My name is James. It looks like they are trying to pull the "THE Ohio State University" thing on my given name.  I will have to see if it is now trademarked and I will need to change.  I may pull a Chad Ocho Cinco and change it to Tres Cero a Dos Quatro Gilipollas.

I’m nervous about Moore as a 1st time head coach being given the keys to the program.  I would be hesitant to give him too much term if they redo his deal. Though in todays day and age, I guess you can buyout anyone.

That’s 5m+ for a guy who scored 17 goals and doesn’t bring much more. I get he’s a UofM guy and all, but i don’t love it. He’s not a 2nd line guy unless you are wearing blue-tinted glasses…hope he kills it though

I’m actually pretty shocked by the level of dismissive comments here. I understand there doesn’t need to be a public shaming or anything, but dismissing it as he is 19 or some BS about his race meaning he can’t appreciate what he is saying seems way off base. If this was a white kid retweeting racist crap would we be saying the same thing. I hope not. I tend to agree with some sentiment that this may be go blue/top 15 player player influenced take.  I wonder if he would get more flak if he was an MSU player?  Everyone gets their own opinion but I’m on the same page as an earlier poster- I’m going to have an awkward time rooting for him as an individual vs for his contribution to a team win

I love the announcers “that is the most amazing drive I have ever seen”. Let’s just ease off the gas a little bit - week 1 game against the Purdue secondary. 

Would love to know the… Would love to know the scoring breakdown here. How many TD’s, field goals, safeties, 2 pt conversions?

I would do a deep-dive into the bylaws to see if there was indeed a rule making it illegal to flag an opposing player for holding a Michigan DE. If I couldn’t find one, I would gently suggest to the officials that they were actually allowed to make such calls.

For the record, they had interviewed 2 black candidates before meeting with the white guy. Flores was the third. 
 

Don’t shoot the messenger - I’m not saying African American hiring is not an issue. I just think it’s noteworthy that a lot of the reporting and framing of this situation totally disregards the fact they had followed the Rooney rule even before Flores’s interview.

This conversation with my wife tells the story

wife: how did the game go?

me: we won, but looked like crap. Rutgers crowded the box with tons of guys and we kept running straight up the middle over and over again

wife:  isn’t that what what we kept doing wrong the last 2 years?  Why doesn’t the coach stop doing that?

The biggest thing that bugs me about this poll is Clemson. If any other team had been shut out offensively by Georgia and barely gotten by a GT team that lost to NIU, where do you think they would be ranked?

Also - Notre Dame.

Guys - I’ve been on board and see all the posts about tampering. Where does this come from - what evidence/pseudo evidence is out there that indicates Texas did anything at all. Thanks for any help here.

Very good point.  My family has a house up in Caseville (hey, its up north enough for me) and the neighbor does Air BnB every weekend now, which means its a bunch of 25-30 year olds looking to get drunk at the fire pit every weekend.

That's some quick twitch from W right there - might be a new corner.  Get Bakula at QB and Sinbad on the D-Line and we might get this season turned around.

They have Luigi's mansion 3 for Switch on super discount at Walmart down from $60 to $30 for black Friday.  Absolute steal - also great for co-op play - one of you is Luigi and hte other is a blobuos ghost named Gooigi and can work together to solve puzzles.

Black Friday deal everywhere…

Black Friday deal everywhere for Switch is New System (last year) with exapnded battery + Mariot Kart + free period of Nintendo online subscription.  I don't think you'll have to refresh constantly to try to get one.

I’m not too sure about quality over time, but what really surprises me is one that is awful by everyone’s account - I mean everyone in the room gives a collective WTF? - and yet it made it through 10 layers of production and people signing huge checks. I am left wondering if it was just tons of yes-men agreeing to some exec’s idea.

Dive a little deeper into some of the "high level" violations.  One of the Detroit stadiums was busted for using refrigerated raisins that were 10 days outdated.

Totally disagree.  I think he's entirely accurate.  There would be 2-3 teams capable of winning a national championship in a given year and most didn't play each other in the bowl season.  The rest of the bowls meant nothing more than they do now.  That would mean a tops of 3 bowl games that went towards determining a champion (or not when the ballot got split when two top teams didn't play).  We now have 3 games that determine a clear cut champion.  I wanted U of M to win the Citrus Bowl against arkansas in 1999 just as much as the one against Florida (citrus right?) a few years ago.  Still a game against a quality opponent that allows your team one last go for the season that has no bearing on the national picture.

Got to respectfully disagree with this one.  A wife comforts when you come home fired.  She is much more likely to be paraded at a press conference in support of her exonerated husband acting slightly humbled than to be dragged into walking out the door in embarrassment.

Yeah - wife there = no punishment.  It doesn't even bug me that he's OSU's coach - it just pisses me off when an asshole doesn't get his comeuppance.

One issue I have is with the…

One issue I have is with the dismissing of claims of an unfair all-start team of transfers as racist. Look at the figures - the team is 90-member as a no-cut sport.  In 2016 they had 23 transfers.  You would assume kids you were taking as transfers would be of pretty good quality (but hey, maybe that is wrong).  That's an entire starting line-up of desirable transfers built upon an existing base.  I think it's reasonable to have issue with that.

These kids seem to face horrible issues and LOTS of racism everyday - I just don't like a puff job that totally dismisses a reasonable argument.
