Input: [Date] 1 week 2 days ago [Body] 2007 Ohio State: The offense never showed up and neither did the offensive line at the point of attack. I almost lost it at the Michigan bar in DC at the end of the game. Plus, it was the end of a season that saw The Horror and Oregon--Carr's unfortunate sunset, so a lot of frustration came out. 2014 Minnesota: Concussion-gate. When I watch games on TV with friends, I'm OK. When I watch by myself...I'm yelling and screaming. A lot of yelling and screaming, a lot of pounding the coffee table, happened that game. The fact that nobody on that staff could figure out Morris had a concussion or even attempted to take his helmet away was unconscionable. [Title]

Input: [Date] 2 weeks 1 day ago [Body] My buddies (MSU grads) and I first thought about taking Metro from Northern Virginia, but we knew between construction and just the system's complete unreliability that it could take us almost 2 hours to get back late at night. That said, if you want to take Metro, UMD has shuttle busses that will take you to campus and drop you off near the stadium (or wherever you may are tailgating). What my friends did was drive to the College Park Metro stop, parked there (it's free on the weekends), and took the shuttle bus to campus. We ended up walking back to the Metro station from campus after the game, which ended up being a 30-minute walk (but doable). [Title]

Input: [Date] 2 weeks 3 days ago [Body] I'd love it if the university seal came back on the shoulders. They were worn on the jersey during my undergrad years. Unfortunately, the complete de-emphasis of the seal across the university pretty much means that won't happen.

Input: [Date] 14 weeks 6 days ago [Body] McHenry lost her cool, no question. But that towing company, Advanced Towing, in Arlington (VA), is notorious for predatory towing and I'd go far as to say they're one of the most unscrupulous companies on the planet. This article says that she may have been rightfully parked when she was towed. That said, she lost her cool and definitely should have known better and could have handled it better since now Advanced Towing likely gets away scot free. The fact she continued her tirade after looking up at the security camera was a facepalm moment if there ever was one. I know a few people that got towed by Advanced and shouldn't have, but they don't give a damn. They want your money any which way they can. http://www.arlnow.com/2015/04/16/video-espn-reporter-berates-advanced-to... [Title]

Input: [Date] 25 weeks 13 hours ago [Body] In the interest of full disclosure (even in the danger of getting flogged on this forum): I used to work at USA TODAY in the sports department (my boss was an ex-Daily editor who initially wrote "Go Blue!" when he responded to my CV/resume for that gig). In fact, at one point there were quite a few ex-Michigan Daily writers/editors employed by the paper. If I were still there, I probably would have had to publish this article since I used to work with the college sports desk. The National sports media won't delve deep into this stuff--they only write what they can see. Like a few others have mentioned, they won't think about what the future may hold. Only that "Michigan lost out on Clark and Marshall...UCLA grabbed a whole bunch of highly-ranked players...etc." It's very superficial and I'm not a big fan of it either. But like stated before: It's all clickbait to rile up the fanbases. We know better--Harbaugh can develop these guys to play like studs. That's all there is to it. [Title]

Let's be honest: We won't know if we're a "winner" or "loser" for another 2-3 years when this class develops and shakes out. So I take these recaps with a grain of salt just like the NFL draft grades that come out one day after that's all said and done. [Title]

Input: [Date] 26 weeks 6 days ago [Body] I feel like the Josh Smith signing happened because of Gores' "win now" ultimatum and the fact that Dumars had the money to spend. It was a poor signing. Darko was high on many draft boards that year and, yes, history shows that was an awful pick. But let's not forget Darko was also a primadonna who let all the hype get to his head. That hype let him think he had the right to play regular minutes each game from the start of the season. When he didn't get regular playing time under Larry Brown (another factor you have to throw in because Brown wanted Darko to play more a traditional post game instead of the inside-outside shooting big-man Euro style Darko was used to on top of the fact this was an NBA Finals bound team with a strong, tight starting nucleus already forged), he sulked. The sulking affected his attitude which affected everything else. He was talented--perhaps not at a No. 2 pick level--but it's not like the guy didn't know how to play hoops. He had a crappy attitude. I mean...look at his choice remarks after this EuroBasket game in 2007 that didn't go Serbia's way. Talented kid, horrible mindset. [Title]

