Input: [Date] 5 weeks 5 days ago [Title] Now this is something that [Body]

Output: Now this is something that can be evaluated. I wouldn't be very happy being a Bo Pelini Nebraska team. I wouldn't accept oversigning. What happened in the post Ace talked about? Eh, I thought it was bad. I'd definitely prefer that it doesn't happen and I'd hope Harbaugh would be put under some pressure. I would definitely accept a few recruits who the staff thought they don't need anymore because of higher-ranked guys knocking on the door if they had already committed. Would rather the staff waited until the next cycle to start picking higher-hanging fruit even if signing up a couple mediocre players cost us a win (don't see how it'd cost more than that for a couple guys who are just so-so). EDIT: Reading who Gameboy was originally replying to and what he said, I'm not sure we really disagree at all actually. I don't think Harbaugh should be fired if he does like he did in Stanford in 2010, but I would like to hear some pointed questions from the media that would cause him to back off of doing that in the future and hopefully a conversation with Hackett behind closed doors (that we would probably never catch wind of).


Input: [Date] 5 weeks 5 days ago [Title] Win what exactly? The Hoke [Body]

Output: Win what exactly? The Hoke question was a serious one. What win percentage or number of B1G titles over X number of years would you be happy with? Can you name a coach who is winning conference titles regularly that treats kids well according to your criteria? Again, it's great that you have standards, but it's easy to have standards on overcommitting without having standards on winning. Clearly teams who do shady shit are at an advantage.

Output: I hope you're wrong. I would be extremely disappointed. Even yanking an offer just before Signing Day would be less egregious but still really shitty. At least that recruit wasn't a part of team yet and has other options.

Output: The Smoky Mountains area (beautiful by the way, Cherohola Skyway!) was definitely the most redneck area I've been to. I remember we walked into some restaurant or fast food place and got a bunch of looks when people heard us talking and knew we weren't from around there. It was weird. It's the same looks I've gotten traveling in Asia, except, ya know, I was in America still. EDIT: Not that anyone cares but this must be some kind of record for me. This is like the 20th post I've made today. Guess that's what happens when you're on vacation but have no responsibilities, like raising a family.

It's just that it's been going on for a long time and it's stupid to blame it all on rap. If you wanted to point to one specific thing, I'd pick cameras that allow us to take photos of ourselves and what we're doing at every moment over rap music.

And to be fair, that's kind of how that recruit looks. I'd like to think I wouldn't be so wowed and would think it's absurd. Except for the women. I would definitely enjoy that part.

Input: [Date] 1 year 36 weeks ago [Body] I'd like to thank Al Borges for his first year, when he took control of a team whose offensive scheme was radically different than anything he'd ever run before and yet the offense ended the year with higher red zone efficiency and other metrics than RR ever managed. I'd like to thank Al Borges for his second year, when despite all those designed QB runs finally catching up with Denard, defenses finally figuring out his arm was nothing to fear, and who knows what in terms of injuries (the pinched nerve, possible knee issue, etc) all leading to the sudden transition of Devin from WR to QB, we came close to beating a 10 win SEC outfit in a bowl game. I'd like to thank Al Borges for the fact that we're going to a bowl these year and as bad as the offense is, I've seen worse from other offensive transitions in recent memory. As bad as the line situation is this year, I've seen offensive geniuses shit the bed to much worse degrees than this year. No one we've lost to has more than two loses and they have 5 loses total. The moments of futility suck, but so did offensive line recruiting for awhile and one of our higher ranked gets is currently a nose tackle because defensive line recruiting also sucked. [Title]

Output: I'd like to thank Al Borges


Input: [Date] 1 year 43 weeks ago [Body] One of the things seems to be he doesn't keep any kind of momentum after he beats that first block. He crushes right through the line and then he's just kind of standing there, trying to find the ball, and once he figures out that the ball carrier is headed for the edge he has to get his body back up to speed. Better vision will let him come crashing through at full speed instead of needing to pause and figure out what is going on. Lots of wasted steps there, which in some instances comes close to letting the offensive linemen pick him back up. [Title]

Input: [Date] 1 year 43 weeks ago [Body] The offending thing is actually something I've been pondering for awhil and it does present a problem. Least we forget, Tuley-Tillman has very displeased when a blog called him raw and basically failed to declare him the next coming of Long and Lewan. This blog has always excelled because when recruits are covered, attempts are made to break down their game film and critique their play. Things are said like "Likely won't start until their junior at the earliest, very raw.", "Likely to be passed from behind unless he works his ass off", and other such things. If the content is going to target kids who are 15 and not used to hitting the camps and being critiqued in a such manner, we're going to tie our hands in the future in terms of analysis. Last year it was unhappiness over being called raw, this year it was being young looking, and perhaps next year someone will mad when Ace says he doesn't have the world's greatest hands and is prone to dropping balls. You're always going to have to recruits who don't like the grading they get, but at least the older ones should in theory have gotten used to it after hitting those camps and talking to coaches on their officials. We have an admittedly small sample size here, but so far the trend line has started out in an extremely poor direction to say the least. We're not the kind of blog prone to mindlessly hailing fluff pieces, because if we were we'd all be watching Sports Center rather than hanging out here. [Title]

Input: [Date] 1 year 43 weeks ago [Body] I went through Michigan with a full ride for academics and also worked 10 to 20 hours a week for General Motors. A fair number of folks in college get some or all of their college paid for with scholarships and cash a paycheck beyond that. A fair number of engineering grad students are in the same boat, tuition waiver and some kind of grant or hook up with a company that results in a stipend. I see no reason that a football player shouldn't be able to do the same. Just because a small percentage of them will go on to become wealthly in the pros is no reason to deny them money. By that logic we should go stick it harder to the Business School types since they might end up with Stephen J Ross kinds of money. In terms of wealth on hand, I had a significantly better deal in that I went to class and cashed a check for my work. A football player goes to class, has 20 hours of official practice with the coaching staff, more voluntary practice or film study with their teammates, which is supposed to average out to around 44.8 hours per week, and they don't even get a stipend for walking around money. Heck if they chose to stay in school rather than go pro early, their wallets take a hit because they have to buy injury insurance with their own money like Lewan did. There are a lot of services FBS programs could offer their students beside just handing them the cash (and half a million per head doesn't seem defensible) such as a living stipdent, program provided insurance for career ending injuries, a free grad degree as well as 4 years of undergrad, a trust fund of some sort, etc. Right now though players do get screwed considering the revenue stream they bring in.

