Input: [Date] 4 years 29 weeks ago [Title] bob stoops terrible example! [Body]

Output: 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......


Input: [Date] 4 years 31 weeks ago [Title] pay athletes and don't give them a scholarship.... [Body]

Output: 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!


Input: [Date] 4 years 33 weeks ago [Title] A few things... [Body]

Output: 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......


Input: [Date] 4 years 34 weeks ago [Title] 1 wr did make that difference vs florida for osu... [Body]

Output: 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.


Input: [Date] 4 years 35 weeks ago [Title] fyi, a yr older, more depth and more talent [Body]

Output: 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....


Input: [Date] 4 years 35 weeks ago [Title] sec screwed the iron bowl.... [Body]

Output: 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....


Input: [Date] 4 years 36 weeks ago [Title] right personel helps to start.... [Body]

Output: 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.


Input: [Date] 4 years 36 weeks ago [Title] he should be suspended for calling a specific [Body]

Output: 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!


Input: [Date] 4 years 36 weeks ago [Title] calm down on the chop block.... [Body]

Output: 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....


Input: [Date] 4 years 36 weeks ago [Title] Ummmmmm partly correct. [Body]

Output: 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!


Input: [Date] 4 years 37 weeks ago [Title] Difference is dline personel to run a 3man front.... [Body]

Output: 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......


Input: [Date] 4 years 37 weeks ago [Title] I'll take 2 wins over wiscky and osu [Body]

Output: then just count on pennst to beat msu


Input: [Date] 4 years 38 weeks ago [Title] the fr played better then expected... [Body]

Output: 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.


Input: [Date] 4 years 40 weeks ago [Title] some of it is undisciplined, most was not. [Body]

Output: 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...


Input: [Date] 4 years 40 weeks ago [Title] If osu could win the line of scrimmage in 9 of 10 games [Body]

Output: 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.


Input: [Date] 4 years 40 weeks ago [Title] That was a great interception [Body]

Output: but he gave up some coverages early he had no business giving up!


Input: [Date] 4 years 41 weeks ago [Title] penalties really hurt... [Body]

Output: 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.


Input: [Date] 4 years 41 weeks ago [Title] btw, the calls against lewan did not give up 38pts, [Body]

Output: 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.


Input: [Date] 4 years 41 weeks ago [Title] Crossing route td for iowa...rt did jump... [Body]

Output: 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......


Input: [Date] 4 years 43 weeks ago [Title] Mark May actually likes Denard [Body]

Output: 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


Input: [Date] 4 years 44 weeks ago [Title] Come on guys they do this every yr.... [Body]

Output: ( 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


Input: [Date] 4 years 44 weeks ago [Title] They do this every yr, some player will visit and it will shock [Body]

Output: everyone...he is going to visit..... 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!

Input: [Date] 4 years 44 weeks ago [Title] The walmart spartans are there. [Body]

Output: However company policy does not allow for a sparty jersey to be worn while on the clock.....


Input: [Date] 4 years 44 weeks ago [Title] there have been many tr fr to start at michigan. [Body]

Output: 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.


Input: [Date] 4 years 44 weeks ago [Title] does the horror count..that was a non michigan football game [Body]

Output: 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!


Input: [Date] 4 years 44 weeks ago [Title] Best non michigan game [Body]

Output: 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......


Input: [Date] 4 years 44 weeks ago [Title] Demens play is solid... [Body]

Output: He seems to take on blockers better then ezeh..., strong against the run.


Input: [Date] 4 years 44 weeks ago [Title] Osu did run the score up... [Body]

Output: 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...


Input: [Date] 4 years 44 weeks ago [Title] Yes yr to yr... [Body]

Output: 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.....


Input: [Date] 4 years 44 weeks ago [Title] agree with michgoblue [Body]

Output: 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!


Input: [Date] 4 years 45 weeks ago [Title] how about playing a style of defense recruits WANT to play! [Body]

Output: 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.


Input: [Date] 4 years 45 weeks ago [Title] Assessments are ok but honestly [Body]

Output: 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!


Input: [Date] 4 years 45 weeks ago [Title] really don't you think every kid runs a 4.3 40 from the south [Body]

Output: 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.


Input: [Date] 4 years 45 weeks ago [Title] the criteria was never stated for the rankings... [Body]

Output: 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.


Input: [Date] 4 years 45 weeks ago [Title] Corners are way to soft, dt next to martin is a must, just not [Body]

Output: 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!


Input: [Date] 4 years 46 weeks ago [Title] dantonio learned that at osu....give up the purdue game... [Body]

Output: or illinois game to beat michigan.... tressel has lost 3 games before the michigan game in his tenure....


Input: [Date] 4 years 46 weeks ago [Title] that week sucks period for the schedule.... [Body]

Output: top out of conference games that week Boise vs oregon st, west virginia vs lsu.......those are the only 2 non conf games worth mentioning...all the rest flat suck sec has conference games started up so they have a couple good matchups.....

Output: Thanks again to everyone.


Input: [Date] 3 years 48 weeks ago [Title] I'm on my phone so don't kill [Body]

Output: I'm on my phone so don't kill me for the formatting. Or maybe do for old time sake.


Input: [Date] 3 years 50 weeks ago [Title] I confirmed that with his dad [Body]

Output: I confirmed that with his dad today. His dad said as far as he understands he'll be able to play right away, rather than redshirting. He may redshirt anyway because he's a freshman, but they think he'll have instant eligibility.


Input: [Date] 3 years 50 weeks ago [Title] Kalis actually blamed himself [Body]

Output: Kalis actually blamed himself for the injury. He said he only drove his guy six yards off the ball and Orlosky caught up to him.


Input: [Date] 3 years 50 weeks ago [Title] Kalis said via text that he [Body]

Output: Kalis said via text that he just tweaked his knee, his teammate Tyler Orlosky rolled up on him while he was driving his guy. He said he'll be back in a few days.


Input: [Date] 3 years 50 weeks ago [Title] Thank you, it was cool to see [Body]

Output: Thank you, it was cool to see the ultrasound today. I think some people thought we had the baby today but it was just the anatomy ultrasound.


Input: [Date] 3 years 50 weeks ago [Title] From whatCaleb Stacey and his [Body]

Output: From whatCaleb Stacey and his coaches have told me I think he will end up at center. He's already been working at center this summer.


Input: [Date] 3 years 50 weeks ago [Title] He's also really smart. He [Body]

Output: He's also really smart. He would be one of my top choices if I could pick an offensive lineman in this class.


Input: [Date] 3 years 50 weeks ago [Title] I don't know who reported [Body]

Output: I don't know who reported that but that was never the case. Garnett actually told me early on that he thought Zach was looking for different things in a school than he was. They were never a package deal. Garnett said to me that it would be cool if they ended up at the same place, but didn't think it would happen.


Input: [Date] 3 years 50 weeks ago [Title] I wouldn't argue with that. [Body]

Output: I wouldn't argue with that.


Input: [Date] 3 years 50 weeks ago [Title] I confirmed that with him. [Body]

Output: I confirmed that with him.


Input: [Date] 3 years 50 weeks ago [Title] Not too cryptic though, I [Body]

Output: Not too cryptic though, I just think Michigan has a chance. He told me a few things off the record so we'll see. He is still planning to visit for the ND game.


Input: [Date] 3 years 50 weeks ago [Title] He told me that Penn State is [Body]

Output: He told me that Penn State is in there too, but ya know, the third team in a top two probably isn't in great shape. I know there have been rumors about Cal, but don't discount Michigan here.


Input: [Date] 3 years 50 weeks ago [Title] Sorry you can't hear me very [Body]

Output: Sorry you can't hear me very well on the video, Jake had the microphone. I also missed one of his best catches during practice. He had a 30 yard over the shoulder catch and I was busy gabbing with his dad on the sidelines. I should have that catch and more highlights soon though.


