Chris Balas on Brandon Peters: "There are recruiting mistakes, and this appears to have been a big one."

I think that got him into Harbaugh's dog house. Harbaugh wants to see his players working hard and motivated.

coaching staff making decisions...they don't have options. I'd wait before accepting CB assessment on Peters. His track record over the years hasn't always been on point.

And our starting QB is injured and our O-line is average at best.
Everybody needs to chill the fuck out.
Last year's Iowa loss (choke job) and OSU ref robbery cost this team a chance at the playoff and big prize - we were a loaded team and that was our year.
Anybody that thinks you trot out a bunch of sophomores, an average at best QB (Speight), and a bunch of freshmen WR's (even though all will be studs once developed) and just start rolling is an idiot. Now we are down to O'korn behind the same meh O-line and down our best young WR (Tarkik) as well.
There was a recruiting gap when Harbaugh took over and we are feeling it on the offensive side of the ball this year big time- sucks, but it is the reality. Ideally, by next year we will no longer have rebuilding years, and simply keep reloading like other elite programs.
So if you were bitching about Iowa last year or the OSU robbery - I get you, I hear it and there is justification...there are times to be frustrated.
But to bitch about this year's team given age, injuries, recruiting gap, and cirumstances is pretty absurd IMO.

Harbaugh wasn't coming?

O'Korn is going to be the guy, at least until he starts fumbling or throwing ints. It looks like the coaches are going to lean on the defense, running game, and kickers from here on out. That's what they did in the second half against IU. The QBs job will be to avoid turnovers, and convert enough short passes to control the ball and maybe score a couple of touchdowns. It might work. In any case, it's about the only option on the table.

Lest not we forget that Harbaugh himself struggled to get PT and considered transferring
"I remember my own career, I thought there was a time where I wasn't going to play at Michigan and was told that and called my dad," Harbaugh said today on the "Jamie and Stoney" show on WXYT-FM (97.1). "It was like deja vu reading what Wilton was saying. That happened to me my sophomore year."

Yes I know, freep. but it explains well the insanely risky gauntlet that college qbs go through to have a chance at making it.
