cdc0f694_GoBlue___mgoblog__Body | [Date] 7 weeks 5 days ago [Title] Davis effect? [Body] | I wonder how much of a factor, if any, Kingston Davis might have been in this offer. I am in no way suggesting that Joshnson is not worthy of an offer on his own merits, but having both teammates committed (along with Washington already on campus) will only help our attempts to keep Davis in the fold as he fields more serious interest from many of the top SEC programs. Clearly the coaches would not have offered Johnson if they did not feel he was qualified, but maybe the teammate factor weighed in a bit? | [] | GoBlue | mgoblog | Body | http://mgoblog.com/users/goblue?quicktabs_2=0&quicktabs_1=0 | 0/1438042988458.74_20150728002308-00204-ip-10-236-191-2_166189756_0.json |

9b5e2dc6_Ren___mgoblog__Title | [Date] 5 years 34 weeks ago [Body] Well, that's your opinion and we're allowed to have ours. Don't come be holier than thou about it, either. If some people see doom and gloom spelled all over the Michigan basketball team after 6 games, 4 of which really didn't look that great, I can't blame them...especially thinking about what the rest of the Big Ten looks like. There's a reason analysts considered the Big Ten to be the best this season, even though it hasn't totally lived up to it thus far. It's also just sports' fans nature to look ahead and speculate, and we're going to do that. Realistic speculating right now for Michigan--it doesn't look good, i.e. we don't look like a NCAA Tourney team. Hopefully, that will change, and for the majority of us it's not like what we've seen is going to make us stop watching/supporting and hoping for the best. Also, as a Michigan alum...not sure how other Michigan alums feel, but for me this is not just about sports. These teams are an extension of the University, and they represent the university. When I was a student at Michigan, I could not send out resumes or go on job interviews without those employers talking to me about the football team. Our university is associated with excellence, and our football, basketball and hockey teams look far from excellent. It's not just embarrassing, but it's also painful to see Michigan fail at so many things...not to say the basketball team and hockey teams have failed, because the season is young for both...even though over the past decade, yeah, the basketball team kinda has failed, and the football team has failed the past two years, whatever excuse people want to make for them/RR. But neither the bball nor hockey teams are meeting standards and goals set for them right now both as sports teams and as entities associated with a proud university such as Michigan.

9b5e2dc6_Ren___mgoblog__Title | [Date] 5 years 43 weeks ago [Body] Cissoko is far from Michigan's only problem, especially on defense--if there is any reason to not pile on him, it's that. Frankly, if it weren't for Forcier and somewhat Carlos Brown, they wouldn't be 4-0. You don't have to "look" for problems with Michigan this year because several are GLARING, but, at the same time--sure, Michigan is also giving us a LOT to be proud of. It's highly unrealistic to expect Michigan or any other fans not to complain or point out problems with a team, though, especially when you're a fan of a team with Michigan's history. It's not the case that just because you point out problems, you're not grateful for what Michigan has accomplished so far--it's hard to know that if Michigan's defense was better, they could probably win the Big Ten this year...even with a freshman quarterback. After last year, seeing Michigan win the Big Ten would be amazing, and who doesn't want that feeling?

9b5e2dc6_Ren___mgoblog__Title | [Date] 6 years 41 weeks ago [Body] It seems like there are some people here who expect entirely too much, as if everyone is supposed to write like an ESPN blogger--perfect stats and understanding of the game, perfect format, etc--on a personal blog. Don't worry about it. I completely agree with you about how some of those players probably feel about RR and how it affects their play. I think Michigan is supposed to be better than they are this season, too, and I suspect the reasons why they're not have more to do with what's going on inside the program than what kind of players we have. The QB situation is a problem (and some people want to say the O-Line, too, although I think they have, at least, gotten better enough), but it's not the only one. My personal feeling is this is not like App St., and for people who compare it I'd say App. St. was worse. For one thing, when Michigan lost that game, everyone was healthy and we had all these playmakers, all these seniors, and we were being talked about for the National Championship. At this point in the season--and, frankly, the same should be said for when Michigan played Miami OH--I don't see how anyone could look at the way Michigan has played and not have worried they'd lose to Toledo. App. St. was surprising; unfortunately, this loss was not. App. St. ruined our whole season, depending on what you wanted for Michigan and thought Michigan had potential to do (I want a national title...not the Rose Bowl, not just the Big Ten title, not just to beat OSU).

