The Transfer Portal became a thing in the fall of 2018. From that point, through 2021 (when NIL started), Stanford saw 18 players transfer out and 0 transfer in (13 of them in 2020). With it's academic standards, and a smaller group of candidates to recruit from initially, losing 3/4 of a recruiting class and not being able to replace any of them was going to make winning very difficult for Shaw or any coach.
I ordered mine through the onlocationexp site onThursday afternoon. Haven't received them through Ticketmaster account yet, but I don't expect them until later this month is my guess.
The Michigan side will be in the shade and it's typically cool/cold. The Bama sideline is in the sun at least for a few hours. Sunset will be before 5p - the average temp drops down to high 40's at night that time of year.
If you're not part of a package that includes transpo to the game, then get your parking pass here - for parking on on the golf course.
It seems the insiders are correct and, it's still in line with Regent Ackerman's tweet. It sounds like there was a board of regents meeting this morning, and the insiders are saying it's been planned for a few days.
Buckeye Twitter claimed there was an emergency meeting tonight and that Harbaugh would be resigning tomorrow.
Acker clapped back that there was no emergency meeting tonight.
Agree. NIL and establishment of transfer portal have coincided with their backslide. They’ve routinely had way more talent — and when Smart and Kiffen they had arguably better assistants
But NIL is leveling the playing field. Look at how it got a handful of key UM players to return this year and those players make a BIG difference
But the transfer portal is just as important. The 2017 Bama team was so loaded, and the portal was established in fall of 2018. You’ll probably never see that many future NFL players on one college team again. There are 24 from that team that are still in the NFL.
This year Bama had 18 players transfer out (12 go to the NFL) They only had 6 players transfer in.
Sabat has been outspoken the past few years about NIL and regulating it...it’s been a huge disadvantage to his monopoly.
The 10th pick of the 2023 draft signed a $20.9m deal over 4 years. All $21m is guaranteed. $12.25m of that was a guaranteed signing bonus, that he'll receive this year (they'll spread that cap hit over 4 years).
It's hard to imagine any scenario - other than season ending injury or precipitous draft stock drop - in which JJ would come back to UM. Even though there's huge upside climbing from the 10-20 range to 1-5 range.
I was lucky to be at it's premiere in LA and it's an incredible inside look at the mission. It's not a scientific doc, but there are some really interesting takeaways and science revelations that come up in the movie. The have a treasure trove of footage shot by NASA throughout the life of the program, and looks at how the rovers became "family" to the scientists who worked with them, and how a new generation of scientists were brought into the NASA fold because of them. It's a doc to watch with the whole family. Kids will like.
This was my first game as well. Freshman at UM and had grown up only being able to watch on TV. We'd just come off a 2pt lost to ND in S. Bend (Reggie Ho kicked 4 field goals, and Mike Gillette missed a 48-yarder on the final play).
The Hurricanes came in ranked #1, on a 34 game win streak, hadn't lost on the road since their last trip to A2 4 years previous. It was heartbreaking.
Bo's final year he ended up 9-2-1 with a #4 ranking after beating #5 USC in the Rose. In his final season he was 3 pts away from potentially earning his first national championship.
Also happened to be at the 1994 Colorado/Kordell Stewart game. Brought my daughter to her first game for the 2015 MSU blocked punt debacle.
The only solace I take -- I was not at the App State game....
Having been to all of them except Rutgers and Maryland here's a breakdown - probably echoing a lot that was posted previously. All of them have something to offer and have a lot of similarities.
TOP TIER
UM & Wisconsin - Overall the best. Both are beautiful campuses (edge to UW as it sits on the lakes and is awesome in the summer), with a mix of Ivy League style buildings and more modern buildings. The campuses are both big, but really walkable. They are both bordered by plenty of college style businesses (bars, restaurants, book stores, print shops etc). They both are also walkable distances to the city's downtown. Both the towns have nicer restaurants and lively arts and entertainment. Both towns have all the big box retail stores and malls on the outskirts of town.
