By making our defense reactive, any speed differential seems greater for OSU WRs (this is aided by the observer- us blue fans, whose desire/mind perception goes faster than how our DB reacts and in the reverse scenario, how our WR separates from OSU DBs). For example, our brains wants them to goes slower and our DB to catch up but since this doesn't happen our perception makes them look faster than reality.
Or All WRs get slower as soon as they step in A2, ala, A2 drag coefficient effect..
He will survive 0 days as a politician. You think fundamental coaching of NBA millionaires are hard, wait till he brings integrity, honesty, and ethics to Washington politicians...
As good as Beilein has been for us and through 40 years of college coaching, there exists a huge jump in taxing of his ability, character, and limit in NBA coaching gig. There are also the Peter Principle at work and getting-old-but-still-think-young-and-hard-to-teach-an-old-dog-a-new-trick factors mixed in therefor him.
I wouldn't call either of these two states a deep south state.
In fact, VA is much more like NY than AL in many ways. The recent VA political trend certainly shows that it is more like a blue state than a red state (now the result is heavily weighted by the northern virginia popullation).
We got too much white spaces between all mgoblog posts and other few and far in between ads here. We need more ads to fill them up!!! Or go back to the old format!
It is that time of the year. We will have the usual OSU crew here plus other extra-minded trolls.
Just as we will, unfortunately, see many reds in Big House. The students going home for Thanksgiving doesn't help (I think the going rate for the student ticket is at or below the face value....)
From everything said about him from his Fab Five teammates, to the Miami Heat folks, and NBA players, Howard is a truly a humble, honest, and true Blue Michigan man.
In my case, my freshman son, who is not an outgoing person, sent me with an excitement a selfie of him with Howard at diag early this year.
As he was at the edge of the crowd, he didn't expect a chance for the selfie. But Howard waited for everyone and called out my son as well for the pic at the end. This told me all I need to know about Howard, and I am truly proud of having him as our coach.
Although I don't condone self-promotion, I can make an exception for you in this case (very well put). The same goes to all seniors both scholarship players and walk-ons.
Who is going to play longer-chain moves in defensive chess games?
DB knows this and will apply "Max pressure fresh QB". But Day knows this and will counter by a quick short strike passes, and draw plays, etc.. DB will think further and counteract this strategy and so on..
In this case, we need to attack their quarterback who, given that he looks the part this year, is still the first year starter. Don Brown knows even the GOAT will fall off under the pressure, and I am sure he will devise a multiple plans to pressure Fields especially in the hostile condition (everyone, don't drink your wine at the game but bring your cooler-pooper mentality for a change).
My prediction: OSU undergoes a heavenly unravelling dance and we win by a landslide score of 27-21, please...
Another excellent analysis. I particularly appreciate the time and effort put into color your analysis with not only the diagram but well magic-markered play videos.
As a picture is worth a thousand words but a video is worth a million words.
As a Michigan fan, the fact of the matter is that Bell dropped the pass and it was disheartening to see for us and for him. However, through the thick and thin, I am all for him and our team. If you don't stand up for your own team, who would? This is precisely the situation when he and the team need our support the most. Besides Bell has done much for our team since last year, and I hope this is a valuable learning point for him to be an even greater player for us for many years.
If you are a parent, would you throw your kid out for a simple mistake as well?
Actually, these type of posts reflects the state of our football team. So yeah, the message board is crap but it reflects our state of mind and does calm me in a strange sense that I am not all alone in this state of disappointment, distress and dispair.
From looking at this year's offense, I am all ready to subscribe to your theory however crazy it sounds. Really..I need something to help pacify my reality.
Lemma: A nullspace is defined for the extrapolation of the ability of someone who is an expert on a given field to an orthogonal or even near perfect projection space.
Really, Don Brown would be equivalent to a PhD in physics but he would be a terrible manager (ala Harbaugh). The latter would be more akin to a jack of all trade type of person.
If I may offer a piece of advice, many of us appreciate your thoughts on this posting but that comes with a responsibility and willingness to take all replies (good or bad) in a stride without getting personal. At the end of the day, we are all on the same family...
I was watching the dynamics between Gattis and the offense during one of the failed drives, and noted many instances of frantic hand/arm signals/yelling from Gattis and multiple confused looks from many players (including Shea) right up to the start of plays.
I don't know if this means anything but there is definitely a communication gap from head to toe with this offense body. After all the time and opportunity from spring/summer to build this Speed in space offense, it looks like the process is still on going...
We know what they say about communication being the most important in any relationship.
That may be.. But from the right to left hand transfer pass play at the end may indicates that he is ambidextrous --meaning their hand/arm control is uniquely good.
Matt has been a tremendous (sorry Coach Carr) addition to MGOBLOG in providing Bball info, tidbits and other juicy contents in a very even and professional way.
Congrats on your family expansion! Take as many pictures (so darn cheap compare to when my kids were young) and videos as possible for the time sure flies fast.