Input: [Date] 30 weeks 7 hours ago [Body] This is from December 2011 from the 49ers' "Harbaugh Interviews" ... some very cool Harbaugh anecdotes if you click on the link. Example: A classic story – and I still have a scar on my hand from it. We were probably in the fourth grade, fifth grade. Our parents are best of friends. They were best of friends when we were young, they are still very close friends. But my dad and Jack Harbaugh are very much alike. And we were playing football in the front yard. You know, my brothers and Jim and John, and we were arguing over a call, Jim and I were. Jim and I are – I guess from our parents’ side, unfortunately – very much alike. So we’re arguing over a call, and his dad and my dad just kind of look at each other and go, ‘Damn it, that’s enough. You two fight.’ So right in the front yard, our parents had Jim and Jim square off in a fistfight, just to quit arguing about calls. And sure enough, that’s what we did. And I caught him real good. I caught him right in the mouth, cut my hand open on his tooth. Blood’s everywhere. And at that point, they broke us up. And the funny thing about it is, because the fight was called because my hand was bleeding, Jim claims he won the fight. So he had me come out when I just got back from Iraq, off of one deployment, he had me come out and speak to the Stanford team. And when he introduced me, that’s the story he tells. So that gives you an idea the kind of competitor and the fighter he’s always been.” [Title]

Output: Minnick on Harbaugh from Dec. 2011


Input: [Date] 30 weeks 3 days ago [Body] In case anyone cares, I talked to a former colleague of mine from a "sister" paper of the Freep. (Full disclosure: I worked at a Gannett paper for five years on the online sports desk with at least one other Michigan alum--it was NOT the Freep). He said that Gannett, the parent company, has been centralizing page/photo/copy editing at regional "design centers" for the local papers they own (Freep, Indy Star, Louisville, Arizona Republic, etc) except for USA Today. So it's quite possible somone not in Detroit AND not well-versed in sports (which the latter has to be the case IMHO) picked the faux photo and edited the page. It's still a massive failure and ultimately falls on the Freep editors for not getting it right, but this is another sign of the downfall of the old-school newspaper business: Local papers that aren't produced locally for the sake of corporate economic efficiency. [Title]

Output: My best explanation of what went wrong

Diggs was injured early in the fourth quarter of the Terp's victory at Penn State, when he took a shot to the kidney area while diving and stretching out for the end zone after a catch. Diggs was down on the field for an extended period and was tended to by Maryland’s athletic trainer before walking to the sideline. While Diggs later returned to the game and nearly scored on the Terps’ next series, the wide receiver was in noticeable pain while walking to the postgame media area after the game. [Title]

Input: [Date] 1 week 5 days ago [Title] Um, you don't know what [Body]

Output: OP, you don't know what you're talking about. Williams and Pomona are, by almost any standard, top-ten colleges. (US News ranks them both in the top five.) Academically, they're on par with the top Ivies, and their acceptance standards are among the highest in the world. The whole "declining enrollment" thing doesn't really apply to these schools. And, anyway, the broader decline in college enrollment isn't about quality. it's about cost. Private colleges are more expensive than public ones. In a recession, guess what happens? Also, your logic is bizarre. So these tiny little colleges, with their relatively small endowments, are buying off Forbes? But the huge top-flight universities, with their massive endowments, are helpless lambs?


Input: [Date] 2 weeks 2 days ago [Title] People who do something this [Body]

Output: People who do something this stupid and ugly deserve to get trampled. And it's pure animal cruelty.

Input: [Date] 4 weeks 1 day ago [Title] I wouldn't pretend to know [Body]

Output: I wouldn't pretend to know how things will turn out for Shane. I'm cautiously optimistic. The one thing that did strike me, while watching his limited playing time, was that he seemed smaller and more slight than the average gun-slinging pocket-passer type. Is this perception accurate? Or no?


