Spring Practice Recap: Offense

Feelingsball to start. QB battle for real. Hello Ty Isaac. Wide receivers? Ace deploys the word "shambolic," and is not talking about the offensive line!

Spring Practice Recap: Defense

starts at 27:53

Backups mostly but we can still infer some things. Tyree Kinnel can play. Still on board with Jeremy Clark over Stribling. Mike McCray is major key emoji.

Gimmicky Top Five: Worst Adidas Atrocities

starts at 45:24

There are no surprises at the top. We do posit a darts Champions' League theme.

Inside The Crooked Blue Line w/ Steve Lorenz

starts at 55:02

Steve talks Michigan's recent commits and the massive visit weekend that just completed. We also remember Jabroni of the Week. Score. The very first ever will SHOCK you. Probably.

You are "kind of in the Clark camp" over Stribling about as consistently as I'm kind of in the Michigan camp over Notre Dame.

But let me ask you this: to what end do you think the Coaches are working when they have so publicly and consistently stated throughout basically the entirety of Spring ball that Stribling is The Guy?

Is it your view that there is some nuanced, player-specific psychology going on (e.g., Strib is soft and needs to be built up; Clark needs the challenge of being called out as the backup)?  Or do you have some other theory?

Seems pretty inconsistent with Mr Relentless Meritocracy's general approach to name one guy a starter if in fact the other guy is even remotely close to being The Guy, no?

Breaston did not go to Gateway HS, he went to Woodland Hills HS. There was another M player from that era from Gateway, but I can't remember who.

Unless someone knows definitively to the contrary, I would guess that Thomas was promised freshman playing time as a recruit.  If that was the case then I'm okay with having Thomas for four years instead of not having him at all.

Thanks Brian and Ace for all the excellent podcasts. Look forward to them this August.

Personal preference but Gandaff wasn't nearly as cool as Bombadii.

This is bullshit!  I pay hard earned money.... oh wait, nvm.  

Seriously, the comment "barring something spectacular" lets me know that there will be podcasts this summer.  JMFH is our coach and he will do something 'spectacular'.
