And a player or three.

And a player or three.

I like your theory.

I like your theory.

Zinter was always good right…

Zinter was always good right from the start as a true freshman.  He is going to be an anchor on the interior for many years.

Keegan in the 6th round…

Keegan in the 6th round seems like a big steal.  Barner should be higher also very ready to contribute right away.  

"He's loose again" - Gus…

"He's loose again" - Gus calling Donovan Edwards second TD in the Natty.

I'd like to see the BIG pick…

I'd like to see the BIG pick Duke if they are going to 24 teams.  Much like Northwestern academically and a private school.  

In that scenario, we could…

In that scenario, we could call him Jizzo and his pal Tugger.

The arena there is very…

The arena there is very small.  Not sure on why it was even considered?  NCAA do you even want to survive?

...And their (Louisville) in…

...And their (Louisville) in the ACC.  And certainly not at the top of the pecking order when the Big 3 conferences select ACC schools, very soon.

In the first Louisville link…

In the first Louisville link it takes 20 posts before someone mentions that their conference is imploding and that they don't have any idea what conference they are going to be in NEXT year.

FAU has a strong roster. …

FAU has a strong roster.  Dusty can recruit.  With the portal maybe the wait will be short.

He never stopped shooting.  

He never stopped shooting.  

So happy we get to keep some…

So happy we get to keep some of that chemistry from the last 3 years.  Some of these players have been waiting a long time for a chance to lead.  Giovanni El Hadi comes to mind.  He has been good enough to start ANYWHERE except where Zinter and Keegan played.

Did the right thing.

Did the right thing.

He was terrible in the Rose…

He was terrible in the Rose Bowl.  Kenneth Grant and Mason Graham gave him issues he couldn't manage.  How they were not 5 stars, based on how good they were from the start, is a mystery to me.  They both have long term NFL potential and are going to be so much fun to watch this year.

And 10 new players.

And 10 new players.

He certainly has been passed…

He certainly has been passed on the depth chart by Semaj Morgan.  Could open up a space for someone in the portal for depth.  Maybe they are already on the roster and will emerge this spring? 

Great.  Now we need 11 new…

Great.  Now we need 11 new players.  

Hopefully he picks a school…

Hopefully he picks a school that can help him with any path he wishes.  

They now have 3 players…

They now have 3 players total left from the last 3 classes.

Fred Hoiberg would be a safe…

Fred Hoiberg would be a safe pick.  Solid reputation and NBA and NCAA experience.  

He can, but will he?  Stay…

He can, but will he?  Stay tuned......

I don't know why he wouldn't…

I don't know why he wouldn't be considered.  I certainly would ask him what his plan for NIL is?

Hopefully there is some plan to manage this process for a coach, but Juwan was overwhelmed by this aspect, and seemed left on his own to manage the admissions tragedies.  This will be the central issue because developmental programs are now feeding grounds for the rich teams. 

Thanks.  That link worked…

Thanks.  That link worked great.  This will be an interesting story going forward.  Lot's of competition.

That was easy.  Now get this…

That was easy.  Now get this hire right.

 Good time of year to do…

 Good time of year to do that.  I cut mine all back last week while waiting for Juwan to be fired.

Given the Sanderson incident…

Given the Sanderson incident and the risk of litigation, I would make sure that I had a clear vision of the situation before letting the employee know.  This is a good time to keep the lawyers in the office in the loop.  This increases the probability of a firing considerably and just has the appearance of moving on.    

With the tournament starting, I wonder how that will impact the timing?

 

Sounds good to me.  Nobody…

Sounds good to me.  Nobody wants to hate Juwan he just seems to be in over his head.  He needs 10 new players.  After his 5th year.

Requiring academic progress…

Requiring academic progress seems a good idea also.  Keeping the student athlete aspect intact.

That would be a grease fire…

That would be a grease fire.  Also, can't watch the basketball team lose tomorrow because it's on Peacock.  Thanks Warde!

How can Denver even field a…

How can Denver even field a competitive team with 85M taken off?

Yes.  I feel like the…

Yes.  I feel like the Vikings would be a good fit and with the 11th pick at least 3 of the other QB's should be gone.

He is a really good…

He is a really good announcer and his show seems to flow very well also.  He has interesting things to say without being offensive.

Wow that's nice.  Now how…

Wow that's nice.  Now how about 10 other players and we should be competitive.  3 - 16 in conference play.  In the coach's 5th year.

Yes Keegan or Zinter in the…

Yes Keegan or Zinter in the third round seems wise.  

He was needed at center this…

He was needed at center this year and is always solid at guard.  

All for the same team.  Very…

All for the same team.  Very rare.

I agree.  He could always…

I agree.  He could always come back as AD.

They looked good in the…

They looked good in the second quarter.

I never call for a coach's…

I never call for a coach's firing.  But ......it's his fifth season.  With little in the pipeline.  No tournament for 2 straight years.  Is he going to re-invent himself as a major college coach?

He also has played on all of…

He also has played on all of the special teams units.  Getting his experience and leadership back would be a plus.  Team player.  National Champion!

Hope it's not a health issue…

Hope it's not a health issue.  He is certainly in good standing and has not been connected to openings that I know of.  

National championship coach that ran the very successful running attack would certainly be welcomed back when ready.  Plus he is the definition of a Michigan Man.

He's going to need that bulk…

Corum's going to need that bulk in the NFL also.  He will be a fine choice for someone.  A safe choice because of the high character attributes.  

Nice job.  I like Lions…

Nice job.  I like Lions taking Zinter in the third round and Trente for the practice squad.  Keegan at that point (3rd or 4th round) would be fine also.   Lions need OL quality depth after addressing CB and DL in the first two rounds (or free agency).

There are 6 OL from the National Champions and 2x Joe Moore winners.  They were a major strength of the team.  Getting 2 or 3 of them seems like a good idea.

There were some linemen that…

There were some linemen that washed out pretty quick during those years like Ben Braden and Mason Cole.  

Mike Desimione has a page on wolverines in the NFL: http://www.mikedesimone.com/michf.htm

 

 

He will be gone by the end…

He will be gone by the end of the 3rd round.

The D is going to be great.

That's a moment in life when you see that they can take care of themselves.

It does seem like Day is hiring his replacement.

I'm on another thread saying this is never going to happen.  Ignore that!