Input: [Date] 4 weeks 1 day ago [Title] You need to go to Iowa and [Body]

Output: You need to go to Iowa and Indiana. They're both great. Indiana is so old-school, you can enter the stadium at any time, day or night. And Iowa has a great atmosphere. Both towns are great, too. One warning: at both schools, I've never seen so many falling-down drunk students on game day.

Input: [Date] 4 weeks 2 days ago [Title] I love how people argue that [Body]

Output: I love how people argue that noon games let them do stuff around the house but later ones don't. The games are the same length at any time. You still have half a day either way. What a ridiculous and lazy argument.


Input: [Date] 4 weeks 2 days ago [Title] Nobody plays big noon games. [Body]

Output: Nobody plays big noon games. Even in November. You do realize the NFL plays deep into the winter and nobody seems to mind? Noon games are relics. And very few people like them.

Output: Noon sucks. Too sleepy and subdued.


Input: [Date] 4 weeks 3 days ago [Title] The screaming highlighter [Body]

Output: The screaming highlighter color could only be preferred by teenagers. The team has historically worn, maize (albeit in marginally different shades) because that happens to be the the intended color. Which also looks better.

Output: Seriousy, dude? Another thread on this inane topic? Really?


Input: [Date] 5 weeks 1 day ago [Title] I see your point. But mostly, [Body]

Output: I see your point. But mostly, I think, when you determine to attract as much attention as harbaugh does, you're also going to invite more scrutiny. Every little negative thing will be noted. That's just the way it goes. And it's not unfair.


Input: [Date] 5 weeks 1 day ago [Title] Nick's online chats are [Body]

Output: Nick's online chats are particularly bad. He offers no new information or insights and basically just says "only time will tell" to every question. He's lazy and not terribly insightful. Sent from MGoBlog HD for iPhone & iPad


Input: [Date] 5 weeks 2 days ago [Title] I don't think you understand [Body]

Output: I don't think you understand how journalism works. You think they should just sit on their hands and not report a player's allegations -- even after asking M for comment? If this were Bama, I bet you'd be the first guy accusing ESPN of a coverup.


Input: [Date] 5 weeks 2 days ago [Title] Yeah. Only a dumbass like you [Body]

Output: Yeah. Only a dumbass like you would make this a partisan political issue.

Input: [Date] 6 weeks 2 days ago [Title] No. The coaches already know [Body]

Output: No. The coaches already know we'll have a few medicals and a few fifth-years who won't be back. So they haven't over signed. They're under no obligation to inform us of the current roster numbers.


Input: [Date] 6 weeks 2 days ago [Title] Correct. It's so early in the [Body]

Output: Correct. It's so early in the cycle, things haven't had a chance to shake out. Inevitably, at least a few of these kids will go elsewhere -- ones that get late offers from their local team, or ones worried they'll get buried on michigan's depth chart.


Input: [Date] 6 weeks 2 days ago [Title] Oversigning isn't measured [Body]

Output: Oversigning isn't measured until the end of the recruiting year.

Output: There's literally zero chance that guys like Gary will be turned away.

Output: People have said the same thing prior to each of the past several seasons. Sent from MGoBlog HD for iPhone & iPad


Input: [Date] 6 weeks 4 days ago [Title] I think you're generally [Body]

Output: I think you're generally right. But most of the 2-stars will become 3s. And a few 3s will become 4s. It's just the nature of the beast. Under the radar kids who make high-profile commits inevitably get more attention and benefit of the doubt.


Input: [Date] 6 weeks 4 days ago [Title] Given the universe of random [Body]

Output: Given the universe of random OT posts -- where to dine in Paris, Game of Thrones blather -- this doesn't seem off-base. It involves a blue-chip player at a B10 football rival.


Input: [Date] 6 weeks 4 days ago [Title] Which reliable people? I [Body]

Output: Which reliable people? I don't see anyone at the big sites saying this.


