The private schools have a huge advantage particularly since they have a higher rate of "redshirting". Surprising to see they're not as competitive as prior years.
Agree on the emphasis being on good fits. Also remember we had a "leader" type 4 star QB and he turned out to be a negative in the locker room. Or at least the QB room. A lot depends on chemistry and unfortunately there aren't any sure thing formulae.
The stupidity alone should demonstrate a for cause inability to perform the job. You aggressively pursued and beat off over the phone with a woman whose cause is to prevent this exact behavior? WTF?
And this is where bureaucracy gets frustrating--if there are so many people employed by admissions, you would think they have the resources to get things like this right and settle this in Sept with the student; unfortunately, bureaucracy usually ends up letting things fall through cracks.
Whoever the recruiting coordinator was at the time also has some culpability, the should have sought a clear answer from admissions and clearly advised Worthy's mother on this.

I understand the sentiment of the post but I'm not thanking them for shit. Makes it sounds like we're happy with sloppy seconds, I bet JJ and DE would ultimately have been ours anyway.
Saw comments about technical issues with the stream itself. Ironically, watching from an "unconventional" streaming service, I had no interruptions or technical issues.
I think Harbaugh probably planned on JJ all along and IMO, that was absolutely the right call. Whether it happened this way or not, I suspect the Cade camp feels he was strung along as insurance in case JJ didn't pan out or shoulder didn't recover well. I can understand that....but stop bitching or at least wait until post-college.
Yeah the referee "extended the game..." It's not a soccer game, it's an ongoing evaluation of who's the best, Cade had plateaued and JJ was improving. Pretty entitled on Cade's part. Take the high road and stop talking about it my man.
I don't like the guy but it's pretty unfair to take shots at someone off the record. Barring criminal activity with harmful repercussions, say it and stand behind it or don't say it at all.
They've had one issue with the previous coach. The next guy gets a quick promotion. They've sent scores of kids to D1 programs and currently have the best football player in the state. How is this considered dysfunctional?
Olu wins the Outland and Rimington, UM line wins Joe Moore award and he is the 6th OL mentioned? And the 2nd Center, behind another B10 center? And Paris Johnson who gets abused 2 years straight is listed 10 spots ahead of him?
Obviously these lists don't mean anything but c'mon.
Exactly. And I hope this eliminates any deference to NCAA in our NIL strategy. I get the culture angle but if they're going to cite us for this, we don't need to be saints about NIL.
Agree and then transfer portal, NIL (which he is for but has no control over its execution) and a hectic, year-round job is even more so. Not that I feel sorry for someone getting paid millions per year to be revered coaching a game--but I have to think NFL at this point is much more attractive.
I'm a rep in the sports med business. Apparently the guy in LA is known to throw others under bus. In the world of professional athletes, it's super competitive amongst the sports docs as everyone is trying to get anointed as the next Dr. Andrews. There are MRI's that are read as tears that are either in a stage of healing or simply inflammation and often no surgery is actually the appropriate response. For another doc to express "disbelief" that other docs didn't recommend surgery smacks of self-aggrandization.

Just like pro teams worth several billion dollars ask the taxpayers to fund their stadiums...for which they sell suites, concessions, etc.
Tim Drevno says hello. But otherwise, yes.
+1 for David Ruffin
Depends. I'm ok with him taking a whizz. However, if he's going #2 at their facility, he may as well just move in. Pretty intimate.

Exactly what this is. Corporate move to avoid embarrassment of a fan boycott/revolt on live TV.
+1 for "Puti"
Wow, looks like Scut Farkas.
To be fair, the UM doctors also do surgery for a living and recommended no surgery.

Sounds a little like Howard Dean. And that's definitely Just for Men, Darkest Brown.
Penix penetrated the D over and over
Hopefully JJ just felt like crap/had a bad night and we were fortunate it came against BGSU.
Happy Mother's Day!!

No chance the Med dept conspired with Harbaugh, whoever planted that seed in Cade (likely the CA surgeon) is a shitbag. Does not happen at M Medicine.
If true, dick move by Cade and not a leader move. Wish the article had asked him directly about that.

Can we please just unleash the offense this year? Leave no doubt among future skill recruits that skill plays here. This is the year to show it.
These guys all hate cheeseburgers.

Ah but if they're spreading it on...take my money. I've mangled many a bagel in my day.
We make a lot of final cuts....and I hate being the bridesmaid. Maybe it's just my Monday mood.
Agree. The NCAA does a fine job of preventing the NCAA from doing anything without any help from Texas.
Curious how relevant freep will find this story....

Or maybe Jim is selling Griese on being the unnamed HCIW once Jim finally gets his NFL offer
Can we please stop making daily headlines for all the wrong reasons?
Jim doesn't mention appreciation of Warde.....

Reminds me of Chris Pronger. Hoping for same outcome.

There was also this when he dressed up as JH in Ann Arbor during the coaching search.

How'd you know my real name is Kyle??
Given how quickly he transitioned to D, wouldn't put it past him to have picked up language by age of 2....
I know it's hard to beat a good team twice in a season but how sweet would it have been to beat OSU yet again?
He was busy reviewing all the unreleased footage from the tunnel....
Having something to play for cures this. End up in a meaningless bowl game and this will come right back.

More importantly, we need to control the line of scrimmage.
Does it twitch incessantly?
