The propagandist trashes all things not SEC. This story is designed to convince blue chip players to not choose OSU (Big10). The NIL money may or may not be more at OSU, but I suspect that Alabama, Georgia, LSU and others are close behind. Don't give the unscrupulous talking-head any clicks. I regret giving him one.
I thought I read in a Woody biography that he ate with the black players in the kitchen since they weren't allowed in the dining room. Yes, I read a Hayes biography, a Bo biography, and a Bear biography and numerous other biographies.
I don't think it is appropriate to judge a lifetime of intense competition on one's banehavior after having a stroke.
Did you see the John Harbaugh quote about Jim? "He loved some of the people there. Probably." "Never" isn't appropriate in this case. JH indicated frequently that he would stay at MIchigan until he retires but it was always understood that that was only on his terms. Jim loves to operate a certain way, so he rubs some people the wrong way. And yes, the chase of a Super Bowl ring was always on Jim's list but it isn't the only thing on the list.
The Kenneth Walker year was clearly an anomaly. Everything this man touches is garbage except for one transfer. I actually feel bad for anyone that thought this guy was the real deal.
^^^^ Exactly. The intent to deceive and the basketball penalty are legendary events. I also like the time the reporter asked Harbaugh about challenging the ref when the game was nearly over and already decided. Then Harbaugh asked if the rules went away at that point, and should the backups get a chance to play by the rules?
I am pretty sure some players actually died in 2017 because Michigan knew the play call in from the start in 2022. Horrible deeds. I may never recover.
Some players have 5th round talent but the stack of available players and team needs left them out of the draft. Those players may have several offers from which to pick. I suspect most have only one offer (maybe some local connection with a coach.) I believe most players get immediate offers (or were told prior to the draft) as they were on the teams draft board but other choices of greater need were available.
Not me. Did anyone else? I know the Pats had a decent QB room but I always thought TB was an NFL QB. TB's check downs were solid. He was getting a yard when Drew Henson was giving up 7 yard sacks.
I am delighted (as is everyone) with how Mike has played. I do remember when some of were concerned that the move to defense indicated a lack of talent on the part of Mike or the lack of depth in the defense and we were very very concerned about the future. No really, can you believe it?
Ed Martin ran numbers and evaded paying income taxes. He laundered money by giving it to the parents of basketball players heading to Illinois, Missouri, and Michigan with the idea that they would someday return a favor if necessary. Webber almost went to prison because he doesn’t know how to answer questions and became a hostile witness. I have seen a number of Webber interviews and he appears lost on anything other than basketball.
Rocks for jocks and the ever popular Greek and Roman Sports from the U of M playbook back in the 70's. (Oh, and Behavior Modification which was elminated before I could take it.)
Not exactly, as I understand it. Harbaugh is adamant that he didn't lie to the NCAA. He answered their questions to the best of his recollection. The NCAA wants to hold him to the standard that since he answered in an official capacity that his answers are official and if they were incorrect then he hindered or lied to them. A ridiculous standard that Harbaugh refuses to accept.
You seem to be missing the part where North Carolina and LSU got off free and clear for significant violations and Kentucky, Alabama, and others got off with no penalty other than probation with no show causes anywhere. Michigan, on the other hand, is putting player safety at risk while doing something that is legal per the letter of the law or at most a violation of a "COST SAVING RULE". Sorry, others are standing up the NCAA and Michigan should too. Obviously, the Michigan staff is doing something wrong. I really do not care to accept the easy way out that may or may not maximize revenue.
Multiple coaches doing multiple unrelated things including a Zoom call at the wrong time and working with a high school kicker who wasn’t good enough for a Michigan scholarship.
As I understand it, Michigan admitted all of it. Harbaugh refused to admit he intentionally mislead anyone. It got to be a grudge match with Harbaugh. The NCAA position is that "I don't recall" isn't good enough. Jim says, I don't recall so take the evidence you have and do what you have to do.
Stalions is incompetent. I find it hard to believe that anything he did was of any value and if it were of value then everyone would know it and be involved. His methods were not approved and went unnoticed. Primarily because they were a failure. It was possibly a violation of a cost saving rule.
How smart is Michigan compared to LSU, North Carolina, Alabama, Tennessee and all the others that broke the same rules and got probation or less (no suspensions, no show cause.)
Remember the deafening silence from Warde after Jim and Wolverines got hosed at OSU? Warde's coach was penalized during a football game for a basketball violation and Warde says nothing.
So, all those statements about being wanted were all a smokescreen? If your supervisor didn't support you, like ever, would you not explore other employment options?
All the people who wanted Harbaugh fired spoke out. 9, 10, 20 million fans that wanted him at MIchigan didn't waste their breath. At one time, I was ok if they let Jim go but I never wanted him fired. One bad year doesn't get a winning coach fired.
Mike Post arranged "Classical Gas" for Mason Williams. Rockford Files as the same feel to me. Hit #10 on the charts. Possibly best TV theme song ever just above, F Troop, Andy Griffith Show, Gary Shandling Show (here's the part where we whistle", FLINTSTONES, Addams Family.
Years ago, we had a local guitar player would entertain the bar for the entire evening just playing TV theme songs.
Good grief. OSU was decimated before the Missouri game. The results go in the books, but it was not representative of anything.
Regarding Michigan v OSU, what if OSU starts the game with a number of first downs and a punt instead of something amounting to a pick six? I do believe Michigan was the better team but they were fortunate to be able to play it safe all game.
We had fun with that one back in the day. Some of my friends were groaning about their team having to face him in the regular season before they figured it out.
Denny wrote a few articles for a Detroit magazine while spending time in prison. He wrote an a amazing article on prisoners playing softball and for a few minutes, they did not know they were in prison. An excellent slice of life.
How can you leave Grayson Allen on the floor after he sucker punches someone and still be thought to be a good guy? NCAA championship over MSU and Wisconsin where the referees refused to call a foul against Duke. Players showing up on the roster with no known reason to be at Duke for style of play and for some reason decide to play for Duke?
Beilein is special and head and shoulders over the rest. Who else can pull off, "we had subs."
I like Knight more than most people. While some actions are inexcusable, I think most of us would have liked to have thrown a few chairs at one time or another.