Input: [Date] 3 years 50 weeks ago [Title] Just commenting for the Tom [Body]

Output: Just commenting for the Tom tab.


Input: [Date] 3 years 51 weeks ago [Title] And just to add, even if [Body]

Output: And just to add, even if something were to happen with Terry (not implying anything), it's my understanding that they would look to fill that spot with another corner. It has more to do with the current roster. Obviously that can change, especially if the numbers don't add up, but that's the thinking right now.


Input: [Date] 3 years 51 weeks ago [Title] I spoke with him earlier [Body]

Output: I spoke with him earlier today, I'll have his quotes in the Weekly Update on Monday.


Input: [Date] 3 years 51 weeks ago [Title] No, just defense for now. [Body]

Output: No, just defense for now.


Input: [Date] 3 years 51 weeks ago [Title] Eastern Michigan was a [Body]

Output: Eastern Michigan was a planned stop on the trip for his teammates.


Input: [Date] 3 years 51 weeks ago [Title] The Diamond's were taking [Body]

Output: Mrs. Diamond was taking Jordan's teammates around with Jordan to different schools and they recently stopped by Eastern for his teammates. It's right next door so they probably stopped by to say hi to Chris. There's nothing wrong with Bryant, he's just good friends with the Diamond family.


Input: [Date] 3 years 51 weeks ago [Title] No, I don't think so. They're [Body]

Output: No, I don't think so. They're in to check on Chris Bryant.


Input: [Date] 3 years 51 weeks ago [Title] I've said multiple times that [Body]

Output: I've said multiple times that this has nothing to do with Terry. They want another corner in addition to Terry and Anthony. This also isn't because Standifer projects to safety. They want another corner.


Input: [Date] 3 years 51 weeks ago [Title] I'm supposed to call him [Body]

Output: I'm supposed to call him tonight.


Input: [Date] 3 years 51 weeks ago [Title] No, I don't think he meant [Body]

Output: No, I don't think he meant fans calling. I'm sure he meant analysts calling to ask if he committed, or if he's committing soon.


Input: [Date] 3 years 51 weeks ago [Title] Yeah, he has interest in [Body]

Output: Yeah, he has interest in Michigan. I didn't get to talk to him last night though. I was out there for their practice but it started raining pretty hard and there was lightning right above us so everyone scattered pretty quickly. It's monsoon season here right now.


Input: [Date] 3 years 51 weeks ago [Title] Just a FWIW, his coaches are [Body]

Output: Just a FWIW, his coaches are pro Big Ten guys too. They like Michigan and the Big Ten teams.


Input: [Date] 3 years 51 weeks ago [Title] I don't know why everyone is [Body]

Output: I don't know why everyone is debating what this decision has to do with. Armani said in the interview why they want another corner. That's why, not because of anything that has to do with Standifer or Richardson.


Input: [Date] 3 years 51 weeks ago [Title] There is potential for some [Body]

Output: There is potential for some more names to come in the picture I suppose. I know they really like Armani, but if they're looking for an elite corner they will probably talk to a few prospects.


Input: [Date] 3 years 51 weeks ago [Title] He was very clear on the [Body]

Output: He was very clear on the phone that they want him for defense.


Input: [Date] 3 years 51 weeks ago [Title] It's the second post on the [Body]

Output: It's the second post on the front page. Unless I'm missing your sarcasm font.

Output: not have been fired. Do you think Saban or Meyer would be fired? Also, Bear was a well known boozer and I'm sure many others. It was the cops who recorded the arrest and release to the public that did him in.


Input: [Date] 12 weeks 4 days ago [Title] Do you really believe an OSU [Body]

Output: or even an MSU QB would be smart enough to figure out the affects of psi on the charachteristics of ball flight?


Input: [Date] 12 weeks 6 days ago [Title] And it's exacerbated [Body]

Output: by the inability to pay the student loans due to poor job prospects caused by worthless majors-the barista with an art history major.


Input: [Date] 13 weeks 4 days ago [Title] Always drink [Body]

Output: upstream from the herd.


Input: [Date] 13 weeks 6 days ago [Title] The Cialis commercials [Body]

Output: and I'm sure to call my doctor at 11:00 pm if I have a four hour boner.


Input: [Date] 14 weeks 6 days ago [Title] The problem with [Body]

Output: being a wrestler and a qb too for that matter, is that at some point your hands will smell like butt.


Input: [Date] 14 weeks 6 days ago [Title] PC pussy [Body]

Output: Briant Gumbel did not like that comment. Maybe he prefers flag football.


Input: [Date] 15 weeks 1 day ago [Title] Or "fuck up" [Body]

Output: somewhere else. That would be perfect grammar.


Input: [Date] 15 weeks 3 days ago [Title] Not crazy, but memorable. [Body]

Output: My wife and I were at the Big House on a very hot day many years ago. A couple rows ahead of us a woman was completely wasted, about to pass out. My wife had a tupperware container with ice in it (back when you could do that) & passed it down, thinking the ice would comfort her. You guessed it, she immediately threw up in it. The coupple then left (we did not ask for the tupperware back). Our good deed for the day.


Input: [Date] 15 weeks 4 days ago [Title] Do you need a degree to do [Body]

Output: her job, I mean, couldn't a "college drop out do her job"?


Input: [Date] 16 weeks 6 days ago [Title] Maybe "powder" [Body]

Output: and "nose" are code words. Give the man a break.


Input: [Date] 17 weeks 2 days ago [Title] It's not [Body]

Output: a racial slur when you are talking about your own race. I have Polish friends who call each other Polaks & laugh about it, but I can't call them that. Poor metaphor since we are of the same race, but similar.


Input: [Date] 17 weeks 4 days ago [Title] The next thing he'll [Body]

Output: get is a pizzeria in Columbus.


Input: [Date] 19 weeks 5 days ago [Title] GUARANTEED [Body]

Output: to be the best burger you ever ate.


Input: [Date] 20 weeks 4 days ago [Title] Go early [Body]

Output: and sit in the top row on the periphery or elsewhere on the periphery. No one will know you are in the student section or care.


Input: [Date] 20 weeks 4 days ago [Title] Why would a [Body]

Output: bank take a mortgage on 370 homes built on an unstable earthen dam?


Input: [Date] 21 weeks 3 days ago [Title] Poster boy for [Body]

Output: the dreaded male camel toe.


Input: [Date] 21 weeks 3 days ago [Title] The thing about JH is that [Body]

Output: he really, really appreciates excellence, no matter where he finds it. Remember the story of him watching a traffic cop in SD for an hour because he was so good at it. I think we got the right guy.


Input: [Date] 21 weeks 6 days ago [Title] Can't imagine how much they [Body]

Output: would hate him if he had won the Super Bowl.


Input: [Date] 21 weeks 6 days ago [Title] Counter to the Hoke [Body]

Output: era-put his eggs in one basket and very few eggs at that.


Input: [Date] 22 weeks 1 day ago [Title] Um, depends on your time line. [Body]

Output: Every year we go to FL before spring break. The stories I hear from security and even grocery store employees about the damage, theft & drunkeness by college kids during spring break seems far greater than years ago.


Input: [Date] 22 weeks 2 days ago [Title] Plastics, invest in plastics. [Body]

Output: Actually Vanguard Dividend Growth has served me well over the years, no load & low fees.


Input: [Date] 23 weeks 5 days ago [Title] Looks like strategically [Body]

Output: covered nudity if there ever was any.


Input: [Date] 23 weeks 5 days ago [Title] As a test, I'll [Body]

Output: post strategically uncovered nudity.