I have been thinking he is tougher on players, but in a different sense (i.e. practicing--even though you can't tell from the game play--conditioning, etc). He's more emotional than Carr. It's funny at times--watch his face when Michigan is losing. He looks disgusted, devastated, pained. His reaction to the Thompson interception touchdown--never would have seen that from Carr. It's great because that's one big thing I didn't like about Carr. But I'm pretty sure he is a huge @sshole in practice, from clips I've seen.

9b5e2dc6_Ren___mgoblog__Title | [Date] 6 years 43 weeks ago [Body] I'm curious about your comment that MSU is whipping us in recruiting. I was watching CBSC the other day, possibly yesterday but no later than Monday, and they had Michigan listed in the top 10 so far for recruiting. I don't recall MSU being in the top 10, but I could be wrong. Also, different recruiting lists rank differently. Even so, I'm glad there's someone else who is not sure they're in love with Rich coming to Michigan, because on mlive.com a lot of fans try to make it seem like you're not a real Michigan fan if you say anything against him/his staff. Personally, I find Rodriguez to be kind of fake. This could be why we hear things from the inside about "family values," but why he seems like a nice guy to the media. In addition, does anyone watch "Inside Michigan Football"? I believe that is where I saw a Michigan D player say he hated Rodriguez "at first." I'm not sure I want Ferentz, but boy, I was watching a little of Boise State smack Louisiana Tech and thought maybe we should have stolen that coach. I saw his name thrown around by the media a little bit last season when Carr announced his retirement. The position that BSU coach keeps putting that program in amazes me.

9b5e2dc6_Ren___mgoblog__Title | [Date] 6 years 43 weeks ago [Body] I definitely understand how some people could hesitate to even think about this, much less make a prediction, and how some would think anyone is crazy to say it. But I agree--I just have a feeling Michigan will do it this year, and because it seems the most unlikely year. To put it in context, the past two years--especially in 2006--it seems like so many people seriously thought Michigan had a chance. I looked at OSU, then looked at Michigan, play their games and told those people without any hesitation, "absolutely not." Michigan had the talent, but they didn't play well enough in 2006 as opposed to how OSU played. In 2007, Michigan certainly could have done it if we didn't have those key injuries, because OSU didn't play well in that game. So this is the only year I've believed Michigan could do this. OSU is inexplicably underperforming--some people don't see it, but I totally do. Michigan is under the radar this season. I don't think any of the coaches who have to play Michigan respect Michigan as much as they try to say in their conferences, so that's going to affect how the team prepares and how they come out against us. We have oodles of talent. To me, it's not so much about how much better we'll be then, because I look at our inconsistency and really worry that it won't get any better by the end of the season. I worry we'll still only be capable of playing well for 30 mins. But I also look at Threet, who really seems to care deeply about the QB position and doing well, even when it looks just gone (i.e. the Wisconsin game)--he is the kind of person with serious leadership who makes things happen, pulls stuff out the air, wills himself to play better when you least expect it. And I think that's partially because he is fighting for the position--it's not 100% his. What I like about the Michigan team we have now is they have a fighting spirit that I don't think Michigan quite had the past few years, except maybe the Capital One bowl (and you saw what Michigan was capable of with that spirit), and that matters.

