Input: [Date] 3 years 47 weeks ago [Body] to mainly osu fans....so he caters to them... I see no reason to get bent since the rankings don't mean much anyway... The top players in the state are obvious anyway and only some diehard homer or teenager wouldn't recognize it [Title]

Output: he gets money to sell magazines, internet subscriptions...


Input: [Date] 4 years 4 weeks ago [Body] Info is info and who works for it is generally the first one out with it and I have zero issue with it. Beaver or TVH, posters follow both in cult like fashion, ie both boards posters saying...well if ..... says it i will believe it..... So for one board or the other to make fun of either or the other posters is hilarious....cause what would you be doing here then if you aren't following a publishers every whim? I like the recruiting info from every michigan site I visit, I like the team/staff info as well. But to be honest, I don't really follow recruiting super close, I watch, but I don't hang on a single word that beaver, tvh, sam webb, brian or anyone for that matter posts. If a player signs, great, if not so be it...that is recruiting [Title]

Output: to everyone on this board....


Input: [Date] 4 years 6 weeks ago [Body] It was great reliving the fab 5 and what they stood for then and now seeing how 4 of those guys grew into men and grew up. I will always remember how much fun they were on the court! [Title]

Output: rip on duke is awesome


Input: [Date] 4 years 6 weeks ago [Body] Goal oriented, centered, knows exactly what direction he wants his programs to go and knows how he wants to get there. Strong leader, self confident and now comes the most important part. He knows the Michigan landscape as a Football Player he knows the traditions and what everything means to Alumni, to Boosters to Fans and esp to Players! He has served on the Board of Reagents, he has been a corperate CEO. His backround came in perfect to meld the fans back together. His leadership thru the ncaa was perfect taking over for something that never should have happened. The hiring process imo he made one mistake and that was not making the decision after the osu game and waiting till the bowl game...Imo he had what he needed. Publicity, idk, he is a little overboard and as he says the job should be about Michigan, and in my mind that means more of the head coaches and players and less of him. But I'll take this any day over Bill Martin not stepping up and being the leader we needed in crisis. Renovations, right now this is all Bill Martin and he deserves total credit for that, Brandon walked in at the end, and one thing I respected that Brandon did was have Bill Martin do the ribbon cutting and give him the credit for the stadium renovation. [Title]

Output: Brandon is exactly what is needed right now


Input: [Date] 4 years 6 weeks ago [Body] turn on you that you would not expect. But the vast majority of turn coats had zero character to begin with. Former players mad at Rich were the half that weren't mad at Lloyd and were claiming they were shut out. The rest were the half that were mad at Lloyd and they were coming out of the woodwork to say it was the first time in yrs they were welcomed back. Pick wich side you want to believe or care to worry about their opinion on the matter cause it really is was picking and choosing to be upset or not and publically support or tear down. Osu, look at the number of problem stars they had...then consider how they handled things and how former players come out. There was a definite line of jealousy there that is very obvious and a disdain for them by those who do love osu. [Title]

Output: There are always a few that would


Input: [Date] 4 years 6 weeks ago [Body] Michigan beat wazzu, ohio st faced fsu who imo was the 1 team that could have beat that 97 team, only difference was michigan had a more clutch qb and better oline, otherwise the defenses stacked for both teams..... pennst lost their qb, rb and star wr for the bowl game against florida and still gave florida a good run... iowa lost their starting qb the rest of the season after the michigan game and wasn't the same team again after that game...and for that same matter neither was msu... Michigan's defense put 5 qb's out of a game or multiple games that season for either a few plays or more.. they were devastating...... [Title]

Output: nobody considered things in the bowl record


Input: [Date] 4 years 6 weeks ago [Body] Remember mcnabb and jackson both killed the defense throwing overtop, if you remember todd toast howard getting torched a couple times ..... or finding out Andre Weathers wasn't Woodson against syracuse cause they tried to play the same man up style with Weathers as the #1 corner........... And don't forget the real issue in pass defense was this. Woodson left for the nfl, William Peterson who likely would have taken over as the #1 corner transferred and was ruled ineligible........ and then add in either Patmon or another db didn't play that game either....so it took herman out of being aggressive playing man coverage and attacking mcnabb and spying him with hendricks like he wanted to instead dropping the safeties deep to cover for the corners..... Michigan against nebraska... frost was nowhere near the throwing qb mcnabb was, and was a straight forward runner, not elusive or dominating physically. But I will say the rb's for the huskers were the real deal. Biggest advantage michigan had was a big rotation of dlineman that yr......One thing that would have hurt michigan though was not having either eric mayes or dadrian taylor since both were out injured for the year.... but that only mildly affected depth on that defense. [Title]

Output: Mcnabb carved up the defense passing, same with jurius jackson


Input: [Date] 4 years 6 weeks ago [Body] Talent was one thing but consider this in style of play. Nebraska offense was completely 1 dimensional run game with some passing thrown in. Michigan had superior pass defense that was easily better then anything Nebraska could put at them in the passing game. Nebraska had 2 pass plays, 1 Michigan ran all the time themselves to the te trailing bootleg off play action the other was qb option step back pass, either wr or te streaking down the field. To wich the backside corner safety had to watch the release of the wr or te.... This against that michigan defense puts nebraska's only option to run the ball every down....and one thing Nebraska would have found was the fact that this defense was devastating once they had you one dimensional. Imo Pennst was the most dangerous offense in cfb that yr and this defense rocked them to the core. Nebraska against this defense focused for the mnc, it's over....... [Title]

Output: my reasons michigan wins


Input: [Date] 4 years 9 weeks ago [Body] 1 stoops...turned down his dream job in nd, twice! And turned down osu already, didn't even talk to osu! 2 gruden.....dude makes over a million a yr to do tv broadcasts of games.....he knows his family now...he isn't giving that up...and not to mention he is becoming a football media rockstar.....not happening no matter what program or nfl team comes calling.....(this reminds me of all the talk about jimmy johnson's return to coaching..yeah you see how that went) 3 Ferentz... makes 4.5 million a yr overall in iowa city.... money isn't the issue and he is reveared there even if he goes 8-4...try that in a2 or cbus......................................... 4 Meyer....... Too soon but the real issue for osu is sanctions....why go into a job riddled with handcuffs and one mistake makes it ten times worse! Honestly I don't see Meyer coaching in the bigten at all.... unless joepa retires this yr and pennst comes calling and Meyer has a clean slate....could happen...osu and sanctions not happening. 5 Glenn Mason.... I know I know huge disappointment here but the second the job is open turn on the bigten network to see him gravelling for the job........ [Title]

Output: lets first take coaches to remove from the list


Input: [Date] 4 years 11 weeks ago [Body] I wanted hoke again............... For those upset about the hiring process, the only thing I didn't like was waiting till after the bowl game....I thought that was kinda bogus, but other then that the process itself that Dave Brandon had was very good. I didn't see anything changing after the bowl game, no defense was going to magically show up against miss st after the season this staff had and after the osu game I didn't care who was the coach, they needed to go. Hoke is a great hire and has done everything the right way from the outset. He also was a great hire due to his familiarity with bigten, midwest/ohio/pa/mi/ill recruiting and even better he was on the staff that had won bigten titles and a national title...he brings familiarity to michigan, he brings great success back with him from before and turned horrible programs into winners. It just speaks volumes........ [Title]

Output: for the record, I wanted hoke 3yrs ago


Input: [Date] 4 years 13 weeks ago [Body] National tv, and this is what the flag people do.... http://michiganzone.blogspot.com/2008/01/it-all-went-wrong-for-osu-monday.html keep in mind they only had 1 job to do the entire game.....run down the field with the flags spelling o h i o in order.......... [Title]

Output: The ohio vs lsu mnc game.....


Input: [Date] 4 years 14 weeks ago [Body] So no 2 deep is decided and nobody has said Cullen cannot break the 2 deep if he puts in the offseason work or be the nickel back or win a starting job...... Point is to play anywhere he has to put the work in, and he will have to beat out 4-6 other players to crack the 2 deep or win a starting job. Leaving is quiting when things are tough............. [Title]

Output: It isn't fall yet!


Input: [Date] 4 years 14 weeks ago [Body] Oline definitely needs to get stronger, but they did look better then I thought considering they and the qb are the most affected adapting to the new scheme. QB, Denard and Devin didn't look as comfortable but the best part of that was the defense was bringing lots of pressures and looks to confuse them....ie something they actually will see in the fall. No more of the bland defensive looks so they can go down field at will as in the past. That isn't a knock on Rich, it's the truth, last yr the defense was so bland it was difficult to tell what was what.............other then they were out manned at the point of attack. Defense, dline is far better, far more ahead and that was missing vanbergen. Lbers aren't fighting off lineman every single snap thus the lber play was far better imo....still a way to go but consider where it was last yr......and that's without demens...... Safety play is all around better as well.... Best players on defense, Carvin, Rvb, MM and Demens........... does someone else step up into that list? Best on offense, obviously Denard, Stonum, Lewan and Molk.... who steps in here, hemmingway, wich rb steps up and grabs the reins or is it by commitee? [Title]

Output: 2cents


Input: [Date] 4 years 14 weeks ago [Body] Folks, don't take 10 tickets and then not even go, don't take 10 tickets when you know at best you are going to use 4..........that is jack Hopefully next yr the university charges $10 for reserve tickets for motts and it cuts back on ppl just taking as many as they are limited to take......... btw I am hoping the school moves spring back 2 weeks for much better weather.....but I doubt they will, doing that would take them past spring break. [Title]

Output: what happened to every reserve ticket being taken?


