We deserve to feel good about this one. Celebrate today, get ready to make some more sacrifices this week on the practice field. Don't get too high, don't get too low. On to Nebraska. Do your job.
"Shane came off the field after the following play and was reassessed by the head athletic trainer for the ankle injury," Brandon said. "Since the athletic trainer had not seen the hit to the chin and was not aware that a neurological evaluation was necessary, he cleared Shane for one additional play."
Tell me again how that falls squarely on Brady?
The information is out there, read up before you attack one of our family members. The guy had droves of former players step-up and sign-off on him because of how much on an impact he had on their lives when he helped us win a National Title, but you weren't a fan so I guess that doesn't mean anything to you?
"Absolutely, this is very disappointing," Jordan Kovacs, who played two seasons under Hoke (2011-2012), said in a telephone interview. "It's tough. Just reflecting on Coach Hoke, he's without a doubt the best guy I've run into in the football world. He's just the nicest guy, all about the team and passionate about Michigan football. Loved him to death for how he treated everyone fairly.
"I have the greatest memories of him. He did things the right way at Michigan — that's what he should be remembered for. Some programs are win at all costs, but that's not how he did things. I respect the hell out of him for that."
I guess you know more than the men who played under him...
I've never agreed with the hostility, and lack of love & respect, he continually receives from a portion of our fan base.
He is a Michigan man, he couldn't have been more proud of being our coach, wearing the block M. Granted he fell short of our demands, but in truth even coach Harbaugh hasn't achieved yet what we've asked for.
Brady ran a clean program, he took care of our kids, took great pride in the opportunity and he really gave it his all. Sure he may have been in over his head, but I think that's more on Dave Brandon and us (Hokemania) for putting him in that position. It's no small task, that's what made Bo so special.
Truth be told he wasn't what we were looking for, he was just a place filler. Yet, in that place filler was a man of character, honor and integrity. Give this man the love he deserves, he's always been ready to fight for the Maize n Blue without hesitation.
It's not surprising at all, just another huge disappointment from the same hype factory that crowned Sam McGuffie before he played a down.
Every time DM came in, we ran him. Last I checked, he ain't Denard. That was always a giant red flag for me. If this guy is so good, why doesn't he play? When he does play, why doesn't he throw the ball?
It's not like I'm sitting over here grinding my teeth about it.
Why is it weird that my family fought in the Civil War? My great uncle, Bradley Sellers, was captured in the Battle of the Wilderness and died in Andersonville, GA.
What irritates me is that many of us are continuing to make these sacrifices and we're getting labeled as racist. Now it's being thrown in my face every direction I go and that extreme attitude has pushed me away.
People who don't wear masks are bigger idiots than kneelers, but both are idiots. Neither are the appropriate response.
You can't justify bad behavior by pointing to other bad behavior.
I understand where the kneeling comes from and the message it's supposed to communicate, but disrespecting the sacrifice made by Northern soldiers who died in the Civil War fighting for your freedom probably isn't the best plan of attack to garner my support as I've got family who died for that very reason. I'm thinking of the 1 million forms of communication we have available, why did they think this was the approach that would bring both sides together? It's divisive and it's one of the reasons progress has taken a big step backwards.
Same goes for the non mask wearers. They are not only putting lives at risk, but they are destroying progress. Progress from months of social distancing gone, out the window because they can't get on board with what the experts are advising us to do. Know nothing know-it-alls, just like their puppet master in Washington.
TBH both groups (Pubs & Dems) have lost me and so have sports now. Sports are just too much stress for something that is supposed to be for our enjoyment.
So if people want to use heroin should we legalize it for them? Just sign this waiver, you'll be fine, you won't regret this decision when you're thinking more clearly down the line.
You should go for a walk, I can see this has really taken it's toll on you.
How dare the B1G err on the side of caution when it comes to something so important, so crucial, so necessary as amateur sports. Human life is just not that important to you, I get it. According to you, we need to get these kids out there for our enjoyment IMMEDIATELY!!!
Cost vs Benefit
Tell me one benefit to playing that is greater than the safety of our kids? (don't tell me it's safe now, because we aren't even close to fully understanding the short & long-term effects of this virus; could take 5 years+)
Where wouldn't Giannis be the perfect fit lol? I really can't see any team passing on a 25 year old Hall of Famer in his prime. Probably a lock for top 50 all-time.
I agree if we were playing NBA 2k it would be perfect in Houston, that's a scary combo, but in real life Harden and Giannis don't respect each other. Giannis didn't even want to play with Harden in the All-Star game, let alone for 82+ games.
Great question!!! The answer is because it's a business and if the machine can keep the illusion that it will be up and running "soon" then "they" will be able to make more money!!! eg. Merchandise sales, podcasts, news stories, blogs, etc, etc
We aren't the SEC, we are Leaders and Best. We actually care about our kids, that's why we make them attend class and we follow their careers long, long after they've donned the Maize & Blue. #safetyfirst
Let me guess, Sam McGuffie has a younger brother who has this incredible tape of him doing flips on the basketball court AND Rich Rod's brother in law has this new offense that's going to CHANGE THE GAME?!?!?
I'll be holding my breath waiting patiently for this HUGE DAY!!!
I respect Chris Spielman as a man, but omg I went from loving him to hating him in a matter of a few years because all I heard was a Buckeye criticize, criticize, criticize our program.
Do we have a higher salary cap If we go to the SEC? Do our kids even have to attend class??? If the SEC makes our kids attend class, I say we go saddle up with UNC and the ACC!!! /s
Thanks for posting, I work and just don't have the time to keep my finger on the pulse like I use to.
James is so quirky, he cracks me up. I think people just don't realize how high level tOSU is right now. Makes it easy for the critics to take shots at James. We are who we are, not sure why anyone expects us to be more when we haven't won an outright B1G title since 1997. Don't put the cart before the horse babies!!!
Hey you were first. I mean it wasn’t the worst post ever, we did get a team in there. What’s important is you were first and you got the fake imaginary points. 1 step closer for you to world domination!!!!
The sky is falling again? hahaha Some of my brothers and sisters need to take a step back from this thing and enjoy it for what it's worth. If it happens it happens, we have a lot to be proud of either way. Go Blue!!!
B1G gets no respect. I looked at those match-ups and think we've got the toughest ask in facing Bama, maybe MSU because they flat out suck, but that said, all of the teams in our conference are capable of winning their match-up and I hope they do.
I'm rooting for a great game of football. I take pride in our conference, and always have the attitude that it's all up to us. All we have to do is handle our business, no need to hate the competition. If we do the things we need to do, then nothing else should matter. Go Blue!!!!