Input: [Date] 1 year 43 weeks ago [Body] As I said, ask the kid to pass a request along to the parents in your first contact package. Alternatively if directly contacting the kids is seen as unacceptable, every school in America has a public phone number and someone who answers the phone during the school day. Leave the coach a voicemail and ask him to pass it on to the parents. In a lot of cases you don't even need to go that far, as a fair amount of the higher star ranked prospects have a Twitter or Youtube account dedicated to recruiting, which one assumes an adult is at least aware of, if not checking. Hit up that account, speak briefly with a parent, and move forward. Again the issue comes down to the fact that Brown's standard workflow does not included "Speak with a parent or gaurdian" as a step before interviewing a 16 year old. Which forms of social media are used and how you use them is something that is still up in the air, as some new social network comes out every six months it seems, but changes in the mechanics of contact doesn't at all influence the issue that sooner or later a parent is not going to be happy and the fact Brown doesn't attempt to speak to them as a matter of course only increases the odds of it happening sooner and more frequently.

Input: [Date] 1 year 44 weeks ago [Body] It's all right here. He clearly states he has not talked with a parent or coach for every interview, which in turn means that speaking with the parents is not part of the standard contact package. As for his contact method, @BBrown has a clear history of sending out Tweets in the form of "Hey X, follow back", which in turn is designed to allow for private direct messaging. No additional context is provided by Brown in the initial contact. [Title]

Output: I do actually.


Input: [Date] 1 year 44 weeks ago [Body] One area that the board is clearly going to be divided on are the ethics of not talking to the parents in all this. I've made my view clear upthread, so clearly have a bias in favor of contacting the parents. That said, from a pragmatic viewpoint: Let's say I'm a high schooler and I'm interview. Now I live with my mother in Michigan and my father lives in Hawaii since they divorced. I do an interview, my mother doesn't really mind, but my dad finds out and absolutely flips his lid. Maybe he does it purely out of a cynical ploy for usage in a custody battle or some other reason, at the end of the day it will still be MGoBlog didn't ask and at least one parent is pissed off and no parent approved since no one was asked. Ethics of interviewing minors aside, there is a certain cover your ass aspect of at least attempting to get approval from one parent. Better to beg forgiveness than ask permission is not always true. [Title]

Output: One area that the board is


Input: [Date] 1 year 44 weeks ago [Body] This is really what it boils down to. Print journalism ethics first begins with question why you must interview minors. Clearly in this case, because they are potential Michigan recruits. Secondly you determine if parental (or gaurdian) consent is needed. If you determine it is not, you should leave contact information with the minor so his parents can contact you if they later object to the interview being used. I'd say that is pretty standard. So in this day and age, personally I strongly disagree with Brown's method of going from contact to publication. There is no reason why the initial contact could not also include "Also, I want to clear it with your parents, my email is xxxxxx@mgoblog.com." Clearly of course the kid could set up a fake email and impersonate his parents, but at least there is more of an effort to be upfront and reach out to the parents there. Here of course we enter into a slippery slope in that how much due diligence Brown has to do. The core issue though is right now he is doing nothing. At the end of the day, tweeting kids "Hello X, follow me back" seemingly out of the blue* and dropping interviews on 16 year olds strikes me as extremely low professional standards and I'll post negative comments about it. One of the first things you normally learn in the professional world is just because you are on social media, doesn't meant professional standards are thrown out. Ultimately that is going to happen is Brown is going to run an article and some parent is going to be pissed the fuck off by it and when that happens, if Brian thought the AD was on his ass before, he's going to wake up and find the Athletic Department so far up his ass, Dominos is opening a branch in his colon. *There also does seem to be an element of hypocrisy here, what did Kyle Kalis and Tuley-Tillman teach us? Don't tweet recruits. Yet now a business function of the blog is doing it via a personal twitter account and lacking any sort of formal letterhead...no thank you. [Title]

Input: [Date] 1 year 44 weeks ago [Body] The industry is undoubtably grimey, but just because MGoBlog does partake in elements of the industry doesn't mean people can't express concerns about the level at which the blog partakes in this industry. Scout, Rivals, etc do a lot of things that MGoBlog choses not to do and I don't see the issue with people on the blog expressing concern about how deep into that industry the blog staff dives. After all, it was called the MGoCreeper Van because when TomVH started out, lots of people jokingly expressed concern about a dude driving around to various high school games for the express purpose of posting footage on the internet. Moving forward with hudl pages and all that the game has changed. That being said, it is still an ongoing discussion. Both posters and staff comment negatively on some of the offers made to 8 year olds by coaches, so it stands to reason different people would have different thresholds for where that age cut off is.

Input: [Date] 1 year 44 weeks ago [Body] I can confirm this is correct, a large portion of the wing on the Dental School was marked as no access when I did my orientation for Marine ROTC. However the Marines showed that area and the massive cracks because "Marines aren't pussies like those squids." Also the University never really repaired it beyond taking it to a point it wasn't condemned. Circa 2007 or so the patchwork as still visible in a number of classrooms and a couple of new cracks were coming along quite nicely.

Input: [Date] 1 year 44 weeks ago [Body] Ultimately at the start of the season, most of the 'experts' were calling us an 8 or 9 win team this year due to our youth and right now the fanbase is being reminded of that. The play where Chesson failed to dominate the tiny little sub 6' corner covering him his a prime example of that youth. Senior Chesson will likely just reach over the guy, grab the ball and proceed to burn down the field for another 10 yards. Freshman Chesson doesn't jump properly and it results in an Int. That said that throw made my happy, Chesson mistake aside, because it was one of many times that Gardner did throw to someone not named Gallon. Gardner was out of sync with a lot of those people but that can be fixed. The second half went well and in the 4th we really did start to establish something. Fitz was running hard and the defense finally got pumped up thanks to the Morgan pick. Hopefully that will carry into the bye week and give the coaches a little something positive to work with before showing the 6 hour long clip of things that need to be corrected. I'm really hoping with 2 weeks off we can get the offensive line settled into at least mediocrity and Devin calmed down and out of the "I need to win it all by myself mode." [Title]