Assuming they get a small percentage of each sale, they would have to sell hundreds of thousands of them to make enough of a profit to make it purely about money wouldn't they? | [] | laxalum | mgoblog | Body | http://mgoblog.com/users/laxalum?page=0%2C0%2C0%2C1 | 0/1438042988458.74_20150728002308-00172-ip-10-236-191-2_155633666_0.json |

From a conference that struggled a bit through the season and wasn't expected to get more than one bid to having three bids and all three advance to the final 8. Shows the level that Michigan still has to get to, which obviously won't happen overnight. For me Albany is the team to watch. They play the game the way it's meant to played...fast. It's very entertaining. Reminiscent of lacrosse in the 80s and 90s. I would love to see them beat ND and get to the final four. Tall order though. ND is probably the most balanced team in the tournament. Hopkins turned a corner when they played Michigan. Earlier in the season they were losing close games to ranked teams, mostly because their goalies couldn't save a beach ball. Their senior starter played really well against Michigan, and since then you could argue they are playing the best lacrosse of anyone in the tournament. | [] | laxalum | mgoblog | Body | http://mgoblog.com/users/laxalum?page=0%2C0%2C0%2C1 | 0/1438042988458.74_20150728002308-00172-ip-10-236-191-2_155633666_0.json |

JP and the athletic department are clearly building the varsity program (Team Four and all that), but they are also making a real effort to honor the past. It's smart. The club alums are the donors and job network for the current players. The guys from my era had a lot of fun and made great friends playing, and the guys from the last few club teams have a lot of pride in the championships they won. And in Michigan's case, which is kind of unique in lacrosse, the D1 program came about in large part because of the way the club team was built. | [] | laxalum | mgoblog | Body | http://mgoblog.com/users/laxalum?page=0%2C0%2C0%2C1 | 0/1438042988458.74_20150728002308-00172-ip-10-236-191-2_155633666_0.json |

Not sure what people are seeing when they say awful defense. Yes there were a few breakdowns, but overall you can see the improvement. And other than Logan, they are doing it without a single guy who I would call great at that end. No defense, I don't care who you are, can shut down a good offense (and Ohio State has a good, not elite, offense) if the other team has the ball a lot more than you do. Faceoffs are the biggest factor holding this team back. And today there were a few untimely turnovers, both on offense and on clears, that didn't help. I loved the scrap in the first half. Diving for loose balls and flying around. They just played a muderers row of faceoff guys between Maryland, Rutgers and Ohio State. They survived Rutgers because they actually are a slightly better team and they had just enough offense, but Maryland and Ohio State without the ball isn't going to work out too well. I'm hopeful they can compete a little better for faceoffs in the next two weeks. Hopkins and Penn State are good there, but not like these last three. If this team beats Penn State and makes the Big Ten tournament that's a success for this year. Everybody picked them to be last of six, and they already are positioned to be 4th or 5th. | [] | laxalum | mgoblog | Body | http://mgoblog.com/users/laxalum?page=0%2C0%2C0%2C1 | 0/1438042988458.74_20150728002308-00172-ip-10-236-191-2_155633666_0.json |

