Croots!!!  Great day today, we had the BariBariCherryTartCherryBocaRatonBowl (or whatever the hell that was) last night to drive us in this morning, and the Frisco Bowl to take us home tonight!  Not sure I can stand to watch the Frisco thing after the fun we'll today...

... love the early period. Flushes out much noise about committing... then "fooled" you. Love the flexibility and upside of the class.

Glad to see McGrone signed - I think he's going to make life tough for last years crootin' crop of LB's!  It seems like an overnight change from Joe Bolden to the LBs we have now.  I mean, no disrepect meant for Bolden - the kid played his heart out.  But the considerable talent advantage that Anthony, Singleton, Ross, and McGrone bring to the lineup is unbelievable!  And that doesn't even include Bush and Hudson!

As time goes on, we are realizing more and more that a different type of athlete is filling the Michigan roster. Our lines are back to pushing people around. Gone are the days of 30 for 30. Our defense is among the very best in the nation every year. We have Freshman that not only start but show that they are the best player on our team immediately. I trust this coaching staff way more than the recruiting services, and I know they are gettting players that fit the schemes and plans that this staff likes to use. Count me as a part of the excited, and not among those crying that the sky is falling because journalists think that these kids aren't as good. I'll side with the people getting paid millions to coach, thank you very much. Go Blue!