Input: [Date] 1 year 44 weeks ago [Body] This issue the higher ups who looked the other way on this did so in part to protect their cash cow of a football program from any taint of a scandal. PSU struggling to make ends meet is just in that is serves as a fair warning to every other administrator in the country (and the PSU community) that the coverup only makes it worse. The message needs to be sent that a better economic result will come from coming clean and taking the initial hit. True PSU never had some kind of secret meeting where the entire Board of Trustees said 'cover this shit up', but the culture was such that a group of school leaders thought they could do just that. Ultimately that is why they pay. Also you can't just blame sanctions. Donations to the athletic program are also down, likely because alumni are disgusted by the actions of the department, not just in the coverup but all its continued denial. Beside, they can always melt that statue down and sell the metal. [Title]

Disclosure of grades of course falls under FERPA. Lewis as Dean of Rackham was actually the ultimate say in punishing this grad student, but kept ducking meetings with me, I had four rescheduled and denying responsibility until a letter from an actual lawyer rolled in, coupled with an official compliant to the Department of Education. Suddenly Lewis had all the time in the world to meet with me after that and I no longer kept getting routed to other departments.

State's front 4 are not as disruptive as they were in past seasons. [Title]

Input: [Date] 1 year 46 weeks ago [Body] That stopping Denard defense comment is the key I think. Notre Dame early in the game was playing they thought Denard was still there and no one on our team could pass to save his life. They reopened with a rehash of their 2012 formations and were promptly murdered via a passing attack. As the season goes on we'll see if coordinators we face make different choices, like not stacking 7 or 8 in the box and having the LBs play to stop the run on almost every down, and what kind of running game improvement we see at that point. So far Devin has not been a free turnover machine when pressured, so we'll see what happens next. If we seems playing to stop the pass more and we still struggle to run, my worries will increase at that point. Funchess blocking mistakes that definitely hurt the run game. That's worrisome, but it is only his second year in the program and blocking takes time to learn (think back to Seth's work on how long it takes to prep offensive linemen to learn the blocking schemes, Funchess faces the same task to a degree). [Title]

Output: That stopping Denard defense


Input: [Date] 1 year 46 weeks ago [Body] Well this should hopefully end the Sailboat Bill jokes (I have to admit, I've made a few myself). The oddly unified story I've heard is that Miles was exiled from AA by Bo for various sins beyond the whole screwing Mrs. Moeller thing, which might just be campfire gossip anyway. Which was why when coming into the 2006 season, when Carr wanted to retire and Bo was alive, no move was made to hire Miles. As the story goes, MSC felt that Bo was over reacting to some minor issues involving Miles, whereas Bo had full on excommunicated the guy. So long as Carr stayed on, MSC figured there was nothing to be gained by challenging Bo over this and let it ride coming into 2006 when Carr was making noises about retirement but people talked him into staying. What happened in 2008 supposedly was Carr and Martin were against Miles, but MSC ordered contact to be made and since she is the ultimate boss she had to be obeyed. Martin, a multimillionaire who has conducted many business deals on tight timetables, became suddenly incompentent (strategically so one might say) with his cellphone and Carr laid the groundwork for RR (since RR had the Nehlen link and Bo liked RR's read-option, although I assume Bo must have flipped channels during defensive series). Martin 'made a mistake' and 'lost the deal', then Carr presented RR as a viable Plan B. However Carr actually had buyer's remorse due to further interactions with RR and things went to hell as we all saw. [Title]

Output: It's actually 3 NFC Championship games. Those 18 year olds are gonna be in awe of Jim and his resume. You think NFL players are gonna care about what he did at UM, Chicago, Indianpolis, San Diego, Palo Alto or Santa Clara? NFL players care about their playing time, their contracts and their endorsement deals in that order. College kids are gonna run through walls for Jim. UM's admin is gonna give Jim the keys to the AD. In the NFL no matter what team he goes to he's gonna have FO issues and political issues. There's a reason Jim lost a locker room after 3 NFCCG's and a SB appearance. His message and style doesn't lend itself as well to the pro game as it does to the college game.

Input: [Date] 32 weeks 2 days ago [Title] I disagree, the NFL is very [Body]

Output: I disagree, the NFL is very volatile. Every year there's a coaching carousel. I'd say the NFL is more volatile than the NCAA. Sometimes coaches don't even get 2 years before they get canned. College coaches ususually get 3-4 years minimum before being shown the door. Now there are more college football programs than NFL teams but if you're talking Power 5 schools then there's not a huge disparity. I believe Schlissel and Hackett are going about this search the right way this time which makes me think that whoever they select is going to be in the position for many years. Jim may not get this shot again for a long time. In the NFL every year there is an opportunity, Greg Schiano got a job for crying out loud. It's churn and burn. Jim's already shown he can coach in the NFL. Even if things go badly for him in Ann Arbor some NFL team would give him a shot. He has an NFC Championship ring. He'll get another shot guaranteed.


Input: [Date] 32 weeks 3 days ago [Title] I doubt they make a big [Body]

Output: I doubt they make a big cheese offer like this without some indication from the Harbaugh camp that there is interest. Now that the offer has been made there has been no official rejection of the offer and any implication that Jim is using the offer as leverage is ridiculous. There's no way Jim strings his Alma Mater along causing potential damage in the interest of his own selfish career pursuits. I think there is a strong possibility based on the facts that he does accept the offer.


Input: [Date] 32 weeks 5 days ago [Title] Sorry but I would beg to [Body]

Output: Sorry but I would beg to differ. Any coach who takes his team to 3 NFCCG's and a SB and then loses the lockeroom in his first 4 years in the league still has some polishing to do.


Input: [Date] 32 weeks 6 days ago [Title] If that logic were true then [Body]

Output: If that logic were true then why not suspend all discussion until you've fulfilled your contract term?


Input: [Date] 33 weeks 2 hours ago [Title] Another thing to keep in mind [Body]

Output: Another thing to keep in mind for all those who don't think he'd leave the NFL. Jim is a smart guy. He's gonna look at what happened, or what didn't happen, in Santa Clara and see that the same thing could easily happen in Oakland or anywhere the Niners send him. He lost the locker room. NFL players don't respond to the ass chewing style of coaching a la Bo. I don't see the Niners FO releasing him since he has trade value. They could send him across the country to a team he may want no part of. Even if the Raiders are an option there are rumors they may relocate once again to LA. That would blow any notion of him taking the Raiders job so he could keep his family where they are for daily involvement. LA is almost 400 miles away from the Bay with flight time, gate time and driving time that's a 2 hour commute at minimum. With bad CA traffic that could be more like a 3 hour propostion. Not exactly something you'd want to do daily after late nights at the office. UM may be the most attractive choice if he can't be near his family, in terms of how he wants to coach and the control he wants to have. I don't see Jim staying in the NFL and transforming himself into Pete Carroll.

