Here’s a good YouTube video…

Here’s a good YouTube video for those of you unaware of the Barkley and want to see what insanity these athletes go through. 
 

There used to be a free documentary too about the history of the Barkley on Prime but it’s only available to buy now. It’s amazing to see the difference of people that competed back in the first few years compared to now. 

It’s a good thing this doesn…

IT’S HERE!!!!

Thanks Seth and Brian. Great work that isn’t appreciated enough.

Watch-along from the Brown Jug where everyone gets a hamburger with price of admission. 
 

More people at the Brown Jug or the Big House? What a way to raise money and stick it to the NCAA at the same time.

Chills for that last line, Brian. Couldn’t have said it better, and I for one, am excited to go along for the ride. 

Awkward.... I believe Brian…

Gonna be honest... had to google his name to see why I should be excited. Sad that I don't know the roster like I did only 2 years ago...

It’s amazing to me that recruits/players don’t listen to our coaching staff with their history of putting guys in the NFL that are playing “out of position”.

Really hoping to see a log jam at 8 under. Seems like Rahm is going to hang on at 10 the way he is hitting the ball. 

GTFOH, he can’t be serious.

Is today the day that "JD comin'" actually happens?!

After all the fake news on…

After all the fake news on twitter (Hunter, Edey) I am hesitant to believe this. 

If true, love it for guard depth. Need to have options to keep the team running smoothly. 

Edit* No I don't know who Tipton Edits is, my dude, but Seth says it's true so I believe. Problem is he implies that Kobe is going to get the push to go pro, so seems like a net loss overall.

When we start to use phrases…

When we start to use phrases like "risking their lives", we are implying that there isn't a choice for these players. I'm not saying the choices are easy, fair, or the same for everyone, but lets not start acting like there isn't a choice being made and the consequences about these choices are more known now and understood by everyone that plays football. 

I did try to say in my…

I did try to say in my original statement that I didn't think that a scholarship covered it all.

I also don't think that people that aren't allowed to be helped when something happens that is outside their control (painful disease, natural disaster, etc.). 

But accepting a scholarship to play a game that also gets you into a school for free, and possibly a school you wouldn't have been able to get into without football, and then saying people need to give me money on top of that... it just feels weird to me. 

The whole “giving” someone…

The whole “giving” someone money has always never sat well with me as they are still earning a scholarship by being on the team. I am not saying that the scholarship is enough, but when we use words like “giving”, it just feels weird. 

The players earning money by working for a company in some way always felt like the right way to go with NIL, even though I know that it will be abused too.

Have you ever watched a Michigan Football season? Or any college team? There is no way every win besides those two are double digit wins.

Kill Tony on YouTube. Great stand up comedy and you get to see different styles as they do 1 min sets and then allow Toby, Redban, and guest comedians roast them and give them advice. 

Definitely TV-MA though and not to be watched around children or people that are not aware of what jokes are told at a comedy club.

So what you are saying is……

So what you are saying is… no one knew 

I don't believe anything he…

I don't believe anything he is saying in terms of it stopping his recruiting a player. Check the team recruiting rankings, see how many 5* and 4* players Alabama has gotten, and tell me he or his team isn't paying those players what they are asking for. Saban is doing this to appease someone, but hasn't stopped him for a minute from doing what he needs to do to get the top guys. 

Thought it was interesting…

Thought it was interesting that Jaden Rashada signed with ASU, which was the university his father attended, after the whole mess with Florida and Miami (YTM). 

The more interesting thing will be if there was a signed contract and if it can be held against either Rashada or Florida, depending if anyone is in breach.

So terrible Twitter link by me, but not wrong about the subject. 

I’ll take my negs here too. 

I tend to agree that he will…

I tend to agree that he will be a WR as well, but two questions

1) Why the caps?

2) Is anyone else that is in the recruiting world saying this as well, and if that is the case, where are they ranking him as a WR? Can he really not catch well, or this all speculation as well?

Is this your opinion or does…

Is this your opinion or does anyone that does recruiting say this too? This isn't a knock to you, and I totally get Olympic Fast TE don't grow on trees, but I tend to think he isn't a 5* if that is the position he is going for.

Not even a knock on the kid, but this might be more star gazing then actual production on the field.

Honest Question.... I know…

Honest Question.... I know he is a 5*, but I thought that was always with the assumption that he would be playing DE or somewhere on the defensive side of the ball. 

What would he be ranked with the idea that he is a TE? Is he still a 5* type or much further down, as that isn't where he was projected to reach his maximum potential?

Well seeing the next post…

Well seeing the next post says exactly what 4godkingandwol said, I think the turning down of the snark is justified.

3. MSU (rivalry)

4. Maryland (trap game before OSU, and away, and they always have an offense that when going can cause REAL problems)

5. ...... *whispers* Rutgers? (I don't have a feel for any of the other teams and it feels like they always play us tough... except for that one year)

Warde must be living by the motto “All publicity is good publicity”? 

This is exactly right…

This is exactly right. Donovan shouldn't even want to play RB as much as Blake and get "even snaps" when Blake is at RB and Donovan is at a slot WR. He'll get more money in the NFL if he can get his designation as a true "athlete" that can do more for the team, thinking Deebo Samuel like. 

I'm not saying no snaps at RB, but I would say half of what Blake gets and the other half at WR.

Would you do him and 4 virgins though?

Outrage all the time doesn’t…

Outrage all the time doesn’t work, but you have to have a time when you go ape shit for something that really matters and people will remember that. Can’t be afraid of something if you know they won’t ever really fight back. 

Who the fuck cares anymore…

Who the fuck cares anymore about the NCAA and their dumbass rules. They lost all credibility when they did nothing to Kansas and Arizona when the FBI was involved. 

If Harbaugh gets burned on this in any way, watch the NCAA collapse when other schools finally wake up to say "If they did this to Michigan, who actually attempts to play by the rules in a general way, why the fuck are we following the NCAA at all?" 

I really do see this as being the final straw that the NCAA goes away for. 

I don't blame Harbaugh at…

I don't blame Harbaugh at all if he goes. My guess is he told Warde to tell them to fuck off or he's gone and Warde said he would, but couldn't guarantee anything, hence the vague language about planning on being Michigan's coach next year. 

With all this low level bullshit that has come out, I wouldn't blame Harbaugh for leaving to not have to deal with this bullshit while there are so many more obvious infractions that the NCAA doesn't even touch. 

Sorry, had to get that off my chest. Love Harbaugh for everything he has done here. 

Wasn’t he actually un ranked…

Wasn’t he actually un ranked when recruited and then bumped to a 3* because he committed to Michigan? 

I don't know if the US team…

I don't know if the US team can move away from Reyna though... and this seems like a pretty isolated incident too. I understand what Berhalter was trying to do to create a team, but for international squads you have to play your best players. There just isn't enough time to build a real team like there are at the club levels. 

The really weird thing about…

The really weird thing about this is Berhalter doesn't even have a contract with the USMNT, so it's odd that USMNT is even speaking out on this for someone who doesn't work for them. 

This was the Reyna's trying to get ahead of Berhalter getting another contract and wanting to put their son in the best position.

My personal opinion (having nothing to do with what is going on now) is that the USMNT needs to move away from Berhalter anyways and get a coach that has done this before to put their stamp on the team moving into the World Cup coming here in 4 years. Berhalter did great in getting guys that had multiple options on where to play to come here and play, but I just don't think he has the abilities to maximize their talents like another coach could that has more experience.
