1. Families are often emotional and protective. Erick’s dad is just being both.

2. Twitter brings out the worst in many people. Erick’s brother is one of millions.

3. Loveland is a helluva player and he plays for Michigan. That tweet is just dead wrong.

The Michigan football team can’t hear the jealous and butt hurt haters out there….because they have two Big Ten Championship rings plugging their ears!  (Sorry to use a Patrick Roy reference, but seems appropriate here.)  but seriously….It’s just so petty and childish the way All and his family have exited…and to a lesser extent McNamara.  No one would have really judged them for leaving the Michigan football program for better personal opportunities elsewhere, but to give two middle fingers to the program that you had built up so much good will with.  Bad look for them.

I think it's time we move on from this. At this point the All family has completely erased the several years of patience and coaching afforded to Erick when he completely forgot how to catch the ball in 2020.  Thanks for the bounceback 2021 but I'm ready to never hear from them again.

It's one thing to be upset with the medical staff and getting an alternative opinion. but taking potshots at former team mates?

pretty disappointing behavior.

Be better than that.

Absolutely disgusting. I know that some people on here give deference to players’ parents as having “adult” judgment. But as the parent of two Michigan students who knows many other parents of college students, I can tell you this type of mentality is more common than you think. Too many entitled people and parents who are raising their kids to think they are so special and can do no wrong.

I'd like to congratulate Erick's brother for busting out the "penis breath" insult.  Pretty sure that's the first time it's been used since Elliott said it to his brother in E.T.

I think he was in Seattle for Erick’s visit to UW and really meant to type “Penix Breath.” Michael Penix had really bad breath, and Erick picked Iowa so he didn’t have to smell it in the huddle. And they weren’t talking about Colston Loveland. They made a detour in Kirkland, Washington and spell check changes Kirkland to Loveland. Nothing to see here.

Erick and Cade obviously had a bond. They were elected captains and have fallen far short of that standard. All they had to do was leave quietly and Michigan fans would have been behind them, but they're obviously bitter at how things worked out. Have fun operating in a Ferentz offense.

I’m surprised All didn’t go to Miami and play for someone closer to his character/maturity level.

Hopefully he will grow up someday and understand peoples motives are legit and not built around what he wants.

Dad is the driver in how he sees the world.

What's crazy to me is, he was on the sidelines at OSU cheering them on. On the radio broadcast Jason Avant said Eric is down here saying I told you, referring to Michigan winning. Then I believe I heard he was on the sideline at the B1G championship game. To where its at now. Did he get the news that he wasn't going to be cleared right after that? ( Assuming thats the reason)

This is starting to go into bizzaro land, and to me, is making the All family look real silly. If its a medical issue where Michigan docs won't clear you, then transfer and try and play elsewhere. But going out all scorched earth is kinda baffling to me. On the front end, you'd have to think this would effect your NIL value and possibly your NFL value. To me, now he has to go out and prove his value on the field again to regain that value. And if I'm Iowa, I'm wanting him and his family to just STFU and get to work. But maybe I'm totally off base and thinking about it wrong. 🤷