Output: The Niners have to face my Seahawks next week and there is no way they win that game at Clink Stadium. It's a rivalry game, the fans are going to be rabid and the Hawks are rollin.

Output: So I think we may be getting a little ahead of ourselves with the Mel coming back train for several reasons He's making more than Red at Michigan Tech and just signed an extension going through 2020-2021 season His original contract had a 275,000 buyout going down 25,000 each year while I'm not certain I'd figure on something similar in the new contract Tech is his alma mater who he played for under another legendary coach John Macinnes Tech alums are crazy excited for him to be back, my dad who was in school during the same time as Mel can't stop talking about how good Tech is going to be now and about how exciting their return to glory is Hockey at Tech is football at Michigan, no sport is bigger or more important to the university or even remotely close to it's level of importance College hockey is different in terms of recruiting and dominance the teams currently ranked 1 and 2 North Dakota and Minnesota State are located in Grand Forks and Mankato not really emminently more desirable locations than Houghton Do I hope Mel comes back to Michigan and we win everything for all the years he's here? Yes, yes I do but I'm just not sure that if Red retires Mel comes back.

Because the people at wnem I know confirming the verbal commit have real knowledge on the situation. I know this sounds like more hearsay but based on the journalistic integrity of the people I'm hearing this from I believe that the verbal commit of Harbaugh is real

Input: [Date] 3 years 14 weeks ago [Title] Depends [Body]

Output: As a member of the UofM paintball team I feel pretty well qualified to answer this question. My personal opinion is as follows: It depends on which kind of paintball you enjoy playing, considering you said you're ordering an etek 3 I'm guessing you are thinking about playing some speedball, airball or whatever you want to call it but not playing in the woods. This means that Hell Survivors is essentially out, they have great big games and the open play can be fun but its essentially dead for speedball unless your bringing everybody. Cru in Flint can be hit or miss, nobody ever seems to be there when I decide to go but maybe thats just me. Futureball is a similar boat as Hell Survivors it can be fun but nobody really goes there to play speedball anymore and the only real selling point they have is that they sometimes do bring your own paint which is hard to find anymore. I can't really speak to No limits in Taylor but as I haven't heard of it that most likely means it's not huge on the speedball scene. Now on to the places I recommend you try Warzone, it's in Ohio but it has a great indoor and outdoor they recently got a new set of PSP bunkers and turf for the outdoor and is currently a great place to play the downside being that it is pretty expensive, typically between 60 and 80 bucks depending on what deal they are doing. On the plus side there is a chick-fil-a at the mall nearby which is a worthwhile stopping point unless you go on a sunday and they are closed which sucks. Finally my recommendation TCP in Lansing, they operate out of the old Chaos field which is actually in Charlotte and might be kind of a haul depending on where you're coming from but it has in my opinion the best competition in the state and good prices at 45 bucks for entry and a case. TLDR go to Warzone or TCP Lansing for speedball, if you happen to be a woodsballer and I read you completely wrong go to Hells or Futureball also if you currently don't have a pbnation account you should probably go ahead and make on since they have relatively up to date field listings with ratings on them and what ammenities they have and finally the etek3 is a decent gun but if you want more info send me an email mdavidh@umich.edu and I can point you in possibly a better direction. and now I realize I've spent the 20 minutes crafting this response and not studying for my reactions exam damn

Output: I really like our Jerseys I think they will be even better once we swith them to Maize and Blue for next year. The school didn't pay for any of the jersey design fees those all came out of pocket and we ok'd everything. Digital camo would seem to indicate kids running around with guns in woods which is very far from what we do so no thank you I'll stick with what we came up with.


Input: [Date] 4 years 11 weeks ago [Title] my role [Body]

Output: I play the Dorito Back position which basically means I shoot a lot so that the players in front of me can advance up the field. All the gear you listed is outdated but in paintball that doesn't really mean much it's kinda like Golf yeah the wooden drive may not work as well as the Titanium shiny one but it will still work.

Output: It can be pretty dangerous especially in warmups with multiple throwers throwing at the same time. Especially in high school when people are learning new techniques and shots tend to go everywhere. During my high school days the rule was to never walk with your back to either the shotput or discus rings just in case but it's pretty easy to slip once and get nailed.

But if given the choice between a random non-NCAA tourney college game and a random NBA game? I'd always pick the NBA. [Title]

By comparison, Funchess was the epitome of the Hoke era in underacheiving. [Title]

Input: [Date] 33 weeks 6 days ago [Body] I'd bump your YPA average up a bit to maybe 7.5 YPA as 6 YPA would rank 111th in the NCAA this year. I agree with you about he ideal QB however. An accurate QB who has the ability to make the defense pay when they forget to pay attention to his legs is by far the hardest to defend for defenses. [Title]

Output: I'd bump your YPA average up


Input: [Date] 34 weeks 1 day ago [Body] The complaint isn't that EMU is a cupcake, it's that EMU's coach is a former Cuse assistant who runs the 2-3 just like Syracuse does. Playing them first allows you to try out your zone offense so it's not as much of a culture shock when you play Syracuse. Once we knew we were playing Syracuse we should have had EMU moved earlier to the schedule (instead of say Detroit). [Title]

Output: The complaint isn't that EMU


Input: [Date] 34 weeks 1 day ago [Body] I'd argue that a one sentence blurb is hardly annoying, especially with such a salient point. Playing EMU to prep for the Syaracuse zone is just common sense. [Title]

