Probably not Warde's decision, but maybe a place where he could have made a legacy (even if he got fired for it) by siding with coach.
Water under the bridge now, and I'm optimistic about Sherrone. But it feels like some institutional courage would have made a huge (championship) difference for the coming season.
If I were buying today, it would be this exact vehicle. But I'll probably wait another 5 years for those vehicles' depreciation to hit the inflexion point of their curve. Not huge on investing in depreciating assets.
Absolutely. And if anyone can do it, Moore can do it.
From the linked article:
“I want to be that story kids can look up to, look up to me when they go through something like I did and know that it will be OK,” Rodgers told Dellenger. “It’s about your mindset and how, if you have the right mindset, you can definitely bounce back and come back stronger than before.”
Not the same D as Don Brown. But it feels like boom or bust is not what we want. Maybe I'm just not smart enough to understand what I just read. But I feel less encouraged about our D after reading it.
Also an all time favorite coach and man. Our hearts were with him when he went down on the sidelines, they are with him now, and they will continue to be with him.
The xiphoid process is made of cartilage at birth and hardens into bone as a person ages. The word "xiphoid" comes from the Greek word xiphos, which means "straight sword".
The xiphoid process's main function is to provide an area for muscular attachment. Pain in the xiphoid process can cause swelling and discomfort, but it's usually not a cause for concern.
During cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR), it's possible to fracture or dislodge the xiphoid process. This can potentially cause punctures or lacerations of the diaphragm, or an inadvertent liver puncture that can lead to life-threatening internal bleeding.
Thank you. The timing is good for those tempted to stop enjoying this. Tell Brian that when the looking back is so good, we can wait until the spring game to look ahead.
This one also seemed timely: "KC Chiefs-level illegal"
Or the university that actually yielded to these demands and handed these things over. How do we not defend him from that? Would any of us wish to work for an employer who didn't defend us from this?
Excellent diary. I don't quite understand why you didn't make it one. It's good enough that I feel badly that it's going to drop off the front page so quickly.
Makes it hard to swallow that we didn't just give them the middle finger and re-sign Harbaugh in the midst of the Stalions stuff. It'll be sweet when the NCAA goes down. Would have been sweet for us to propel that in that way.
The championship still feels great, and the future also looks great for Michigan (to me, at least), but even more so, now, college football as a whole. It would have been good to have Jim in the college ranks to advocate for the athletes, but it is what it is.
Upvotes for both of you. He attacked each day. Days on which he might have attacked by reupping with Michigan slipped away when they did not publicly defend him or express confidence in him by way of a contract offer to side with him and spurn the world.
Then came the day when there was an opportunity to go get Lombardi, and Michigan was still hedging on what he needed to feel valued here as a man and as a leader. And he attacked that day and signed with LA.
Right now, the great feelings about the season and about Jim himself overshadow the saltiness for me. I actually anticipate that I will end up being more salty later. If Jim didn't have the support that he needed will coach Moore? Forgive me for doubting it. Herbert exit may already be exhibit A on that front. And without that support, this fall's schedule sets up to promise us many opportunities for that saltiness.
But, yes, it does make that point, too, if you read between the lines—although I think Mr. Acker did a great job being as careful and irenic as possible to avoid sending that particular message.

To be fair, the meltdown will be justified.
Ohio are about to have the most expensively purchased losses in CFB history.
SD is going to be a destination team for real football players who want to go play real football.
It's definitely happening AS I TYPE.
That 33–2 run must have had the OP crying tears of joy.

From the linked article:
Amari Rodgers tore his on March 25, 2019, and was back practicing by week 1 that season for Clemson.
I'll take this to mean that another receiver was looking like he passed him after the first week of practice.
This is finally going to Pete into the Hall. Maybe Barry Bonds and Roger Clemons too.
Where did you read that it was men's?
Relationship-style recruiting just won us a national championship. I'm ok with that.
He's also faster when being hit by Buckeyes
…
JJ, Blake, Michael Barrett
the whole OL
We've got some huge interview-impact guys...
This thread is overtaking ass.
I read all the posts on here and felt pretty good after them...

Liked what I saw from Tuttle when he played. This is very good. His floor is Bo Nix imo.

Is it incorrect? Seems plausible.
That would've burned me up if I were Jim. Screw Warde.
Reading this, immediately following the previous article, might lead one to pump the brakes on the optimism coaster.
Even though the quote basically admits that he did not increase money for assistants at all from what was already in place when Jim left?
So basically didn't try to strategically use any of that to keep anyone?
I really hope there's a an implied /s at the end of your comment
Watch them less
Remember when it was 28–25. Good times!

I'm surprised this doesn't happen more often for info.
But Stalions was the worst scandal in football history.
Lions would have won that game
I'd be glad to edit, but editing isn't available.
I'm also glad to consider him always on-topic here.
Don't know anything about him, but this is a very needed position. Hope he's got what it takes.
Or maybe he's trying to take his family with him.
Warde definitely was not family.
Most of all, we needed to guard against transfers out. It sounds like this was the hire that gets that done.
Or the university that actually yielded to these demands and handed these things over. How do we not defend him from that? Would any of us wish to work for an employer who didn't defend us from this?
Excellent diary. I don't quite understand why you didn't make it one. It's good enough that I feel badly that it's going to drop off the front page so quickly.
Maybe just dial it back to football marking time.
We've had some good stuff on the blog in this vein recently.
Easy solution is to promote them to co-DC and pay them seven figures each.
Don't hold your breath for Warde to do that though.
He didn't take Jay.
Thought 1: it's his job to win with the Chargers
Thought 2: he learned the hard way that Warde is weak, and now he's taking advantage
Don't they have interns that can do the basketball stuff?
First thing I thought when I saw Seth had written it was that we might need a welfare check on Alex.
Maybe it gets bad enough that we can have a midseason firing.
Don't tell me they let Brian Ferentz coach wrestling now.
Also, we really can't know who all are giving kids advice and when.
On the bright side, this increases odds of setting the draftees record.
Our coaching hires should be like olympic diving. Able to handle a high degree of difficulty, but enters seamlessly with as little splash as possible.
Didn't take a lot of vision to see this coming.

His downfield precision is pretty good. We should recruit him.

Answer: "I'm reading MGoBlog instead of working!"
LOL (me too)
Yes, ALL the student athletes lost (not just Michigan's), when we declined to support him by nailing down his contract during the season.
The article did so much more than that for me.
But, yes, it does make that point, too, if you read between the lines—although I think Mr. Acker did a great job being as careful and irenic as possible to avoid sending that particular message.