Input: [Date] 6 weeks 4 days ago [Title] Well, he's evidently alone in [Body]

Output: Well, he's evidently alone in that opinion, since none of the other "experts" has Jackson to Michigan.


Input: [Date] 6 weeks 5 days ago [Title] Perhaps you haven't been [Body]

Output: Perhaps you haven't been informed that we probably have roughly 10 more slots to fill. The class is likely to end up closer to 25 than 14, according to most "insiders." We could easily end up with 10-12 4-stars (and maybe one or two 5-stars). Also, most of our 2-stars will end up as 3-stars; some of the 3-stars will become 4s. We could very likely end up with a Top 10 class. Top 15, at worst.


Input: [Date] 6 weeks 5 days ago [Title] Seriously, do you not realize [Body]

Output: Seriously, do you not realize we'd end up with 10-12 three-stars no matter what (assuming a class close to 25)? Nobody recruits 90 percent 4-5 stars. We still have about 20 spots saved for the tougher gets, who tend to hold out until later in the process. Better to fill out your roster now, then focus on the touch pulls. We'll get some, lose some. But the current pattern makes sense.


Input: [Date] 6 weeks 5 days ago [Title] Morris has two left, I think. [Body]

Output: Morris has two left, I think.


Input: [Date] 7 weeks 8 hours ago [Title] But they're not all taking [Body]

Output: But they're not all taking the place of 4 stars. We still have maybe a dozen more slots. No team except maybe the top few gets all 4-5 stars. In the end, we could still have two-thirds four stars. And that's excellent. So calm down.


Input: [Date] 7 weeks 4 days ago [Title] I think you possibly [Body]

Output: I think you possibly overestimate the degree to which coaching at camps ultimately matters. You can only learn so much in such a very short time, especially when there's like 20 other qbs there. These camps are mostly about PR and ego.


Input: [Date] 8 weeks 2 days ago [Title] I don't get why everyone [Body]

Output: I don't get why everyone keeps using the word retirement when what he actually said is that he's taking a year or so off from the NFL.

Output: Every team on every board has the complain. Except ND.

Output: Yeah. Because one guy didn't work out a zillion years ago, let's avoid foreign players. It's a smaller world now with better scouting.

Output: So actually you're saying Schefter is a patently unethical journalist who whores for the NFL?

Output: Yeah. There's no reason to believe he performs an invaluable service for the coach. He never has in the past. And barely spent time on this job. So chances are he's just a crony.


Input: [Date] 11 weeks 4 days ago [Title] Why do so many posters here [Body]

Output: Why do so many posters here assume Winston will go to Michigan? The recruiting sites pretty much universally call him a heavy MSU lean. Am I missing something?

Output: God it's tiresome when defensive posters whine about every little perceived slight by the Free Press or MSM. Calm down. It's nothing. Stop being so reactionary.


Input: [Date] 12 weeks 16 hours ago [Title] I'm all for standing. But [Body]

Output: I'm all for standing. But some posters here don't seem to appreciate that there's a substantial contingent of fans -- older ones -- who really can't comfortably stand for 3+ hours. Many of these fans are old loyalists who deserve more respect. And a lot of younger fans are inconsiderate.

Output: True. There are plenty of trades that don't require degrees. But there's wide consensus that college degrees are very important when it comes to finding quality white collar jobs.

Input: [Date] 16 weeks 5 days ago [Title] It would be unethical for [Body]

Output: It would be unethical for Beilein to force a situational "medical" on a player, based on whether or not Beilein lands a certain recruit. Hatch is either a medical hardship case or he's not. Based on Beilein's track record, I'd guess he'll handle this situation the right way. Otherwise, he'd be no better than an SEC footballl coach. Plus, it's entirely possible another player on the roster will choose to leave.