No need to defend your origin at all. You are being a responsible loving father to your son. For that no one here should come down on you.
As with anything, start with a small spoon without crushing the tongue and then expand beyond the pound size steak field.
I can only hope I am missing the sarcasm meter here...
You are hoping to break the law of Lion drafting - never draft Michigan players..
As Einstein said, Speed is all relative.

You took the whole fun out of this thread....

Lemma: As people get old, they yearn to go back to their roots.
He will go back to being the coach at his old high school and retire among the familiar folks.
That would be a really sad ending for John.
He certainly deserves better and earned more than a benefit of doubt.

Still, best luck to him!!
We all…
My total agreement.
We all come here to share, discuss, and enhance each other's Michigan fandom.
I certainly am not qualified to throw a stone at others, and I am 100% sure that nobody else can do so either.
So let us enjoy what we have here with embracing arms.
Ok, then. This makes it the truth.

RIP and my deepest prayers to his wife and son...

A fake, pompous "RESPECT:" happens only when they win. A true "RESPECT" I have yet to hear from a losing Buckeye.

Hi, Ben!
Although I don't condone self-promotion, I can make an exception for you in this case (very well put). The same goes to all seniors both scholarship players and walk-ons.
Thank you and best luck to you!
This game setup sounds like something like Bo's first game vs OSU. Everything is setup for another epic "not an unset" but convincing victory.
For those who were there at the 69 game, can you share any similiarities or other interesting stories?
There goes your thesis about randomness :"all the randoms favor the other guys".
Who is going to play longer-chain moves in defensive chess games?
DB knows this and will apply "Max pressure fresh QB". But Day knows this and will counter by a quick short strike passes, and draw plays, etc.. DB will think further and counteract this strategy and so on..
Maybe we will play to a draw till the midnight..
Don't tell him Shea has another arm. Then we are doomed for scroll down key.
Bad timing.. Just as when our pass offense is hitting stride as we all expected at the beginning of the season...
In this case, please let ND history repeat but in a snowy condition.
To kill the snake, you have to aim for the head.

Not until someone post Kate's gif or video.
Sounds like you have a close contact personal information. right?
You are having…
Sure, Norm!
You are having another to avoid seeing your wife.
This is another reason why I am so very grateful and proud of being a part of Michigan.
Integrity/honor before winning.
Thankx for another great HL video, WD!
Being selected as a captain tells you all we need to know about this finest young man.
Not only has he raised properly within the deep football lineage, but has a fine character, integrity, and intelligence to be a standard Michigan man.
I am very proud of him and have a feeling that even with or without a NFL career, he will be a part of Michigan football for a long time.
staying away from mgoblog.
I hope he is not a two-year coach dealing with multi-year NBA babies in Cleveland.
Another excellent…
Seth,

that looks like an old cow's dung.
You sure have a way to ruin someone's lunch. /s
But please do not bring them up again.

You get what you wish for...Grass is not always greener on other side, etc., etc..
I trust that coaches know the best from all the practices and so on..
But from the revelation of McCrone only due to the injury to Ross, I am now sure if coaches know the best...

The usual SEC you ain't tryn if you ain't cheating.. In this case, they will strive for A+.

Don't get our hopes up with your teasing.. You story must be at least on par with What's his name with his Korean wife while ago....