Input: [Date] 4 years 15 weeks ago [Body] BTW, ready any monday morning column and tell me it is not without bias....or heck read the dfreep and tell me there isn't bias and had not been bias the previous 3yrs and they they are the paid professionals. Heck complaining about bias here is actually pretty funny because as much as I read those guys had some bias against Rich answer me how much bias Brian and a great many here had against Brady Hoke being hired and carried that bias even to a degree now. I am sure the crickets will be loud on that cause everyone has their biased opinions. BTW, I have talked with these guys indepth about football and what you get on the blog is a scaled back version. You want the deep down x's and o's, coach over there can break it down with the best out there, problem is he gets another 100 responses to explain what he just said so typically he dumbs down the talk to what most everyone is familiar with. These guys liked Rich if you knew them, but what they say is plain as day obvious. When reports came out and I heard it from more then them that Rich would stop defensive coaches from correcting on field mistakes in practice and tell them to let them get the reps in, it clearly made sense what these guys were reporting, ie practice was about drills, reps and getting them done in the allowed time for that drill/station.....idea was get them doing the same thing over and over not about correcting bad fundamentals....they hoped repetition fixed it....... It also proved the point the practice was for the offense because Rich's offense depends on rythem so no defensive adjustment was going to ruin that adjustment. It also told you the reports of defensive improvement the previous yrs were accurate, just against Rich's offense since that is what they practiced against. If you want great spelling, punctuation and sentence structure coupled with great story telling then go to barnes and nobel or the writer's blogs......... [Title]

Output: so part of the dislike is bias or not being a writer...really


Input: [Date] 4 years 15 weeks ago [Body] They don't blow smoke selling a product or get into the games to keep readers, they just report what they see and know. I have known them for yrs and they do a very good job. the football breakdown is great for even a novice to read, yeah some may want a much heavier analysis but that would only bore to tears the casual fan as only the most ardent football fans want the total statistical breakdown with player actions responsibilities and everything else. Grammer, if you want it written by an english major buy a magazine, if you want it free by those who attend and love michigan football enough to share it, go to their website. [Title]

Output: fyi, these guys do a great job


Input: [Date] 4 years 16 weeks ago [Body] Ie they pay the school for their education, they pay for the strength and conditioning coaching they get and use of facilities, pay their own dorm and pay for the food tables.....and let the schools pay them after they pay all that first........ [Title]

Output: Sure pay them, but they give up their scholarships....


Input: [Date] 4 years 19 weeks ago [Body] Riley, Voskul and pelinka.... should have been a bigger part of the team then they were, and I still think that is the reason the fab5 wasn't more successfull... Those guys were on a national championship team and I think they cost themselves by not making the other guys a big part of the team...particularly after they all became starters...... I bet they all know it now and wish they did it a bit different with those guys but it's past now [Title]

Output: jmho


Input: [Date] 4 years 19 weeks ago [Body] They want paid they don't get a scholarship! You pay your way thru school, get student loans like everyone else and then lets pay them according to play..... Lets see how many athletes vote on that... you can get paid based on your pay but you will not be on scholarship and must take out a student loan if you cannot pay your way. [Title]

Output: Here is the plan


Input: [Date] 4 years 19 weeks ago [Body] Remember the 1st meeting was on Osu's terms meaning they were self reporting what they just found out, turning it over to the ncaa and recommending punishment...... At that time the ncaa was still trying to preserve the sugarbowl so they gave a harsher 5 game suspension and let the tat5 play in the bcs game..... Now, after the fact it comes out, we all know Tressel lied, covered it up, signed the documents stating no violations, lied again to osu and then ncaa about time frame and where the tip came from..... Punishment.... 2010 wins imo have to be vacated, and if now proven these players commited these actions at all during the 2009 season even those wins should be vacated.....and bcs bowl money as well...... Tressel.. 2 games...not near enough... remember bruce pearl lost 8 sec bball games almost half the confrence schedule for lying to the ncaa... Bryant lost his season for lying and not even haven broken a rule...... Tressel imo this looks like an antonio bryant suspension is coming..... Probation.... given, likely 3 to 5yrs for this one... Scholarships ..... unknown... usc lost 30 over 3yrs ie 10 a yr for 3yrs.... for an assistant coach that covered up reggie bush taking extra benefits.... what happens here? [Title]

Output: Osu punishment


Input: [Date] 4 years 20 weeks ago [Body] 1 Attourney, imo privelege, that's for the bar to decide.., I don't think he lightly divulged the info...I also don't think he for a second believed the emails would ever become public.... as in, once you read this you delete my email and then handle your situation. 2 It was obvious the attourney was affiliated with osu. He had Tressel's direct email, not the athletic departments front email for the avg person to send their hate mail or the psyco osu fan with a review of last weeks game.. This dude had Tressel's account. 3 Motive, I don't think you can call an attourney shady for giving Tressel the heads up here. Did he make a major mistake in doing so, sure but shady.....not at all... Imo this happens all the time, every day where some confidential info is shared looking out for someone else, hey this is a heads up, this is heading your way......ethical...no, loyal, yes, they do not always mix and loyalty can come with a price..... [Title]

Output: I tend to think a few things


Input: [Date] 4 years 20 weeks ago [Body] come on.... I have had tickets, some I did, some I didn't do. Ones I did I paid the fine, took the class, ones I didn't I stated my case... Been pulled over for speeding and told I was going far faster then I was by the officer..... It happens to everyone.... [Title]

Output: traffic tickets....


Input: [Date] 4 years 20 weeks ago [Body] btw, the Valenti threads he see's when he travels the michigan boards only confirms that you do listen and his style works to keep you listening.... [Title]

Output: You can turn the station...


Input: [Date] 4 years 20 weeks ago [Body] Dui in any state requires you to go to court regardless and you have to bring representation, ie a lawyer...... 2nd Donte Stallworth, yeah what happened was horrible, what happened took a mans life, but don't let facts get in the way of what happened. The person killed was also drunk and walked into the road where stallworth was driving and all accounts stated even if sober stallworth would not have been able to avoid the accident..... Braylon, his lawyer is doing his job, that is what lawyers do... ie make sure police followed proceedure, make sure equipment is calibrated correctly for an accurate breathalizer...But lets see you write a check to a lawyer for a few hundred beans a hr and you tell them not to do anything cause you are going to man up....... [Title]

Output: get some facts right


Input: [Date] 4 years 22 weeks ago [Body] Kansas City Royals, Pittsburg Pirates and a couple others that fit the list...... [Title]

Output: you left out baseball


Input: [Date] 4 years 23 weeks ago [Body] what great defensive players were recruited by that staff or developed by that staff that led to even decent defense being played? Yet to this day their biggest wins were against 6-6 wisconsin, 6-6 notre dame and this yr's 7 win notre dame team......impressive....sheeshe btw, everyone in the country wanted clowney as a defensive player...rich, can you play qb..... [Title]

Output: uhmmm tell us


Input: [Date] 4 years 26 weeks ago [Body] He is not an interior dlineman at all in his time here. Possibility he could excell as a sde, but as a interior dt, only on pass rush downs..... [Title]

Output: rvb has to play de in a defense


Input: [Date] 4 years 26 weeks ago [Body] DB also should have reached out to Brock himself and asked what he could do. It would be prudent for Dave Brandon to get in touch with Barwis and Wellman both and see if they could work something out to allow Brock to continue his rehab here....or continue here until Brock is able to continue elsewhere if he chooses. Above poster nailed it, Brock was asked about things and in the transition Brock is obviously upset. He didn't slam michigan but he feels Rich and company got a raw deal and the fact that this transition has not gone on even a month yet it is way to early to start calling out michigan at all in this [Title]

Output: DB also should have reached


Input: [Date] 4 years 27 weeks ago [Body] Barwis....come on guys he deserves mad props for everything he did here. In particular Brock Mealer and what they did there. For those Anti Barwis, come on the guy followed Rich's instructions.... so when he told him he wanted lineman running ...., lifting .... and weighing about.... that is what barwis did.... Rich adjusted after the 09 season saying we have to get bigger....that is well documented..but they didn't get big enough....the same front guys got ran over...Mike Martin included....they weren't near big enough for a 3 man front....is that Barwis fault or Rich's fault? Imo Rich....he knew the front he was playing Mike Barwis trained them as instructed. Get a top notch crew and some depth for coaches to work with on the field and everything is good. BTW, S&C...come on 2006 team was a personal foul from being undefeated under gittleson's ancient method, 2005 team had 5 losses.... same method.. 9, 7 and 5 losses under barwis... off season commitment was 05 team issue, 08, 09 and 10 those teams just didn't have talent period. [Title]

Output: Get a top notch crew in and everything is good


Input: [Date] 4 years 28 weeks ago [Body] I am all for bringing soup back [Title]

Output: I am all for bringing soup


Input: [Date] 4 years 28 weeks ago [Body] He was a longtime dc at kstate then at florida when he was hired by Oklahoma.....yeah that's right they went after a successfull coordinator to run a program that is very prestigious.... Ohhh yeah, before stoops Oklahoma made more then a couple big name hires....uhmm Howard Schnellenberger ring a bell... Stoops at Oklahoma.....funny how oklahoma gave stoops a shot to be head coach he wins a national title and suddenly every program thinks they can lure him there when they wouldn't even talk to him before.....florida, nd, ohio st, and every other top job that has opened up..... Harbaugh... funny michigan wouldn't field a call from him 3yrs ago...now he leads stanford to a bcs bowl and blows out vatech and michigan fans are drooling all overthemselves and swearing harbaugh should be running home....when michigan wouldn't call at all 3yrs ago..... Point is you have to be ahead of the curve....sometimes you have to take a chance and just hire the best coach, not the best name coach...... [Title]

Output: bob stoops terrible example!


Input: [Date] 4 years 30 weeks ago [Body] Sure, don't show up to workout, no pay, dont perform on the field, no pay...btw, here is your tuition payment...and the bill for the foodtable, your tudors nobody else gets for free, your dorm bill.....sure.....I mean pay the athletes to play football and let them pay for everything they get for free now! [Title]

Output: pay athletes and don't give them a scholarship....