Input: [Date] 23 weeks 6 days ago [Title] Of all pusses [Body]

Output: a sour puss is the worst kind of puss and I'm talking about Dantonio.


Input: [Date] 23 weeks 6 days ago [Title] "Little Brother" was [Body]

Output: a childish, offhand comment that will live in infamy, responded to with an even more childish comment by a coach who should have known better. All generations of both teams will live & die by that one comment. Other than that, it didn't mean shit.


Input: [Date] 24 weeks 1 day ago [Title] But he's driving a [Body]

Output: Vette with OSU plates . . .


Input: [Date] 24 weeks 3 days ago [Title] Well it does look [Body]

Output: like they did a reverse staple job. . .


Input: [Date] 24 weeks 3 days ago [Title] It's not like he [Body]

Output: does not know where his next meal is coming from; my guess: The Old Country Buffet. (I confess I stole that line from Wojo when George Perles was canned at Staee.)


Input: [Date] 1 year 9 weeks ago [Title] Replace Hockey [Body]

Output: Replace Hockey with baseball and I agree! However, I would never begrudge someone for liking what they like. Who am I to tell someone they should only like Football and that the sports they like suck? To each their own and if being a baseball/softball fan makes you happy then I'm happy for you. I never understand people posting in the softball threads just to say the sport sucks. Just move on and let them enjoy it.


Input: [Date] 1 year 14 weeks ago [Title] Columbus? [Body]

Output: I'm curious, and not trying to be a dick, but I can't figure out how a Michigan fan can root for any team from Columbus? I started playing hockey about six months ago and also started watching at the same time. I have been trying to choose a team to root for and since I live in Cincinnati most of my friends urge me to follow the Jackets but I can't do it. I graduated from Michigan in '03 and just can't get myself to root for the Jackets.


Input: [Date] 1 year 14 weeks ago [Title] GoT [Body]

Output: I love the Walking Dead so you should watch that too but Game of Thrones is possibly the best series on television at the moment. I just started it about a month ago on Project free TV and I couldn't stop. I'm caught up to the live airings now and season 4 could be the best yet and it's only two episodes old.


Input: [Date] 1 year 15 weeks ago [Title] Not the whole Alabama line [Body]

Output: Just one player. Chad Lindsay would really help this offensive line if he chose Michigan.


Input: [Date] 1 year 15 weeks ago [Title] Selling? [Body]

Output: They probably just showed them film of Amir Williams playing.


Input: [Date] 1 year 19 weeks ago [Title] I disagree [Body]

Output: I think we should disrespect our rivals any chance we get. This just isn't funny. I commend the OP for effort but he just swung and missed this time. But I'm not one who down voted it either so maybe you are correct in that sense


Input: [Date] 1 year 20 weeks ago [Title] I use J-Date! [Body]

Output: I use J-Date!


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

Output: While this is true, there has to be something above simply having hope. I know many use the term "realist" as opposed to being negative but as a fan don't you feel you should have real expectations? Are the Pistons going to win the NBA championship this year, or any time soon for that matter? No. But we can still have hope that they will be good, instead of spouting delusions of grandeur every preseason. The majority of my friends and family are Cleveland fans so I have to deal with it constantly. Let's not forget that most of them are also delusional Buckeye fans but at least that team is good. *Sorry to any Browns/Michigan fans for that last jab but it's not completely false. And for formatting as this is from iPhone


Input: [Date] 1 year 23 weeks ago [Title] I'm sure [Body]

Output: That this is the final piece to their championship. Now things will get better #allclevelandfans


Input: [Date] 1 year 23 weeks ago [Title] Michigan Man! [Body]

Output: The term may be over used but Jordan Morgan is a wonderful representative of this great University. I am very glad that he chose to stay and complete his career as a Michigan Wolverine! Congrats to Jordan as this is well deserved


Input: [Date] 1 year 24 weeks ago [Title] Well that's implied [Body]

Output: Because everyone murders people


Input: [Date] 1 year 25 weeks ago [Title] This is true [Body]

Output: I'm a Knicks fan but the only reason I watch is for THJ. I can't stand Melo and I gave up all hope of them truly competing when they brought him in. I hope he holds true to his threats to leave in free agency. He's the biggest waste of talent in the NBA today. Sorry I got lost in my Carmelo hatred rant, Go Blue!


Input: [Date] 1 year 26 weeks ago [Title] That Baseball [Body]

Output: Is America's pastime!


Input: [Date] 1 year 28 weeks ago [Title] This^^^^^^^ [Body]

Output: 1000x


Input: [Date] 1 year 28 weeks ago [Title] I hope [Body]

Output: Cleveland drafts him and he is a huge bust! I really hate that city and I'm not real fond of Manziel either


Input: [Date] 1 year 28 weeks ago [Title] It will never happen [Body]

Output: But I firmly believe that if you don't win your conference then you should not be able to make the playoff. Now if there were more than four teams then yes you can get in without a conference championship. People keep saying that the playoff will take away from the importance of the regular season but if you have to win your conference to get in then the regular season is as important as ever.


Input: [Date] 1 year 28 weeks ago [Title] No big deal [Body]

Output: They ain't come here to play class anyway


Input: [Date] 1 year 31 weeks ago [Title] Also [Body]

Output: Did he meow like a cat? Still my favorite post game presser rant.


Input: [Date] 1 year 32 weeks ago [Title] Am I too late for the [Body]

Output: Am I too late for the posbang??


Input: [Date] 1 year 32 weeks ago [Title] App? [Body]

Output: Is it possible to get the voting system on the app? I'm sure I'm not the only one that uses the app for 90+% of my mgoblog experience.


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

Output: But isn't soccer the number one sport for concussion issues? Maybe I'm wrong but if not then that doesn't make much sense


Input: [Date] 1 year 33 weeks ago [Title] You realize that we [Body]

Output: have two commits from that school already, right? Watson and Canteen are both from Eastern Christian Academy so I would not be upset if we could pull Sills as well. Not likely but would be a nice get


Input: [Date] 1 year 33 weeks ago [Title] Some people [Body]

Output: Hate just to hate. They don't like something and feel that others are dumb for liking said thing. So they have to make a point to try and make those others feel bad for liking a sport or whatever it might be. I admit I am not a fan of soccer but it's USA versus the world so of course I would root for my country. I feel the same way about the Olympics and baseball but you won't see me comment in a baseball thread about how boring the game is. To each his own and if you enjoy something then don't let the haters bring you down. Go USA!!!


Input: [Date] 1 year 33 weeks ago [Title] Maybe it's just me [Body]

Output: But I would rather see another SEC champion than an Ohio champion.


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

Output: I'll always be a football first guy but hockey shooting up my list. Being a goalie certainly isn't as hard on my body. I'm getting old(er) and still enjoy the competition but I like not being sore the next day.


Input: [Date] 1 year 33 weeks ago [Title] Fellow goalie here [Body]

Output: Just picked it up actually. Friends have been playing for years and have been asking me to join them. Played football through college and semi-pro but never any hockey. I took to it quite well actually and once I got the skating down my skill level increased very quickly. Never watched a hockey game before either but I am really enjoying it. Watched the Ohio game last night but I still don't know much about the game. I know this really has nothing to do with the topic but I'm loving hockey and this is the first time I've gotten to talk about it here.


Input: [Date] 1 year 37 weeks ago [Title] Thoughts and prayers... [Body]

Output: for you and your family in this tough time. I can't imagine what you must be going through but we will keep you in our thoughts and prayers. I'll also hug my wife a little longer and tell her how much I love her, and I recommend everyone else do the same with their loved ones, because you never know when something will change your life forever.

