You would think they could at least use something approximating correct grammar, but then again consider the likely source. It took me a minute to figure out what "a Stanford Wayne Lyons mom" was. The rumored 4* 2016 son is also amusing considering how easy it is to identify in about 30 seconds any high school player with the slightest chance of being recruited. We say ye should go play outside.

You could really kill yourself dwelling on players that didn't come to Michigan. Also, for every one that didn't come there could be a really popular player who came in their place. Best approach is to recruit as best you can then roll with the players you have.

Why do you feel so compelled to judge how deep someone's bond is relative to someone else's based on your personal criteria? I went to graduate school at Michigan with people from Notre Dame who despite their degree developed little or no bond with Michigan. How does that compare with someone who grew up a diehard fan but for one reasonor another didn't go to Michigan? That's just one example, there are many others.

[Date] 25 weeks 4 days ago [Title] Don't get this [Body]
I'm from NY and went to Michigan for graduate school but I know a lot of people around here who consider themselves Michigan fans without any of the hangups you seem to have experienced. They just like Michigan. Big time college football doesn't have a major presence here and plently of sports fans root for different teams. In most cases they never thought about going to Michigan out of HS (I didn't) so not being able to get in isn't a factor. There are many reasons people don't go to certain schools other than not having the grades, especially if they're out of state. Attitudes like yours alienate people who want to get behind Michigan regardless of where they went to college, or if they did go to college. I don't see the point other than feeding your own arrogance.

[Date] 5 years 46 weeks ago [Body] Whoa whoa whoa wait up a minute 'peoples' this is a game in which the Notre Dame Fighting Irish have a lil more to lose than the Michigan Wolverines. Guess what,"We're still rebuilding here in Michigan people!" Notre Dame needs to be 'rebuilt' by this game. This is a coronation moment for both Clausen and Weis. This is a big, if not huge game, for Mr. Charlie Weis. If Michigan wins, think about it, with the big tens performance this past week, Michigan will more than likely still not be ranked. Rather Notre Dame will just slide out of the rankings. The idea that at week 2, a non ranked 3-9 of last year, can slide into the top 25 at 2-0 is ludicrous. AND I DON'T WANT MICHIGAN RANKED TILL THEY BEAT A RANKED TEAM ON THE ROAD! Michigan, with freshman QB's, a never quit attitude(MUCH LIKE NAVY HAD), and the idea that WERE THE UNDERDOG can really make this a game. [Title]

Tempo, overall game tempo is tough to get or control when you are playing an evenly matched team. I believe these two teams are now evenly matched given Michigan's home field and last game played.

[Date] 5 years 47 weeks ago [Body] There seems to be a friendly game of can you top this, as far as play making goes amongst the younger Michigan team. I mean this both offensively and defensively. Very good sign, very good. Carlos Brown, I mean, is anyone that overly concerned now with the idea of starting Brown? With the play of Koger is anyone overly bummed about Sims at MSU? The players were holding onto the football, taking big hits and then stretching the plays for an extra 2-3 yards. There seems to be a developing sense of,"we, the young guys of Michigan, want to take ownership and show what we can do." To me, that's family values 101. One of the few negatives I heard, and I heard it from people who could care less about Michigan. But they all said,"You got blanked in the 2nd half. Did they figure out your schemes in the 2nd or what?" I did not notice there were no points in the 2nd and I still think there were points in the 2nd half. But if there were not I'd write it off to experimentation and to the idea that,"Dude, we're up 31-0 at halftime." The reality is, for all teams on Michigans schedule, that you can't really look at Forcier as a freshman anymore. And you cannot sleep on that offense. [Title]

[Date] 5 years 47 weeks ago [Body] He will be a great guy and coach here. I mean in the long view, when people give the guy some room to do his thing. Perception is a weird thing. Because the guy, I mean coach, could be smiling and teaching and have that moment not on TV. And then the media could cherry pic and seek out the moment where he blows his cool and then air that. I want to see the public or overall narrative changed on Coach Rodriguez because he is a likable guy. But he's a football guy and there's nothing wrong with that. Recommending a football coach to smile more is kind of chintzy and lame. I mean it's football for God's sakes! But, I also think the days or Woody Hayes are long gone. You almost have to be part coach, part baby-sitter and a full time pr guy. Who also has an agent by the way. All in all, with all the crap that goes along with it, college football coaching is not for the timid. One can deduce that from following Michigan and Rich as of late. "Win one for RR," is my motto.