Input: [Date] 41 weeks 13 hours ago [Body] I did each of their stats in losses as well as with their two best and worst games by QB rating excised out. Admittedly not a perfefct estimate of performance, but it seemed a fair way to do it. Henne in Losses in 06 (@OSU, USC (Rose Bowl): 47/76 (61.8%) 576 yds 4 TD/1Int 7.58 YPA Gardner in Losses in 13 (@PSU, @MSU, Neb, @Iowa, OSU) 92/155 (59.4%) 1195 yds 10 TD/3 Int 7.71 YPA Henne in "middle 9" (excludes Minn, IU for good, CMU, NW for bad) 164/265 (61.9%) 1836 yds 16 TD 7 INT (6.93 YPA) Gardner in "middle 8" (excludes Minn, IU for good, Uconn/Iowa for bad) 150/248 (60.5%) 2027 yds 16 TD 9 INT (8.17 YPA) The fact is Gardner's bad decisions are very memorable, but overall he was very good last year almost any way you slice it up. The coaching malpractice of this staff with respect to his development is criminal and a fireable offense in and of itself. And that's not considering Gardner's athletic ability advantage. Considering the difference in talent on offense (Generously WR = equal, but RB and OL for 06 >>>>>>> Rb and OL for 13), it's absolutely infuriating that Gardner got as much criticism for his play last year as he did. The only Michigan QB to get more unfair criticsm in my lifetime was John Navarre and after that's it's not even close [Title]

Output: Fair enough I will do as you ask.


Input: [Date] 41 weeks 14 hours ago [Body] i think the difference with the AD search is that all those being floated with Michigan ties would be competent hires. It's also a reason why they might be interested in coming back as someone with no ties here may not want to step into the situation. It's not a bad thing to have ties to Michigan, it just shouldn't be the deciding factor. [Title]

Input: [Date] 42 weeks 3 days ago [Body] That's not the way statistics work though. Say we're a 30% chance to win PSU, Maryland, Norhtwestern and Indiana and 1% chance to win OSU/MSU. Then if each event is indepndent, the probability of losing out = (0.7)^4*(0.99)^2 = 0.235 or 24% approximately. So there is a 76% chance under those assumptions that we'd win at least one game [Title]

Hopefully Gardner comes out inspired and helps negate the Rutgers DL enough for us to come out with a victory. [Title]

Input: [Date] 14 weeks 4 days ago [Title] Proud UMF grad [Body]

Output: I think you're generalizing a bit too much. I am a UMF grad and I claim to be an alumnus of the University of Michigan because that's what my degree says. But on my CV, Linkedin, etc. and if anyone asks, without hesitation I tell them I graduated from Flint. No, it's not the same campus or admission standards (for sure), but smart people come from everywhere. I was admitted to Ann Arbor for undergrad, but it was MUCH cheaper for me to live at home and commute to Flint. In my field (chemistry), the ACS standardizes the curriculum for a certified degree and it's the same at every university. The same core concepts are convered and I guarantee that I could take any chem class in Ann Arbor and get all As just like I did in Flint. I'm now getting my PhD from NC State because I like the research that I'm doing here with a faculty member that's in an NSF collaboration with some of the best people in the country, including Melanie Sanford in AA. But having "Flint" on my degree didn't stop me from also being admitted to AA, Wisconsin, Washington, and UNC for grad school. Oh, I also had an NSF fellowship as an undergrad. There are definitely people who try to "fake" going to AA, and I don't condone that at all. But your elitist attitude toward this subject is why many people view UM grads as arrogant and entitled. I'm an alumnus of the university and I do my best to represent it as well as I can. I wish everyone else could say the same. I hope my accomplishments are "polished" enough, because I'd love to climb up onto that horse with you.

Input: [Date] 1 year 48 weeks ago [Title] Thank-you for saying what [Body]

Output: Thank-you for saying what needed to be said. They don't give out the numbers for the benefit of the fans. It's a great honor for the players and draws attention to the great tradition at Michigan. And for those complaining about players making their own legacy, they could always use the number from before the switch. If Gallon really does do enough to have #10 put into Legends circulation, then they can use that number. BUT, do you then honor Gallon or Tom Brady? I gurantee people wouldn't be screaming "get off my lawn" if Gallon had been awarded the #1.....


Input: [Date] 1 year 50 weeks ago [Title] The only ads in the stadium I [Body]

Output: The only ads in the stadium I would care about would be the ones on the video board. Stadiums that use 30% of the board for advertisements are just plain ugly. Other than that, I don't care about advertising. Vendors are all over the place peddling merchandise and services. The game program is basically just an ad book with a roster and a player profile. I don't think you'll ever see the stadium being "plastered" with ads.

Input: [Date] 2 years 41 weeks ago [Title] Agreed [Body]

Output: Good read. I find it utterly ironic that Dantonio said that line about "where's the threat" because as I recall, it was him that said "pride comes before the fall" after Hart immortalized the little brother terminology in 2007.....

Input: [Date] 3 years 7 weeks ago [Title] Good point [Body]

Output: While I agree the joke is harmless and not really that bad, I just wouldn't want to be a recruit that saw that type of talk on here. Not saying we we get a lot of them, but it's possible. I agree that criticism of the staff is sometimes warranted (I do it too), but not when it comes to the abilities of a player. I think in this particular scenario they've earned our trust. But how does JUB put it? UM fans are more like opera critics than football fans? ;)


Input: [Date] 3 years 7 weeks ago [Title] come on [Body]

Output: I really don't like that we're criticizing the recruitment of Sypniewski so much. If the staff felt he deserved a scholarship, who are we to judge? Give the kid a chance. Just throwing that out there.

Output: Devin isn't going anywhere and Parker is a small child...


Input: [Date] 4 years 29 weeks ago [Body] When I heard it was Hoke, I had that feeling of utter disappointment similar to when you think your getting a great present and you get socks and underwear. Based on Brandon's comments about pay and defense I expected a proven top quality coach. Clearly Brandon only cares about the coach being a Michigan Man (Bo man). I hope Hoke is successful because there are no other Michigan Men after him. I am most upset with the way RR was treated. I realize he made a lot of mistakes, but to give him only three years is not classy and not in the Michigan Man way. Regardless of what Brandon wants we should have honored the contract we gave him (6yrs.) especially since he was asked to reinvent the program. Just as DB said that football runs Michigan athletics, this hire will decide his success. The lights, Alabama, etc. won't mean anything if we have another losing season or two and don't win the Big Ten within 3 years. Hoke's first tell will be if he can win back some of the recruits that were high on Michigan. We should be able to get back into it with the defensive recruits. I am beginning to think that Dave Brandon does not realize that running an athletics program is not like running a business. I think he thought he could through money at coaches and they would come (which is the case in corporate), but after you fire the previous hire at 3 years, who would want to leave a safe and successful program for what we were offering. I don't think many successful coaches would take that gig. [Title]

