I know I emulate that saying!!

Can we retire the phrase: Make it Make sense? That along with “Detroit, Whatup Doe?”…

Sorry… To use another obnoxious phrase: “tell me you haven’t watched Michigan football without telling me you haven’t watched Michigan football”.🤦🏻‍♂️

Hair dye aside, I really like Saban in this role. He is very likable, knowledgeable and relatable.

Aww, aren’t you cute? Coping mechanisms are crutches.

Bama’s coach left and they have 10 commits. We have 2 more DWI’s than we have commits.

It’s been 100 days since all of that. Not one recruit. NOT ONE!! Off a National Championship… Just stop it with that.

Man. Having trouble skating and shooting. Lots of good chances. That 4 on 2 looked promising.

Seems like his game is well suited to May's system with guards... Lets hope!!

Now go get Trey McKenney…

A simple limit on trips into the transfer portal would fix this. I believe Jim advocated for 1 time transfer without having to sit out a year. Even if there was a limit to one time a year it would be better than this nonsense. Talk about a complete pendulum swing.

Absolutely not. Many won’t…

Absolutely not. Many won’t remember his late departure caused us to have not many options in the coaching cycle. I loved Juwan as a player and was excited the first couple years, but it was evident that he was not prepared for this job. And Maybe the overall best take is that he might be better suited for the NBA.

But back to the point, let’s not forget JB leaving us high and dry.

lol…I figured. Just being dumb. I thought it was Mikey…

Who is Mickey?

Who is Mickey?

Had my first one at 18 and 20 more since then. Every other year now. I’m 52 and praying my Crohns stays in remission to lessen the scar tissue that can lead to cancer🙏

I’d be surprised if he doesn…

I’d be surprised if he doesn’t end up at Clemson or a school down south. We basically wrestled him away from Clemson when he came here. Lost Walker, Calhoun and Sabb from the secondary. That’s a lot of good young talent in one cycle.

Should’ve been the starter…

Should’ve been the starter. Glad Paige and Moore came back but Sabb is a play maker with more upside than the other 2. Fast, tough and physical. Wish he would’ve stuck around to make them have to start him. Losing Clink, Minter and Jay does not help. All 3 of his coaches gone with no history with the others coming in.

Seems like the ones with the…

Seems like the ones with the players in the class would matter too.  Not gonna have those same long term relationships with players that you've made on visits and recruiting weekends at Michigan this late in the game at another school. 

I did and explained the…

I did and explained the reason for my faux pas above this…🤷🏻‍♂️

Yeah that was my bad. I was…

Yeah that was my bad. I was reading the circled part and didn’t read the rest. Stopped reading after naming all of the other coaches and not Moore at the top. Either way seemed weird to separate them all. I did deserve the neg for that for sure.

Not a lazy take. A lazy take…

Not a lazy take. A lazy take would’ve been to say something after Herbert or Minter or Jay. But enough is enough after Elston and Clink. Jim praises Sherrone and then stabs him in the back and raids the whole staff. Your blind loyalty is lazy. Pardon me if I’m not impressed by the recruiting chops of Wink or Casula. Sherrone could be a great recruiter but it takes more than the HC, mrfunk.

I’m not a Mayor and have no…

I’m not a Mayor and have no constituency…Neither am I spoiled and this has nothing to do with on the field performance. His legacy of a champ is tarnished by his scorched earth campaign to sabotage his handpicked successor. I do remember those years vividly. 

Need to stop with the Warde…

Need to stop with the Warde crap. Jim said he wasn’t going to do the NFL song and dance every year and he lied… And now he’s gutted our coaches and is trash to me as far as legacy. 

Wow. Does not mention…

Wow. Does not mention Sherrone… What a great recruiter he must be. So glad we went with an internal hire to keep the staff intact. 

Barstool? Didn’t they have a…

Barstool? Didn’t they have a female CEO? Don’t follow much from them just unaware of the reason for the grievance. 

Yeah I don’t understand the…

Yeah I don’t understand the barstool hate. Especially with Portnoy being a Michigan grad. But we post Webb, Henshke and Balas who are running at about a 30% success rate..