Input: [Date] 1 year 47 weeks ago [Title] HE16MAN2198 [Body]

Output: Try that one


Input: [Date] 1 year 49 weeks ago [Title] What about Furman? [Body]

Output: Maybe I overlooked it but I didn't see him mentioned in the 2010 class. Shouldn't he be the tenth "enrolled"? He is still on the team, isn't he?


Input: [Date] 8 hours 46 min ago [Body] For that Notre Dame night game a couple years ago, when Gardner came out in the 'ole 98, I got chills......it was awesome, it was unique, and it was MICHIGAN doing it. We've always been leaders rather than followers. I would like to see the Legends program continue on, but obviously thats not going to happen........But that being said, maybe they just started it too big, too fast. We could have easily set up a single game, or a string of home games, where we honor the Legends. (can a player switch numbers for a single game?) That way the player is not always playing in the shadow of a legend, and is given the chance to make a legend out of himself. [Title]

Output: I have to admit


Input: [Date] 5 days 2 hours ago [Body] I just don't have it. Until I see that it won't work, it's hard for me to not imagine that it will work.......very well [Title]

Output: I can appreciate your optimism


Input: [Date] 5 days 2 hours ago [Body] My bad. Thanks for the help! [Title]

Output: You're right......


Input: [Date] 1 week 12 hours ago [Body] This year is over for the D Start building for future [Title]

Output: They need to sell Ausmus


Input: [Date] 1 week 1 day ago [Body] But, unfortunately im at work. If I had to choose the winner I would pick Speith, because I would love to see him win all 4. At the same time, I would like Sergio to get one as well......He's been so close so many times. Zach Johnson really could use another major win to validate the green jacket that he won. Should be a great finish [Title]

Output: I would love to be at home watching this all go down


Input: [Date] 1 week 5 days ago [Body] have anything to do with ESPN's award to Caitlin Jenner? Serious question [Title]

Output: Does him leaving


Input: [Date] 2 weeks 1 day ago [Body] I would love to see an LFL game at the Big House! [Title]

Output: By stealing all publicity


Input: [Date] 3 weeks 12 hours ago [Body] sucked the wind right outta their sails after winning a championship!!! [Title]

Output: We kind of have sucked.........


Input: [Date] 3 weeks 12 hours ago [Body] But, rumor has it that Nike just agreed to make us the highest paid school.....that doesn't suck. What does SUCK is that even after you win a champioship, your rival (who has had a few down in the dump years) still gets more respect. That has to SUCK [Title]

Output: Very well could be


Input: [Date] 3 weeks 6 days ago [Body] He's just building a resume for the nfl /s [Title]

Output: Not really


Input: [Date] 3 weeks 6 days ago [Body] He made it very clear that Brady & Laura Hoke were very good friends of the family and that he has the upmost respect for the work that he has done at the University. So, then CC has him on and asks him "Whats the 1st thing you had to change at Michigan?" It was a 2 sided question, and I don't think JH liked the direction or directions he was going [Title]

Output: From Day 1, in his 1st Press conference


Input: [Date] 4 weeks 4 days ago [Body] Is how she plays off the ball rather than on, and it's evident right now with her not in there IMO [Title]

Output: The value of wambach


Input: [Date] 4 weeks 4 days ago [Body] That's a head scratcher [Title]

Output: No wambach?


Input: [Date] 8 weeks 12 hours ago [Body] Can't wait to see what advantages will be in that rewards club! [Title]

Output: Can't wait to see


Input: [Date] 8 weeks 5 days ago [Body] That is great advice! [Title]

Output: Thanks


Input: [Date] 8 weeks 5 days ago [Body] But I was throwing that out there because, as I said the clubs around here are kind of all in limbo because the premier thing is being pitched to pretty much players on all 3 club teams around me. Now, if I wanted to get him on another club, I could do that but there would be some commuting on my part just because it would not be a local club. The biggest thing I left out was that all clubs have their try outs in a 3 day window. And my family will be out of the country on trip, so I don't have the luxury of just trying out for all the different clubs [Title]

Output: sorry, the post was a little unclear......


Input: [Date] 10 weeks 5 days ago [Body] Do we stand a chance with him? [Title]

Output: How about Miles Bridges?


Input: [Date] 14 weeks 1 day ago [Body] so quick about JH. One day, he's the best coach ever, and the next (When he happens to be coaching Michigan) he's crazy and pushed us too far. [Title]

Output: A bit odd that he changed his tune


Input: [Date] 16 weeks 6 days ago [Body] Just to watch the winners run. LOSER! [Title]

Output: Harbaugh will bring him in


Input: [Date] 16 weeks 6 days ago [Body] I'd say that's a sure sign of interest on both sides [Title]

Output: Uh....we had him here on a visit?


Input: [Date] 18 weeks 1 day ago [Body] Very close friend to the Harbaugh family [Title]

Output: Maybe Willie Taggert @ USF?


Input: [Date] 18 weeks 4 days ago [Body] with the recent warm up...... So, I'll play I realized about 3-5 years ago that I am not at the level of skills that the equipment is going to make a HUGE difference. Infact at that point, I ditched 2 year old TM's for a set of 12-14 year old DCI's and I love the DCI's still. But now something I am starting to realize is the more into my 40's i get, the more need for graphite shaft is there. When I was in my 20's, I would swing out of my shoes.....literally. Can't do that anymore unless I want to spend the rest of my day with ice packs and heating pads. So, when I do get new clubs in a year or 2, I will be getting the Cleveland Hibores with a graphite shaft. [Title]

Output: I have a serious case of "the bug"

Output: Obviously JH is trolling DB


Input: [Date] 22 weeks 1 day ago [Body] Do these comments make you feel better about yourself? Just curious [Title]

Output: Why?


Input: [Date] 2 years 51 weeks ago [Body] Same here on the West Coast. Back home in MI we used to play Euchre tournaments all the time for big money. Once I moved out here, everyone looked at me like I was crazy when i wanted to play. I have also found the Euchre can sometimes be a rather difficult game to explain to people. It's almost as if it's ingrained in your blood if you were born there. [Title]

Output: Same here on the West Coast.


Input: [Date] 3 years 6 weeks ago [Body] I am confused. There is one picture of the other side of those gold pants that has the initials. Is it just me or does it look like there is a giant phallic-looking object coming out of the pants? It may just be the end of a long work day but it seriously caught me off guard. [Title]

Output: I am confused. There is one


Input: [Date] 3 years 9 weeks ago [Body] I just have a hard time justfying a lot of the extra cost of the area. Go to the bar, pay 7-10 bucks for a mixed drink and 5-8 dollars for a beer. That's a long way from some of the bars i used to go to back home where it was 3 dollar wells and 2.50 20 oz beers all day every day. Fuel, groceries, and many other necessary items are also inflated. Now true, recruits don't have to deal with those types of things, but still, it's not an easy route. Then again, when i was 17 years old if you had told me, "hey, you can live here where it's 80 degrees year round and all the girls look like models" i would have probably overlooked a lot of wrongs as well. [Title]

Output: I just have a hard time


Input: [Date] 3 years 9 weeks ago [Body] The weather is hard to beat...take that as a fact from a Michigander who moved out here a couple years ago. However, the one thing I have never understood is how USC covers up the fact that the neighborhoods directly bordering campus are pretty crappy. I mean, sure there are probably bad areas around any large University Campus to some extent, but it's really not that nice. I would much rather hang around and explore the areas around AA than USC any day. Plus, anyone who has visited downtown LA or Hollywood can tell you that it's nothing near what most people think it is. Much dirtier, much less sexy than the mind would have you believe. Just my two cents on a Tuesday morning. [Title]

Output: The weather is hard to


Input: [Date] 3 years 14 weeks ago [Body] Depends on the manner of intake. Sure, smoking a joint would be more or less like a cigarette (actually probably more tar) and would have adverse effects. However, using a vaporizer that actually cools the smoke and mixes it with water vapor would have much less of an effect. Of course, if you wanted zero lung guilt and all of the high, they could always go with edibles, which would just be like eating a brownie or a sucker. [Title]

Output: Depends on the manner of


Input: [Date] 3 years 14 weeks ago [Body] I think the main thing to be worried about here is the munchies though. As bad as having a player suspended is, putting on all the bad weight due to late night runs for Funions, Cheetos, and Doritos would be the real dowside to weed use [Title]

Output: Very valid argument.....


