I’m not interested in getting political, but your description of circumstances can get immediately fucked. Negged for attempting to absurdly minimize the assassination attempt on a presidential candid

UT has to have a hotter Asian alum who Ellison wants to bang. Just send him down to the PCL on a Saturday. 

The role of hot Asian alum was cast to an alum actor who is always looking to take on challenging roles to stretch their range.  
 

He will begin after some research and finishing up a Lincoln commercial.

Steering this somewhat back on track, I will say this: I'm glad it is Michigan getting the Ellison wave and not someone that is more directly competitive with Texas. Can't say I give a shit about Michigan either way and all that talent has to go somewhere, rather it be them than a conference opponent or in-state school. Also it's fun to see them abuse tOSU lol

I used to view Michigan as sort of a mirror to Texas in the north. No more. That cheating shit and them defending it and trying to gaslight everybody turned me off.

That said, they're fine to be doing what they're doing from our perspective, but I sure as hell wish they were attacking the OSU recruiting class rather than going with a gunshot approach. I am tired of Ohio State in every possible way. A shitty fanbase, a shitty state, a shitty coach, the sense of entitlement, their cheating, and their 120+ years of almost constant success being the big bad brand in the middle of the most boring part of this country.

I liked the part where they flipped Underwood from LSU

I’ll give you this: at least you’re consistent. This is a pretty poor take with regard to Moore. Look at the timeline of him getting the job and the transfer portal QBs and get back to me. It took not having a QB this season for Michigan to get onboard with NIL in recruiting. Previously, the only NIL they were giving out was to upperclassmen for the most part. It’s why their recruiting classes have been relatively lower ranked for the last several years. A developmental program that replaces its Top 6 offensive linemen and a first round QB is definitely going to see massive regression year over year. I think Moore will probably bring in a co-offensive coordinator to replace Campbell as play caller in the offseason. If you’ve never listened to him outside of the emotional Penn State soundbite, then you might think he’s dumb, but he’s a very bright guy.

That was all under Harbaugh, who is one of the best coaches in the country at evaluation and development at any level of football. Just like Chris Beard was that for us for a couple of years. It's a long shot that Moore is capable of carrying that level forward. Virtually impossible. 

The best thing Sark and his staff have done is evaluate not only for talent but for fit. Just buying high priced top rated guys at the signing deadline isn't going to work unless you've evaluated and gotten to know all of them and successfully deemed them fits. Does it really seem like Moore has done that here? His ability to do that will decide how successful he can be. I don't think there's any evidence currently to state he has that in him.

The B1G is such a joke with the sign stealing scandal and now not suspending any players for the brawl...heck UM and OSU oughtta be suspending players on their own.  Trash.

An absolutely solid take on meatchicken that I am in full alignment with. And  tOSU.

Agree with all that. I am curious in general how much schools actively try to fuck with rivals. If nothing else, just by driving up prices. If I were Jolin, I would definitely lob offers at every decent player on tOSUs roster even if I have no intention of pursuing heavily. Mizzou might want to do that with ATM too as revenge for the double flip.

The level of spin the LSU $9.95ers are putting on the Phillips flip is quite impressive.  They are somehow whining that “the only reason recruits flip from LSU is money” but at the same time clarifying “oh but LSU still has a very competitive NIL program and definitely knows what they’re doing” in a bizarre attempt to keep their viewers from checking out.  Some of the highlights:

- described the appeal of Texas as “they have a lot of resources”, as if it doesn’t matter that Texas is a playoff team with a coach who doesn’t act like a sociopath.

- LSU’s still has a great NIL program, and was offering $800k over two years while mean ol’ Texas offered $1m for 1 year because they aren’t fiscally disciplined and LSU is (but still could have matched if they wanted to).

- “are you willing to spend an unlimited money on a single high school player, or would you rather find an immediate impact guy in the portal?”.  Why not do both?

So your argument is that he’s an idiot and doesn’t know shit because he didn’t have talent at QB this year, so he recruited it and that means he’s just buying players. Got it. I might have stumbled onto it the other day - you might really be Tom Herman.

What does this even mean? That's a garbled mess of nonsense. 

You really did put thought into your user name, but you gave yourself way too much credit. I'll make it simple for your simple mind...

Coach had lot talent this year from Harbaugh

Coach play bad with talent. Coach show nothing to say he knows how to build program 

Billionaire now buy more talent

Coach able to find right fit? Or billionaire just buy star ratings?

Gerry made a point about their OC hire. Said he's from Washington State and has always been an air raid guy. His OL coach played OL for Leach at Tech and has been with this guy at several different stops. 

Does Fasusi really think he's not bringing his own guy? Does he really think air raid is the best system to develop him for the NFL?

Seems kind of stupid on the surface.

I’m as shocked as you are that a 17 year old male might be making a bad decision.