Output: Worst Christmas ever


Input: [Date] 4 years 29 weeks ago [Body] If the annual salary is ridiculously high, then Hoke probably was plan A and Brandon overpaid. Perhaps on purpose. [Title]

Output: Watch the pay package


Input: [Date] 4 years 35 weeks ago [Body] He still has 3 years on his original contract. [Title]

Output: Don't think RRod will sign 2 yr extension


Input: [Date] 4 years 35 weeks ago [Body] I can't imagine another program taking RR and all his defensive assistants after the last two years at M. Their resumes don't look real appealing right now. [Title]

Output: posted from iPhone


Input: [Date] 4 years 35 weeks ago [Body] If i was Denard and Harbaugh is the coach, I would leave and head to a spread program, burn my redshirt and then have two years to perform. His stock is crazy high, he has proven he can be a QB, and there is little chance Harbaugh uses him the same way. [Title]

Output: If I was Denard I would leave


Input: [Date] 4 years 39 weeks ago [Body] It seems to me that our offense is more successful when running at a very fast tempo. This was the case in early games and when down by multiples in the second half. I have felt the offense is a little slow on the first couple possessions. I think if this offense scores early to start it can hurt the morale of opposing defenses, whereas a three and out to start strengthens their morale. [Title]

Output: Offensive tempo


Input: [Date] 4 years 39 weeks ago [Body] I don't think Penn State was backing off when they faked the field goal late in the game. Joe Pa did not want Denard on the field. [Title]

Output: Fake field goal


Input: [Date] 4 years 39 weeks ago [Body] 2.5 years of sitting the bench to learn the offense and develop can mean a lot. Also, he is a former walk-on, so JoePa saw enough to award a scholarship. [Title]

Output: McGloin is a RS Soph


Input: [Date] 4 years 41 weeks ago [Body] I'd rather rather see Denard get a quick pass as a receiver where he could take off or pass it forward as the CBs pull up to tackle. I would think most CBs would give him a big cushion on the LOS. [Title]

Output: Receiver sounds better


Input: [Date] 4 years 41 weeks ago [Body] If Alabama is the home team, does that mean their season ticket holders will get most of the tickets? [Title]

Output: Home vs. Away


Input: [Date] 4 years 42 weeks ago [Body] If stipends were being paid it would reduce one of the competitive advantages Michigan has in recruiting. The value of a Michigan degree is far greater than the value of degrees from other institutions because of the quality of education, access to alumni, and even starting salaries upon graduation. If other universities could compensate by paying recruits then the value would equalize over time. [Title]

Output: posted from iPhone


Input: [Date] 4 years 3 weeks ago [Body] Hahahahahaha, Im Brady Hoke Bitch!! [Title]

Output: hahaha


Input: [Date] 4 years 15 weeks ago [Body] Thought he'd pull the trigger eventually but not this soon. This class is starting to come together. Note on the Scholarship issue, I have a strong feeling we' re going to lose a few players before the season starts, most notably one or two of our younger slot recievers. Everytime Hoke talks about the player turnover (or lack of ) he always sounds like he expects a few players to leave when its all said and done. Should open up a few more spots. Either way Im excited about the potential of this class. [Title]

Output: Great pick


Input: [Date] 4 years 15 weeks ago [Body] First off Very happy about the new "Hello", now secondly Im in a tuff spot, I live in Cali and just find out (yesterday) I no longer have the BTN on my plan. I know usually anything of slight interest about Michigan Football makes its way to the internet with a link. However, I've missed all the spring practice episodes, which were on FS Detroit and can't find any links to them, and I don't want to miss the Scrimmage (not just the highlights) on Sat. So...... Is there anyone out there who can assure me with 100% confidence that the Whole Scrimmage will be up online somewhere relatively soon or do I need to call Direct TV tonight and pay a ton to pick it up by tomorrow. Someone help me out, Go Blue!! [Title]

Output: First off Very happy about


Input: [Date] 4 years 17 weeks ago [Body] Hey I live in California, I just want to know if anyone out there knows where I can catch the Spring practices (on FS Detroit, I'd really like to see those) or the spring game. Don't know if they re online, the BTN, or if there are any links. Plese let me know thanks. [Title]

Output: Practice on TV/ Spring game


Input: [Date] 4 years 29 weeks ago [Body] Not going to lie, I caught myself smiling with excitement multiple times. Wasn't a big fan of the hire before, but I'll be able to sleep a lot better now. In short, watch the presser. [Title]

Output: Not going to lie, I caught

Output: Not trying to be that guy,


Input: [Date] 4 years 33 weeks ago [Body] Always love a "Hello". This is a kid that will take full advantage of the weight room and mask any "so called" lack of talent with effort and hardwork. Everyteam needs players like him, can't wait to see how he turns out. [Title]

Output: "Hello" Baby!!


Input: [Date] 4 years 33 weeks ago [Body] Will DB please just say RR is coming back so i can finally write something on here without getting points taken away..... [Title]

Output: Will DB please just say RR is


Input: [Date] 4 years 34 weeks ago [Body] Oh and thats your cue to take the points because their coming right back. [Title]

Output: Oh and thats your cue to take


Input: [Date] 4 years 34 weeks ago [Body] Well I figured that much, lets see if i get any back when it happens....... [Title]

Output: Well I figured that much,


Input: [Date] 4 years 34 weeks ago [Body] If your defense isn't great than you re going to have to push those scores up a little bit. You guys will definitely score against us but we will do like wise. Its going to be a shoot out baby!! Can you say "Denard at 100%" because I can, no but seriously, should be a pretty good game. [Title]

Output: Denard at 100%


Input: [Date] 4 years 34 weeks ago [Body] WIS is one of the best if not the best running offenses in the nation and Im going to bet that their OL isn't as good as WIS either. Not saying that we're great against the run, but I will agree that playing a team with a QB who isn't known for his passing abilities is definitely a good thing. This is RR's last chance at keeping his Team so I would imagine we're going to see everything he's got. Here hoping we get the win!! [Title]

Output: Yeah, but......