Northwestern - Spectacular views of Lake Michigan. Great architecture, mix of traditional and modern building. Walkable campus. There is an area on the South West border of the campus that contains typical college adjacent businesses. However, the campus is really surrounded by a lot of residential (gorgeous) neighborhoods. The only knock is you need transpo into the city. The upside -- that city is Chicago! Northwestern would be 1A
UPPER TIER
Penn State, OSU - Both of these campuses are big, but mostly walkable or using a university transit system. Both have a mix of architecture and have that great college campus feel. Both have a major commercial street that runs along the perimeter of one side of the campus. Those streets have all of the typical college adjacent businesses. Columbus, however is a city (largest in the B1G) and has much more to offer in terms of arts and entertainment (Blue Jackets NHL for example). Downtown Columbus, you'll need trranspo to get to. Penn State IS the town. There's some big box things out by the freeway, but not much more.
MSU - There's a section of the campus by the cedar river - kind of the Northwest area - that's as gorgeous as any campus in the country. Gorgeous mix of buildings, beautiful river and nicely walkable. Bounded by East Grand River Drive which has all of the typical college adjacent businesses But the total campus is probably the biggest land area in the B1G. Much of the rest of the campus is unremarkable, bordering on Soviet-era bland.
IOWA - Beautiful campus, that has a river running by it. It's probably equivalent to the size of UM's central campus and athletic campus. Traditional architecture mixed with some modern buildings -- like athletic buildings. Walking distance to typical campus adjacent shops. Walking distance into the town. Big box retailers are on the edges of town by the freeways. It's a college town.
IU - this campus reminds me a lot of UM. It's got great traditional college architecture, mixed with more modern buildings. It's a very walkable campus. It's bordered by typical college adjacent businesses. And within walking distance of downtown Bloomington. All the chains and box stores can be found on the outskirts by the expressway. If you went to Michigan, you'd feel oddly comfortable here.
MIDDLE TIER
Minnesota - it's the least like any other campus in the B1G. It's the most urban. While on campus, you feel like a typical B1G campus. However, everything around it feels more city and urban. Obviously, all the arts and entertainment options are city transpo distances away. Kind of like DePaul in Chicago, or USC in LA (not as gritty, though). So if that's your jam, you might rank this one higher.
Illinois and Nebraska - Both decent campuses. Typical college architecture and feel like B1G campuses. Nebraska's campus isn't that big, though. It borders the downtown area and is walking distance to the state capital. Because there's a state capital, there's some nicer dining and arts and entertainment. Illinois has a little area called Campus Town on the north side that has the typical college adjacent business. Downtown Champaign is a handful of blocks north of that. Both are pretty walkable campuses.
BOTTOM TIER
PURDUE- the campus is fine. Lots of the typical B1G things above. It's just that West Lafayette as a city feels like a dump. Maybe that's harsh. Very industrial run down. Not vibrant growing. Of course, I haven't been there in 15 years, so maybe this take is out of date, but unless I'm getting an engineering degree, this wouldn't be high on the list.
Thanks for listening, this has been my TEDTalk on B1G campuses...
Unfortunately, the DirecTV app does not have the cast logo (I use Chromecast) on my iPhone or iPad. ESPN does, FOXSports does not, BTN does if you have BTN+
WORKAROUND - I use my laptop and log into DirecTV on the Google Chrome browser. Then I can cast the browser tab, click the fullscreen icon and it's good to go. Anecdotally, i think the stream quality from the tab is worse than streaming from the ESPN app, and with the tab stream, the audio lags the picture by 6-8 frames. Not really an issue during a game, but you will notice it when they go to the desk at half or watching the pre-game.
I think the phrase you're looking for here is "Failing up."
but irregardless, I could care less because for all intensive purposes I knew what you were trying to say and maybe when it comes to being the grammar police I should just nip it in the butt
I went back through Harbaugh's 3+ seasons looking at our road losses and rankings. The better question might be why can't Michigan beat ranked teams on the road?