Output: But you could also reasonably assume that at least one QB will transfer once JH picks his starter. Sent from MGoBlog HD for iPhone & iPad


Input: [Date] 25 weeks 3 days ago [Title] Not really an issue. There [Body]

Output: Not really an issue. There will almost certainly be more attrition by the time spring practice is done. It's inevitable. And the coaches may already know of players planning to leave. Sent from MGoBlog HD for iPhone & iPad


Input: [Date] 25 weeks 3 days ago [Title] Hard to know from the [Body]

Output: Hard to know from the outside. Could be protecting against a potential transfer by one of the QBs who doesn't win the starting job. You never know. QBs transfer often.


Input: [Date] 25 weeks 3 days ago [Title] I think if most of us are [Body]

Output: I think if most of us are honest, yesterday did not live up to expectations. Not quite anyway. M whiffed on the marquee targets. Not Harbaugh's fault. But still. Sent from MGoBlog HD for iPhone & iPad

Input: [Date] 25 weeks 5 days ago [Title] Why would a starting senior [Body]

Output: Why would a starting senior in a top-tier defense, program, conference, and university decide to chuck it all for one season at a rebuilding program? Yeah, Harbaugh and all. But this transfer hardly seems likely -- unless the kid has somehow fallen out with his team. But I've seen no indication of same. EDIT: If his mother just got a job at UM, I guess that's motivation enough. But does anyone have any meaningful indication that her son is actually hoping to transfer? Or are people just assuming? If so, that's a big assumption.

Input: [Date] 26 weeks 4 days ago [Title] If he really is meeting with [Body]

Output: If he really is meeting with Harbaugh -- and this remains an if -- then it's actually a pretty strong sign that he's flipping. Doesn't Urban expressly forbid his verbal commits from talking to Michigan?


Input: [Date] 26 weeks 5 days ago [Title] If that's how it happened, [Body]

Output: If that's how it happened, then that's a kid/family Michigan doesn't want. I'd imagine Mattison et al give more or less the same academics pitch to all recruits. But this seems to be the first one who found reason to take offense.

Output: I don't normally assume guys will flip just because they're locals. But am I the only one who just feels like this one is likely to happen? It would be easy for him to end this thing now. But he hasn't. And he clearly has some attachment to Michigan. Plus, Harbaugh and Wheatley. Plus, doesn't Urban normally forbid verbal commits from meeting with coaches from M and MSU? If Weber just met with Dantonio, and if he's scheduled to meet Harbaugh, wouldn't this suggest that he and OSU aren't very solid?

Input: [Date] 27 weeks 17 hours ago [Title] Barring absolute catastrophe [Body]

Output: Barring absolute catastrophe with Morris or Speight during the pre-season, we should assume the coaches intend to RS the two incoming freshmen. Which means we only have two QBs. Which means Bellomy probably sticks.


Input: [Date] 27 weeks 17 hours ago [Title] Thank you for saying this. [Body]

Output: Thank you for saying this. Sure, S&C coaches are important. But jeez. Rare is the S&C coach who's a game-changer, one way or the other. I'm sure Barwis is a perfectly good one. But mostly, it seemed, he just had a good branding thing going. When a team is no good, everyone always points to the S&C coach. Usually, though, it's more complicated than that.


Input: [Date] 27 weeks 18 hours ago [Title] Well, the same attributes [Body]

Output: Well, the same attributes applied to the past seven years, so let's not be too hard on the one guy. You could say the same thing about the "legendary" Barwis. Those teams always faded, too.

Output: Although nobody wants to acknowledge this, it's actually a good book.


Input: [Date] 27 weeks 2 days ago [Title] Carmelo is obviously far more [Body]

Output: Carmelo is obviously far more talented than Darko. But Carmelo is also a prima donna ball-hog whose overall contribution does not justify his huge salary. The real prize was Wade.


Input: [Date] 27 weeks 2 days ago [Title] Josh Smith was by far the [Body]

Output: Josh Smith was by far the worse of the two. Retrospect is easy. At the time, though, everybody wanted Darko. Drafting him was a reasonable bet, especially given how few draft picks are sure things. Smith, by contrast, was widely known to be selfish, overrated, and generally not a good egg. The team didn't revolt against Darko. And his contract wasn't nearly as crippling as Smith's. This isn't a close call.