without checking exact quote, "NCAA changes rules to address basketball violations. Expect Cleveland State to get hammered with sanctions." I find it hard to dislike someone that expresses this opinion openly.
John Wooden is also quotable. The other coaches on the dislike list don't seem to have worthwhile quote on file.
Nice postings overall but it should be easy to discount Warde's credit on the money flowing in as every Big 10 school is getting the same benefit. That benefit isn't due to Warde Manual.

**** Best team ever!!!
I will watch McCord's season with great interest. The idea that OSU will field a better QB this fall is a stretch for me.
I am a fan of both.

I am debating with myself if I should down vote this dad-like joke. Given your past history, I will wince, groan, chuckle, and move on.
Yes, that is Ara Parseghian. Mentor to Bo Schembechler at Northwestern.
Right there with the September Heisman. September and Heisman are two things we shouldn't worry about.

I gave my brother Washington and the spread of 17 points for the 1978 Rose Bowl.

Just those few that were terrible as opposed to those that were excellent.

The story was that their arrangement was for show and money.
Milton has been around a long time. I doubt there is any more talent to uncover.
Not me. Did anyone else? I know the Pats had a decent QB room but I always thought TB was an NFL QB. TB's check downs were solid. He was getting a yard when Drew Henson was giving up 7 yard sacks.

Spiral Staircase
really not that hard to see . . .
Tell that to the other 200 head coaches in the last 20 years that never won a championship at any level.
Ogden Nash reference. Well done.
As much as I love the DAWG, grit and determination on that drive I don't think it qualifies as NFL playbook material.
I suspect Stover will be fine however I have noticed that people that have had big games against Michigan have gone on to do well in the NFL.
I kind of like the Nick Saban look. His dye job looks like mine.
Ed Martin ran numbers and evaded paying income taxes. He laundered money by giving it to the parents of basketball players heading to Illinois, Missouri, and Michigan with the idea that they would someday return a favor if necessary.

Wishing you a speedy and complete recovery.
Cleveland State will get hammered by the NCAA. And also, any coaches over 67 that were fired will also be penalized.

"Win the Game." - - don't ever change that sign. I hope Saddi didn't take it with him.
Now they will have something to crow about. I suspect he will be paid something more than chickenfeed.
Did you see who was the QB for OSU? Pride has nothing to do with it.
Good grief. OSU was decimated before the Missouri game. The results go in the books, but it was not representative of anything.

First thing I imagined was 5-on-1 break drill but then I realized that they would have to engage the managers to get to 5.