Input: [Date] 4 years 34 weeks ago [Body] How did you get 3 points for saying DG will/might start next year? I lost 9 when I said it. Anyways, agreed. [Title]

Output: How did you get 3 points for


Input: [Date] 4 years 34 weeks ago [Body] Is there anything new with the Dee Hart situation. I know it was said somewhere that the coaches were going to give him a visit. Is he just rumored to favoring Alabama or has he actually said it? [Title]

Output: Is there anything new with


Input: [Date] 4 years 34 weeks ago [Body] Not sure if its more complex, I just think everyone is looking into it way to much. Remember DB has said from the beginning that he would wait till the end of the season to do evaluations, he said it again when we were winning and had a 5-0 record, and again at the end of the season. DB has never publicly put RR on the hot seat and that is why he is sticking to his comments. There isn't anything anyone can say here ( unless it is coming from DB himself) that will cause me to believe RR will or will not be back next year. The fact of the matter is we re all just going to have to wait and see. [Title]

Output: Not sure if its more complex,


Input: [Date] 4 years 35 weeks ago [Body] It just depends on which site you re looking at, ESPN has us with 3 4star defensive recruits, but again just relax. This happens every year and yet some how people forget the process. HS football is now over which means recruiting will pick and we'll start to see more Hellos. Just be patient and let the process play out over the next few months. [Title]

Output: not a fact


Input: [Date] 4 years 35 weeks ago [Body] Ok but thats not a valid argument because its a case that can't be proven. What if Penn State takes Alabama off (a game they lost) and Purdue takes ND off (a game they lost). Now you've just added a win to the conference. There are way to many "what if's" with that argument. Im not saying records are concrete evidence for who is better, however between following/watching the Big Ten, living in Califorina and having to watch alot of Pac-10 (because thats whats on), and using records, I would say that the Big Ten has a slightly better conference from top to bottom. [Title]

Output: Ok but thats not a valid


Input: [Date] 4 years 35 weeks ago [Body] Well here are the standing of both conferences Pac-10 BIG TEN *Oregon 11-0 Wisconsin 11-1 Stanford 11-1 Ohio State 11-1 *Arizona 7-4 Michigan State 11-1 USC 7-5 Iowa 7-5 *Oregon State 5-6 Penn State 7-5 *Washington 5-6 Michigan 7-5 *Arizona State 5-6 Northwestern 7-5 California 5-7 *Illinois 6-5 *UCLA 4-7 Indiana 5-7 *Washington State 2-9 Purdue 4-8 Minnesota 3-9 (*) denotes team with 1 game remaining in regular season. Bases solely on this information (because that's all the time I'm willing to put into this argument) it looks like the Big Ten is do better this year. And even though the Pac-10 has more regular season games left, they're all in conference, so while one team gets better another gets worst. [Title]

Output: I think Big Ten wins this year


Input: [Date] 4 years 35 weeks ago [Body] Yeah I was definitely referring to the game, not the season as a whole. I've been in support of this Team (and yes that includes RR) all year and will continue doing so as long as there is someone running out that tunnel with the winged helmet on. But I say that game was as ugly as it gets because we simply played poorly against a very good team and in doing so looked much worse than the score would indicate, not to mention how it hurts RR case to stick around. Again going into the game I figured RR was safe for another year and that it would take a serious beating before DB would feel any type of real pressure from the school, alum, etc. to get rid of him. Well that looked like a serious beating to anyone who wants RR gone. I just hope this team can regroup and figure things out because if this happens in the bowl game he really might be done. [Title]

Output: The game not the season


Input: [Date] 4 years 35 weeks ago [Body] This was as ugly as it gets and hurts just as much. I was pretty damn confident that RR would be coming back next year, before this one, now Im just nervous for the program. We'll see what DB does in Jan. until then, it looks like thats pretty much all we'll have to talk about over the next month. Im sure thats not going to get old. Hey, maybe we'll get a "Hello" or two to ease the pain. [Title]

Output: This was as ugly as it gets


Input: [Date] 4 years 36 weeks ago [Body] Are people really still trying to get their point across, With over 400 comments theres a pretty good chance it'll get over looked, Im just saying it might not be worth your time. [Title]

Output: Still at it......


Input: [Date] 4 years 36 weeks ago [Body] Congratz you are the first person to recieve a point from me ever, now that might have something to do with the fact that I just learned how give points, none the less you are still the first. I hope this moment rates up there with your first lay, first child, and your first "I told you so" post when RR brings this team to greatness. [Title]

Output: +1 sir


Input: [Date] 4 years 36 weeks ago [Body] Man I hope we get some "Hellos" soon, there's so much hate in the posts below. [Title]

Output: I think we all just need to count to 10


Input: [Date] 4 years 36 weeks ago [Body] I got the chance to coach against Grand Blanc and have seen Hayes run, also have a friend who follows the program so I've heard alot about this kid for that last 3 years. I think he has the same body type as Shaw (although I see Sr. Hayes being bigger than Sr. Shaw) and has good football speed, but he's definitely not as fast as him. However the thing that has MI wanting Hayes is his cut back ability and vision in the spread offense (he's been a starter since his So. year). I think this is a great pick up for the future but I wont be surprised if Hayes doesn't see the field much if at all next year. He has a really nice frame so a year in the system and off-season program should do wonders for him. Oh and he's staying on Offense and if for what ever reason he got moved to Defense, its not going to be at CB, most likely SS, again he has speed just not CB speed. At the end of the day, Im very excited to see him choose Blue, he has a bright future. [Title]

Output: A little on Mr. Hayes


Input: [Date] 4 years 36 weeks ago [Body] Hows your kicking game? [Title]

Output: Hows your kicking game?


Input: [Date] 4 years 36 weeks ago [Body] The skinny on my post above is that I believe Devin will start to become more involved in the offense next year eventually taking over as the Primary QB down the road. RR and every player on the team as well as his roommate Denard has praised Devin ( a 5 star athlete) on his work ethic, and athletic abilities. I honestly believe RR's goal was to get him more involved this year, why else do you waste a RS year when you have a more than capable back in Tate to go in for a few plays. If you don't believe Devin plays an important role next year I can understand that. Again the post was an opinion of mine, but real classy on the moron comment. Tate was going to be the for sure starter in 2010 once the season was over last year, right? RR has said before he wants the most talent on the field playing not sitting on the sidelines. [Title]

Output: really?