Input: [Date] 4 years 32 weeks ago [Body] Why was smu the only program to get the death penalty? It should have been done long before to other schools, the ncaa knows it, everyone knows it..... btw, I still look at the smu death penalty as a warning to usc and the sec! Check out Usc's crap...long before reggie bush btw http://sportsillustrated.cnn.com/vault/article/magazine/MAG1125493/index.htm I had a link that can no longer be found on espn that brought out how he 12 sec schools led the ncaa with 42 major violations and many of the schools multiple over many yrs...and this went back to 10 right before alabama got nailed again! So yea....it's funny how espn signs a major tv deal with the sec and suddenly this disappears...... [Title]

Output: A few things...


Input: [Date] 4 years 33 weeks ago [Body] The 1st offensive series florida safeties were 12yds deep at the snap of the ball, just like they were a yr later against manningham and arrington.... The 2nd offensive series florida realized ted ginn wasn't in the game, they were both in the box and the florida defense was blitzing from everywhere. Rewatch the tape..., a few series later ted ginn re enters the game, florida see's it and they back the safeties up again..., realize he is ineffective and cannot get off the line due to his ankle and they are right back in the box after 2 plays. 2006 season, sure florida got the mnc, but didn't deserve to be in the game...., kudos for them for getting the nod and taking advantage, but michigan was better, and up until mario's injury michigan was the best team in cf that season. [Title]

Output: 1 wr did make that difference vs florida for osu...


Input: [Date] 4 years 34 weeks ago [Body] will get the defense on the right track.....getting something a defensive coordinator can really work with in the defensive backfield besides swiss cheese will work wonders.... getting a couple dlineman big enough to play bigten football will work wonders..., getting those dlineman in front of lbers to allow them to get to plays before they get ran over, might actually help... just a thought.... btw, teams should get up to play Michigan....and that is no excuse for Michigan either...uhmmm well we were their superbowl......guess what, this is michigan and you get to play 11 superbowls before you get to the biggest game of the yr for any program of any sport.... [Title]

Output: fyi, a yr older, more depth and more talent


Input: [Date] 4 years 34 weeks ago [Body] face it this is the first yr in 16 yrs anyone even cared about the iron bowl.... acc screwed the fsu/miami game as well...putting both teams in opposite divisions but having them play early and essentially taking 1 team out of national discussion before the season is even started.....they should have kept the game in mid/late october like it always was.... michigan ohiost, I think the bigten messed up by keeping this game as the last game of the season...imho, it should have stayed as the 3rd saturday of november, thus giving at least a 1 week break and it stays at a traditional time slot everyone is familiar with....and this game would still have the ability to knock the other team out of the bigten title game or decide the bigten....(last game is great except for the fact that it's the last game of the regular season now with a championship game left....thus I would prefer the 3rd sat, not thanksgiving weekend.... [Title]

Output: sec screwed the iron bowl....


Input: [Date] 4 years 34 weeks ago [Body] admit it, vanbergen/roh/banks/patterson are not interior dlineman.... Mike Martin cannot control 2 gaps every single snap, it has been proven this season, DB's, warren gone, woolfolk injured out for season spelled doom for the corners, Lbers, Ezeh is afraid of guards coming free hence he retreats from contact..... Fact of the matter is this defensive personel even next yr is behind to run this defense. Washington or Ash would have to be monster 330lb nt's and Martin Vanbergen again would have to get bigger to run this defense. Corners would have to grow up and woolfolk come back healthy....then we can talk about a defense getting much better. [Title]

Output: right personel helps to start....


Input: [Date] 4 years 35 weeks ago [Body] play that is illegal! Nobody here is saying wisconsin didn't kick the crap out of our swiss cheese defense. But to go out and call that play to chop block a dlineman on purpose....ummmm he should flat out be suspended.... Heck the bigten should suspend him for 2 games, the second for being a moron and dumb enough to admit it! But that is why I love stupid people! [Title]

Output: he should be suspended for calling a specific


Input: [Date] 4 years 35 weeks ago [Body] Lewan had a nasty chop block last week and had one a couple weeks before that, and both were completely uncalled for.....don't act like Beilema called that specificaly....lineman pull that crap when the guy infront of them got the best of them a few plays.... Beilema, most coaches are complete aholes, what cause ferentz, tressel are good infront of a camera you think they aren't? Rich, you better believe he is....Bo, we call him tough as nails as our coach and you think 9 other schools thought he was a saint...Coaches are aholes to other teams. So when Dantonio, Hope, Beilema or indiana's coach (yeah nobody knows who he is or will take the time cause he won't be there long enough) act like douche bags, its because they are. They just happen to be the ones that don't know how to act infront of a camera.... [Title]

Output: calm down on the chop block....


Input: [Date] 4 years 35 weeks ago [Body] The defensive front was way undersized last yr in a 4 man front.....who the heck thought it would be better this yr in a 3 man front minus brandon graham? DUH.... This defense has been flat ran over every single week, can't stop the run can't get to the passer.....both of those is on the defensive front. Vanbergen, out of position he needs to be in a 4-3 as a sde, not interior dline Martin, out of position as a 3 front nt, again he needs to be de in 3front or dt in 4front... Roh, out of position still needs to be 4front rde Patterson/Banks 4 front sde.... I admire the effort these guys give but the whole defense rests right here with no defensive tackle able to come in and play next to Mike Martin that can take the heat off the dline, ie let martin be a dt and not a nt, vanbergen be a sde, roh/black be rde's.... We witnessed today a dline just get ran over no matter how much they subbed they just got their tails handed to them....and they are bigger this yr then last yr and last yr was a 4man front and did a better job! [Title]

Output: Ummmmmm partly correct.


Input: [Date] 4 years 36 weeks ago [Body] Mike Martin is not big enough to be a nose tackle in a 3 man front in the bigten, big12, sec..... he doesn't control 2 gaps against the run and that must happen. 3-3-5 would need a big space eating nt that controls the 2 inside gaps and demands a double team so the inside lber can flow to the ball without getting a lineman or 2 lineman coming free every single play. Mike Martin should be playing de in a 3 man front.... Next yr dline should have Qwashington or Richard Ash at the nosetackle position....and could go 4 man front and still have a great rush package.... 4-3 front sde vanbergen, dt mikemartin, nt qwash/Ash, rde roh/black 4-2 rush rde Roh, dt mike martin, nt qwash/Ash, Rde Black You can also slide vanbergen to dt or nt on pass rush packages...... [Title]

Output: Difference is dline personel to run a 3man front....


Input: [Date] 4 years 36 weeks ago [Body] then just count on pennst to beat msu [Title]

Output: I'll take 2 wins over wiscky and osu


Input: [Date] 4 years 37 weeks ago [Body] Avery and Talbott have played the best overall, avery looks ready to impact next yr bigtime. Talbott has had some real good plays here and there as well being in good position when he got beat a couple times as well. Best help to the db's next yr will be a vastly improved dline, namely de's. [Title]

Output: the fr played better then expected...


Input: [Date] 4 years 39 weeks ago [Body] Lewan the penalty against indiana was very questionable but the one against iowa the whistle blew and he came 4yds and blew up a guy turned away from him.... Molk had the defenseless player call, wich some of this when the play is beyond you, you just need to let it go. Christian vs nd, was going to be called even if the hit was weak, it was over a yd oob by the time he hit the player. You cannot do that and I don't care if you are a tr fr, you know from little league football oob is oob and you will get a pf for hitting a player oob. Many others, undisciplined more in play and consistency on defense I would say... [Title]

Output: some of it is undisciplined, most was not.


Input: [Date] 4 years 39 weeks ago [Body] when they got destroyed in the 1 game they did play, I would love to see it. By the way, this is a repeat of last yrs game with the only difference being Tolzien did not turn the ball over. Wisconsin whipped osu at the line on both sides of the ball 2 yrs straight now. 9 of 10 games osu loses when you get beat that bad on the line. Last yr was that 1 win when wisconsin inexplicably kept turning the ball over. [Title]

Output: If osu could win the line of scrimmage in 9 of 10 games


Input: [Date] 4 years 39 weeks ago [Body] but he gave up some coverages early he had no business giving up! [Title]

Output: That was a great interception


Input: [Date] 4 years 40 weeks ago [Body] Denard was not the same throwing the ball after his int again...it seems he got happy feet and real erratic throwing after that. Not nearly as decisive.... Tate, was erratic at times to and don't forget he threw an early pick breaking the pocket. Tate has a real bad habit of breaking the pocket right to the pressure and not sliding away from the pressure.... he is not helping his lineman out at all.... I think I want to see more designed roll out passing for both tate and denard. [Title]

Output: penalties really hurt...


Input: [Date] 4 years 40 weeks ago [Body] So yeah it killed a couple drives, it didn't make the defense give up 5tds and a fg.... and if this team must have momentum for 60minutes of every game you may as well pack your bags on this season now. [Title]

Output: btw, the calls against lewan did not give up 38pts,


Input: [Date] 4 years 40 weeks ago [Body] Also several plays again the opposing dlineman were lining up offsides and they never called it. I get tired of this as they have called this a few times against michigan and I am staring at dlineman from umass, bgsu, indiana, msu and iowa clearly with their helmets across the los and they don't throw the flag....... Holding on sweeps... is it just me or do they call this on michigan and never call it on other teams. Granted our de's aren't good but when olineman have their hands outside the shoulderpads that is holding..... 1 other, Facemask penalties. 4 times I have seen Denard tackled and a defender graze or grab his facemask and it not be called...... [Title]

Output: Crossing route td for iowa...rt did jump...


