Not just asking this to…

Not just asking this to belittle MSU… but is it normal to have this many issues in a university administration? It seems like it’s always a total mess and is costing the tax payers lots of $. Or is this relatively normal? 

He’s done a great job but…

He’s done a great job but Harbaugh has also been incredible at picking assistants in the last few years. I am confident he will replace Moore with great coaches if he gets plucked. This is the price of being an elite program. 
 

I am much, much more nervous about retaining Harbaugh. I am really hoping he signs the extension ASAP. Schefter reports 7-10 NFL jobs will have openings and I worry that the sign witch hunt pushes Harbaugh to leave. 

Can someone please talk me…

Can someone please talk me out of thinking Harbaugh not being present is may lose us this game? JJ has played much better in games with Harbaugh present this season.

Fair point. Just kidding…

Fair point. Just kidding around and not at all suggesting they had a right to be violent. 

Let's storm the NCAA Jan. 6…

Let's storm the NCAA Jan. 6 style?? Who's with me?

Is this confirmed? I saw him…

Is this confirmed? I saw him say he was "maybe" looking at visiting this week, but haven't seen actual confirmation. 

Wish them well but man…

Wish them well but man... Brian Ferentz makes Al Borges look like a HOF coach. 

Cool, thanks.

Cool, thanks.

Does anyone know if Eyabi…

Does anyone know if Eyabi Okie played? Didn't see him out there, didn't see him as having any stats in the box score, and have not seen anything about being injured. 

Pretty happy. I just want to…

Pretty happy. I just want to see some more play action. The most efficient pass in football and we have the run game to capitalize. 

Looks like the Live out of…

Looks like the Live out of market games are only preseason. I don't think either of the options lets you stream out of market season games, unfortunately. I think one still needs Sunday Ticket for that?

Thank God. Having a coach…

Thank God. Having a coach leave to coach Westbrook and 38 year old Lebron after having a coach try to leave to coach *Kirk Cousins* might have killed me.

No offense but this sounds…

No offense but this sounds very delusional!

It is an absolute joke that…

It is an absolute joke that our HC is interviewing for another job on NSD. He completely ruined the momentum from this year. But go ahead and pretend this doesn’t impact recruiting. 

Call me old fashioned, but I…

Call me old fashioned, but I like my HC to not be interviewing on National Signing Day. Let’s get him out of here. Thanks for this last year, enjoy Kirk Cousins. 

If he is desperate enough to…

If he is desperate enough to coach in the NFL that he would voluntarily choose Kirk Cousins, let him go ASAP. 

Agreed that we shouldn't…

Agreed that we shouldn't have a deadline.

 

But I think our offseason is undoubtedly hurt by this so far. This is definitely being used in recruiting, probably to more effect than in past years now, and it will continue to have an impact as long as we don't reach a resolution of this limbo phase. Not saying the impact is tangible, but it's not good for recruiting and perception wise, hurts the momentum we built this year. 

Aiden Motherfucking…

Aiden Motherfucking Hutchinson 

I am happy he is coming. But…

I am happy he is coming. But I am not optimistic about our staff's ability to develop him given their history of QB development at Michigan. 

It's almost as if the 2…

It's almost as if the 2 major parties are mostly the same on most issues, help preserve the power of corporations, and do nothing for the vast majority of the people in this country. 

BPONE is back, baby!

BPONE is back, baby!

I will bet my (admittedly…

I will bet my (admittedly not impressive) life savings on this if anyone wants to bet against. 

lotta people telling on…

lotta people telling on themselves in the reaction to this. 

Can anyone explain how…

Can anyone explain how Duncan Robinson is so much better in the NBA than he was in college? Never would have thought he'd be Beilein's best NBA player from Michigan. 

LOL at anyone who thinks we…

LOL at anyone who thinks we are doing this in the Spring. We ain't. 

Clearly our current…

Clearly our current situation with regard to COVID is not entirely Daddy Trump's fault. But, it is very hard to argue that his handling of this hasn't been awful. Everything about his entire presidency has indicated he wouldn't be able to handle a crisis like this, and then he didn't. That's not a political point, but a factual one. If you are still defending him or supporting him, fine, but I imagine there is a high level of mental gymnastics going on if you believe he is handling the virus situation well. 