Input: [Date] 3 years 14 weeks ago [Body] ...when I saw that. I was about half way up with my friends at the show when it popped up, an we all weren't sure whether to cheer or take a knee to have a memorial. It was definitely a creative way to pay tribute and to set their show apart from the other acts during a somewhat disappointing line up for Coachella's standards. [Title]

Output: I kinda messed myself....


Input: [Date] 3 years 22 weeks ago [Body] Same here. Been reading the blog for probably a year and a half or so, but really only post once and a while when something comes up that i feel i can actually add some decent commentary to. I do check the blog pretty much once an hour every day, on the hour, for the entire 12-15 hour work day. [Title]

Output: Same here. Been reading the


Input: [Date] 3 years 22 weeks ago [Body] I have noticed the same thing with some of my teenage nephews and nieces. I know that I use a computer and phone more than i should, but they are just silly how dependant they are with it. I tried to make them turn off their devices as well, and they about shit themselves with fear! I sometimes like to detach from the electronic world. I generally leave my phone on silent on the weekends, try and only look at it once or twice the entire time. Or go on a hike to somewhere that gets zero service. Nice to be away from it sometimes. [Title]

Output: I have noticed the same thing


Input: [Date] 3 years 22 weeks ago [Body] I completely agree for personal travel, and believe me I always go that route first. However, there are sadly not too many flights out of Burbank that go to the UK, which was the case not the other day. That is the curse of having to go on last minute overseas trips! [Title]

Output: I completely agree for


Input: [Date] 3 years 22 weeks ago [Body] True, but it generally tends to be more expensive to fly BUR to GRR than it does to fly from LAX to say MDW or ORD. I end up getting sent on work stuff last minute, so that is why i end up there a lot more often. Not at all saying I hate living here, just a change that takes some time to get used to i guess. [Title]

Output: True, but it generally tends


Input: [Date] 3 years 22 weeks ago [Body] I am over 21 and I agree that both are in the wrong here, as in my opinion the correct way to handle it would have been to discuss these types of grievances (sp?) behind closed doors. My Dad always used to say that you praise in public and discipline in private, and I believe that's a good way to go about it. A lesson can be taught and learned without needing to shout, use violence, or punish severely. However, I think had he even tossed the computer in the trash or even hit it with a hammer, the reaction would not have been as bad as him using a gun. While I don't agree with his tactics, I understand why he did it as I have grown up with guns all my life. My dad did the same thing to some of my stuff actually, got the 16 gauge out and blasted away at a couple of playboys he found under my bed. For us, guns were tools and were used as such, even sometimes for a satirical demonstration such as this. I see why he used the gun, and I really think he should probably have thought about the broad reach of his audience. Show that clip in certain locations, and you will get a bunch of laughing and back slapping for a job well done. Show it in a different area, and you have the cops on the way. In the end however, I could definitely see where his daughter got her attitude from. I personally would have made mine work for the money to install the upgrades on the laptop instead of giving them to her, would have made her appreciate the whole thing more anyway. [Title]

Output: 2 cents


Input: [Date] 3 years 22 weeks ago [Body] Once you actually move to Cali, you will understand a little better why it is disliked. For me growing up over on the west side of Michigan on the farm, this place is about the most backwards place I have ever seen, and i have been out here for a couple of years now! Probably has a lot to do with everything being expensive, everyone being somewhat fake, and having to deal with a lot of commuter/traffic issues that you wouldn't normally see. Just the other day it took me three hours to get from LAX to Pasadena, which is only about 25 miles or so away. Very frustrating. [Title]

Output: Live here for a while.....

Output: Correction.....


Input: [Date] 3 years 35 weeks ago [Body] I don't know that i would call Allendale "out in the boonies". Believe me, there are far more "Boonies-ish" places than that in the area. The community, while small, has slowly grown outward a bit and has updated from when i was born there back in the mid eighties. It's no GR, Detroit, or AA, but it's still not miles from civilization. GVSU isn't ever going to be the best of anything, but for the money, it's a pretty damn good school. Entrance requirements have gone up over the last few years, which have weeded out some of the less serious students who solely want to go to college to party. I took a good look at them just solely becuase of the proximity (5 minutes) from home, although I ended up at Hope in the end. [Title]

Output: Boonies?


Input: [Date] 3 years 35 weeks ago [Body] Yes, we west siders decided that it should be Meijer's as opposed to meijer....not sure why that ever happened. I lived in Allendale for the first 24 years of my life, and never once did i hear someone refer to it as just Meijer. HAHA [Title]

Output: Darn Right....


Input: [Date] 3 years 39 weeks ago [Body] I was thinki about that the other day as well. Not sure if he has hands or not, but he would be one heck of a corner fade target in the red zone with his height and speed. Could be a really cool wrinkle to add. [Title]

Input: [Date] 3 years 39 weeks ago [Body] I do agree with you on that note, maybe I took the hockey analogy a little to literally. I think we will see fight out of the boys yet though. Just like when you first get hassled by the bullies at school, you learn to adapt and how to beat them the next time. [Title]

Output: I do agree with you on that


Input: [Date] 3 years 39 weeks ago [Body] I say good for him. Anyone would need time to begin righting that ship. Let a good guy who has passion for the game go out and try and make it happen. I will certainly pull for them to win more and more every year (excluding all contests agains Michigan) [Title]

Output: I say good for him. Anyone

Output: Bravo on the Les Miles


Input: [Date] 3 years 39 weeks ago [Body] I think if we wanted to "fight back" we should have done it by beating them soundly in the game of football. Sure a push here and shove there don't hurt too much and might express dominance, but where's the line drawn? Fighting is a part of the game of hockey and is allowed to a certain degree, but it is not in football and back in the days of Sir Charles and Mr. Ray, they may have jaw jacked and tried to phycically dominate guys, but most importantly, they beat their opponents at the game of football. However, I do agree that some of the play calling could have been better, and we did get pusehd around and beat up quite a bit. The fact that this is THE GAME from Sparty's persepctive means their always going to give us their best, and we need to rise to that calling ourselves in years to come, which I believe we will do. We have recruited some very solid players along the line this year, and with Pipkins committing as the highly ranked stud DT (although I would have liked to see another DT commit myself), we will be in a great position to win those physical battles for years to come. I feel your pain man, but trust me, the pendulum is going to swing back to our side very soon. [Title]

Output: I think if we wanted to


Input: [Date] 3 years 39 weeks ago [Body] I love how that article also says how Kelly insisted the getting a BCS berth was, "never the main goal" and that the dangling of that carrot was just a sound byte. Love to see the back tracking going on to justify less than stellar coaching and performance. [Title]

Output: I love how that article also


Input: [Date] 3 years 39 weeks ago [Body] Some interesting information below on the histroy and usage of the free kick in NFL situations compliments of Wikipedia. Looks like it hasn't been overly successful but has been used a few times. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fair_catch_kick [Title]

Output: Some interesting information


Input: [Date] 3 years 39 weeks ago [Body] I agree with above. Onward and upward for us. I think that Michigan is actually in an interesting situation as we have been humbled in a lot of different ways over the last 4 years or so. The Horror, the entire 08 season, Toledo, continued losses to tsio and MSU. These are things that we hadn't necesssarily experienced before. However, now that we have, I think we have a chance to remain more level headed and also more aware of how to never take anything for granted. You can be sure that those Seniors out there don't want their last season to end that way, and many of them have learned through those items above as well. I have a great feeling they are going to turn up the intensity to a whole new level and bring us some amazing memories in the weeks to come. GO BLUE!!! [Title]

Output: I agree with above. Onward


Input: [Date] 3 years 39 weeks ago [Body] I actually for the most part agree with you. I can sleep in, wake up and make a more hearty breakfast than the "grab something and run out the door" weekday version, and then sit down at the coffee table with a huge mug of coffee and enjoy my weekly "Breakfast with the Wolverines".