[Date] 5 years 47 weeks ago [Body] Jim Rome said the same thing. Actually Rome said something to the effect of,"And he'd better hope most of the team has bought in or there will be something to really cry about. And if they lose to Western, look out Michigan." In all of this, every moment of controversy that has happened from day one, it has been about perception and the handling of how things went down. Some one on ESPN radio said, paraphrasing again,"throughtout the hiring process you wished there were handlers in the athletic department managing the overall output of the decisions upon the brand name of Michigan. And in the press conference as well." The question you the reader have to ask yourself is,"Do you think the guy knew he was going to tear up before going in?" In some ways that's what journalists who take the,"He teared up?" avenue may be thinking. I dont think a coach gets emotional on cue. If I was making desicions and part of the athletic dept. I would've already put Brian on payroll and asked him to be the handler of all things media. He has the insight and the youth. Once again, if Michigan wins, people will shut up. [Title]
Perception, period.

[Date] 5 years 48 weeks ago [Body] What's the forecast on Michigan Football as of today??? Well, the 'shot across the brow' of Michigans Football vessel has been taken. As I watched the news today, the interviews and season felt like it came a week early. In some ways, this may serve advantageous to the mindset of the warriors involved in this up and coming football game. It should be a better, more focused week of game prep. It's a must win game. Will Michigan lose games this year? Could Michigan possibly lose to Western Michigan? Could Michigan win it's first 4? Yes, to all. Don't be surprised if this game is close and don't be surprised if its a blowout. I mean that for both squads. It's essential that the Wolverines take a rational, methodical approach on both offense and defense. The idea that emotion can be harnessed, or the idea of playing off of it has kind of left the building. At this point, it's just for the love of the game. At this point, for the players, coaches and fans of Michigan Football, you will win and lose quietly. [Title]
Good Football Weather!

[Date] 5 years 48 weeks ago [Body] I just don't see it long term. People talk of the core ideas of offensive football changing from an offensive formation. That formation being the spread. Did Donovan McNabb make his money in the NFL running the ball or from his scrambling mobility? Think of Steve Young firing lasers to T. Owens. Think of any running vs scrambling QB and you'll see scramblers, who are tall with good instincts and passing ability succeeding in the NFL. For gods sakes Eli Manning is the highest paid NFL player. Dude couldnt run our spread if he tried. To make money in any professional sport, you need reps. You do not currently get enough reps when as a NFL QB you're only reps come from running the Wildcat. McNabb, he made his money by scrambling and also being an adept passer. As a QB, first and foremost you need to be able to throw the football. Sorry, but it's a job req. and it always will be. A running QB will rarely be franchised(because of fear of injury) by anyone looking to throw money at a young college kid. Even Timothy Tebow will have to prove himself as a drop back passer in the coming years in the NFL. The fact is there is no way D. Rob or even Darth Forcier garner the NFL looks Barkely will, should all stay healthy. With Mark Sanchez starting as a rookie in the NFL in his first game you have the perfect analog for Barkely. The reality is here and is no longer on the horizon. USC is winning with the old Michigan ideas and formulas. And thus the idea and title of QB U has passed to them. So the idea of a 'draftable' high round QB from Michigan is no more. Maybe, maybe Gardner should be develop though. [Title]
The NFL is different

[Date] 5 years 48 weeks ago [Body] Yeah, it is weird that a freshman is STARTING let alone playing at the QB position. BUT, it seems to me, that once the game starts, USC, no matter who is running what position, just takes over the game. As a Wolverine fan at Quarterback 'U,' it will be tough watching pro-style QB after pro-style QB from USC get drafted over ours. It is really a no brainer that a healthy Barkley, in two-three years time, garners 1st round draft money over what we currently have at UofM. And that is also another reason why Denard Robinson should stay(shows commitment and loyalty) at Michigan should be not find time at the QB position. Because if he's that fast and skilled, an NFL team will make room for him somewhere at some position. [Title]