Input: [Date] 4 years 42 weeks ago [Body] You can always tell with May, he is plain as day obvious...he didn't care for Rich, didn't care for Lloyd at all as coaches, but Denard he loves and because of that he never dogs denard or the offense but does call out the defense wich face it, all of us do. Lou, he is so stuck on notre dame that when michigan wins it somehow was because of notredame doing it...... He hates michigan and you can tell. But as other posters also stated, yeah Mark May also likes getting under Lou's skin [Title]

Output: Mark May actually likes Denard


Input: [Date] 4 years 43 weeks ago [Body] ( state this saying samwebb is my boy but this is all to generate recruiting buzz for the premium service) This top recruit is going to visit, it is going to be a shock to everyone when you find out who it is......he is going to visit for ... game..... game.... Game comes and goes, no visit, doesn't happen...then comes the well..... coach got a hold of it and put a stop to it...... then they say it was a msu recruit that really wanted michigan but someone interfered and won't let them do it..... yes we know fred smith was kidnapped so he couldn't visit michigan as was charles burrell, will gholston wasn't allowed to visit as was others. Sorry I am no longer on this bandwagon of msu can stop a hs kid from visiting michigan...... BS. BTW, everyone is free to call me out if I am wrong! Don't get be wrong, I like samwebb and the crew, but this is about keeping people hanging on....and it could be recruits doing it, but I do not buy it at all....NEXT [Title]

Output: Come on guys they do this every yr....

Output: The walmart spartans are there.


Input: [Date] 4 years 43 weeks ago [Body] Including woodson, marlin jackson and many other defensive players. All had their struggles. People remember a few plays he made against osu but forget he was giving up a ton of yds and a bunch of catches till he made that 1st int vs osu....then everything changed for him confidence wise that game....wich changed everything from then on for cwood. The issue now is none of our current fr have great sr leadership out there with them. [Title]

Output: there have been many tr fr to start at michigan.


Input: [Date] 4 years 43 weeks ago [Body] was there section 9 row 17, at halftime I was walking up to hit the restroom and I hear someone yelling my name when I get by the tunnel to exit. Turns out, my cousin married an appst grad and he was there all decked out, appst gear calling me to come up and meet his friends while they all give me 2 tons of shyte!!!!!! Yep, my cousin, our family is from NKY and meet up in Michigan Stadium... and imo, this counts as a non michigan football moment cause that was not michigan football! [Title]

Output: does the horror count..that was a non michigan football game


Input: [Date] 4 years 43 weeks ago [Body] St Louis Rams at Cincinnati Bengals....2000, I think...maybe 99...... Was supposed to be a bengals win against some terrible team in st louis that had a qb starting cause the starter just got hurt in preseason. Yeah, some qb named Kurt Warner was starting who the yr before was playing for the iowa barnstormers in arena league....... That to this day is the best offense I have ever seen in the nfl games I have went to. They shredded the bengals defense (hey back then lots of teams did) but they could have scored 70pts with ease if they wanted to.....it was flat out ugly for me as a bengals fan but man stlouis was fun to watch...... [Title]

Output: Best non michigan game


Input: [Date] 4 years 43 weeks ago [Body] He seems to take on blockers better then ezeh..., strong against the run. [Title]

Output: Demens play is solid...


Input: [Date] 4 years 43 weeks ago [Body] Leaving Pryor in as long as they did and the starters before subbing, yeah osu ran the score up..., Pryor needs bigtime stats and emu is the game to get them... [Title]

Output: Osu did run the score up...


Input: [Date] 4 years 43 weeks ago [Body] With so many programs cutting players and not graduating them the ncaa instituted that apr point thing. So now the new way of getting around kicking a player off the team without losing apr is putting them on a medical scholarship. But I believe that is a 1yr deal to, if he is healthy the next yr the program either has to release them if they want to transfer or put them back on athletic scholarship.... Sec is again at the top of this list....12 per yr per team on avg.....thing is sec once they do that, they lose that player the entire yr and I don't think they are eligible to practice in spring ball either..... [Title]

Output: Yes yr to yr...


Input: [Date] 4 years 43 weeks ago [Body] I like the series with notre dame....I also like the fact that every yr this game is on abc or nbc.... You have to play games nationally televised when you can. Yes michigan is on the bigten network and nationally anyone with it can see michigan. But you also need more then espn/ as well... ABC does regional coverage and rarely national unless it is a night game. Nbc for nd is just national...so a game with nd is national.....how many recruits got to see a great game against nd that could flip back and forth and see that game if they weren't seeing something else..... Plus I still say the vast majority of fans that want to drop nd from the schedule havent' been to the game at the bighouse. These programs bring so much to the table, it is an awesome game! [Title]

Output: agree with michgoblue


Input: [Date] 4 years 44 weeks ago [Body] Recruits watch this defense and do not want any part of it...top recruits that is. It's passive, non attacking. What dline wants to play a non attacking roll, forget front 3 or 4 man dline....they want to penetrate and make plays. Lbers, who the heck wants to be a lber in a defense that does not attack at all, lets olneman come free and blast you.... Db's, 12yds off the los is so exciting! Seriously, Robinson stated this would be an attacking defense and untill they do attack and start making plays they will not land many top rated recruits. [Title]

Output: how about playing a style of defense recruits WANT to play!


Input: [Date] 4 years 44 weeks ago [Body] Umass 7 blockers, michigan 6 man front....in zone reading, not attacking and we need this guy to tell us why the lbers looked like crap! Really.... How about the dline got pushed back most every series due to doubles, then the umass oline wa scraping off to the lbers and getting right to them. Only times this didn't happen was when mike martin made a superman play or Gerg decided to blitz. Contain, who had contain cause it wasn't anyone on defense I saw..... Lbers, Roh/Mouton....didn't have contain, you guys blasted ezeh, how about he was getting both guard and full back half the time or at least the guard and I saw several plays where he shedded the guard and forced the runner but the other lbers were caught and couldn't close the backside cut either. So rip ezeh while leaving the dline alone or other lbers. In reality the blame starts with the Staff....sitting back watching them get ran over and not calling run blitz's to stop it, not going to more 4man fronts with actual size....sorry moving vanbergen into the middle isn't a 4man front, it is a repeat of last yr, undersized getting tail handed to him! [Title]

Output: Assessments are ok but honestly


Input: [Date] 4 years 44 weeks ago [Body] that makes his 4.7 40 in the north accurate..... as tomvh states 40 time gets 4fakes out of 5.... Seriously Carlos Brown ran a 4.65 at a camp in georgia his sr yr and was the fastest player there by far according to his hs coach who used to post on scout forum...so the hs recruit 40 times I see being anywhere below 4.5, I never believe, ever. [Title]

Output: really don't you think every kid runs a 4.3 40 from the south


Input: [Date] 4 years 44 weeks ago [Body] But if accomplishment is the thing woodson did more in changing the view of an entire sport from his position then anyone else left they possibly have. I know some will be way up there just because of who they are. Owens, Thorpe, magic johnson are almost guarranteed to be top ten/five as would be the president... red grange, archie griffin, dan gable there are some bigtime names and athletes in bigten history.....Lest we forget coaches Bo, Woody, Yost, Stagg, Red Berenson....many, many great coaches in programs in bigten history! But what woodson accomplished surpasses many of them, and there is no way he and even desmond howard should be remotely as low as they are. I will forever see this list as a farce because of this. [Title]

Output: the criteria was never stated for the rankings...


Input: [Date] 4 years 44 weeks ago [Body] Corners are way to soft... they need to be up, esp rogers since he is physical enough...Floyd Idk if he is good enough...or physical enough right now... DT is needed in a huge way and it cannot be vanbergen, he is not an interior dlineman, he just isn't...Barnum/Washington someone needs to be made a dt from the olineman that has some TAIL END on them...... De VanBergen, NT Martin DT (cambell/barnum/washington, someone) DE Banks/Roh Banks run downs, Roh pass rush.... But this defense is way, way to soft against the run against power formation today and my guess is they face a similar run game vs bigten teams all season long.... 400yds a game or more will not get it done in bigten play, it won't and if not fixed you can count on 6 wins at best! [Title]

Output: Corners are way to soft, dt next to martin is a must, just not


Input: [Date] 4 years 45 weeks ago [Body] or illinois game to beat michigan.... tressel has lost 3 games before the michigan game in his tenure.... [Title]

Input: [Date] 5 years 28 weeks ago [Title] That bylaw seems fairly vague [Body]

Output: That bylaw seems fairly vague to me. It states that the committee must award at least 50 percent of the championship field to conferences that meet automatic-qualification criteria and provide a play-in criteria. The remaining 50 percent of the championship field shall be reserved for at-large teams. I don't think that the bolded sections quite mesh. Are they aiming for a true 50/50 split, or are automatic qualifiers more important? On top of that there is already an exception for football, and the phrase "sufficient number of applications" probably has some wiggle room. I took that from 31.3.4.7.1 Team Sports Other Than Men’s Basketball I don't think the bylaws are a hindrance to this playoff proposal, but hopefully somebody that has a better grasp of them can explain it to me.


Input: [Date] 5 years 34 weeks ago [Title] Eh, you're just pissed that [Body]

Output: Eh, you're just pissed that you were so wrong about Izzo.