Input: [Date] 3 years 41 weeks ago [Body] I am with youo there indeed. This year's ND game saw me open a fresh pack for kickoff and saw the last one get polished off after my run around my house to celebrate the win. I actually spent most of the second half watching the game through my living room windows as the GF refused to bend and let me smoke inside one time. [Title]

Input: [Date] 1 year 25 weeks ago [Title] Taxable.. [Body]

Output: Scholarships,football scholaships and basketball scholarships, probably should be taxable now. However, I completely agree with LordGrantham, and have made the argument to several colleagues that if this current movement for doing away with the notion of 'student athlete' to one of an student employee, deserving of 'fair' compensation persists, then too comes the dreaded tax man. It isn't hard to calculate the financial benefit that the student athlete receives. For a school like Michigan, easily > $30k p/y. If this is treated as compesation to the student 'employee', the student would be required to pay taxes on that amount. Also, this could have a profound effect on the student's parents, who are likely still claiming this 'well compensated' individual as a dependent.


Input: [Date] 1 year 28 weeks ago [Title] Mario Cristobal - OL? [Body]

Output: If Michigan can manage to grab Mario Cristobal for the OL coach, that would be a huge recruiting coup. MC was the mastermind behind Rutgers recruiting success under Greg Schiano and he recrutied both TY Hilton and Jonathan Cyprian (Jacskonville Jaguars starting safety) to little known FIU. He has huge huge ties to South Florida and is regarded as a masterful recruiter. Previously was head coach at FIU.


Input: [Date] 1 year 33 weeks ago [Title] X1 [Body]

Output: The difference between the PS3 and the PS4 is that the PS4 has better internals. Interface wise, the PS3 and the PS4 are very similar. The upgrade from PS3 to PS4 is not that significant because game play hasn't changed between the two consoles. The difference between the Xbox 1 and every other gaming machine is very significant. I have my cable box plugged directly into my XBox and I use my Xbox 1 controller (or Kinect) to control everything. I can go from playing a game to watching TV without ever havign to put my controller down. On Saturday, I was watching the Alabama/Auburn game while using the ESPN app to scroll through all the other games that ESPN was showing...using my Xbox. The sheer amount of things that you can do with an Xbox 1 is staggering. Plus, Microsoft is indicating that the apps available on Windows 8.1 will be available on the X1...crazy. Video game programmers didn't need more processing power to make video games. The Xbox 360 and the PS3 both had more than enough power to do everything that video game makers wanted to do with video games. After a certain point, game companies start losing lots of money trying to make a game too complicated. While the graphics may be better on the new systems, I don't expect to see a huge jump in actual game play between either the PS4 or the X1.


Input: [Date] 1 year 44 weeks ago [Title] Get in the hole [Body]

Output: Fitz is not hitting the hole hard at all. He's looking at the blocks before he even receives the ball. If he explodes through the hole he has a chance to break a long one here. Instead he pitty pats in the backfield and the blocks collapse around him. This was something that he consistently did all day.

Input: [Date] 2 years 45 weeks ago [Title] That makes sense [Body]

Output: But it leads to the question: Why is Kovacs setting the edge??!? I wanted to scream at the TV. It felt like I was watching the Indiana game with GERG all over again. Brian writes it up as if Kovacs was supposed to be setting the edge. That can't possibly be true...can it??


Input: [Date] 2 years 45 weeks ago [Title] Setting the edge [Body]

Output: If I remember correctly, the sideline reporter spoke with Mattison at half time and he said that the CB weren't coming up fast enough to stop the run. When you look at the CB alignment, the CBs were playing around 10 yards off the ball as if they were afraid to get beat deep. That seems crazy to me against a triple option team. I'm not sure why the corner's weren't playing more press coverage, reading through to the backfield and setting the edge with S giving over the top help. That seems a more preferable than having the CBs catching blocks 10 yards down field with the S being forced to set the edge coming from the middle of the field. On a number of plays there was backside pursuit if only the edge had been set. Frank Clark consistently was chasing on the backside when the ball went away from him.


Input: [Date] 2 years 46 weeks ago [Title] Yeldon Play [Body]

Output: I've watched the Yeldon run where Brian conclude who was actually at fault, over and over. I've concluded that it has to be Demens. Either the TE or the tackle releases on Demens but basically is stumbling and makes no real contact. Gordon comes up and forces the run back inside. Demens has to get through the 'very' weak block and stuff the whole right there. Instead, he trips over the offensive player's fingernail and leaves a gaping hole.


Input: [Date] 3 years 28 weeks ago [Title] Slight Guy [Body]

Output: Roy is not very physical and gets pushed around around by physical DBs. He struggled to get off the line and to get seperation. On slants, DBs routinely beat him to the ball (see Iowa, etc). When Dbs would get physical with Roy, often he would break off his routes and look for a pass interference call. Roy needs to be in the slot to be effective. Michigan desperately needs another outside guy, someone with speed preferably.


Input: [Date] 3 years 28 weeks ago [Title] Roundtree [Body]

Output: I don't know how anyone can have confidence in Roundtree. The kid is too small to play wideout. He consistently gets thrown off of his routes when he is jammed at the line. If Roundtree is to be successful at all, it will have to be in the slot where he can get a free release. The reason why he didn't have more catches this year is because he couldn't get open.

Input: [Date] 3 years 42 weeks ago [Title] Reverse Bias [Body]

Output: Looks like Michigan is getting dinged because their game film is actually broken down frame by frame and we see the weaknesses of the team. However, it is extremely hard for me to believe that a person can look at Illiniois game film and come away thinking that they are a better team than Michigan.


Input: [Date] 3 years 45 weeks ago [Title] 'Jump Balls' [Body]

Output: I wouldn't necessarily call them 'jump balls'. Notre Dame was playing man to man almost the entire night. The defenders had their back to the ball and couldn't see when the ball was in the air. All the receivers had to do was locate the ball.


Input: [Date] 3 years 48 weeks ago [Title] In the Big House [Body]

Output: Sport is a contrived event. It sits atop Maslow's pyramid. To the individual, sport is relevant as long as a person relates and cares about it. People care more when the team they follow does well, is admired, or hated. Losing, especially prolonged losing, doesn't cause anger, it causes apathy. Apathy is death of any sport (see NHL). Is Rich Rod a good man? Was Bo a good man? Jim Tressel? For us, those questions are meaningless. What we care about is whether those individuals won games. Did Rich Rod cause people to care more about Michigan or did he inspire apathy? Is Michigan more or less relevant after RR. I hate Jim Tressel. Not as a person, but as a winner/cheater/Suckeye. John Cooper? I could care less. I don't know if Rich Rod is a loving father, a caring husband, a thoughtful son. What I do know is that there was a fuzzy stuffed animal on the sideline during the year Michigan had it's historically worse defense ever. Once overheard at a gentleman's club: Her 'I'm just doing this to pay rent', Him 'I don't care'. Win Baby, Win.