Again?

Again?

lol… just stop

lol… just stop

Officially starting to hate…

Officially starting to hate Harbaugh. Setting a match to the program that he built. Says he loves Michigan and guts it. Was my favorite player and coach now i will not root for him again.

Question for the gurus among…

Question for the gurus among us: Would it have been better to just rip the bandaid off and go with an outside hire with a big name that could attract a solid staff? I know we kept Moore because a)he’s a rising star and b) we wanted continuity. But now we have seen so many departures. I wonder if that continuity still exists.

Second question, does this staff have the good to recruit and also be prepared to coach against the likes of Texas, Oregon and also Washington and OSU on the road?

next year could be a big step back…

So we basically have to…

So we basically have to force guys to stay on. Championship team, huh? Sounds great.

Sold out to get the…

Sold out to get the championship and absolutely not been able to do anything to capitalize on the success. Nearly every bit of movement from staff and recruits has not been in our favor. Who’s got it bett… never mind…

Who cares?

Who cares?

More adults leaving…

🤦🏻‍♂️

No thanks..

No thanks..

No, that’s not how our…

No, that’s not how our collective works… Our NIL collective goes for current players, not recruits. And Warde said explicitly that nothing’s changing…

Yeah at one point he was 100…

Yeah at one point he was 100% crystal balled to us. But yeah hiring all of these low level guys are going to kill recruiting. I got negged like crazy yesterday having the audacity to suggest that the adults have left. But watching what is happening on the BB court gives me pause to say, we might need to bring in a few guys that have some chops in the area of recruiting and credibility out on the trail. 

I do agree with you on that…

I do agree with you on that point. It seems that this might be the trend going forward until some things are fixed. I can’t imagine big-time coaches want to continue in the current atmosphere of college football.

Sorry if you disagree. But I…

Sorry if you disagree. But I do Believe that they played a big part in the success of this team. I think Jay has been here the whole nine years that Jim was here. So yeah, I guess he’d be considered an adult. Jesse got a lot of interest from NFL teams. 

On the contrary, Jesse…

On the contrary, Jesse worked for the Ravens and then was the DC at Vandy. He had experience. But once again to my point, there were those around him that could help settle things. I’m all for naming Clinkscale, the DC. I think Griese has proven valuable. Let me ask you this question Salvatore: is being elevated from QB coach in college to OC better or worse than an NFL QB coach being elevated to OC in college? Plus he has ties to the program. 

You got nothing to add but…

You got nothing to add but that? lol…

I’m sure you are super…

I’m sure you are super stoked about these hires. I’m sorry if I’m not. Especially after just winning a national title. Feels like we are scraping the bottom of the barrel. I’m sure the guys are awesome. However, You do need some credibility when out on the recruiting trail. The thing that a lot of these guys that succeeded had going for them, was a head coach with a ton of experience. Also, Jim was exceptional in teaching and coaching. He had a vast array of experience to pull from. Not seeing a guy on this staff That could be considered a sage to help calm the ship in rough waters. I know, I know you are going to say that Sherrone took the team during the tough and brutal schedule the last three games. But Jim was always there. Jay was there. Jesse was there. Why not wait until one more week and interview Brian Greise for the OC position? Look what he’s done with Purdy. 

Looks like all of the adults…

Looks like all of the adults have left and went to the NFL…

Nothing to do with the hire…

Nothing to do with the hire. Just the name 🤦🏻‍♂️ I’ll see myself out….

I’m sorry but am I the only…

I’m sorry but am I the only one that thought of Jim Tomsula?? Waiting for the fart in the middle of the press conference?

https://youtu.be/xrZZFgF5Th0?si=ntkp2HPeytmtJ0QG 

Well, he wasn’t employed…

Well, he wasn’t employed anywhere else so I figured that would be assumed by the word “promoted”… But hey, I'm sorry for the confusion my friend. 😊

Missing the point… The Big…

Missing the point… The Big 10 is so much tougher than the PAC 10 was, plus Andrew Luck. 6 solid teams at the top, 4 which we play this year…