Input: [Date] 5 years 34 weeks ago [Title] I came on too strong in my [Body]

Output: I came on too strong in my original post, but Brian's take on the first Winston assault has been grating on me for a year. He's wrong in treating the first Winston fight like everything is cut and dry, when it’s really a jumbled mess. Claiming that Sturges was innocent is an example of that. Despite what the “witnesses” (fellow hockey players and their friends) have to say, he was involved to some extent. Another thing is the belief that Winston beat on Sturges so badly that he had to be hospitalized (though not mentioned in this post, Brian has mentioned it before, and it does appear to be the prevailing view on this site). Based on Sturges own words, it’s more likely that his severe injuries came from falling to the ground after he was hit. Same legal outcome, but two drastically different events. Michigan State has had 20% of its entire team involved in unprovoked violence against other students for two consecutive years. The 20% number isn’t true for last year’s fight and I think it’s an overestimation for the recent assault as well. And last year’s incident was not an unprovoked act. it seems reasonable to think that light punishment from Dantonio and the school for the first one may well have emboldened the players to do it again the second time Brian also said that the current incident was caused by last year’s incident. I think that’s quite a stretch. If they felt the punishment was light, then why the ski masks? The “light punishment” (multi-game suspension, jail time) didn’t cause the second attack; it just changed where it happened. I’m not saying any of this to justify the actions of Dantonio or anybody on the football team. Winston should have been kicked off the team last year, as should any goons involved in this year’s assault. There should also be jail time. I just think it’s funny that Brian’s attitude on this story seems so similar to the msm attitude that he regularly rails on. And why are people so surprised and pissed that Rosenberg is acting like this? Writers have to get in their licks when they have the chance because winning makes everything else irrelevant. Right now MSU is winning (yeah, 6-6 is winning for that program) and Michigan isn't. It's that simple. Win and it all goes away.


Input: [Date] 5 years 34 weeks ago [Title] Rosenberg dislikes Rodriguez [Body]

Output: Rosenberg dislikes Rodriguez and that has been obvious for quite a while. But apparently that bias draws readers, so the Freep isn't going to do anything about it. It's also clear that Brian has no fucking clue what he's talking about in regards to the incidents at State, yet he continues to talk out his ass about them. It's funny to see so much bias in a post about bias. Understandable, but still funny.


Input: [Date] 5 years 37 weeks ago [Title] Your numbers are still very [Body]

Output: Your numbers are still very wrong. I'm going to ignore the work you did for 4 year averages, because in this case, you mucked it up badly. Here are the actual average wins per season for the last 4 msu coaches: Saban 7 Williams 5.34 Smith 5.5 Dantonio 7 (assuming a 5-7 record this year) The part that confuses me the most is that you think Dantonio started with a 4 win season. He went 7-6 his first year in East Lansing.


Input: [Date] 5 years 37 weeks ago [Title] At 10-2, it seems like Notre [Body]

Output: At 10-2, it seems like Notre Dame would be pretty close to snagging an auto bid to one of those games.


Input: [Date] 5 years 37 weeks ago [Title] If Dantonio loses out this [Body]

Output: If Dantonio loses out this year, and goes winless next year, he'll still be averaging 5 wins a year for his time at MSU. What exactly are your numbers supposed to show, because it definitely isn't reality.


Input: [Date] 5 years 38 weeks ago [Title] The only real solution to the [Body]

Output: The only real solution to the replay mess is to scrap the system. Then they can (they won't) fix the clock rules and give us back the football that's been stolen from the fans.

Output: You yell at yourself for having comcast.


Input: [Date] 5 years 40 weeks ago [Title] You're Welcome [Body]

Output: Sorry for not linking that guide and forcing you to look it up. I think that the measurements and spacing requirements only apply to new stadiums, which is nice, but the no benches thing applies to all World Cup stadiums. If all of that is correct, I'm curious as to what the Big House capacity would be with seats instead of bleachers.


Input: [Date] 5 years 40 weeks ago [Title] "The wording is vague on [Body]

Output: "The wording is vague on whether bleachers are considered actual seats or not." No, it's not. From Fifa's Football Stadiums: Technical recommendations and requirements - 4th Edition: All spectators should be seated. Seats must be individual, affixed to the structure and comfortably shaped, with backrests of a minimum height of 30cm to provide support. To ensure a minimum level of comfort, “tractor-style” seats, with only a tiny flange purporting to represent a backrest, are not acceptable. The provision of backrests also helps to prevent the highly dangerous forward surge of spectators which frequently took place on the old standing terraces whenever a goal was scored and which still happens today in some stadiums where the seats have no backrests. Standing viewing areas and benches of any kind are not acceptable under any circumstances for the FIFA World Cup. There are also specifications on leg room and distance between seats.

Output: He also didn't know that the suspect, identified as a 17-year-old former student at Hillsdale, was armed with a chainsaw and a sword with a 2-foot blade. How did he not know?


Input: [Date] 5 years 48 weeks ago [Title] Based on location in the AP [Body]

Output: Based on location in the AP and Coaches others receiving votes category, I'd say that it's mid to high 50s. Even with such a marquee name, that's going to be difficult to overcome.

Input: [Date] 5 years 48 weeks ago [Title] Didn't that only count QBs [Body]

Output: Didn't that only count QBs who missed games to injuries? At the bare minimum, I would expect a starting QB to miss a couple of series per season due to some sort of injury.


Input: [Date] 5 years 48 weeks ago [Title] Leak and Tebow did not share [Body]

Output: Leak and Tebow did not share the QB job at Florida. I don't think that a true two QB system has ever worked, but more than one QB will definitely see the field this year.


Input: [Date] 5 years 48 weeks ago [Title] It's 12 games over 10 years, [Body]

Output: It's 12 games over 10 years, so they aren't going to be playing all 3 in 1 season. http://www.ncaapalace.com/component/sports/michiganstate/ncaaf/futuresched Not a complete future schedule, but you can see that State has some games with South Florida, Alabama and West Virginia mixed in as well.

Output: I think it's probably U-verse. Their captioning is a pain in the ass to use.

Output: "Hitting someone in the head who isn't provoking you, looking at you, in any way interacting with you, or even aware of you so hard that his brain bleeds is 100% reprehensible and indicative of some severe emotional or psychological issues." That's not what happened.

Input: [Date] 6 weeks 6 days ago [Body] Kid might be super smart, but that highlight reel only showed him needing to remember 2 routes. A TE out and a TE cross. I think the only time he caught something different was a out that he shaded upfield because there was no safety over the top. [Title]

Input: [Date] 16 weeks 6 days ago [Body] How long will it take IU to fire Crean? When they do and get a competent coach in there, they would be my pcik... assuming of course they continue to recruit like they have been.

Input: [Date] 29 weeks 5 days ago [Body] His job isn't to decide which recruits to offer, never has been and isn't going to be. That is a coach's job. He's not a coach despite being referred to as one by the recruits. [Title]

Output: Not really


Input: [Date] 29 weeks 5 days ago [Body] Singletary is in the office and on the job right now. IF he isn't going to be retained, everyone might want to adjust their recruiting expectations down for the near future. He is the connect to recruits, let's just say it'll be a rough transition without him. [Title]

Output: On the Job


Input: [Date] 29 weeks 5 days ago [Body] He did scouting for IMG to target which college players the agency wanted to go after. Plus, he predated Hoke and though I could be wrong Rich Rod. He's one of Lloyd's guys and he's the one who's been keeping the few recruits we currently have connected to UM. I seriously doubt he's on the way out. [Title]

Output: I Agree


Input: [Date] 29 weeks 6 days ago [Body] I too have taken notice of the Non-nude but still NSFW avatars lately. Never considered myself an old fogey, but the person at the desk next to mine is a woman. That's not a good look for a workplace. And for those of you questioning why you would be on a sports blog at work, you must never have worked in an office. People don't work 100% of the time in the office. There are studies that show that taking a break every hours or so makes you more productive. [Title]

Output: Noticing it more


Input: [Date] 41 weeks 6 days ago [Body] Just a little FYI, Q. Washington is also a member of Omega Psi Phi and was initiated while he was on the football team. Now seeing a 300 lb D-lineman performing that "hop" during a game would've been priceless. [Title]

Hint: It's the same thing that is shared with Kennard's AAU team, the King James something or other. Yep, you guessed it, it's the swoosh. He is a Nike recruit and will go to a Nike school. It would be a shock if he doesn't choose the swoosh. It's all about the sneaker money. BTW, this is not an indictment against our Adidas contract, just an observation. [Title]

Output: Awesome


Input: [Date] 1 year 27 weeks ago [Body] Richard Sherman is the best corner in football and was the best corner on the field last night. The 49ers treated him like Deion Sanders and just avoided whatever side of the field he was on until that last play. I am just curious why everyone here is all butt hurt that he had a Darius Morris moment. "Get the F@#@ off my court!" He is far from a thug, even though he did grow up in Compton and has dreads and for a few moments was a load black man. He is not in need of media training, I will point to that Stanford Communications degree for that. He is cocky, he is arrogant, and he is the BEST corner in the NFL. [Title]

Input: [Date] 2 years 14 weeks ago [Body] Izzo's style is going to continue to win games as long as he is coaching. Same with Bo Ryan, that is until they start calling fouls in the B10 the way they do in the ACC. [Title]

Output: Agreed


Input: [Date] 2 years 14 weeks ago [Body] They had an in-season transfer, so adding the second commit is not a surprise. Adding a commit that was originally a Minny signed isn't exactly stealing commits from Middle Tennessee State [Title]

Output: Transfer


Input: [Date] 2 years 15 weeks ago [Body] I would agree that in the past THJ took a lot of bad shots, but this year that was not the case. A lot of the shots he missed in the tourney were on drives and foul line area jumpers, those are not bad shots. Sure he missed some in the offense 3's, but they were in the offense and not bad shots. Label him a streaky shooter if you like, but he (at least this year) was not a poor shot taker. [Title]

Input: [Date] 2 years 17 weeks ago [Body] Just curious about this selection of the team, was it just for the last two games? Because McLemore was horrible until the Michigan game. Stauskas was only great for one game. I think Timmay was more deserving than Nik. As for MOP, Burke was a dominant point guard and the engine for the best offense in the region. [Title]

Output: Just the last two games?


