Prez Ono was at UC all 4 years I attended and I shook his hand at graduation. 
 

Guy is a class act and very down to earth. UM got a good one. 

Ultimately college football…

Ultimately college football has changed and we are few years away from the Big Ten not mattering simply because the Big Ten values school. Seeing us play UGA reminded me of seeing us play Bama in Dallas. The top of the SEC is a different level that most schools will never reach, and trying to reach it would take 4-5 years of work and some luck. 
 

If Harbaugh leaves I’ll still cheer for UM but my visits to MgoBlog had even severely decreased until the week of the Sparty game, and then went back down until the OSU game. Now I’m back because I think this place is the best place to see if JH is gone yet. 
 

Love the team, love the Big House, love Ann Arbor, love the Blog, but with no real connection to the school or state, I’ll probably be done.

I don’t know the freep very well as I don’t live up North with y’all but I can’t imagine this reporter did more than scratch the surface on the facts. What is their history on financial reporting?

also happy for myself, as a 31 year old, best sports year of my life.

First voyage of Jefferson Ocean was good.

I ran a bourbon bar inside a hotel in Louisville for 3 years…I have a few thoughts.

Most overhyped: you’re spot on with Peerless. I’d add Rabbit Hole and Angels Envy. All young juice with different marketing. Angels Envy does have great people working there. 
 

Underrated: Michters is great and generally reasonably priced, Old Forester 100, 86, and Rye are all great. I don’t think any of the Old Forester special releases are worth the hype. 
 

Overall I grew exhausted with Bourbon as everyone just chased the next trendy bottle. The beverage industry in general is based on selling a story, and Bourbon is a great story to tell in America.

Always loved his twitter handle Kogernotkroger.

Didn’t know he was coaching. Good for him.

Nothing shady about Mack. He’s a good coach, took the job in Louisville as a next step and because his wife grew up there.

That being said - I spent 3 years living in Louisville and would ever go back.

Thank you. I came home from work and found it on YouTube.

I was born in 1990 and the first game I ever remember watching and understand what was going on.

Some of our more senior friends might be able to help me pinpoint the actual game. It was against Northwestern and must have been in Evanston because I remember it was dark out during the 3 OT’s. I remember when A-Train fumbled and it pretty much cost us the game. I would have to guess this was around 1998 or 1999. 
 

Either way my brother is 10 years older than me and he already loved M Football, we watched it together and I was hooked.

Listening to Ryen Russilo…

Listening to Ryen Russilo podcast last week I found out his nick name is “Only Franz” - I don’t follow basketball that closely, did someone in Ann Arbor come up with this or is this from Orlando?

Ever since we beat OSU…

Ever since we beat OSU everyone neg bangs anything that reflects on how bad UM was, it makes no sense to me. Remember that time we had to score 70 to beat Illinois? 
 

I’m about to crack a beer.

My personal mantra this…

My personal mantra this season has been enter each game with 0 expectations. I intend to do the same. 
 

Side note: has anyone noticed the amount of downvotes anyone receives that isn’t 100% confident, or offers a differing opinion? I love the optimism, but I hope we don’t turn into the echo chambers or deniers of intelligence.

So many great restaurants in that area, will definitely check it out next time we go for dinner over there. I’m currently living in Plantation but our Canadian friends have a vacation home in Lauderdale, they haven’t been able to visit for obvious reasons so we pop over to check in on it.

Appreciate the recommendation.

First Christmas in South Florida…drinking beer  in Lauderdale by The Sea today and then will be searing a Brush Creek Ranch Tomahawk steak later this evening for the family.

It’s going to suck. I pass it every day on my way to work and the F1 track construction is taking up a lot of space.

I’d suggest parking at the Hard Rock and getting an Uber.

Hey HillBilly,

I clarified Dick Rod & Hoke era.

Sugar Shane, NORFLEET, and Terry Richardson

Might have been more…

Might have been more forgiving if I specified a timeline…Rich Rod & Hoke staffs took a lot of 4 star guys from the state of Michigan that did not contribute meaningful football. Maybe I’m jaded because two of them were QB’s that were supposed to be great…but I never though Terry Richardson was ever going to be good.

All these posts say my take…

All these posts say my take sucks and you named two players…I just looked through all of our classes since 2010 on scout and stand by my statement. Too many highly rated kids from Michigan and don’t do much. 

Feels like the only Michigan…

Feels like the only Michigan HS kids that end up being great don’t play for UM.

Did they add any of the B1G Refs?

Agreed. 

Agreed. 

Not sure if to file this…

Not sure if to file this under “cool story bro” or “spam” but I will share anyway.

My father-in-law lives in Ontario and is a NASCAR fan, they don’t get much coverage up there. His coworker created an app that runs on an Amazon Firestick and the app has basically every channel in North America, as well as a huge catalog of movies. 
 

I thought it was too good to be true but I bought a firestick and mailed it to him, he charges $200 annually, and it has been a total game changer. I had to upgrade my internet but I got to cancel my cable.

if anyone is interested in one, I’d be happy to set it up.

Yeah i medically retired…

What an experience

Great property. Go out for dinner at El Camino on Las Olas. 

What are everyone’s thoughts…

What are everyone’s thoughts on the perception of the big 12 after UT & OU leave? At this point I feel like it’s on pace to pick up where Big East Football left off.

No logic in that statement, why would the Athletic let him write that?

Didn’t the players at USC want Orgeron ?

Also - there seems to be…

Also - there seems to be such a global “Alabama is going to lose to Georgia” that bama is probably going to be up 45-0 at half.

I’m cheering for chalk.

I went to Cincy, but have been a Michigan fan since I was 8 (because of my older brother).

I currently live in South Florida and am cheering for Cincy vs UM at the Orange Bowl.

So satisfying.

I read this and thought to myself “no way he will be there in 2023” and then remembered it’s about to be 2022. Time is going by too fast.

Are y’all freshman? 4 years ago no one would be posting right now. They’ve been upgraded.

I’ve heard that called “buying happiness” because either way you have something to be happy about but obviously better to do with money line.

OSU also hasn’t had a bad QB in my entire life

As I’ve gotten older I’ve…

As I’ve gotten older I’ve fully lost any true feeling towards any team in any sport except UM football. Even as a UC alum, I don’t actually care if they win or lose this year. 
 

I hope that our staff has a couple pages of the playbook that they have been saving for this week. Stuff that the team has spent the last 20 minutes of practicing working on all year, getting ready to execute on the first series of The Game. 
 

I really hope for the seniors on this team they get a chance to make this a memorable year. 
 

i think this game is a shoot out. 42-39 - good guys win.

Hope he’s using the rental version of Zillow

The difference is that you…

The difference is that you’re referencing a sales job such as maybe selling services for Cintas. We are talking about coaching a power 5 football team. The pool of high quality people to sell services for Cintas is much deeper than the pool of high quality people to coach Michigan Football. 

I hope for the sake of UC’s…

I hope for the sake of UC’s program the committee leaves them at #5 and they go beat a good team in a big bowl game. Best case scenario in my opinion.