Output: I understand why the coaches are saying this to recruits. It's the literal truth. But I'm sure the coaches know the transition will ultimately produce some attrition (and will therefore open additional spots). There will be guys who just don't fit the Harbaugh Way. Or don't want to fit. We'll likely see a few transfers by the time spring practice is done. Also, the whole "we only have a few spots left" is a helpful sales pitch.

Output: This great piece is mostly just boilerplate fluff of the sort AC normally serves up.


Input: [Date] 27 weeks 6 days ago [Title] If I were a coach, a silent [Body]

Output: If I were a coach, a silent commit would make me far more nervous than a kid who isn't yet committed. Silent implies significant degrees of uncertainty and deception, and I'd constantly be wondering if I'm being played. With silent commits, you're holding places for them. With players who haven't committed, at least you can keep recruiting other players at that position and not be left holding the bag on NSD. I do wonder re the percentage of silent commits who end up backing out. But I guess we'll never know.


Input: [Date] 28 weeks 15 hours ago [Title] Yeah, although he's failed as [Body]

Output: Yeah, although he's failed as a HC, he seems to be a pretty talented OC. Bama fans loved him till the OSU loss. Then the fans naturally blamed him for everything -- even though it was Bama's defense that really fell flat. Such is the life of an OC.

Input: [Date] 28 weeks 2 days ago [Title] Good for DG. During his brief [Body]

Output: Good for DG. During his brief stint at WR, he definitely showed promise -- especially for a complete newbie. Sometimes his route-running was off. But of course it was. Also, he wasn't exactly blessed with a high-caliber passing attack. He's a really smart guy, and a remarkable athlete. He could make this transition. He may well be a better long-term investment than a certain other Michigan WR.

Output: We definitely don't have a roster full of scrubs. We have a roster full of unrealized potential. Most teams in the league have lesser talent. Also we had the youngest team in the league this past season. You have to believe that better coaching, plus natural maturation, will improve the team. It's just a matter of how much.

Input: [Date] 28 weeks 6 days ago [Title] Yeah, the whole "LA is a bad [Body]

Output: The whole "LA is a bad sports town" is yet another one of those lame cliches about the city. Most of its teams -- Dodgers, Lakers, Kings, even the Galaxy -- draw very well. The Clips and Angels do respectably. So do USC and UCLA. Yes, attendance tends to flag when the teams struggle. But you could say that about most cities. Been to a Pistons game lately? Or a typical MSU football game? LA's NFL reputation had merit only to the extent that LA -- where there's plenty of alternatives, and where there's no real winter -- doesn't desperately need NFL football. But its "failure" to keep an NFL team stemmed mostly from bad, flighty ownership. Also, today's NFL is far more popular than it was when the Rams played in LA. And while it's true that LA fans tend to arrive late and leave early, that's generally a function of LA freeway traffic. If you're leaving work at 6 PM, or if you've got to get the kids in bed by 10, you're gonna miss part of the game.

Output: He wasn't forced. He was told he had to agree to "stipulations." We don't know the specifics. Nor do we know the specifics re exactly why Bosch took his leave of absence. Maybe he had legit health/family/personal reasons. Maybe not. Absent the full story, nobody here is in a position to draw conclusions about either Bosch or Harbaugh.

It's not as if Team Hoke wasn't recruiting top Southern players; it landed a few So I wouldn't read too much into Smith's case.

Output: It's ridiculous how swiftly and decisively the peanut-gallery has given up on Shane. No, he hasn't set the world on fire. But he's had very limited game experience, under pretty crappy circumstances. Most QBs ride the pine for 2 or 3 years. And most need substantial starting reps before they hit their strides. (Few people saw much potential in a young Tom Brady, either). Everybody points to the young QBs at FSU and OSU -- but those QBs are a) exceptional and b) surrounded by NFL-caliber lines and RBs. Give Shane a minute to prove himself before you summarily dismiss him.