Input: [Date] 2 years 17 weeks ago [Body] As a father now, this was even sweeter than the Fab 5 or 89 teams since my son was watching by my side. I never expected a 20 point win, I felt like I was in shock the entire game. [Title]

Output: HAIL


Input: [Date] 2 years 18 weeks ago [Body] My childhood rooting interests were Sparty except when they played Michigan. So even though I loathe the current state of Spartan fandom, I will be rooting for them and the B1G. I want an all B1G final four. That is the absolute best thing for the league and my team. Plus it will be the ultimate shutthehellup to Barkley. [Title]

Output: My brackets say Sparty

Input: [Date] 2 years 23 weeks ago [Body] Now I have to spend a significant portion of my day actually considering the random thoughts of Jose Canseco. Specifically, what internet blog did he find his theories on? Because there is no way he came up with that lucid a theory by himself. [Title]

Output: Gee Thanks!


Input: [Date] 2 years 24 weeks ago [Body] I'm sure knowing that you will be back in your home state for a game your freshman year is not a downside. Not sure how much of a factor it played, but it is a good point. [Title]

Output: Probably didn't hurt


Input: [Date] 2 years 24 weeks ago [Body] Chris worked for IMG Football after graduating Michigan. He left them for the job he has now. [Title]

Output: Not quite


Input: [Date] 2 years 25 weeks ago [Body] Everyone around here realizes that when Commitapalooza occured last year, the interwebs were all aflutter with talk of Michigan cheating. No one here would believe that, so why do we assume that Ole Miss is? Nkemdiche has a brother on campus that lead the team in tackles. Treadwell has Standifer, who lest we forget, was the person that first brought Treadwell to Michigan. Connor went to high school in the area. And that DT out of JC was an Ole Miss recruit before he had to go to JC. The story on the rest is easy, get them all on campus at the same time, and have the top guys recruit the other top guys. I'm not saying there is no possibility of 'extra benefits' - likely of the female variety - but there are also reasonable explainations for the recruits as well. [Title]

Output: Pot meet Kettle


Input: [Date] 12 weeks 6 days ago [Title] everyone loves 100 degrees and 95% humidity in june too.. [Body]

Output: Seriously Name one person that vacations in Georgia? Savannah is it, and the reality is it's the only thing in Georgia to stop and see... Athens, yes, because everyone wants to live in the middle of the deep south 4hrs from a beach, 105 degrees, 95% Humidity and then at night it's still 85 degress and now 99% humidity. Oh and it gets better, when you walk outside, your instantly covered in sweat, not the good kind because it's so humid it forms a layer of slime on you. Georgia, cause everyone loves having to stay inside all day in the summer cause it's a 1000 degrees and you can't cool down cause your pool is 95 degrees..........Yeah, been there and as I said one place to visit and that's it.


Input: [Date] 13 weeks 2 days ago [Title] Not surprising [Body]

Output: Nussmeier is the new OC at Florida, for a new staff and most recruits are quite familiar with the Alabama run game's dominance under Nussmeier as OC so there is no doubt that was sold to him. Add to that, our staff already has 3 rb commits even if two of them end up at fb ..... that's crowded for one class alone without adding a 4th rb.


Input: [Date] 13 weeks 5 days ago [Title] Remove Helmets [Body]

Output: Remove Helmets and start taking money out of players pockets for leading with their heads. By removing money I mean, suspension for intentional helmet hits, offensive players too for droping their heads for hits. And not the same as the drug policy but after so many personal fouls for helmet to helmet up the suspension to 2 games no pay. Then force players to sit for caused concussions resulting from an intentional helmet to helmet hit, ie a caused concussion equals 2 games for the offending player. Also, get even more strict on the launch hits. I still see a number that aren't called. It's the only way to fix the issue. The other thing, any failed ped tests should limit liability for this. I still say believe players are juiced and it's a major cause for the severity of injuries, namely head injuries in football. Players want the nfl to pay for head injuries then they should subject themselves to even more ped testing.


Input: [Date] 18 weeks 6 days ago [Title] kentucky...vs the field, take kentucky [Body]

Output: Imho officiating would have a lot to do with Kentucky losing. Meaning this team just bullies opponents inside. So, unless we get a crew that is calling a tight game against a solid shooting opponent like Duke, Virginia, Wisconsin, Arizona and maybe a couple others, Kentucky is going to roll this tournament. Kansas, being the next best team in that bracket is weak. They don't play consistent ball at all and do not have a player capable of taking over a game against Kentucky. If they make it at all. ND doesn't have the size to stay with kentucky so they get rolled if they make it. By bracket, Kentucky is automatically in the final 4, so imho it's a 2 game tournament for Kentucky.

Output: He would sell the field to a donor who believes the grass is Tradition... Well, in that case he should have sold the hs level scoreboard too!


Input: [Date] 1 year 16 weeks ago [Title] The spring game/practice [Body]

Output: The spring game which is realy a glorified practice is not the place to determine anything about the 2014 team. Talk to anyone that has attended an actual practice to tell you the story rather than reading something from someone who never attended any of the practices. Don't take too much out of spring because after spring summer workouts and fall camp you will then find out who has put the time in all off season. Spring you get some info on what is going on. Best news out of spring is the dline looks far better as a group right now and the players fitting the responsibilities of the 4-3 over better has payed off for them. So, we will wait till the first game of the season and see how that matches up. O Line has been hit/miss but will wait and see again.


Input: [Date] 1 year 17 weeks ago [Title] Heck is a great coach [Body]

Output: Funny and intense. Very good technically and demands those guys block. Should see blocking video they had of gallon, he embarrassed a lot of corners and safeties thinking they would take him. Finally happy about where the wr corp is skill wise compared to the lats 6yrs...


Input: [Date] 1 year 17 weeks ago [Title] Win respect [Body]

Output: In sports you earn/win your respect. Florida is getting respect due to how they are playing and the fact their coach has to titles. They have done it. Ky is getting respect because the program is tops in bball, and they just won a title 2yrs ago and have top talent now, just very young and you see them growing up infront of us this tournament and the sec tournament. Michigan, hasn't seen a ton of respect this tournament namely becuase the 3 stars from last yr's run are either in the nba, or injured now, mcgary! So looking at our games agianst msu and wisconsin it's obvious our team can be pushed inside. Hence, tennessee being the popular pick due to their length at the perimeter and strength of their inside game. Msu, getting a ton of respect now getting their top inside players back and msu looking like an izzo team again. Like ky, they are playing very well and the team has taken big steps the last few weeks. Hence they became the hot pick to win it all. Wisconsin, has beaten 2 teams nobody thought they actually would given the matchups. Big10 just earned a ton of respect all 3 beating teams that were considered tough matchups for each team. All 3 into the elite 8! They won the nations respect as a conference. I'll say this, it doesn't matter who wins the national title as far as conference strength is concerned. I never got that arguement... alabama wins in football to me has no bearing. Fsu won it in football this yr and doesn't remotely convince me that the acc was the best. This yr sec 0-2 in bcs games and acc is 2-0 with the national title...who here thinks the acc is a better football conference? Same in basketball... Florida could win the tournament or kentucky, wouldn't remotely convince me the sec is a better bball conference than big10, big12, acc or pac12!


Input: [Date] 1 year 20 weeks ago [Title] Tried centennial, like two hearted much better [Body]

Output: Never heard of CJ's, right now way to many craft brews out to try them all. Being from Cincy I am trying to get through all the local breweries that have popped up as well as some of the top national craft brews. Bells, Centennial, 3 Floyds, Michigan is well represented nationally..., I have heard there are a few more to try that arent national. Cincinnati has, Madtree, 50 west, Rivertown, Rinegheist, Mt. Carmel and a few others that are just excellent breweries! Still, I always find my way back to Sam Adams Boston Lager and Guiness.......


Input: [Date] 1 year 20 weeks ago [Title] Me, nobody, maize man, not sure, [Body]

Output: All I can tell you is I have been to spring practice with maizeman, know him and he does work for the athletic department which is how he is in. He expresses his views from what he see's. Coachbt, he is a hs coach from the toledo area that attends every coaches clinic and also gets to attend a couple practices as a result. Eroc, knows maizeman and has gone to many practices via maizman. They all have developed relationships within the athletic department. I have met many other posters that attend the coaches clinic, that have ties to the athletic department via friendships of ad employees, former players, coaches and boosters. Know a couple that are big boosters. Am I an insider, not remotely. But as I stated last yr I did go to a couple practices with maizeman and know very well he has access to the staff, players and practices as it isn't a claim it is a fact. The guys that want to insult my writing, wgaf what you think, I shared something I have actually seen, know and witnessed. You, you bitch and complain about others who shared and wasn't trying to charge anyone money for doing so. So, wtf ever


Input: [Date] 1 year 20 weeks ago [Title] You don't know what I thought! [Body]

Output: I stated an undefeated osu should have been in over a 1 loss sec team. That I stated, that I believe of any bcs team. If you are going to post my thoughts at least know them. I stated the sec is over rated in that 1 loss sec teams deserve to be in the title game over undefeated teams. Get your head out of your tail about my thoughts.


