Desmond This Morning
November 10th, 2023 at 11:22 AM ^
But our conference is run by OSU and OSU wants Harbaugh suspended. So, expect a suspension at 1-2 PM, when Harbaugh is the plane with his team to Happy Valley.
November 10th, 2023 at 11:32 AM ^
When I previewed this post the video showed up too. Click the link to go to Desmond’s full video.
November 10th, 2023 at 11:54 AM ^
If OSU runs this conference then we need a divorce from this conference.
November 10th, 2023 at 12:29 PM ^
OSU THINKS it runs this conference.
November 10th, 2023 at 12:49 PM ^
And they're right.
Case in point: all this nonsenses.
2016.
November 10th, 2023 at 1:03 PM ^
Well, we shall see if they get what they wanted in this case. I suspect they will not.
November 10th, 2023 at 12:53 PM ^
If this SI article is to be believed, and it's a little dated, OSU is not even in the top 10 of most valuable college football program. Michigan is top 5 nationwide and the most valuable in the Big Ten. We bring eyeballs and lots of dollars. OSU may have had more recent on the field success, thanks to them hiring two sanctimonious cheaters, but it looks like we bring more money.
Our alumni base is also bigger and more spread out.
November 10th, 2023 at 1:38 PM ^
I mean I know it will never happen, but being in the SEC would be pretty awesome.
November 10th, 2023 at 11:22 AM ^
Heather Dinich is a bit-h. She needs to go far away from college football. Love Desmond
November 10th, 2023 at 11:26 AM ^
The word is BITCH
November 10th, 2023 at 11:32 AM ^
She was on TV and my wife walked by and asked, “Why are you listening to that stupid bitch?” Ow the misogyny!
November 10th, 2023 at 11:44 AM ^
Remember, she is an Indiana grad so she is a nobody. Listen to any sports channel all day long and all they can say is Michigan has played a bunch of nobody’s. Heather is a nobody!
November 10th, 2023 at 11:28 AM ^
There aren’t many female analysts .. like Dinich is supposed to be .. but, I would chooses Nicole Auerbach over Dinich for objectivity, knowledge, and insight - every day of the week.
November 10th, 2023 at 11:34 AM ^
Does Dinich analyze games, though? Was asking this yesterday. Or do she and Finebaum really preside over the National Enquirer end of the exercise?
I think we need to get a little busier with our boycott of ESPN, start to make it felt.
November 10th, 2023 at 12:39 PM ^
I believe her official job title at ESPN is "Assistant to the SEC Talking Head" which is of course Finebaum.
November 10th, 2023 at 1:26 PM ^
Assistant to SEC Talking Dick Head!!!
November 10th, 2023 at 12:41 PM ^
I guess “analyze” can be interpreted in a few ways - but, she definitely casts an ESPN ranking of teams - and, likely CFP candidates.
The ranking she provides should be based on her knowledge and analysis of all the teams that play.
As for the reference to the National Enquirer.. touché… nicely done.
November 10th, 2023 at 1:23 PM ^
What boycott? I just literally dont watch espn, it's really not that hard.
November 10th, 2023 at 11:30 AM ^
A better description of her, lets see, it rhymes with event that takes place on most 4th downs.
November 10th, 2023 at 11:39 AM ^
What rhymes with QB sneak?
November 10th, 2023 at 11:43 AM ^
Mulva
November 10th, 2023 at 12:21 PM ^
For those who don't get the MULVA reference.
November 10th, 2023 at 1:48 PM ^
Bovary?
November 10th, 2023 at 12:19 PM ^
She's a Butt-Cheek?
November 10th, 2023 at 11:50 AM ^
To be blunt, this little stunt could get you a shunt to Bolivia.
November 10th, 2023 at 11:52 AM ^
Cunting is winning!
November 10th, 2023 at 12:09 PM ^
she should cover baseball instead. So she can analyze bunts
November 10th, 2023 at 12:30 PM ^
Dan Campbell: What rhymes with "go for it"?
November 10th, 2023 at 11:33 AM ^
She does come across as quite arrogant and basically isn't confronted much at all. She is on par though with basically all of the CFB "analysts" they have left over there. They've let a lot of skilled people go over the years.