Output: I've been a guest on this board for a long time. I've enjoyed reading the Blog post as well as the responses from the faithful commentators. This is the only sight that I've been on, for any sport, where the content is driven by complex analysis and detailed review rather than selling access to players/coaches. But I was compelled to create an account today after reading the Michigan Preview. I do a lot of writing and legal analysis for a living. I know what good writing and analysis looks like. I know when a person has put in time, effort, and energy into a work. I know these things and I can say confidently that hands down, the Michigan Preview this week is one of the Best Previews I've ever read. Insightful, funny, detailed... We are what we do. You, my friend, do Michigan, therefore you must be a Michigan Man. Thanks. I appreciate what you do and I know others do as well.

[Title]

Output: Bill Belichick was also a bit of a coaching prodigy


Input: [Date] 1 day 3 hours ago [Body] Just one of my absolute favorite RBs to watch, I love the way he runs. The thing that stands out the most are his feet; it's as if they never leave the ground. He's so quick in and out of cuts, and while his top end speed was only "good", it's as if he gets to that speed as soon as he wants to. And the patience and the vision and how he sets up blocks then jump cut or a little shimmy of the shoulder and he's leaving guys in the dirt. And when finally someone catches up to him, he squares the lowered shoulders and keeps the feet moving, churning, on and on. Man, Ioved watching that guy run. [Title]

Output: A-Train was my guy


Input: [Date] 4 days 7 hours ago [Body] The guy has a strong enough arm to make all the throws (not Henne strong, but a average NFL arm). He has great touch over the top of the defense. He's a good enough athlete to relieve pressure. He makes many good throws on the move. He still makes some really bad decisions (mostly, he struggles when teams are heavily multiple in coverage), that and throwing to RBs are his major weakness (his footwork gets sloppy when he gets lazy which hurts his accuracy, when he sets his feet he has really good accuracy). I've watched him progress from a guy that they didn't trust throwing more than double slants and mesh concepts to a guy throwing triangle concepts whenever they ask him to. If you said this after 2013 I'd have no issue believing you, but they guy got significantly better and played really, really well in 2014. He isn't without flaws, neither was Henne. But Cook is good enough now and has potential in his game to improve in the areas where he's weakest. Winston and Mariota were the top 2 picks, I said Cook will be selected in the first 3 rounds. He would have gone ahead of Grayson and Mannion last year, two guys selected in the third round that Cook was better than. I don't know what hype I'm supposed to be believing here, I'm not calling him the second coming or Tom Brady, but he's a really good college QB. [Title]

Output: I've watched all their games


Input: [Date] 4 days 8 hours ago [Body] But in 2014 MSU had the 6th best passing offense (opponent adjusted) and Iowa had the 58th best. Stats lie (Rudock had the 54th best passer rating last year, Cook was 19th; Rudock's non-con wasn't murderer's row compared to MSU's). This shows that Rudock isn't some scrub of a QB and can play good games, but (and this will come across as know-it-all), the eye test is easily in Cook's favor. People calling him a game manager are wrong, at least for 2014 (he was in 2013 until the BTT). He hits some impressive throws, makes a lot of really good throws, and makes some bad ones too. I don't think he's quite as good as Henne was, but I view him as a pick up in the first 3 rounds at least, most likely in the first two (depending on the talent around him, Henne would have gone earlier if it not been a relatively deep draft in 2008). He's in that same category, especially now that "pro-style" offenses are becoming fewer and fewer. And remember, Cook doesn't have the advantage of throwing a ton of screens. Iowa throws more screens than MSU actually. Cook's numbers aren't propped up by a lot of bubble screens and such. Cook hasn't played very well against Michigan, and I get the feeling that most Michigan fans are basing their opinion of Cook based on that, watching him briefly in the background of other games, and bias. Cook is a good player, I think it's time for Michigan fans to stop living in denial about that and searching for excuses to why most others view him as a good QB prospect; admitting he's a good QB doesn't make you less of a fan. [Title]

Output: This is nice and all


Input: [Date] 4 days 9 hours ago [Body] The problem is, by "poor man's Chris Wormley" (which I agree with), you are pointing out the major problem, that he's Chris Wormley minus the athleticism to shift outside. Maybe he can play 5-tech against power teams that consistently line up in-line TEs on standard downs, but I just find it hard to believe he'll consistently playing on the edge. So I agree with what you're saying, and I think you're agreeing that most likely he'll end up inside except maybe situationally. [Title]

Output: Not completely disagreeing


Input: [Date] 4 days 10 hours ago [Body] Bama is still a legit option. So is Auburn and Georgia (I think). 49% is probably optimistic for Gary at this point, quite honestly. So I think it's fine to say it without qualifying it. [Title]

Output: The thing is that


Input: [Date] 4 days 10 hours ago [Body] I have a hard time believing he sticks at DE. Then you have guys like Onwenu or Hamilton or Davis that could end up at NT as well. That would be two incoming players to replace two scholarship guys (Glasgow was a walk-on), even without Gary. Then you take 2 or 3 next year and you're in fine shape with essentially 4-5 DTs over two years and it starts to work itself out. Also, as far as we know they are still looking at lower ranked DTs, they just aren't pulling the trigger yet. If those guys aren't highly sought after, they don't need to be contacting them all the time. They can probably contact Jovan Swann (IN), Amir Watts (IL), Jake Saunders (OH), Rashad Wheeler (PA), Ulises De Los Santos (NJ), and Tyler Oliver (PA) and at least get serious interest out of a few of them. And those are all still top 100 DTs from the midwest. [Title]

Output: Weaver will almost certainly be a DT


Input: [Date] 4 days 10 hours ago [Body] And he isn't what he was at Florida, but he still may be the most successful South Carolina coach of all time. Better than Holtz, better than Joe Morrison. South Carolina has won 2 conference titles in their entire history, one in the "Southern Conference" in 1933, the other in the ACC in 1969. South Carolina losing Spurrier would be a huge loss for them. [Title]

Output: Spurrier is old


Input: [Date] 4 days 13 hours ago [Body] First, People don't remember just how bad Texas was when Mack took over. The storied program wen 4-7 the year prior to him being there (1997), and the five years prior to him arriving saw them average 5 losses a year. They weren't awful, but for that program, they might as well have been. Brown took over and immediately went 9-3. But the Big 12 had a couple other power houses too in Nebraska (early) and Oklahoma (throughout). Brown won the South his 2nd year, and would go on to win his division 6 times in his 16 seasons, and at one point won 6 or 12 seasons. Of course he had a conference title game that he only won twice, but still. He won at least 9 games his first 12 seasons at Texas, after winning 10 games in back-to-back years at UNC. He won at least 10 games in 9 straight seasons, that's almost a full decade with 10+ wins every year. He only lost more than 2 conference games once in his first 12 seasons. He won a national title and was a Colt McCoy injury away from probably winning a second against Alabama. Brown was a good recruiter (he was at Texas, that part isn't the difficult part), but he was also a good game day coach. He switched offenses drastically from early in his career with Ricky Williams, to the one that Vince Young ran, to the one that Colt McCoy ran. Brown's issues were probably somewhat similar to Hoke's, in that the atmosphere around the program started to degrade. But then Brown had the opposite problem as Hoke, he basically had a whirlwind of coaches coming and going, absolutely no consistency, the schemes constantly changing. This lead to (similar to Hoke) a lack of player development, and the downfall of his program. [Title]

Output: I don't think that's really fair


Input: [Date] 4 days 14 hours ago [Body] If these guys stepped down every time the goings got tough, they wouldn't be where they are today. All of these coaches are extremely confident. They think they can turn it around. Hell, if you won a National Title and went to another one and had one of the most successful runs in college football within the last decade, why wouldn't you think you could turn it around again? I don't blame Mack for hanging around. It was the wrong decision, because things got bad at Texas, particularly for the talent they had; but I personally don't think you can expect someone that still wants to coach and has been extremely successful coaching fairly recently to just hang it up because he was trending downwards.