Ha. Man I know. I am from…

Ha. Man I know. I am from the Midwest and my gf is from Nebraska so its all in the family. I

Maybe I am just hoping that someone is more bored than I. 

Ok, not to pile on Iowa and…

Ok, not to pile on Iowa and Nebraska, but it is kind of funny that they are the only 2 reportedly wanting to play still. And the reason is because I imagine that there is even less to do in either of those 2 states than the other BIG states and they will be even more bored than the rest of us. Prayers to them.

I hope that the fucking…

I hope that the fucking mouthbreathers who think they are making some kind of political point by refusing to social distance or wear masks are happy. 

Has there ever been a virus…

Has there ever been a virus with such variety of effects on people? Seems like there are so many different symptoms and so many patients have different reactions. 

Can we all agree, whether R…

Can we all agree, whether R or D, that Marco Rubio is one of the most spineless politicians of all time? They guy, even moreso than the rest of them, stands for nothing. 

A fair point. 

A fair point. 

I think the Defense will be…

I think the Defense will be fine. Top 20 unit. If we want to get over the hump, the O needs to become elite. Almost every year, all the playoff teams have dynamic and high scoring offenses with great athletes. 

This is a stupid statement…

This is a stupid statement. That being said, I am so so so thankful that none of the stupid shit I said in private when I was that age has been put on the internet (yet..). 

 

Wouldn't really be race related, but, still there'd be a lot of horrific nuggets. 

Never forget Walton's final…

Never forget Walton's final stretch. An all-time Michigan basketball player.

Inglourious Basterds,…

Inglourious Basterds, obviously. 

The possibility that we won…

The possibility that we won't have to play and lose to OSU for the 9th straight time and 16th out of the last 17 due to coronavirus.

The Last Good Kiss or The…

The Last Good Kiss or The Mexican Tree Duck by James Crumley. Good detective/western novels. 

The Spy Who Came in From the Cold or Tinker, Tailor, Soldier, Spy by John Le Carre - Good and entertaining spy thrillers.

Just started Dune. 

Take me now Covid.

Take me now Covid.

Love Bob Dylan. Perhaps the…

Love Bob Dylan. Perhaps the best living American poet. But this is, um, lacking.

How fucking crazy is it that…

How fucking crazy is it that we beat OSU with Brady Hoke and his band of fools coaching our team?

"The culture of the program…

"The culture of the program is such that the starting QB gets called out for golfing too much."

LOL. We are a joke but think we are great because we won some games in 20s before African Americans were even allowed to play. We are the definition of half way crooks. 

 

Or, perhaps he is recruiting…

Or, perhaps he is recruiting well because unlike Beilein he is actually using bagmen, like the vast vast majority of top Bball programs?

The Last Good Kiss - James…

The Last Good Kiss - James Crumley


Great, entertaining detective book. 

Hahaha! 


Any advice on how…

Hahaha! 


Any advice on how to get my lady to do that? Can you help me incept her into thinking its her idea?

Hoke also capitalized on…

Hoke also capitalized on coaching changes and Luke Fickell. Once they got Urban, that disappeared. I don’t think Harbaugh and Co. aren’t making an effort in Ohio, I think the issue is that kids from Ohio in 2019 want to go to OSU more than anything in the world. 
 

I also think their kicking our ass for 14/15 years is a huge factor in M not being as desirable for top level OH recruits. That won’t change until we start beating them. 

My initial reaction to this…

My initial reaction to this was that we should definitely start selling it. However, given how much Michigan football causes me to drink, I think this would be an awful idea. We’d all sad drink to death before half time. 

I am happy our hoops team…

I am happy our hoops team joined modern college basketball and decided to start paying players. 

Infinite Jest is a great,…

Infinite Jest is a great, but very challenging read. I recommend it to everyone. What I would do is maybe get in a book club to force yourself to read 100 pages a week, or at somehow do this. Otherwise you can get disrupted and give it up totally.