In the Harbaugh era, EXCLUDING neutral site games (bowl and Jerry's world) Michigan is 10-9 on the road.
NONE of the wins were against ranked teams
7 of the 9 losses came against teams ranked higher than UM
The two other road losses were to teams (Utah & Iowa) who ended up ranking higher than UM in the final polls.
The same question came up to me from an A&M fan who saw my UM golf head covers. His first question was whether we were getting tired of Harbaugh and if he's on the hot seat after last year.
It baffles me. I get he needs W's against the rivals, but Bo had a handful of 8-4 seasons - even a 6-6 season. Lloyd had an 8-4 season prior to the National Championship team. 9/10 win seasons with a few 11+ win seasons sprinkled in has been kind of the norm for UM football dating back to Bo...
Might also have something to do with the tax law change starting in '18, whereby seat license/donations for college sports are no longer tax deductible.
Ward getting an extension and a raise done for Luke Yaklich seems like the only thing to worry about this off season.
X's defense was pretty incredible in the tourney. He shut down/limited some great guards. It seems like the starting PG job is his to lose, but two interesting comments from this week:
1 - SI noted that UM freshman PG, Eli Brooks was the best player in practice in San Antonio and called him a pure playmaker.
2 - Post game presser with Beliein he said 'Nova's defense forced UM into a bunch of one-on-one plays, instead of running their offense. He said it was something UM would have to get better at...
While in undergrad at UM I worked for Dr. Robert Bartlett in his ECMO lab and his metabolic diagnostic lab at UM's department of surgery. Bartlett pioneered ECMO, and at the time (early 90's) our research in the lab and in the ICU was focused on improving the ECMO results for adults, as it was originally pioneered on neonates and infants. It's used for both heart or lung failure or both. It pumps blood out of the body, oxygenates it, removes CO2, rewarms it, and then pumps back into the body. Because it has a warmer, it can also be used in hypothermia cases. But the bottom line is it can take over the function of the heart and or lungs, while the doctors work to fix the underlying problem for the failure.
FUN FACT #1: Bartlett was Chief of Surgery at UM and through his research, discovereed that ICU mortality rates at teaching hospitals (like UM) were higher in July & Auguest -- this coincides with the time of year newly graduated medical students begin their internships and rotations. Moral of the story, if you're having elective surgery at a teaching hospital try not to schedule in July or August.
FUN FACT #2 Bartlett also pioneered anothrer landmark study about caloric deficits accumulated after surgery and an increased mortality rate. it was common not to give any nutritional support after surgeries prior to the studies. They found that patients who accumulated 10k+ Kcal deficits had a increased mortality rate. So after that study, everyone started making sure patients got nutritiion after surgeries...but the thought was "if some is good, more is better." Bartlett's subsequent research found that overfeeding patients after surgery could lead to a host of other complications. His research paved the way for the modern approach of nutrtional support after surgeries.
Jalen gets a lot of shit for that game, but the Raptors were in a 1-2-2 zone that night and Kobe essentially scored against the team. Jalen might have been on him for 16 of those points.
I saw a recre he did of Tiger Woods in my Instagram feed and sent it to my 10 yr old who recently did his first Lego stop motion video. When I checked the maker's page I came across the vids above.
Shameless plug for my son - but your boy might enjoy his first attempt at stop motion. A Star Wars parody.
So I went and looked up this guy, and apparently BTN hired him to do 10 of these. He talked about his process and it takes 250-300 shots to make the videos. Each new shot everything has to be moved ever so slightly.
A "unanimous selection" is a player who is listed as a first team All-American by all recognized lists. A "consensus All-American" is a player who is listed as a first team All-American by at least half of the recognized lists. All-America teams are selected annually in various collegiate sports.
