty as Gibbons' conduct seemed, Michigan handled that incident a whole lot more seriously than MSU handled the Payne and Appling incident. MSU had a Final Four streak to preserve, after all. If Michigan did this, it'd be the lead story on ESPN, the Free Press, and damn near every other publication in America. Hell, Keith Heitzman possibly not getting a fifth scholarship year managed to become the top news story on Yahoo. Maybe that scrutiny and the lack of attention that MSU gets leads us to self-police differently, or maybe it's something else (e.g., our athletic department's power being more constrained by others in the university), but I have a really hard time believing that this would play out similarly at UM.

Input: [Date] 1 week 1 day ago [Body] I agree. By my count, there are 55 four-star WRs in this year's 247 composite rankings and 50 of them are at least 6 feet tall. The only way I ever really see recruiting sites evaluated is by how well their rankings predicted NFL draft status. In terms of college productivity, I'd guess that they tend to overrate kids with NFL bodies who might take a long time to develop as players and underrate kids likely to be productive in college but unappealing to the NFL.

Input: [Date] 1 week 2 days ago [Body] I think the original critique/concern was way overstated, but I'll admit that I have some questions, too. I'd feel great about all of the low-rated guys if those guys were clearly at the top of our coaches' lists. But they've given out a ton of offers this year, so it hasn't been quite that targeted. And I'm a little uneasy about how many teammates/brothers/etc. of high-level recruits seem to be getting offers. At times it seems like we're willing to use two or three roster spots to (maybe) get one top guy. Unless it's for a Rashan Gary-level recruit, I'm not sold on that approach. Having said that, I'll cut the coaches - and especially these coaches - a ton of slack on guys they've worked with at camps. And I agree with WolvinLA that recruiting, while important, gets so much attention now that its importance is exaggerated. It's also nice to see comments from Drevno, at Michigan [link] and before then [link], that basically say Harbaugh's the best talent evaluator he's ever seen. [Title]

Output: From all the media


Input: [Date] 4 years 29 weeks ago [Body] RR: among the best facilities in the country, if not the best. Largest stadium in country with great new renovations. Beilein: worst facilities in Big 10. Crisler Arena in bottom of Big 10. Add to the fact that Beilein is squeaky-clean in the cesspool that is college basketball recruiting, then yes, he does get a longer rope. Saw somewhere recently (don't remember where, don't have link, at work no time to find it) that Brandon believes he needs to provide Beilein with competitive advantage in terms of facilities, etc, then he (Brandon) can fully evaluate Beilein appropriately.

Input: [Date] 4 years 29 weeks ago [Body] Singing of The Victors in the student section corner of the end zone after the wins at home. Wish there would have been more of those W's, and hoping Coach Hoke can help lead the team to many, many renditions of The Victors with the students. [Title]

Output: The Victors


Input: [Date] 4 years 29 weeks ago [Body] the 40 former players? I heard a handful of names mentioned at the press conference. I believe most if not all are local to Ann Arbor. Not being a smartass.. I truly have not heard about 40 former players being there. Where did you see this? [Title]

Output: Who are


Input: [Date] 4 years 29 weeks ago [Body] And there is no way he could have "done this on Nov 28" as others have mentioned. He fires RR and hires Hoke on Nov 28, and everyone is left wondering about Harbaugh, Miles, etc. And he couldn't have hired JH on Nov 28 cuz JH wasn't going to come at that point in time. If getting someone with UM ties was immensely important, as it appears to be, then the way it was done was really the only way. [Title]

Output: Agreed.


Input: [Date] 4 years 33 weeks ago [Body] I saw the part that said Oh wait...it WAS (kinda) back in 1973 when we tied for the title with OSU and Sparty and failed to continue on to where it said: voted to send them instead of us. Maybe this is Karmic payback. So I was merely commenting that UM did not tie with OSU and Sparty. But thanks for the fascinating history lesson. Who is this Bo fellow you speak of? And what of this vote thing? [Title]

Output: Reading fail on my part


Input: [Date] 4 years 33 weeks ago [Body] Mich and OSU tied for the Big Ten, as the only blemish on their records was the tie against each other. MSU was not in the conversation regarding the 1973 Big 10 Championship. [Title]

