How long is awhile?

How do you know? How long is "a while"?
September 2nd, 2014 at 10:41 PM ^
Well, I would know because I watch football and knee braces aren't stealthy accessories. I know even more because when I played high school football as an OL over 10 years ago (which was before player safety was taken as serious as it now is), it was required for all OL to wear them. So at least that long ago.

crist, that makes me feel even worse about last years OL.
September 1st, 2014 at 9:32 AM ^
I hope this is true because it gives me hope Funk was playing World of Warcraft during games last year with the same remote he was supposed to be using to control the OL's movement, and then Hoke told him no more of that this off season.

Solid thread. Will read again.

helmets and shoulder pads.

Is this where we're posting the new Upton nudes?
August 31st, 2014 at 10:43 PM ^
I mean, I'm not complaining, even if it means I've now seen way more of Verlander than I ever wanted to.
August 31st, 2014 at 11:24 PM ^
No. This is the Jennifer Lawrence nudes thread.

Fun, topical fact: Looks like Kate might have been at the game yesterday. She's a known Michigan fan, after all.

injuries but it was determined to be the wrong shade of maize.
August 31st, 2014 at 10:52 PM ^
...yup
August 31st, 2014 at 11:01 PM ^
I quit looking for more after I found pictures with Henne. I couldnt find any where the Oline has them on and Navarre is the QB. The last image is from The 2004 MSU game (Braylonfest)

I also noticed the team has some very promising sock technology working in their favor on game day. Hell, even some of our more rambunctious MGoBloggers (I'm looking at you WD) are getting in on it... which is nice.

Jesus, man. Really? It does make me curious when this first became a common practice, though.
August 31st, 2014 at 11:10 PM ^
Their also wearing special jock straps with extra cushion.
August 31st, 2014 at 11:22 PM ^
Molk not wearing them.
But continue scoffing at the idea that some might be interested in if/when the policy changed and why. It was clearly recent since I can find plenty of pictures of OL not wearing them.
August 31st, 2014 at 11:26 PM ^
That's why Molk tore his ACL.
August 31st, 2014 at 11:38 PM ^
So maybe RR changed the policy after that. Maybe all the players decided to start wearing them on their own. Maybe Hoke changed the policy when he was hired. Maybe the braces sucked and the technology improved which makes them more comfortable so more players are wearing them.
I think Michigan has a no visor policy too but I thought I saw a player with one yesterday.
August 31st, 2014 at 11:24 PM ^
Under RR it looked like it was the players' choice. 50 and 79 didn't have them and 52 did.

Maize is better than day-glow yellow.

I posted a pic of Schilling wearing them under RR while Molk and Dorrestein weren't. Looked like a players choice under him.
September 1st, 2014 at 12:05 AM ^
Here's the 1991 line. You can see all the braces taped on.
September 1st, 2014 at 12:35 AM ^
Florida State doesn't wear them on all knees. They are pretty good.
Here's last years championship game. Cameron Erving has a brace on one knee only. Bryan Stork has nothing.
Tre Jackson, preseason All American. One knee.
September 1st, 2014 at 12:38 AM ^
You're really going overboard on this knee brace shit.