November 10th, 2023 at 11:55 AM ^
How about Joey Galloway talking about "Michigan has only thrown 3 passing tds this year" at the point he said this Wilson had 8 by himself. Its so nasty and under handed. I cant imagine living in a world of getting your pound of flesh through deceit and dishonesty.
November 10th, 2023 at 1:25 PM ^
1-3-1 Joey was in his career vs U-M.
November 10th, 2023 at 12:28 PM ^
I would not have expected that a user who named himself Boner would seek the path of decorum with the message board post.
November 10th, 2023 at 12:41 PM ^
I think we can disagree about someone's ability to do his/her job with misogyny. She's not good at her job but so are dozens of men at places like ESPN.
November 10th, 2023 at 11:24 AM ^
Greg wants to be respected for his opinion yet he didn't even do any research regarding due process in the bylaws. Greg is effectively a useful idiot.
November 10th, 2023 at 11:29 AM ^
Greg's been pretty consistent about what should happen to the school. He has said fine Harbaugh or the school, but don't suspend him because it punishes the players. Don't ban them from the CFP.
But he's like most of these other talking heads from the standpoint that they're not doing any research.
November 10th, 2023 at 11:39 AM ^
The "whataboutism" angle here is such a pathetic canard. A knee-jerk response to any fair critique of selectively enforced justice.
Either Greg is not much of thinker or he just knows he played in the filthiest conference and has to pretend to be shocked to keep up the charade
November 10th, 2023 at 11:54 AM ^
whataboutism = pointing out precedence.
The NCAA and Big Ten have set a precedence that they consistently tolerate this type of gamesmanship. It is important to point that out when they try to do a take down of one program over it.
November 10th, 2023 at 11:57 AM ^
This exactly. You arent trying to deflect by saying "School A paid recruits off and should be punished" that is whataboutism. We are talking about levying punishment for the same actions that are common place. That is called a well thought out defense.
November 10th, 2023 at 11:26 AM ^
Desmond tells the truth
November 10th, 2023 at 11:26 AM ^
I thought Desmond was great on “Get Up” this morning. Of course, the point noted by the “X” / Tweet was the sixth or seventh perspective he raised.
It began with.. Let the process play out… followed by staff members with NFL experience adjusting at halftime.. the talent level increasing with Hutch, Ojabo, JJ, etc.. and, he went on.
November 10th, 2023 at 11:31 AM ^
Click the tweet for the video
November 10th, 2023 at 11:27 AM ^
Hail to Desmond Howard.
November 10th, 2023 at 11:28 AM ^
Des should immediately resign from ESPN and then sue under the grounds cruel and unusual punishment for having to appear with complete dip shits like Dinich and Greenberg.
November 10th, 2023 at 11:28 AM ^
When this suspension comes out, I'm going to call the Big 10 and complain this not fair to the Michigan coach, Michigan team, Michigan alums, and Michigan fans around the country. I know I'll get an automated voice recording. Here is the number to the Big 10 offices in Chicago. Phone: (847) 696-1010
November 10th, 2023 at 11:38 AM ^
THANK YOU!!!!
Count me in!
GO BLUE!!!
Whatever may come, BEAT State (Penn and Ohio)!!!
November 10th, 2023 at 11:31 AM ^
This is the problem. The jerk Howard is talking to does not know what due process is and doesn't really care. He read something in the press that says Michigan did something and he wants action.
This is why settlement in any legal proceeding is the best alternative. Whenever one of the parties does not want to settle, I tell them to take a break and take a walk outside. I also tell them to look at the first 12 people they come across on the street and ask themselves if they trust those people to decide the case at hand.
It is usually pretty effective as I am in California.
November 10th, 2023 at 12:14 PM ^
in the land of fruits and nuts. Gotta love it
November 10th, 2023 at 11:32 AM ^
What's silly is that Dinich and Finebaum believe Petitti has provided enough evidence to suspend Harbaugh. Did they actually read the BIG notice sent to Michigan? Minimal diligence can prove how thin and flimsy their evidence is but no, they'll just assume.
November 10th, 2023 at 11:34 AM ^
No they just want people noticing them end of story
November 10th, 2023 at 11:39 AM ^
I surprised that "dick with ears" Finebaum had time to review since it must take him 3-4 hours per day to pull his head out of Saban's ass. Maybe M medical school should develop a new colonoscopy scope and called it "Finebaum".