Input: [Date] 31 weeks 2 days ago [Title] It's highly unlikely that M [Body]

Output: It's highly unlikely that M will have to pay SF anything. By most accounts, NFL contracts are restrictive only re the NFL. A coach can quit the NFL, and therefore his NFL contract, at any time, without penalty. It's unlikely Harbaugh's contract prohibits him from leaving for the college ranks. I'm not sure such a contract would even be legal.

Output: Thank you for saying this. It's unbelievable that people care who makes the uniforms -- especially since it's the school that makes the ultimate call on what it will and won't wear. And at this point, post-Brandon, it seems unlikely the school will venture too far from the traditional looks. As long as the team improves, I'd be happy if Underoos makes the uniforms.

Output: I don't believe any coaches strictly abide by this purported "honor code." It's totally fine to keep recruiting players who've given verbal commitments elsewhere. Commits are fair game until they sign or say "please stop recruiting me."


Input: [Date] 31 weeks 5 days ago [Title] Hard to say what our [Body]

Output: Hard to say what our decommits will do. Generally, though, Harbaugh's arrival would no doubt have a sensational impact on this recruiting class. He's one of the true coaching rock stars. He'll pull at least a few big recruits. Also, given his reputation with QBs, don't be surprised if he makes a serious run at one of the most coveted QB recruits -- to go along with Malzone, presumably. (Given that M has no established QBs, I could see Harbaugh taking two this year. Yes, it's a small class. But all coaching changes bring attrition, and this class could easily exceed 16). Four of the top QB prospects -- Rosen, Town, White, Browning -- are from California, where Harbaugh's reputation looms especially large. All four are committed elsewhere. But here's guessing at least one of them would return Harbaugh's calls.

Output: They need to bite the bullet, do the right thing, and blow this team up for draft-picks. Maybe keep Drummond and build around him -- if he's willing to be the anchor of a total rebuild. Which he may not be. Beyond him, they really have a bunch of replaceable and poorly matched parts. Monroe is good but not great. And he doesn't want to be here anyway.

Input: [Date] 32 weeks 17 hours ago [Title] Yup. And it's not as if [Body]

Output: Yup. And it's not as if Schlissel can control Harbaugh's thoughts and actions. Schlissel acted surely. He put a (hopefully, evidently) competent AD in place. And the AD has ample money to offer Harbaugh. The rest is out of Schlissel's hands. Also, if we're to glean anything from comments made by botth Schissel and Hackett, it's that M has limited its candidate-pool to coaches who haven't taken "short-cuts." That's a bold statement -- especially if they hold true to it. We'll see.


Input: [Date] 32 weeks 17 hours ago [Title] His apology seemed [Body]

Output: His apology seemed unnecessary. M has allowed in athletes with substandard grades. Some of these students have no doubt struggled. The recent graduation rate is great. But M, like so many other schools, has frequently steered students down the ol' General Studies/Kinesiology path. Neither is necessarily bad. But they tend to be the paths of least resistence, academically speaking. I assume a brilliant educator like Schlissel, having reviewed everything, had reason to come to his initial conclusion. He simply thinks M could do better on this front. Which is true. His apology, I'd imagine, was mostly a diplomatic one.

Output: Michigan doesn't need to "freeze" its few remaining recruits. Hackett said the coach will be hired by the beginning of the year. Recruits won't be doing much in the meantime. And there's no need to make a hasty hire just to satisfy the whims of a few recruits. That would be incredibly short-sighted. Make the best hire, not the fastest. Think long-term.


Input: [Date] 32 weeks 6 days ago [Title] Stoops would definitely be a [Body]

Output: Stoops would definitely be a home-run hire. But I haven't seen any substantial evidence that he's available. A bunch of columnists have suggested that he should go to Michigan. But nobody has indicated that he's among the candidates.


Input: [Date] 32 weeks 6 days ago [Title] Dantonio's actual yearly [Body]

Output: Dantonio's yearly salary isn't actually that high. He made a higher figure last year due to performance bonuses, etc.