Input: [Date] 1 year 20 weeks ago [Title] and you guys insult their writing….. [Body]

Output: And you guys insult their writing and analysis. Kind if does... reeealllyl.... I went to spring practice last yr with maizeman. He does have access. The two practices I saw last yr, Ross was playing awesome and was the best defensive player on the field. I got to see Countess doing drills and knew last yr was going to be rough as a man corner for him. Offense, Darboh and Chesson looked better than Funchess....and you didn't see Gallon do anything. Jake Ryan was on crutches and he was everywhere encouraging the defense and lbers.... So, while you all accuse them of knowing nothing I can vouch for them not that it means anything as I don't personally know any of you all. But, everything i saw fit to what happened last season. Run game sucked, interior oline just wasn't what I thought it would be and the dt's were a work in progress. Honestly last season I was fooled by the nd game though. I thought they would lose that game and end up with 10 wins losing to either Osu or Nw as the other loss opposite nd. I thought nd was better than what they showed in that game. Ross was not close to the player he showed in spring, Darboh's injury really hurt, oline burzynski's injury really hurt. Bosch was the best technically of all the tr fr and rs fr oline, however Braden was physiclaly awesome and starting at LG all spring. That was last yr... So, reports on spring practices remember, they are practicing against their own team and get used to the calls of the other side of the ball and the player infront of them. So, you have to take it with a grain of salt and realize the reports are just that. Mixed opinions of what they see. I was at practice and had some disagreement maizeman's analysis. But that is also why I try to put what coach bt says along with maizeman and come up with what's in the middle. Both attend practices, both know the coaching staff far more than you guys would like to admit. So sit back, enjoy your beer threads, btw, bells two harted, madtree gnarly brown and guiness are still the best beers on the planet!


Input: [Date] 1 year 27 weeks ago [Title] Have known a few d1 players that used. [Body]

Output: All of them said the same things. Coaches push them to get better, if you only were bigger, if you were just a bit stronger if you were quicker, faster.... Always pushed them and compared to best players on the team. Natural right... the message would be clear, get better or go elsewhere... it's up to you... They would make sure they knew well in advance of testing. Don't fail the tests, we don't want any athlete failing tests... this is when the test is... don't fail the tests.. continually repeated over and over adnauseum. They would also say, you could tell who was and who wasn't. Abnormal weight gain is not going from hs s&c to college elite s&c. Normal weight gain is about 15lbs of muscle over 1yr period of time. 20 can happen but he had to work out a whole heck of a lot more than just the last 4 months from january through spring ball!!! Guys putting on weight is normal, 25+ lbs of ripped shredded weight and he is juiced! But there are a lot more ped's than just testosterone. Hgh, blood doping for endurance, beta blockers for focus that many qb's will use, students will use... which I have no problem with.. but they all use them.


Input: [Date] 1 year 33 weeks ago [Title] What desmond said is right.. [Body]

Output: All that said, it doesn't matter urban was never going to suspend any other player further! Either the big ten was going to, uhmm nope, or it wasn't happening so we all knew it wasn't happening.


Input: [Date] 1 year 33 weeks ago [Title] ad ... [Body]

Output: Is the increase for more support staff needed? I wouldn't think everyone just received a 62% pay increase though some may have been given a pay increase to match the going rate of their position. In that case it is needed... for any and all. For me the questions are.. Is the ad financially living within the budgets set? Are they making more money than they are spending? Are building for the success of the athletic programs now and in the future? And last, with the expansion of the athletic campus and all the related projects have they been able to meet the financial burden of those projects and continue to sustain for the future. The obvious to that is yes. It has to continue as well. I am sure that Brandon and company see what concerns the donors/alumni/ticket holders have. I would bet they will be quick to back off it they reach the tipping point. Something was posted on another board via an alumni function last spring where Dave Brandon spoke. At length he spoke about the goals of winning the bigten, bcs and national title in football as the best ways to increase revenue and the last one by far has the biggest impact. He cited the effect it had on other universities that have won football national championships and how much it increased cash flow into the athletic department of those schools. So, that is the goal.....


Input: [Date] 1 year 34 weeks ago [Title] Consider, Michigan hosted them [Body]

Output: Our school hosted them, allowed them field passes for the game which is impossible to get and got face time with Hoke on the day of the game. The family, osu fans/grads yeah they could have taken the osu hats off but who cares about that to be honest. imho it showed michigan is above all that!


Input: [Date] 1 year 34 weeks ago [Title] Remember that game... [Body]

Output: Such a huge win and those players all came up big! Rewatching that game I forgot how beat up the team was. LT Backus didn't play, adami was playing injured and quite immobile. Howard was out, streets was battling a hammy. Forgot all about that........ Reminds me of how good they were to keep overcoming everything. On offense, overcame some bad turnovers and field position the 2nd half. Got enough points with limited offense and still won. Defense just took over that game!


Input: [Date] 1 year 44 weeks ago [Title] steveinpa [Body]

Output: Far too many athletic depts have done this and pro teams as well...... A friend of mine a 20yr season ticket holder for the bengals of all teams had good seats and paid the psl when they built pbs in cincy. He paid that psl and then got moved to lesser seats only to find the corperate buyers were buying blocks of good seats and he got moved as a result...add to that, they didn't refund the difference in the psl they charged to the rate for the seats he was given. I haven't heard michigan do this to season ticket holders yet so long as they paid the donation...however it has been done I am sure. Really sucks.....


Input: [Date] 1 year 44 weeks ago [Title] you are talking about fans [Body]

Output: who are illogical anyway.............................that would have been the response of many fanbases around the country no matter the university. Heck, athletes get accused of rape and I see message board posters saying the girl deserved it, led him on, what ever else.........you get alot of fair responses...........my response always is, lets wait to find out what actually happened, if he did it, by all means put him in prison and let the legal system handle it.....if he didn't do it, lets not assassinate his character, but lets not do that till we find out.


Input: [Date] 1 year 44 weeks ago [Title] I somewhat agree here but.... [Body]

Output: You used ohio st... so lets review... Ncaa investigates and there is clear evidence that the Head coach lied, covered up student athletes actions to keep them eligible to win more football games to make a bcs bowl or bcs championship game. Ncaa, did they follow their own by laws to punish ohio st? No, they let ohio st walk with minimal penalty as the head coach clearly broke the rules. What did ohio st do, they fired the head coach and said this is all on him. Ncaa what did they do, they gave minimal punishment and didn't at all charge ohio st with the crime of lack of institutional control as defined by a coach knowing about extra benefits and hiding them. No, they got minor charges a few scholarships and a 1 year bowl ban. So, now let me add, North Carolina with proven academic fraud, Auburn had a players family take nearly $200,000 that we know and the ncaa dismissed the investigation, Oregon paying people to send recruits to their school, Miami fl and that fiasco and several more I am forgetting to mention............................... The ncaa cannot even keep it's own house clean and yet you and everyone else thinks it's okay for them to punish pennst for something that didn't involve a single student athlete, or coach at the university. Now, before you rip me, Sandusky was not a football coach when the known incident happened. Now, the ncaa jumping in on this is like the department of education going and grabbing a drug dealer and stealing, ie fining him every dime he has because he sold drugs on school grounds before the fbi could arrest him.............it isn't their jurisdiction no matter the crime commited. Even worse it was obvious what the ncaa's motive was, and it sure as heck wasn't to do the right thing. The right thing Pennst, should have settled immediately with all victims and offered every victim full tuition education or pay off all student loans for those who already had grown and gone to college. Pennst should have offered to pay for or repay all expenses for therapy incurred to the victims. IE, pennst needs to make it right for the victims completely, that is the right thing to do. Ncaa, had no business in this, they had no intention of doing any thing right for the victims and their fighting with the state of pa over the 60million proves I am right. They thought they had a money grab and I am glad the state of pa shoved that right up the ncaa's arse and said no, that money will stay in state and go to childrens charities. Pennst the unveristy should pay a price, but rather it's football or not idk, I first and foremost believe the punishment should have come from the dept of education and dept of justice to put away those responsible and then put down further punishment on the university as they saw fit.


Input: [Date] 1 year 44 weeks ago [Title] I don't feel bad for pennst, nor am I crying a river for them [Body]

Output: But I thik it's retarded to punish the football program and fanbase, alumni and everyone else involved with football or the university that had zip to do with this, which is everyone outside of the few people that actually knew and 4 in charge that could have done something about it. The rioting that is the football culture of not wanting to believe the icon had something to do with covering it up. A case, although extremely weak that paterno reported it to superiors is true but he also was proven to have influenced not reporting it to 2nd mile and to the state police and arresting sandusky......so that blows that out of the water. My opinion of Joepa is forever changed as his rep was built on great character the do it right kind of person to lead young men. That's gone, but it doesn't mean the university shouldn't be able to move on and build what should have been. Pennst deserves punishment and has got that punishment from the ncaa, I just don't think the ncaa had any business or place doing it. IE, they went to clean pennst's house and they can't even clean their own as though they had moral authority. Tell me when the ncaa went to nd, msu or any other campus to investigate sex crimes alleged by athletes? The dept of justice and dept of education are the entities that should have handled this and should have told the ncaa to get out of their way period. On another note, before anyone goes high moral standard about pennst and covering this up, the very reason the laws about reporting sex crimes on any federal funded university, high, middle or elementary school is in the books is because of this very reason. How many times have we heard complaints over the years of colleges sweeping rapes under the rug to keep crime statistics down. That happened at so many places across the country it is disgusting, and just as disgusting as what happened at pennst. Or athletes raping girls and getting away with it and the girls intimidated or forced to leave school for their safety all to protect the program because said player may help them win games. Those are the reasons these laws do exist. But has the ncaa ever investigated one of those that are actually involving student athletes? Never, so a case they had no business in they jumped on for media attention and a 60 million dollar money grab. Yes that money was forced to stay in the state of pa and that was after the state told the ncaa it wasn't allowing that money to go elsewhere as all funds at psu are considered state funds if the university is to pay out money. The ncaa in it's briliance tried to argue it was athletic dept funds not univerisity funds. So you see where their real motive was!


