There was apparently a good deal of consternation amongst OSU students and alumni over how in the fuck this nitwit Pan was chosen, and it's pretty obvious to me that it was because the president of OSU is a bitcoin shill, and he asserted his influence to get his fellow bitcoin shill the speaker gig.
Once upon a time, famous entrepreneurs got famous for creating businesses that created or provided tangible goods and services with actual value. "Social entrepreneur" is basically snake oil vaporware.
Having said that, I've never attended a commencement that wasn't an incredibly boring affair, with the speech being the worst part. That includes my own HS commencement and my first U-M degree commencement (speech by Walter Mondale zzzzz), my daughter's HS commencement, my nephew's U-M commencement (speech by Michael Bloomberg zzzzz), and my ex-SIL's commencement. I didn't bother attending commencement for my second U-M degree, and my daughter had no interest in attending commencement for her degree from Wisconsin, which I was thankful for.
"two time Joe Moore winner has most linemen in the NFL"
Sherrone is obviously an excellent OL coach, but Glasgow, Onwenu, Ruiz, Mayfield, Runyan, and Bredeson did not have Moore as their OL coach.
The correct statement is: "Michigan, whose head coach Sherrone Moore is a two-time winner of the Joe Moore Award, has the most offensive linemen in the NFL."
Groats (or in some cases, "berries") are the hulled kernels of various cereal grains, such as oat, wheat, rye, and barley. Groats are whole grains that include the cereal germ and fiber-rich bran portion of the grain, as well as the endosperm (which is the usual product of milling).
Groats can also be produced from pseudocereal seeds such as buckwheat.
Culinary uses Groats are nutritious but can be difficult to chew, so they are often soaked before cooking. Groats are used as an ingredient in soup, porridge, bread, and vegetable-based milk.
Groats of many cereals are the basis of kasha, a porridge-like staple meal of Eastern Europe and Eurasia. In North America kasha or kashi usually refers to roasted buckwheat groats in particular.
In North India, cut or coarsely ground wheat groats are known as dalia and are commonly prepared with milk into a sweet porridge or with vegetables and spices into salty preparations.
In Yemen, boiled groats are eaten as a hot breakfast cereal, known as harish, and topped with clarified butter (samneh), or with honey. In Palestine and Syria, the same dish is known locally as ğarīš which may also refer to the farinaceous dish of semolina.
Parboiled and cut durum wheat groats, known as bulgur, are an essential ingredient of many Middle Eastern dishes such as mansaf and tabbouleh.
Groats are also used in some sausages, such as black puddings. A traditional dish from the Black Country in England is groaty pudding (not to be confused with groats pudding). Groaty pudding is made from soaked groats, leeks, onions, beef, and beef stock, and baked up to 16 hours; it is a traditional meal on Guy Fawkes Night.
Sliced oat groats are known as steel-cut oats, pinhead oats, coarse or Irish oatmeal.
Coarse barley flour is made by milling barley groats.
C'mon, you can't just describe it as "booze" to we degenerate alcoholics that comprise the MGoCommunity and leave it at that—what kind of "booze" is in the bottles?
Over the last 100 years, the only Kentucky coach to never have a losing season was Bear Bryant, who coached there from 1946 through 1953. He's also the only Kentucky HC to lead the Wildcats to a conference title, in 1950.
One thing the portal and NIL craziness has done is to put a final stake in the notion that anything more than a tiny, tiny percentage of players prioritize getting an education at any particular school, whether it's Michigan or some other institution. The quality and specific nature of the education they get is far down the list of the things that actually determine their decisions, and I think it's actually been that way for a long time.
The last Detroit team to win the NFL championship—1957—had two players from Michigan, two from MSU, two from Notre Dame, and one from OSU. They seemed to play pretty well together.
I’ve just finished an Elijah Craig Bourbon old fashioned with a couple of Luxardo cherries. And I’m going to have another one in honor of my FIL who passed yesterday at the age of 99.
"Some higher-ups want a G5-only playoff in place of the traditional bowl games."
If the G5 have their own playoff, there will be people agitating almost immediately for the G5 playoff winner to play the BIG/SEC playoff winner. Boffo ratings.
Mine's an SR5 with the V8. Lousy gas mileage but I don't drive very long distances. It's basically as much of a pickup for me as it is a passenger vehicle.
It would be beyond stupid to let the BBQ at the Big House die—can’t imagine Moore would let that happen.
As for the food, there are places in A2 and the Detroit area that serve good quality BBQ—with the budget that the athletic department has, there’s no excuse for serving lousy food.
Like many others here, I've been a daily user of the internet since its early days, and the amount of time I've spent on stock photo & illustration websites, news & political websites, commercial sales sites, blogs, and social media platforms for both business and pleasure would probably horrify me if I were able to total it all up.
In all that time, I've never encountered a website with as many weird basic functionality problems as MGoBlog. I'm not a tech guy, but having had some experience in working on the design of a website programmed in Drupal—which was a clunky, clumsy platform to design for—I wonder if that's part of the problem.
Michigan's overall record over the past 30+ years is 14 Frozen Four appearances with just 2 national championships. Brian just said on the Roundtable that Michigan is the least talented team in the FF. Not a recipe for optimism.
Eventually the Wolverine Den morphed into a regular greasy spoon diner not far down the block from the Brown Jug, and I ate at the Den frequently in the 1970s.

"you need NFL 3.0 missing like 10 guys"
Going solely from the title, I assumed initially that it was referring to some NFL-based video game whose third iteration was buggy and incomplete.

Since OSU unlocked their NIL potential and won the offseason, Gach is a Buckeye, right?
I think we should go back to the days when the only legal place to gamble was Nevada.
And gamblers who didn't win called it a "loss" not a "beat."

Don't forget the troughs at Tiger Stadium. Awesome way to get a quick piss in between innings.

Boden was 6'-3"/270, which is a mountain away from the guy they just got.
Getting 8 guys picked is great, but I don't think we're gonna tie the record.
That's not a reassuring comparison.
Did you think that by this point in the draft—not far from the end of the second round—that Michigan would have just 3 guys drafted?
Unless there’s an insane run of lower-round Wolverines, I think we can dispense with the idea we’re setting a draft record.

I guess that's why every postseason playoff game in the NHL, MLB, NBA, and NFL is played in a neutral site.
11 drafted and four UFAs.
Whispy ghosts. Maybe it was all a mirage, or a particularly pleasant dream.
Looks like one productive route to getting drafted in the first round is playing for a team that got beat by Michigan.
Apparently Michigan won a national championship with JJ and a bunch of try-hard nobodies.
LOL

“The forecast calls for mostly sunny skies and temps in the mid-50s at noon next Saturday”
Lies. The weather at Michigan spring games is always cloudy, low 40s, with blustery winds.
So Lew Alcindor (Kareem), Garnett, and now Bryant were possibly Wolverines?
I guess we needed our own version of Sam Gilbert. Ed Martin just wasn’t up to the job.

“we will lose battles with players we have superior relationships with”
The superior relationships these days are with money.
Mohler?
Across all sports since 1960, I’d bet no other school in the country has had as many close-but-no-cigar seasons as Michigan.
Why the hell would the NFL actively try to prevent that? JFC, can he be any worse than Dan Snyder or Haslam or York or McCaskey?
Translation: I'm bored to death being retired and I don't have anything else in my life that really interests me full-time.

The Wolverine Den was originally a restaurant/night spot on South U, not a clothing store.
This page in that same day's Daily (March 19, 1948) shows their opening night ad:

I think the NHL should go back to the Original Six.
