Yeah, what he said

Disqualified!

Let's Go Buffs

Buffs eat dogs!

Good old Lloyd

EA Sports NCAA football programmers loved Lloyd. Never had to change plays for years.

Good point and

he is pumping Washington, I feel real good about this game now! Icing would be Brady Hoke coming on and picking the Huskies.

Rich Rod commenting on Michigan Football

What would he know?

Big Ten Asshole of the week

I'm over Brandon

Time for a new target.  We need someone with Don Canham's gravitas to pay a visit to Big Ten HQ.  

I was thinking the same

But then didn't think Speight could physically mount a drive with being banged up in the shoulder the last two series.

59-10

Michigan of course

No, actually

Shane looked a lot better at IMG, the question is will he remain coolheaded under pressure like he did at IMG.

Mgofish sucks

About sums it up

I hear Brian has

an apratment in Ann Arbor named "Camp David Ever After."  Who wants the regents email adresses?

See above

Back to you

What if they actually want to come to Michigan?

Still waiting on you. Go ahead elaborate on your insightful "What if" non-strawman argument.

 

Signed,

PWO

or take the 50/50 bet.  If he really wants to come here.  Many guys will flip from a lower ranked school on NSD.  Did you have a point?  You do know these are not even offers as they can't be accepted.

What if

What if they don't qualify accademically?

What if they get arrested during high school?

What if they quit working hard or take the year off and do nothing?

What if the coaches told them it was dependent on the class size?

What if the coaches told him to work on some weaknesses and he needed to improve?

Many people want to go to Michigan and guidance counselors, admissions people say work hard and you have a shot, then you get waitlisted and you don't get in?  What if you didn't apply anywhere else?  Oh no What if.... 

Satellite Camps

For the lower prospects this is a big win for them.  If they get a Michigan offer early, then other schools start to look at them and they move up the board and get better offers,  then they might without the exposure.  If they work hard and improve, they get even more top offers.  I see these, as great exposure for the kids that would not normally have schools outside their area look at them, let alone, this staff letting them know what they need to improve on going into their high school seasons.  Look at the offers these kids had before the satellite camp and after Michigan gave them an offer.  I think the only downside is we identify a great player for another school and we don't keep them.  Is it better for the kid not to have the exposure and have limited choices and then flip him from another lower school?

 

NO ONE KNOWS WHAT THEY TELL THESE KIDS, BUT AN EARLY NONCOMMITTABLE OFFER (it is a reservation request).  We give kids offers on visits and pull them before they get off the plane if they do something we don't like.

 

Much ado about nothing.  Move along... 

Excellent

More Michigan in the media. Michigan has so many people wanting to come here and compete we are full up. A far cry from the last eight to twelve years. There is no media hit, just more Michigan is the place to play. We are back!

Grow a pair

This is nothing compared to how things use to be done. In the old days, players were hurt and they would make them lick stamps so many hours a week to keep their scholarships. When you put out 85+ offers, you can't take them all. What are we going to do quit offering? These are not commitable offers anyways, they can't be accepted until NSD. Are we gonna cry every time a guy finds out that we offered 85 and too many people want in and he is out? Or is the first to say yes and you are in? Get real! This is no longer the unlimited scholarship era of Bo. You can't over sign non committable offers.

Just changed it

From FireBrandonNow, I'm moving on taking the high road for a few hours.

And listening to them

Talk up JUCO recruits in a massive exodus years makes me laugh.

Know thy enemy

Know your enemy and know yourself, find naught in fear for 100 battles. Know yourself but not your enemy, find level of loss and victory. Know thy enemy but not yourself, wallow in defeat every time.

I have to say

Reading 11 warriors, makes me glad I always have my Michigan degrees to fall back on.

Better?

I despised him as CEO of Valassis, but if people are stupid enough to hire him, I guess I'll let it go now.

OSU has whiffed on DTs for two years

They are desperate for DTs, and are now offering guys they passed on earlier. Don't know why they can't recruit DTs.

I count 5 from the South

I count 5 from the South Florida area, but I trust the coaches more than the recruiting sites.

Michigan Sections according to Michigan ticket department

The band will be in section 145,  Michigan has sections 131-143, Plaza 33-43, not sure after that.  For those of you who are looking at where to buy tickets.  

 

 

Wanker

That's an observation, no reply necessary. Septic-tank Yank.

LordFoul you are "spot on"

In Aussie Rules football, there is a a penalty for "Holding the Ball."  The other team gets the ball immediatelty and play continues.  They are taught never to hold the ball and either try to kick it or punch it to another player.  You are not allowed to hold the ball if you are being tackled.  So i think your instinct argument has substance.

I guess the bright side

is it won't hurt recruiting, we need Sparty to lose twice and OSU to lose once before the Game then we still can win the tiebreaker for Big Ten Championship Game, and next year Jimmy will blow them out so that we aren't in this situation ever again. I can't blame the punter because there were so many other factors that made the game too close.

I am too professional

to dignify that with a response.

Not sure what professional is in today's twitter world

How many spots do we have left in this class?

Anyone have a feel of what a realistic number left in the class is?

Herbie is that you?

Don't want to get your run out of Tennessee, like they did in Columbus. 

I think the key is to say you are a "fan" and all goes well.

Maybe, I'm still bitter over the "Les Miles is going to be Michigan's next coach" report in 2007.  I need to reflect.... 

Yes, there was.

Was getting tired of all the hype leading up to MSU game and Walker recruitment.  We've gone from 7 to 9 win predictions to National Championship contender in one week.  Although, I did put my prediction at 14-1 season on the board, just don't want to jinx us, so I'm following my exact routine each week since Utah game on Saturdays.  Michigan's downfall has always been looking past the next game.  I think Harbaugh will not let that happen and hopefully players are not reading the media hype.  Can this team continue to improve each week like they have? As MSU and OSU surely must be able to from how they have played so far. 

Egomaniac big time

Wife's cousin lives in his neighborhood, all million dollar homes.  Let's just say when she didn't know who he was, he was extremely annoyed.

14-1

If you know what I'm saying!

Bottom line

http://www.advancedetiquette.com/newsletter/may04_issue.htm
Button down, khakis and non-sneaker shoes. Emblem on shirts depends who the company is ie affiliated with M then ok.

Context

Who are you representing with the press pass? Is the orgaization affiliated with U of M?  i.e. paid by U of M, MGo Blog, or a totally independent organization?

If you want that wow factor and turn heads

Dress up like Geoffery the Giraffe with a sign around your neck stating "Casulaty of Dave's new marketing startegy.  Will work for leaves."  Or wear a jersey same effect but the former may get your photo in the paper.

Except the Michigan khaki's also

add that I'm a professional/donor type, plus the girls in the stands will be impressed.  Let us know what you do and the results.  But if you wear a jersey, you'll look more like a kid than a young professional.  Trust me for I am wise beyond your years.

Here is what you do

Go to Mden The Victors edition store.  Buy a button down M emblem shirt blue or white not the dark navy.  Then buy some khaki dockers there.  Don't wear tennis shoes and you are done.  Dress like a rich donor without the blazer.

Battery, me thinks

But that is the common law definition. Assault, an intentional act by one person that creates an apprehension in another of an imminent harmful or offensive contact. Battery is actual harmful or offensive contact.

Was that your compilation I posted?

If so nicely done!

Per whose Twitter?

I think that information would be helpful.

Who has it better than us?

Run that ball!

Good

Now pin them back defense

Keep moving the chains