But Tesla's press release from Q3 - where they delivered 26,150 cars. Delivery means to a customer and paperwork is complete. There were 4k in transit -- meaning not completed to customer, that get counted in Q4. They expect to deliver about 100k S & X models in 2017
Q3 Deliveries
14,065 - Model S
11,865 - Model X
220 - Model 3
4820 - Model S X in transit, counted as deliveries in Q4
I've had a model S for over 2 years. Virtually maintenace free. I had two minor issues - driver side door handle stopped presenting, and driver's side floor mat velcro came off. Both were fixed free of charge by an on-site technician within a day. I've owned Jeep, Chrysler, Ford, BMW, Chevy, Dodge and Pontiac over my life. Hands down Tesla is best built, most maintenance free car I've ever owned. Also, fastest and smoothest ride, and quietest ride.
Poster above who asserted Tesla's sales were down for 2017 - numbers are wrong. Tesla will deliver 100k S & X cars this year.
JFW - Tesla's not at "mass" production level yet. They were launching electric cars when others weren't in the game, and so they had to also built out / continues to build out infrastructure to support that. Charging network infrastructure. Battery production infrastructure. They had to build out "dealership" sales network. What Tesla has acheived in a short period is remarkable. Imagine Ford starting today and simultaneously inventing the car AND building out a gas stations infrastructure and a dealship and service network at the same time.
Why people fanboy -- and i'm not one -- is that he's a visonary. He revolutionized credit card payments and bank transfers with PayPal. He said he was going to push the automotive industry into electric. He did. There were massive hurdles, and there were plenty of experts who said he'd fail. He bet that a private company could do what NASA does. He's done it with SPACE X. He's betting people can hyper-travel between major cities. Odds are that will happen.
The foundations for AI have already been laid in the NBA, and with other teams and leagues. There are two companies that have camera systems that track the players in the game and analyze the information. SportsVu is the company the NBA went with and installed them league wide in 2013. They're system is tied to a statistic platform, however it can be used to track team tendencies and even player tendencies. A google search will turnup a youtube video of the system in action.
Second Spectrum is the company that the NBA replaced SportsVu with starting this season. They have camera tracking software for teams, that spit out data and analytics for teams, and the league. But their marketed focus is on machine learning to help your team gain an edge...

I've had a model S for over 2 years. Virtually maintenace free. I had two minor issues - driver side door handle stopped presenting, and driver's side floor mat velcro came off. Both were fixed free of charge by an on-site technician within a day. I've owned Jeep, Chrysler, Ford, BMW, Chevy, Dodge and Pontiac over my life. Hands down Tesla is best built, most maintenance free car I've ever owned. Also, fastest and smoothest ride, and quietest ride.
Poster above who asserted Tesla's sales were down for 2017 - numbers are wrong. Tesla will deliver 100k S & X cars this year.
JFW - Tesla's not at "mass" production level yet. They were launching electric cars when others weren't in the game, and so they had to also built out / continues to build out infrastructure to support that. Charging network infrastructure. Battery production infrastructure. They had to build out "dealership" sales network. What Tesla has acheived in a short period is remarkable. Imagine Ford starting today and simultaneously inventing the car AND building out a gas stations infrastructure and a dealship and service network at the same time.
Why people fanboy -- and i'm not one -- is that he's a visonary. He revolutionized credit card payments and bank transfers with PayPal. He said he was going to push the automotive industry into electric. He did. There were massive hurdles, and there were plenty of experts who said he'd fail. He bet that a private company could do what NASA does. He's done it with SPACE X. He's betting people can hyper-travel between major cities. Odds are that will happen.
The foundations for AI have already been laid in the NBA, and with other teams and leagues. There are two companies that have camera systems that track the players in the game and analyze the information. SportsVu is the company the NBA went with and installed them league wide in 2013. They're system is tied to a statistic platform, however it can be used to track team tendencies and even player tendencies. A google search will turnup a youtube video of the system in action.
Second Spectrum is the company that the NBA replaced SportsVu with starting this season. They have camera tracking software for teams, that spit out data and analytics for teams, and the league. But their marketed focus is on machine learning to help your team gain an edge...