Input: [Date] 1 year 44 weeks ago [Title] I realize my opinion isn't popular that's fine [Body]

Output: From 2002 Pennst, namely the 4 people who allowed it are culpable. Not the 40,000 who had nothing to do with this as they can't do a dang thing about rumor or innuendo, but the people who had real knowlege, Spanier, Shultz, Paterno, McQueary and his dad and one other I am forgetting could have, should have and didn't! They are the ones to be punished, put in prison for a cover up. Punishing the football program and saying the ridiculous things about blowing up the stadium is just retarded. It doesn't do a dang thing to fix what happened or punish the actual cuplprits. As they are the ones who allowed Sandusky to use the brand, facilities and anything else. 60million was only to stay in the state for children after the state of pa said it wasn't leaving and told the ncaa as much. Ncaa tried to fight it, so what does that tell you about their motive. 2002 was a real incident, no more rumor and inuendo. And the people that covered it up need to pay the price, I will always say that. They deserve prison as well, all of them. Just like anyone who knew a Michigan professor was harboring child porn....should pay the price. Not the pennst program that had nothing to do with this.


Input: [Date] 1 year 44 weeks ago [Title] Ncaa is full of it and needs to be sued! [Body]

Output: Ncaa was way out of bounds to punish PSU as not one single by-law was broken regarding student athletes. Second, Ncaa had zero interest in what was right. They saw a money grab, ie $60 million dollar fine! For what? To go to who, to do what with? Tell me I am wrong cause they sure as heck was not giving a dime of that money to the victims. Not one person of the 4 who knew of the incidents are around at all. NCAA went back to 1998 which was bs because that investigation found nothing and Sandusky was forced to step down. There was nothing anyone could do legally at that point. The legal system coudln't do anything so what was pennst going to do other than what they did at that point. 2002 the McQueary deal, from then on Jopa and company were responsible for covering up for a friend. It had nothing to do with protecting football as the ncaa had no boundary. And if paterno turns in a friend then and the chief of campus police acts, they are hero's for doing the right thing.....and what would have happened to football? Nothing, so stop the bs it was to protect football it was to protect a life long friend by joepa. Pull your heads out of the cloud that the culture of football did this, it was one friend protecting another cause nothing else was on the line. That happens every day in our society across many fronts including criminal. Ncaa is a joke, I hope pennst sues and wins against the ncaa. Now, Pennst deserves to face what ever punishment as a university from the Dept of Education for not reporting this as required by law. But again, why punish anyone and everyone who is not there for something that they didn't do. Who deserves to be punished. Joepa, and the other 3 that covered this. Not the 40,000+students and facualty. Not the football players and coaches that have nothing to do with this. And I read tear down beaver stadium, seriously. Michigan just had a professor with child porn that wasn't immediately reported, uhmmm do you want to destroy the entire university and rip building down by building for this? Cause that is illogical thinking. Oh, Sandusky, lets not forget, he is the criminal and deserves life in prison and everything that goes with that. EIther general population or solitary, idk either way......


Input: [Date] 1 year 44 weeks ago [Title] just say it [Body]

Output: Glassgow didn't help chip, push the nt, Miller was beat at the snap by the nt, the de gets upfield and holds contain forcing the play to stay inside. Kalis is lost and doesn't know wtf to do and doesn't block anyone.... If Kalis sets the backside block there is a cutback for Fitz and a good lane there as well. If Glassgow helps chip on the nt and gets the nt flowing without penetration then he can scrape to the lber. If Kalis blocks his lber or finds someone to block there is a cut back. If the TE gets to the de and doesn't let him penetrate the hole to go through is either much bigger or there is room for Fitz to bounce. No matter what, this play was blown up from the snap! This happened all game long!


Input: [Date] 1 year 44 weeks ago [Title] Frazier was one of the most successfull [Body]

Output: Players in Husker history! 2 national titles, a 3rd nc game that was a missed fg from winning 3 straight and would have been 3 straight undefeated seasons! There is no doubt he has the ears of the husker fanbase and boosters/alumni! But, Tom Osbourne isn't the head coach and this isn't the days of the husker option attack. Actually, they got rid of Solich 2yrs too early as they could have waited this thing out and they would have been running the Read Option spread game better than anyone! Instead they ditched all of it, all of their old recruing grounds for Callahan! They need a head coach and assistant coaches that have recruiting cache again that can grab texas talent like they used to. Pelini, he could be a dead man walking if they don't compete for a bigten title!

Output: Lots of brass, lots of music loudly...btw, my wife asked what cartoon music they were playing when they started the nd victory march....I busted out laughing cause she had no idea and was serious.


Input: [Date] 1 year 46 weeks ago [Title] No way Saban leaves Bama [Body]

Output: Texas will likely be open as will Usc. Also consider Saban's family, they moved from East lansing to baton rouge in 2000, to Miami in 2004 to Alabama in 06/07, I don't think the family wants to move and establish all new relationships right now........with all new unreal expectations in a building process, again. Jmho, Saban has reached the summit of coaching in college and the only thing left is the nfl and he isn't going back.


Input: [Date] 2 years 6 weeks ago [Title] what is the measure though? [Body]

Output: What are their measures though? IMO the measure should be for 3 types of games... #1 Biggest Rival game, what is the atmosphere or what ever the biggest game every year is.... #2 What is the normal atmosphere for a conference game, the avg game say iowa or northwestern, solid opponent. #3 What is it for the gimme games.... is the place dead or are the fans still rocking..... Pennst has the best atmosphere for a big night game, and imho that is best in the country. That said, I think Michigan's night game for ND was better than Osu's big night game for Texas or Usc... that said, Osu has a great atmosphere and nobody can deny that. I will say this, Pennst has the most fun fans in cf, I have been around them for games at Michigan and seen them at Happy Valley and they have a good time. Osu fans are just overall pissy either way... good atmosphere but man they live and die with each individual play... and their games against bad opponents that place is a tomb...and most are. Michigan #1, osu/nd environment is entirely different, namely osu... far more intense for a home game against either of these teams. #2 Very middle of the pack in the bigten for an avg home game...crowd gets loud for 3rd downs and intimidating but why not on 1st, 2nd, 3rd and even 4th down... Seriously... Osu/nd crowd is intense every play, every down....but not for the avg team.... #3 Lets never play eastern again...nobody wants that game and fans barely stand for the victors... I don't care what they say, in 2007 the attendance was not 100,000, I would put it closer to 80,000..........so middle of the pac of bigten teams here as well. Michigan, basically for Big games.... is up with Pennst, and Ohio st for best envirionments....for #2 and 3 avg about #5.... Bigten overall #1 big game environment.. Pennst, Michigan, Ohiost and Nebraska as tops... #2 avg conf opponents Wisconsin, Pennst, Ohio st, Nebraska, Michigan, Iowa in order... #3 Wisconsin, Nebraska, Pennst, Ohio st, Michigan, Iowa.... Jmo but those are the order and it changes based upon opponent... Measureing Pennst's biggest night game to a noon game for michigan against iowa is not a measurement of environment... Otherwise just compare same game situations...


Input: [Date] 2 years 7 weeks ago [Title] I just quit carrying that burden.... [Body]

Output: 2011 was incomplete only because of the state yr. And, I know many will laugh because our team was no where near ready for it....but consider the fact that they were literally a couple plays from being undefeated..........Iowa was quite literally 2 plays... and Msu was the same, quite literally a couple plays.......... None of us would have thought they were ready but...from my perspective at that time it let me put the burden down of the RR era.. Also, I carry nothing from 2004 - 2006 I really didn't. From 2007 though, it felt like an eternity...like being on the ship going down and you can't fix it.....you know you have a life raft and will be fine but you can't fix it.............that was 2007-2010 for me...............


Input: [Date] 2 years 7 weeks ago [Title] others [Body]

Output: Virginia, Vatech, Washington/Wazzu..Oregon/Oregon St, Cal Stanford, zona / asu and others. Best instate though is Bama, Auburn for intensity... but overall I can't think of a great instate with the competitive balance of good great programs.


Input: [Date] 2 years 7 weeks ago [Title] IIRC, Tressel was out if he didn't beat Michigan [Body]

Output: Osu alumns felt they had a better team than 6-6, most felt they had a 9 win team and possibly better with Cooper.. So to go 6-6 in year one under tressel and lose to Michigan they were feeling was a step back from Cooper to make things even worse. Wots I heard is tressel was told beat michigan or else. That said, Henson, had he returned Michigan was going to a bcs bowl and a few things gone right could have played Miami in the title game.....though that miami team was sic, I don't know anyone would have wanted to play that team....but Henson, Terrell and Walker ....I would have taken that shot.....


Input: [Date] 2 years 7 weeks ago [Title] Something is wrong about this..jmho [Body]

Output: I agree with ND not releasing him. But it seems like something else is up, otherwise why sign the loi in february only to want out a few months later. It is good for nd not to let him out of his loi instead sending out the message to all recruits that the school they sign with can do this. Basically, sign with the school you want to play for and make sure you know before you sign.


Input: [Date] 2 years 7 weeks ago [Title] Would rather dominate post season list! [Body]

Output: This list is ok, but innacurate in many ways. Schofield is at least 2nd team, period. I cannot name 3 right tackles better, I can't name 2 in the bigten right now. James Ross, Imho ends up 1st team. Washington or Pip one ends up 1st team....jmho there as well. Clark / Ojemudia, one of them will be there as well..... and imho Taco ends up fr all american. Darboh / Chesson, one of them ends up 2nd team all bigten! Funchess... ends up 1st team all bigten and by virtue of the receiving core all together, Gardner ends up 1st team all bigten this yr,


Input: [Date] 2 years 7 weeks ago [Title] Ok, so what do they get from the lannisters? [Body]

Output: Guess that gets covered next week.....I get why the Lannisters would seek them out, with oppertunity and all....but Frey wants to marry off children to other houses and the Lannisters promised off 2 and only have 2 of Cersi's kids and one of them promised off already....... Should be fun, but either way, this is leading to an epic war with the dragon queen, lannisters and the other dude now..........and of course the greyjoys are coming back into the mix