[Date] 5 years 49 weeks ago [Body] Wait, must win? Yeah, must win. Weird as hell to utter it aloud if you are a long time supporter of Wolverine Football. However, don't kid yourself, it's a huge game. When I think of UofM football I think of the 2006 season. 11-0, opening day victory over an SEC team. Then a M.A.C.-CMU drubbing, followed by a line of consecutive victories. And then barely losing to tOSU, coupled with a bowl game loss to the PAC-10. But, I think my history of Michigan Football kind of stops there. It then merges into a moment, a moment I am still sort of in. After giving up 21 points in the second quarter and the ensuing 34-32 opening day loss to Appalachian State, my ability to remember what I knew of Michigan is lost. My point is this, you can play 3,4 or 5 QB's coach if you want. But this team and it's fan need to stop the bleeding and win a home opener. I WISH it were like basketball or baseball where you could try this and that in pre-season tournaments. Football is a different animal, especially in these days of the BCS. So, if you are hoping to go to a bowl game as a Wolverine fan(as I am), well, I hope WMU is a W for you(us). [Title]
Western Michigan is a MUST win for the Wolves

[Date] 5 years 50 weeks ago [Body] As a punt returner, the only thing you really have to do is field or catch the punted football. Personally I am not concerned one bit if their return yards are in the negative. The concern is a special teams turnover after our defense has caused a three and out! I would hope the special teams coach changes the name of the punt return team to the punt-catch team. You only have to catch it fellas. Fair catch if it helps! [Title]

[Date] 6 years 5 weeks ago [Body] The more reps this young man gets the more dividends he'll pay off. And it is weird saying that about someone so young and inexperienced at the QB position. He understands reads well for being as young as he is. He has older brothers who have played QB. Also guys like Marv Marinovich helping with this facet or area of learning. Secondly, he has great technique and like Brian said is freakishly accurate. Lastly he is a good scrambler who can do a lil running. But the most important thing I saw at the spring game is that he wants to take ownership of the offense. By the time he's a senior he'll be barking and coaching on the field. Should he stay healthy, he will be tough to dethrone over the years. Just a great fit all the way around for Michigan fans. Should be a fun four years. [Title]
Solid Prospect.

[Date] 6 years 5 weeks ago [Body] I think Forcier is a great pickup for Michigan. There needs to be some kind of forward motion, or the identification of some of the missing puzzle pieces that Coach Rodriguez and Michigan fans need. And this recruit landing in Ann Arbor is one of those pieces. The downside is that he scrambles and then gets a zinger or dinger laid on. Height is really not an issue simply because he played taller in the spring game. Scrambling was not an issue either because he was elusive in the spring game. The fear is the spaces in between where the play breaks down, causing the scramble, and some random 200 plus LB'er or lineman simply falling/tackling the young man. Because there will be breakdowns, 3rd and longs and other obvious passing plays where he will scramble, be elusive and be one on one with some bigger people in the open field. His loss would significantly hurt the passing rhythm of the Michigan offensive attack. Not that Jack Kennedy and Denard Robinson cannot throw. Great recruit, hard worker, so heres to sliding into tackles and staying healthy fella! [Title]

[Date] 6 years 6 weeks ago [Body] I hope Threet makes all PAC-10 first team by his sr. year under Dennis Erickson! And then I hope he gets drafted high in the NFL! Same for Mallett! That guy, Threet, has a lot of justice on his side man. Threet was somewhat altruistic in my opinion last year. Namely because he was playing for a school he loved when getting called out socially by am offensive coach who'd been there one year! For a redshirt freshman, he took more than his share of blame. Knowing damn well he'd be forgotten and wrote off completely. He learned a great lesson last year that could really help that young man out long term. He wasn't coddled that's for sure. It's an endless debate about the bare cupboards. I get that. But I think when Steve Threet came in against Utah and dropped that pass to Hemingway in the corner, it said something. That CB was pretty good as well. Here's the thing, people judge you when you do great things with an empty cupboard, not a full one. I get CFB is about winning, but there is a game within the game as well. As good as Gardner, Forcier are and will be, I am still concerned by the handling of Threet. My opinion. [Title]

[Date] 17 weeks 5 days ago [Title] This. All of this. [Body]
Words can usually only go so far. I'm a native of Grand Rapids currently in Lansing and I can't wait to move back one hour West some day myself. People have covered the vast majority of the major pluses - water, beaches, beer, great jobs, no traffic, four Pure Michigan seasons, friendly people, small city feel/big city opportunities, no natural disasters, etc. etc., - but sometimes a three-minute video is a nice, ringing endoresement of a city. This is one of the best I've ever seen, and it's all so true too. This video was shown before all the Movies in the Park (which is absolutely amazing BTW - a giant blow-up screen is brought to Ah-Nab-Awen park (right next to the great Gerald R. Ford Presidential Museum) to show movies on Friday evenings in the summer right across from downtown with BYOB) and gave the vast majority of the audience chills every time. The views of the city from that spot are pristine.