Output: 2 way tie in 1973


Input: [Date] 4 years 35 weeks ago [Body] Isn't that a huge stretch? When is Carr supposed to announce? By the way, a lot of stuff I have read the last few years by the more reliable posters seems to suggest that Carr wanted out a year earlier, but was talked into staying by Bill Martin. If that is even close to the truth, then Martin had a long time to do his searching. And doesn't any Athletic Director worth his salt have a list of potential replacements, for all his coaches, in the event of drastic circumstances? Blaming Carr for the timing of his retirement is not new, but to me it sure seems like grasping at straws. On the long list of how things went down that negatively impacted the program, wouldn't there be about 497 other things that come first? [Title]

Output: The timing of Coach Carr's retirement? Really?

Input: [Date] 4 years 39 weeks ago [Body] You truly believe that Brandon believed that? He never wanted to move that game; furthermore, he knew that his fan base would never accept moving the OSU game. He played the best card he had - publicity. His other options were to go public against the Conference Commissioner (not what a smart new AD would do); or to remain silent and let the game be moved. He chose the wisest course of action with the end result being the game remained at the end of the season. [Title]

Output: really?

Input: [Date] 4 years 40 weeks ago [Body] If you're going to introduce a new system, then you need to implement it your way. Wife of Six Zero obviously has done brick and mortar shopping for years, it's what she knows best. Even if Six Zero's talents are more of the online variety, as the head coach of Shopping, she will do it her way. The talent, the computer system implemented by Six Zero, the large computer screen, the dual monitor system, all mean nothing. She will do it her way. The results in the early years of Wife Day were sometimes brutal; but now that Six Zero is a veteran of the system, he is performing close to the standards set by the fans of his wife. [Title]

Output: why wife day has no online shopping


Input: [Date] 4 years 44 weeks ago [Body] Why is Ron English talking about himself? Why not talk about his team? Granted, not much he can say, but he can talk about scoring 20 on OSU, he can talk about learning experience for his guys, etc, etc. Why talk about himself in the way that he does in this instance? [Title]

Output: what about the team?

Input: [Date] 4 years 13 weeks ago [Body] I realize this response is three days late, but how you could infer from the post that because of free agency problems under Millen the team would have the same problems under Mayhew is beyond me when I mentioned neither Millen nor free agency (nor Mayhew for that matter). Instead, I meant to highlight that going in, there was an obvious weakness of the team - the secondary - and they could have addressed it in the second round. The appeal of addressing this through the draft is that it is almost guaranteed the player will be on your team next season. IMO drafting the best available is a strategy that works great for the first round or when your team does not have a huge weakness. It is quite possible that the team can address the issue in free agency. However, the team's top DB targets in free agency may get offered more money elsewhere or may not want to play for the Lions. Free agency is a riskier option to address team needs, and when one is as big a need as the Lions have, I would have preferred the guarantee of the draft. [Title]

Output: I realize this response is


Input: [Date] 4 years 13 weeks ago [Body] It's a nice story and all, and I welcome him to the team. However, what are the stats on the #1 and #2 cornerbacks last year? You cannot tell me it is less than or equal to the weakness of the 21 combined receptions for the #3 and #4 receiver. [Title]

Input: [Date] 4 years 22 weeks ago [Body] If you really want to make the best of your time in Columbus, you should try The Thurman Cafe. It is pretty far south of campus, but it will not disappoint you if you are into incredible burgers. It isn't so much of a sports bar as a hole-in-the-wall restaurant. I remember them having televisions there, too. Just make sure to get there early because there usually is a wait. http://www.thethurmancafe.com/ [Title]

Output: The Thurman Cafe


Input: [Date] 4 years 23 weeks ago [Body] Isiah Thomas covertly offering advice and guidance to an owner who gave him an extension for ruining the franchise is a far-fetched idea to you. However, in the comment you made before this, the theory that an SEC team receiving sanctions would result in a secession of the SEC from the NCAA, forming an "unregulated football super alliance" seems plausible to you? http://mgoblog.com/mgoboard/ot-alabama-and-barry-sanders-jr-more#comment... Care to explain your logic? [Title]


Input: [Date] 4 years 27 weeks ago [Body] No where does it state that RR was fired solely because of his (in)ability to recruit. It talks about the myth that RR did not recruit enough players in the state of Michigan. EDIT: Removed second paragraph because I was wrong. [Title]