Avoid the Bru's Room, that's a Buckeye bar. Or better yet, go in there and remind them why you're down there!!! Go Blue!!!

College Football is big business. Money > integrity & honor

Good to see Coach Hoke has slimmed down.

I heard the Packers are positioning themselves to take him.

When I turn sports on, it's to escape. Sports are so highly politicized that it's no longer an escape. I no longer watch sports.
1 action puts lives at risk, 1 doesn't. Does that help?

That's very naive. There is so much they don't even know still about this virus and somehow you know?

A source close to the program...lol
Like the 20,000+ self proclaimed "close to the program" people on the internet?
Thank you FOX, where would journalism be today without the clutch phrase, "Some people say"
We aren't the SEC, we are Leaders and Best. We actually care about our kids, that's why we make them attend class and we follow their careers long, long after they've donned the Maize & Blue. #safetyfirst
If it get's people talking than it's a positive
Sadly, politics is the biggest sport around right now. It's impossible to escape from politics no matter which channel you stop on.
The beauty of James Bond is his wit, not his license to kill.
Great story, I couldn't care any less what 11 idiots think the reason why our program is taking the route of safety first.
That said, yeah, I'm sure they are favored this year if we play, but so were they in '69 when we kicked their asses.
Let me guess, Sam McGuffie has a younger brother who has this incredible tape of him doing flips on the basketball court AND Rich Rod's brother in law has this new offense that's going to CHANGE THE GAME?!?!?

Oh he's widely regarded as an axe murderer around my house!!!!
Kermit Washington, after what he did to our boy Rudy T
Hey you were first. I mean it wasn’t the worst post ever, we did get a team in there. What’s important is you were first and you got the fake imaginary points. 1 step closer for you to world domination!!!!
The sky is falling again? hahaha Some of my brothers and sisters need to take a step back from this thing and enjoy it for what it's worth. If it happens it happens, we have a lot to be proud of either way. Go Blue!!!
You'll be missed brother. Say hi to Bo for us, GO BLUE!!!!
If it generates more revenue to further upgrade our facilities and keep elite athletes coming here, I'm all for it.
Some things are better left unsaid.
Run & throw it where they ain't!!!!
B1G gets no respect. I looked at those match-ups and think we've got the toughest ask in facing Bama, maybe MSU because they flat out suck, but that said, all of the teams in our conference are capable of winning their match-up and I hope they do.
Happy trails Delaney you scumbag!!!
The only time being #1 matters is when the season is over.
This is the only gold they need. Everyone should get a copy of this bad boy when they sign.
This is hilarious!!! It's OSU week, toughen up before your weakness starts spilling over and infecting others.
This makes my blood boil.
He looks tired, like a man who knows the walls are closing in around him.

We have officially hit rock bottom.
It means we're fucked