Input: [Date] 33 weeks 2 days ago [Title] I find the whole thing about [Body]

Output: I find the whole thing about Mormon coaches feeling uncomfortable outside of "Mormon" states to be a little presumptuous and false. Yes, I'm sure some Mormons prefer to stick close to "home." But Mormons live all over the place. In fact, doing so is encouraged by their church. So I think non-Mormons jump to conclusions about their desires and priorities. Consider also that Mormon schools/state schools are probably just more likely to hire Mormon coaches. Just saying.


Input: [Date] 33 weeks 2 days ago [Title] Don't you think it would be [Body]

Output: Don't you think it would be odd if M didn't endeavor to cover all its bases and protect itself? It would be pretty reckless to just sit back and assume JH is coming. Relax, dude. Sent from MGoBlog HD for iPhone & iPad

Input: [Date] 33 weeks 4 days ago [Title] Gil Brandt is such an ass. [Body]

Output: Gil Brandt is such an ass. He's the guy reporters call when they need somebody to say something quotable. He's been out of the game for a while. He's not a viable source. Go back and look at how many inaccurate statements he's made over the years. Just loves to seem relevant when he isn't. Sent from MGoBlog HD for iPhone & iPad


Input: [Date] 33 weeks 5 days ago [Title] Gil Brandt has long been one [Body]

Output: Gil Brandt has long been one of the biggest windbags in football. He talks to anyone who calls himself a reporter. And he hasn't been connected in years.

Output: This is no biggie. We've got a handful of promising and fast receivers on deck. I'm excited to see what Harris, Ways, and Canteen do next year.

Output: But what do his owner and GM think?


Input: [Date] 34 weeks 1 day ago [Title] Main plus of Stoops over [Body]

Output: Main plus of Stoops over Harbaugh would be that each season wouldn't involve endless questions re whether he will jump the nfl. Stoops would be here to stay. That counts. Sent from MGoBlog HD for iPhone & iPad

Input: [Date] 34 weeks 2 days ago [Title] If they land Harbaugh, [Body]

Output: If they land Harbaugh, blue-chip recruits will immediately come running. He'll be fending them off with a paddle. Totally worth it.

Output: Pretty much every published list of potential candidates has included Mullen.


Input: [Date] 34 weeks 3 days ago [Title] If it's a top coach no one [Body]

Output: If it's a top coach no one has mentioned, my money's on Mora or Richt. Both run good, clean programs. Both have pro-style philosophies. UCLA can't match the money we'd provide. And GA has gotten stale for Richt.


Input: [Date] 6 weeks 3 days ago [Title] We are working on moving the [Body]

Output: We are working on moving the blog to a new version of Drupal, and once that's done I'll get a performance expert in here. For now I think I fixed some of the issues.

Input: [Date] 19 weeks 1 day ago [Title] Anything would be better than [Body]

Output: Anything would be better than the current system. Anything. You could have 'em play outdoors in the middle of the Mongol Horde and it would still be like "dat time travel tho".


Input: [Date] 20 weeks 5 days ago [Title] I was talking about a Spath [Body]

Output: I was talking about a Spath bit in an ITF stating that a major obstacle to an internal hire was removed when they axed Brandon. That's a long way from asserting that Powers is the or even a favorite for the job, but it just seemed so nonsensical to even look at Powers since Mel took a risk and did brilliantly with it. No offense to Powers.

Output: I've heard from a great source that Harbaugh has not talked to Jackson yet. I don't think he's going to stick, especially with Wheatley seemingly there for the taking.

Output: I have no doubt the kid is or was recently in HS. I still think he's had good info for whatever reason as a lot of what he says matches up with things I hear. He had the official offer to Harbaugh before the NFL guys started talking about it. He needs to learn how to communicate these things better, yeah. And stop tweeting recruits. But I think he's an interesting source.

Fitz has a more impressive season than Denard, Gallon is #1 reciever with Dileo contributing significantly as well. We whoop Notre Dame. Good luck to all and GO BLUE