[Date] 39 weeks 9 hours ago [Title] Schlissel responds [Body]
Actually, I have seen first-hand personalized responses from President Schlissel to multiple students, so he definitely does read through many of his emails and responds when he feels compelled to. If he ever does respond to an email you send him in the future, don't be alarmed if it comes off as being overly casual...just saying, he's not too worried about 100% proper usage of formal grammar.

[Date] 43 weeks 3 days ago [Title] Sentiments [Body]
I actually agree with 90% of what is written here and have so much more to add on but so little time. I haven't been able to read through all 300-some responses, but I will say the one point you completely lost me was with the "On one hand a TO in this game might be valuable; Hoke clearly wasn't going to concede defeat, and a wasted down running the ball was preferrable to not being able to stop the clock." To me it looked like Hoke had conceded defeat a few minutes into the third quarter. I can live with trying something new at QB in the first half, and maybe even letting Morris stay in there for a series in the second half to see if there's any chance he was the right pick to start, but to keep him in series after series when it was clear that he was not going to lead a come back and after he was increasingly hobbled just pointed to Hoke's overbearing stubbornness. It was almost like he was saying "this is what you asked for, this is what you get". Just as he refuses to wear a headset over and over and over again despite it being more and more apparent that he has no idea what's going on on the field, Hoke was going to continue sticking Morris out there play after play because that was the decision and there was no changing it, score/blowout/fan base be damned. And lastly, perhaps what irks me most about the situation is that the ONE reason I have ever heard Hoke say he doesn't wear a headset is so that he can get a better "feel" for what's going on in the game, on the field. So now we have a clearly hobbled, possibly concussed QUARTERBACK and Hoke claims he had no idea and can only speak for himself. As a head coach, you need to be able to speak for every player and coach that is a part of the team. End of story.

[Date] 1 year 6 weeks ago [Title] Exact opposite experience [Body]
Just in case any prospective, future, or current students read this comment thread and shy away from taking a class taught by Markovits I thought I would share my own perspective. Andy, as he likes his students to call him, always seemed very approachable to me. Yes, he is an academic to a T and lets that be known to his students, but that wasn't much of a turn-off. Most professors at Michigan (and I assume at other elite schools around the country) are quite proud of their work and their research and Andy is no different. In class, Markovits is a bit flighty, literally jumping from topic to topic on a wide blackboard filled with short quips to be discussed throughout lecture, but he's also very engaging with students. At times he would maybe get a little frustrated with students taking a bit longer to pick up on the material at hand, but he would only get short with a student if he/she asked a stupid question (and in my class, it was always the same kid asking stupid questions that EVERY other student in the class would groan about when his hand went up). When my friend and I did decide to talk to him after class one day, we ended up staying about 20 minutes after and talked another 10 minutes or so about Michigan basketball with him as we walked out of Angell Hall. We eventually formed a friendly relationship and Andy took us out for a nice dinner a few months after our class had ended to catch up. In short, I would recommend a Markovits class (some Politics and History of Sport was the one I took) to anyone who can. The professor that looks like he's Dr. Emmett Brown from Back to the Future and dresses like he just woke up is simply classic. Funny aside: one day one of those people trying to pass out fliers for gimmick jobs to a lecture hall was in Markovits's room before the start of class, went through his talk, and started trying to pass stuff out before I believe DPS came in to escort him out, the guy went to the other side of the classroom, and Markovits basically ran him out of the room himself.

It really is amazing how much a player's looks affect who we compare them too. Obviously Booker looks pretty similar to Rivers, and I'm not saying I disagree at all with the comparison (I actually don't think it's a bad one), it is just weird that whenever most people try to compare somebody to someone else they almost always first pick out guys that look very similar.