Input: [Date] 4 years 36 weeks ago [Body] Size not a big deal, and this is by NOOOOOO means a knock on him, but I just dont see him being our PRIMARY QB in the future. I think we will start to see his Transition to RB/WR/ Player Maker next year with Devin running the show, and the key word here is Transition. If you really listen to what RR says about the team you can start to read between the lines. Last year when Tate was on Top of the world, RR ALWAYS mentioned Denard (whether he did anything at all) and talked about how good of an athlete he was, not to count him out, just needs experience, ect. You always just had a feeling that RR knew Denard could run his system much better than Tate. skip forward to 2010 spring practice and fall camp and you start to hear the hype with Devin and his skill set (most notably his touch on deep balls). Then the season starts and Denard is Gods gift to College Football (not being sarcastic) and what do you know Devin is 2nd string behind Denard and is getting mentioned even though he really didn't do anything. Now I know its been a while since Devin has been mentioned but I think that has to do more with his back problems. Now if we fast forward to next season, Devin is alittle bigger, faster, smarter and has a year in the system under his belt. I think we start to see Devin more at QB (Probably not opening day starter) with Denard somewhere else on the field and lets not forget about D. Hart. With Devin's passing abilities and Denard / Hart's running abilities you can really open up the play book. Worst case senario you move Denard back to QB. This is simply my opinion, based off of the things I've heard RR say, the why he talks about all his players, and the fact that if Denard wants to play in the NFL its not going to be at QB and he definitely has the skill set to play something in the NFL. Hart is an early enrollee and if he makes the transition to college football early like most believe he can (also better production from our other backs who will all be healthy), its going to take a lot of pressure off our need to run our QBs so much. Remember Pat White was a pretty damn good QB and he didn't need to run as much as Denard has. By putting Devin at QB you take away some athleticism at the postion, but you add a playmaker on the field and open up the play book. You don't have to agree but just think about it and start listening to the things RR says when spring ball rolls around. [Title]

Output: His size won't matter in the future.


Input: [Date] 4 years 36 weeks ago [Body] Not sure if its the case here, but alot of HS kickers use a block for FGs, and some have a hard time adjusting to not being able to use the block in College. My guess is thats whats going on. The problem is he may never get used to it, which means its pretty much a wasted Scholarship. RR keeps talking about the low kicks, which is a big sign that he just isn't used to not having the block and isn't getting underneath the ball. [Title]

Output: no block is my guess


Input: [Date] 3 years 26 weeks ago [Title] love his attitude [Body]

Output: and hope that he's a fortune teller


Input: [Date] 3 years 34 weeks ago [Title] I'm laughing just thinking about [Body]

Output: the players laughing at Coach Hoke saying "swag" [pan to Denard still laughing]


Input: [Date] 3 years 36 weeks ago [Title] absolutely LOVED the defense [Body]

Output: absolutely LOVED the way the defense played, and have to admit that it gave me flashbacks to 2006 as well. but I can't help but still feel underwhelmed with the passing game, and would have felt complete if I had seen Denard throw for just 1 td. And I realize that it was windy, but the issues with the passing still worries me. am I just being too pessimistic?


Input: [Date] 3 years 40 weeks ago [Title] Didn't like the jerseys but [Body]

Output: Didn't like the jersey but I did love the "Victors Valiant" undershirts


Input: [Date] 3 years 40 weeks ago [Title] because the sweet taste [Body]

Output: because the sweet taste of victory next year will be so much sweeter when we beat them clean


Input: [Date] 3 years 40 weeks ago [Title] Seems to me like [Body]

Output: It seems to me like it's one of those "if it doesn't work you're an idiot, if it does you're a genius" calls, perfect example being when Sean Payton onside kicked to start the second half in the Super Bowl - if the Colts recover that kick and the Saints lose everyone would have killed him for that call. If that play worked and we scored a momentum shifting TD, and possibly won the game, we'd all be talking about how ballsy Hoke and Borges are and that our players come through in crunch time.


Input: [Date] 3 years 45 weeks ago [Title] Agreed, gets beat up [Body]

Output: Totally agree, he's not a very accurate passer, and although speedy talented on the ground he gets beat up a lot and tends to wear down by season's end


Input: [Date] 4 years 27 weeks ago [Title] I just pray Denard stays healthy [Body]

Output: looking at the strides Denard made in passing ability from freshman to sophomore, I think we'll be just fine as he can stay healthy. Denard will be much more matured and a better passer. but an injury puts all the eggs in Gardner's basket


Input: [Date] 4 years 27 weeks ago [Title] interested to gauge expectations [Body]

Output: of the fans. I think that our staff is definitely something to get excited about, I just don't want the bar to get set where people expect the world next season. it will take time to return to prominence


Input: [Date] 4 years 27 weeks ago [Title] can't argue with that [Body]

Output: very, very impressed with what he's accomplished. thank you for posting


Input: [Date] 4 years 27 weeks ago [Title] before and after? [Body]

Output: do you know how we fared defensively in the year before and after Mattison? just wondering how much he created or if it was mostly sustained success


Input: [Date] 1 year 19 weeks ago [Title] The author of this article [Body]

Output: The author of this article completely screwed this up. If it was based on the rankings he would simply apply to more widely used national criteria to the regional schools. Even a "top" ranked regional school would struggle to make the top 75. Creighton accepts 80 percent of its students and as a 25 percentile ACT score of 24. It isn't some academic powerhouse.


Input: [Date] 1 year 21 weeks ago [Title] They offered Pallante a full [Body]

Output: They offered Pallante a full scholarship and had Williams as a backup but he chose ND. Maybe there weren't any other sleeper DEs that they liked in the class. I doubt that they just didn't consider backup options.


Input: [Date] 1 year 21 weeks ago [Title] That makes more sense. From [Body]

Output: That makes more sense. From the OP I thought you were looking into buying gold as an "investment".


Input: [Date] 1 year 21 weeks ago [Title] I don't know how you can [Body]

Output: I don't know how you can claim it stays pretty stable when it lost around 30 percent of its value in 2013.


Input: [Date] 1 year 21 weeks ago [Title] Why would you buy gold? [Body]

Output: Why would you buy gold?


Input: [Date] 1 year 22 weeks ago [Title] Surely what you mean is that [Body]

Output: Surely what you mean is that you don't have any memories of buying a drink at Ricks until after you graduated?