Input: [Date] 5 days 1 hour ago [Body] AKA the Percy Harvin Role. That's H in Urban's offense [Title]

Output: H-back is their slot position


Input: [Date] 5 days 15 hours ago [Body] His film did anyway, supposedly he's really worked hard over the summer and improved his speed and footwork, but that's always easier said and done in camps than it is on gameday. Either way, I think he's a solid piece of the class. I like him more as a FB, but as an in-state kid that has potential to turn into a good LB on top of that, I think he's a good take and am glad he looks like he'll be headed to Michigan. [Title]

Output: He looked more like a 2-down MIKE to me


Input: [Date] 6 days 11 hours ago [Body] I think the offense as a whole was struggling, and in turn, that forced Caris to think he had to do even more and put the offense more on his shoulders, and that lead to the offense struggling even more and Caris trying to do more than he's actually comfortable doing. I'm hoping with all the new guys now more comfortable with the offense, and Irvin understanding his role and being a little more dynamic, that Caris doesn't feel the need to carry the load quite as much. The offense works best when it's constantly moving and everyone is doing their job, when guys have to or feel they have to do more, it tends to stagnate and break down, which is what it felt like last year even before a lot of the injuries. [Title]

Output: Agree with what you said


Input: [Date] 6 days 12 hours ago [Body] I feel like in the top 10 you're looking for a guy that has the potential to be a team's #1 scorer (emphasis on potential) or has a really elite skill (like shooting). I don't really see that in Caris at the NBA level. To me, he seems like he has the potential to be an all around player, a guy that has a lot of skills but no elite one, and a guy that you want being maybe the #2 scorer, maybe the #3 scorer, but not consistently running the offense. I think he's probably end of lottery or a little later if he comes back strong this year. [Title]

Output: Agree


Input: [Date] 6 days 12 hours ago [Body] I know he hasn't exactly been lights out. But a legit 7'0", long arms, and weights in the 260s has averaged over 10 ppg every year at Purdue. On defense he's had over 6 RPG every year (maxing out at 7.4) and has averaged over 2 BPG every year (maxing out at 3.1). Hammons issues have always seemed to be foul trouble and conditioning more than anything. But he has some talent that isn't necessarily common, even among the NBA ranks. I just don't see someone with the numbers he's put up and his size going that late. Maybe though, I guess I don't really follow NBA too much. [Title]

Output: A little surprised Hammons is so low


Input: [Date] 6 days 12 hours ago [Body] 5th year SRs aren't promised. But you lost almos the entire coaching staff, how is the new coaching staff going to pick which 5th year gets renewed and which doesn't? Well, they are going to see them play and then make a decision. I've got nothing against Heitzman, but this is par for the course. They were looking at the 5th year guys and deciding who they wanted to ask back and who they didn't. It's phrased in a way to make it sound worse than it is; he wasn't cutting players left and right, just determining who to ask back for a 5th year. I felt uncomfortable (and still do) about the Pipkins thing. But this thing here is a non-issue. [Title]

Output: Here's what happened


Input: [Date] 1 week 11 hours ago [Body] Collins was one of, if not the, favorite defensive player to watch last year in the B1G. Here's where I first noticed him, against Miami in the non-conf: Maliek Collins I want to start with Ameer Abdullah, because I should start with Ameer Abdullah, but damn, this guy has me excited right now. Here's the essence of my notes with regards to Collins: #7 DT did a good job on zone stretch of keeping his helmet in front of the guard and pressing into OT to not allow OT to come off block. Maintained the double team, kept LBs clean, then anchored and didn't let play get to sideline. Nice play. Another nice job by #7 holding up to a double. [Makes another play, forcing me to look him up] Ok, Maliek Collins is turning in a good game. He's essentially being doubled every play and isn't giving ground and is keeping LBs clean. OH MY GOD. THEY JUST TRIED TO SINGLE TEAM COLLINS! THEY REALLY JUST TRIED THAT. COLLINS DESTROYED THE ENTIRE BACKFIELD. Basically, Collins went from a guy off my radar, to being a guy that is firmly on my radar every time I watch Nebraska going forward. He has a great understanding of leverage. He fights with his hands and occupies blockers extremely well. When he gets a one-on-one block, he disposes of blockers with great hand violence. Collins is one of the players I will be watching out for going forward. Ex-state champ wrestler and is only a Soph. Collins is legit. I'd take him over any DT not named Zettel (who I'd take over Washington, who I think needs to be more consistent). Collins is a great joy to watch. The reference to Mike Martin is legit. Guy just plays and destroys, and it's football at its finest. Also, Elliott is really good, Clement may be better. That's how good he is. Explosive, great balance, can catch out of the backfield, can break tackles. While the passing game won't clear the box as much as OSU, he's bound to get more carries because for once there isn't a great backup. Gordon was as explosive as any RB in college football last year... and Clement may be as good as any RB Wisconsin has had, which is insanely not even hyperbole. [Title]

Output: Collins


Input: [Date] 1 week 13 hours ago [Body] Every year, they will pick a position to enter the recruiting cycle, and recruit exactly 82 players at that position in hopes of getting about a dozen or so commits. With this strategy, the schemes will change drastically year-to-year, and constantly be completely innovative and surprising. Personnel numbering will no longer apply. 50 personnel? Nope, not 5 OL, 5 RBs, and a QB, because it could also be with 5 RBs, 4 QBs, and 2 OL. How will defenses adjust when a pulling RB takes the jet sweep only to toss it back to the left QB who throws the wheel route to the right wing back as he rolls back the other direction? You can't even conceptualize what I just said, that's how difficult it'll be to stop. [Title]

Output: The coaching staff has made a clear choice


Input: [Date] 1 week 1 day ago [Body] I like him as a prospect more than Moorman, who I was never very high on. I think Ulizio has a lower floor but a higher ceiling than Madden as well, who is a classic Wisconsin RT that has a lot of work left on how well he moves, technique, getting his weight low enough, etc. I'm in general agreement with Brian, I'm a bit higher on Ulizio than the scouting services, but he's probably not going to be a star either. I jus think he can be a really solid interior player for Michigan though if he can work out some of the technical issues. [Title]

Output: FWIW


Input: [Date] 1 week 6 days ago [Body] It certainly has some physical elements, they run some inside zone and such, but the whole philosophy is not physical, it just isn't. The base run concept is outside zone, and more than pro-style teams, the goal is actually to bounce the run; from an OL perspective that means reaching the block and cutting off the defense - horizontal spacing - not driving people off the ball and getting vertical displacement. WRs block well (so did Carr's for the most part) to help spring runs, but that's more about effort than being physical; bubble screens and options are about playing in space and using athleticism and playing away from the defense, rather than moving the defense and dictating what the defense does. The offense adjusts to what the defense does, attacks where it isn't, runs away from it with options and reads. Those aren't bad things, but they aren't physical. I don't believe there should be a negative connotation to the base offense not being physical, as long as you can be physical when it demands it. But Rich Rod's offense was not physical in the same way other Michigan offenses were designed to be. It was the scheme and the philosophy of him as a coach, and that's fine. And yes, the offense has evolved, but it's still the same at heart. Rich Rod's offensive scheme is very little like Meyer's, despite both being "spread". That's just the reality of it. Different philosophies. [Title]

Output: I disagree with how physical it is


Input: [Date] 1 week 6 days ago [Body] I don't think Carr did everything perfectly, but people rarely do. Carr was doing what he thought was right, IMO. [Title]

Output: Absolutely agree