The thing that people forget most about Izzo is not that he has brought State to the level they are at while Michigan floundered over the same time period (which certainly played a part in MSU's dominance), but that he was HANDED the reigns of the program from Jud Heathcote, and it's not like Heathcote was some slouch of a coach that left a bare cupboard. Izzo had the luxury of taking over a good program for which he had already been an assistant with for 12(!) years. Heathcote made the NCAA Tournament five of his last six years at MSU before retiring and had his team in the top three in the Big Ten in four of those years. Izzo then proceeded to miss the Big Dance his first two years leading the program. Tom Izzo is a solid coach and a very good recruiter, but give me the choice between him and Beilein and I will take the latter every day of the week, no question. And I have said this since the day we hired Beilein. It's not really fair to compare them by record, you have to go off what you see on the court and how well each can coach a team with varying levels of talent.

You people who are ripping on this kid have to keep in mind that he is basically Moss Point's whole team. You can see him being double- and triple-teamed nearly every time he touches the ball in the OP's video, yet he still makes a number of nice-looking shots. Obviously it was probably a bit of an off-night with a lot of missed looks, but no one makes every shot. Trey Burke doesn't make six of every 10 he takes. Have to keep it in perspective.

Although from what I've heard many of those younger and inexperienced players will make up the core of Brazil's team come 2014, notably Neymar, who seems to be a rising star. It is really quite amazing to me sometimes how quickly guys seem to fade from their prime in soccer. Ronaldinho was often placed among the best players in the world around 2010 but I don't even think he played a minute in the 2010 World Cup.

[Date] 3 years 3 weeks ago [Title] I completely agree... [Body]
While a run by the US may be unlikely, I think it would pique the interest of soccer fans here, whom I would presume to be around 90% pro-USA. Obviously we are struggling a little bit in the qualifying stages and haven't looked very good since the 5-0 pummeling of Norway a couple months back; at the same time, however, we also need to realize that Klinsmann is bringing with him almost a completely revamped attacking style (as opposed to Bradley's favorite sit back and counter approach), and that this will take time to provide positive results (much like implementing a new system in American football). In two years' time, perhaps we will be in the conversation to reach the quarters or even semis. I'll be the first to admit I was behind in picking up on the soccer trend (started to follow somewhat in 2006 World Cup, have been trying to follow soccer relatively closely since 2010 World Cup), but I'll do my best to assess the US squad on the same measures: 3 (Attack - solid but not great with Dempsey, Altidore, Boyd, maybe Agudelo, half-Donovan) 4 (Midfield - Donovan should still be top three player for us and Bradley has impressed) 3 (Defense - assuming Gooch is gone) 4 (Goalkeeping) 2 (Depth) 3 (Cohesion/tactics) 19/30 may be a bit ambitious and somewhat biased, but I think it's a reasonable rating. While the 4-1 mark Brazil put on us in a recent friendly looks horrendous, we really had a number of impressive chances and seemed to at least belong on the same field as them. I'll be interested to hear other input here specifically on the US side.

I was at the camp most of the time and talked with Joe a little bit about Brown's performance. In my opinion, Vitto Brown was without a doubt the MVP of the 5-on-5 play. He has a college-ready body, is a legit 6'7/6'8, is very athletic, tenacious on the boards, showed a decent midrange game, blocked a number of shots, and really displayed a refreshing positive attitude, unlike many players these days it seems. He's going to be a solid player wherever he ends up and seems like a good option to keep on the board. We are not full for the 2013 class yet either...Reggie Cameron is the number one priority right now, but if we miss on him I have to hope Brown is still an option. Also, as for kids getting offers on June 15, I think Booker, Bates-Diop, and Bluiett are locks for an offer while Jae'Sean Tate is also very likely to receive one. I also disagree that no one is likely to drop for us early. I think there is a very good chance Booker commits within a couple days of getting an offer.

You are right, Harris does not have an offer from Michigan to play basketball hear. Sounds like Hoke and co. have offered for football, but Beilein is adamant about sticking to the June 15 date of a kid's junior year before offering. As has been pointed out by a couple others above, I also think Harris would be better suited playing football in college. He has some good basketball skill, but I think his is a case of being way over-hyped coming into high school simply because he was faster, taller, and more athletic than everyone else at a young age. I think the older he gets the more his peers will catch up to him on the basketball court. At 6'4 with good speed, Harris is not an unusual guard/wing prospect for college basketball programs, but most football coaches would crave an incoming wide receiver with those measurables. I've seen Harris a few times play basketball and have not been impressed, and while I haven't seen him play football at all, I have heard very good things.
