  1. Brooks went to play for that fat fuck Bielema at Illinois. Coaches weren’t looking at the film and thinking “I can coach that out of him.” At least Brooks understood that if he didn’t want to lose weight, he should stand next to someone fatter….and fuck whoever upthread has made me defend Terry Joseph.
  2. Hook’em, Nick!
  3. As someone who has followed Michigan’s recruiting more than most on this site, I’d add a couple of factors in their roster/recruiting success: 1. Churn - Feels like Michigan processes the bottom of its classes faster than most. Actual school standards and weather probably help in this regard. 2. Recruiting northern athletes - These guys tend to be under ranked other than the occasional athletic freak for 5 star distribution purposes. The depth of ready made talent isn’t as great as in the south, so competition is a constant knock, but based on population, they should have some undervalued athletes that can be coached up. I think this is part of what makes their development appear to be such an outlier. Also, the recruiting analysts themselves seem to suck up north (the ones actually ranking people). Guys like Gerry make trips to Florida to see guys, not New Jersey. The guys beating the bushes up north are EJ Holland.
  4. If he’s an early enrollee, we can probably grab him next summer after he gets moved to safety and doesn’t get paid what he was promised.
  5. Why? If you asked Jon Heyman to describe what he sees, you’d get a whole lot of words to say “my colon.”
  6. Was in grad school in Ann Arbor, and my wife and I went to watch the Stros when they were in town. We went crazy when it happened, and everyone looked at us like we were nuts. Gave exactly zero fucks.
  7. Passing on Derek Johnson for Travis Johnson still pisses me off.
  8. I hate you for making me do this….
  9. You say that until you need to find a bar open at 8:30 am on a Tuesday.
  10. Great, now we’ve got to remeasure….
  11. Agreed, but I think the emergence of Utah has probably lowered their ceiling a bit, at least until Whittingham retires. It offers a similar vibe (mountains, school, ball in the same conference) with a winner. I think they’ve probably siphoned off quite a few kids that would’ve found their way to Boulder…also, losing Prop 48 really hurt them, not to the levels of Nebraska, but it still had a decent impact. Ultimately, I think they’re going to have to “Louisiana” their NIL if they really want to turn this thing around because I don’t think playing it straight with their donor base will do it.
  12. Take it up the Pooper for Cooper has some promise.
  13. They did hire LSU’s offensive coordinator Denbrook, so there has been some action taken there. I’m sure they’ll play sloppy…and beat everyone on their schedule.
  14. Best team? Sure. Best season? Have you seen the hammered dogshit that is Notre Dame’s schedule? Depending on how FSU and USC look with new QBs, there’s a fair chance A&M is the best team they play…and it’s one of only three true road games (first and last with only one road game in between). https://fightingirish.com/sports/football/schedule/
  15. Just waiting on the feds to get involved….
  16. Hook’em, Kaliq!
