I have a 16-year-old niece who is in boarding school with potential for D1. I assume this will happen too late for her, unfortunately, unless she transfers. It would be amazing to see her in maize and blue and a winged helmet.
“OT weighting: As of 2021-22, when college hockey went to 3-on-3 overtimes across the board, The Committee decided to weight these differently. OT wins are counted as 2/3 (0.6666) of a win, and 1/3 (0.3333) of a loss.”

The 4th and 2 call from the 30-something with 3+ minutes left. Harbaugh deserves credit for going. It seems obvious to the analytics crowd, but with all 3 timeouts left, many coaches punt and hope for a 3 and out with timeouts. He stuck with his aggressive approach and it paid off big-time.
Yes, there is a chance that he doesn't keep his commitment, just like there is always a chance for a de-commit or a transfer (granted, a higher probability). Still, I would rather have him commit than not.
I love this video. It seems like the closest thing to an insider view that you can get. It's obviously edited, but you can feel the energy and enthusiasm exuding from the culture of the program.
Going by US News rankings, FSU and Miami are tied at 55 with Maryland and above Minnesota, Indiana, MSU, PSU, and Iowa. Academically, they would be around the median.
How is this a "guarantee"? I saw clickbait articles saying guarantee as well. He said, "we are going to win the National Championship." To me, that's not the same as a guarantee. He's stating a belief and confidence that it will happen, but he's not promising anyone anything.
The audience knew that Kim wasn't in Breaking Bad, so her exit was unavoidable. I always imagined it would be a more violent end for Kim, or Saul would go too far over the line. This reason for the split was not quite what I expected. I still think we will see her in the last 4 episodes.
This year was particularly rough. We had the team to do it. Hughes had a great chance to win it on a 2 on 1 in OT against Denver and the puck rolled on his stick. If it doesn't, that game might go the other way and we're in the final.
It was my understanding of the rule that if a player turns their back to a check at the last moment, it’s not boarding. Did that change? I don’t see how Estapa can be expected to anticipate that turn as he’s making the hit.
What a great road game to see in person. The TV broadcast was a throwback to the last millennium, as it looked like standard definition or maybe 720p. It appeared that the arena was only half full? How can that be for a top 5 matchup?
Yes, the visitors bench is in front of section 5, so sections 2-5 should be the primary area for Michigan fans. I grabbed my two tickets in Section 5 before the season started -- that may turn out to be a good move this time. See you there.
I was using the English language word “questionable,” meaning he may not play, not the gambling term. According to the article, he “is being described as a game-time decision.” You can argue with the source, but that’s questionable to me.
Yeah, I wasn't suggesting it was the solution to not having a good defensive backfield. It's more of a chess move -- if you're not going to pass at my #1 CB, then I'm going to take away your #1 WR.
If you have a clear #1 CB like Lavert Hill this year, why not have him chase around the opposing team's #1 WR? At least if they're going to avoid him, he erases the other team's best option. It seems Hill is capable of covering both outside and slot receivers, so why not shut down their top option? It seems like Michigan hasn't done this in the recent past. Am I missing something?
"Jim, you talked about the offense a little bit there. It’s obviously vastly improved from last year, but I was wondering, can you put on a 10-point scale — last year your offense was blank, this year it’s blank?"
This takes the cake as dumbest question of the year.
You know that shield guy is hating his life when he sees Hurst running free. He has to at least momentarily consider stepping out of the way. I know I would think about playing dead and hoping he trips over me and doesn't fall on top of me.
I like the idea of OSU's decline being directly related to their mistake of passing on Burke. I think "the curse of Trey Burke" is good, but maybe something catchier along those lines will stick.
I'm guessing that PFF gave Evans a minus on his one run because he fumbled, not because he missed a cut. That's pretty harsh when you are knocked unconscious during the play, but I bet PFF just automatically deducts for fumbles.
Does Hawaii's coach realize that Magellan died in the Philippines and never made it back home? A few of his crew did, but not Magellan himself. Magellan's mindset included trying to convert the locals and that ended up being a bad idea.
I second this nomination. It was the most meaningful game (advanced to the final 4) and it continued a period of total Michigan domination over OSU in the major sports. I'm hoping 2016 is the start of the next period of domination...

Haha, they hit the 50% mark ($25k) in about 10 minutes, I think it's safe to say the goal will be met.

Ticket is sold to my Mgoblog twin, haha.
I have one extra in the Michigan section end zone, section 500. I get the actual tickets Thursday.
He'll never play the game again.
No, and this was my biggest disappointment.
Yes, there is a chance that he doesn't keep his commitment, just like there is always a chance for a de-commit or a transfer (granted, a higher probability). Still, I would rather have him commit than not.
Sorry about that!

This was my senior year. At that point, I had experienced:
We were a bit spoiled.
A 6'1" heady guard with the last name Brooks who plays strong defense you say? Yes, please.

Here is a handy seating chart. We would be in the red sections (Fiesta Bowl champion), which is confusing, because we should be blue.

What a great show. I don't want it to end.

This might be the most eloquent, well written recruiting profile in the history of recruiting profiles. Well done, Seth!
Reading is fundamental ;)
There are a number of interesting facts in this post.
It was my understanding of the rule that if a player turns their back to a check at the last moment, it’s not boarding. Did that change? I don’t see how Estapa can be expected to anticipate that turn as he’s making the hit.
That's quite a mix! Appeals to a broad audience: Christians (Jesus Christ Superstar) AND Jews (I'm a Jew, Chanukah Song).

Love the fact that Duncan Robinson is wearing a NASA hat. Seems very on brand.

Yes, they played it twice, in fact. Quite the troll job.
Not announced yet -- 6pm or 9pm.
This is helpful, but who are you quoting? Shea's attorney? Thanks.

Any combo of Prince and basketball requires the game blouses reference.

Irvin and Walton. They are good, loyal team players and deserve the success. Go Blue!

Based on the charts, are we not expecting Braden and Lewis to play in this game? Lewis sounded more likely from Harbaugh's comments.

Sorry to steal your thunder! I just got to 100 points myself, despite being on the site for like 8 years.
One more week!