I seem to recall that the date of the spring game was changed within the last couple of months, so I would guess that had something to do with it. That and the regime change with both new Jims taking over. Probably other factors too having to do with the Big Ten starting up. I suspect they have less flexibility with their own conference scheduling than they did with the ECAC. I'd love to see them do what Ohio State does with their spring game and lacrosse game combo. They play the lacrosse game first, then have a real game for the spring game, which helps draw huge crowds for both. Winning also helps I suppose. Huge win yesterday though. Nice to have King back. They got dominated at faceoffs for the second straight week, but this time found a way to overcome that. Ohio State looked great last night against Hopkins. Chances for an upset depends on which Buckeye team shows up on Sunday. The one last night or the one that laid a goose egg against ND and lost to Detroit. Hopkins, as much as they are struggling, will be a really tough out, especially on the road. That game is their homecoming (yes, they have their school homecoming in the spring at a lacrosse game). Penn State seems to be the best chance to get another win and hopefully lock down a tournament spot. | [] | laxalum | mgoblog | Body | http://mgoblog.com/users/laxalum?page=0%2C0%2C0%2C1 | 0/1438042988458.74_20150728002308-00172-ip-10-236-191-2_155633666_0.json |
760a4f6e_laxalum___mgoblog__Body | [Date] 17 weeks 4 days ago [Title] Got to go to the game [Body] | Got to go to the game yesterday. Maryland is a top 3 team for a reason. To be fair, three of Michigan's losses this season are to the current #1, #3 and #10. This is still a much improved team in its fourth year. They just don't have the horses and skill sets that the elite teams do yet. A few thoughts from this one. 1. Maryland is loaded on offense, but they don't wow you there. They are very methodical. Where they kill you is on faceoffs, where Raffa is a complete animal, and defense/goalie. Michigan didn't get the ball much because of Raffa, and when they did they had a lot of trouble generating quality shots. The Maryland goalie ate up most of the shots they did manage. They are giving up less than 5 goals per game this season, which is insane. 2. Michigan really misses King. As I said, they had trouble getting good shots and then burying them. It can't help to be missing their one legitimate great player on that end, especially against the best defense in the country. I thought the Michigan players were athletic enough to make some things happen offensively, but their sticks let them down a lot with turnovers or bad shot placement, and Maryland jumped all over mistakes like a top-5 team should. Kyle Jackson made some things happen, but he can't do it alone. Shlosser is really fast and explosive, but his stick needs to improve. 3. It was a good crowd, maybe 3,000 or so. Lots of Michigan people. Byrd Stadium is too big for lacrosse, like Michigan Stadium, but they do a good job with the event there as you would expect at a school where lacrosse is really important. | [] | laxalum | mgoblog | Body | http://mgoblog.com/users/laxalum?page=0%2C0%2C0%2C1 | 0/1438042988458.74_20150728002308-00172-ip-10-236-191-2_155633666_0.json |

That was their second D1 scrimmage. They played Providence at home before that, losing 11-10 in OT. The score against St. Joe's was 9-5. They were down 5-3 at the half. Granted, that was not yet a good St. Joe's team back then. Both teams have been steadily improving since then, but obviously St. Joe's had a big head start as an older program. They did get smoked 14-2 by Towson that day. Maybe you're remembering that one. Either way, this was a good win for this team right now. St. Joe's was 11-4 last year and thumped us at home. They almost beat Virginia earlier this week. To win this one on the road without a guy like King after losing two in a row says a lot about their fortitude. | [] | laxalum | mgoblog | Body | http://mgoblog.com/users/laxalum?page=0%2C0%2C0%2C1 | 0/1438042988458.74_20150728002308-00172-ip-10-236-191-2_155633666_0.json |

Schlosser was great until St Joes put their pole on him. Then there weren't a lot of other offensive options. Would really like to see Jackson get back on track. He was so promising the past couple of years but seems like he's mostly ineffective this year. Is he playing hurt? Great to see the defense step up. Logan is part of that, and he played great, but the defense has been so inconsistent. They played well today, even without regulars like Hatton and Moore (assume both are hurt?). Slides and recoveries were better. Generally better on ball. Were forcing a lot of shots that Logan could save. He did bail them out a few times, but great goalies do that. Lott had a good faceoff day today, and that made a huge difference. I thought the St Joes guy who was having success late was moving early every time, but they only got the call a couple of times. Hard to tell from the angle they showed if the Joseph goal in the first OT should have been good or not. It was close. | [] | laxalum | mgoblog | Body | http://mgoblog.com/users/laxalum?page=0%2C0%2C0%2C1 | 0/1438042988458.74_20150728002308-00172-ip-10-236-191-2_155633666_0.json |

I was hoping for an upset this week based partly on the GTown score and partly on Michigan's two blowout wins, but reality hit today. ND was a national finalist (and ACC champ, which is no joke) last year for a reason and is better this year. Michigan is a fourth year program with three recruiting classes and only one superstar. The only thing that really surprised me was the faceoff struggles until Michigan apparently started using a pole there. They are an above average faceoff team. But that's often a matchup thing that can sometimes go either really well or horribly wrong despite prevous stats and match-ups. It's way to early to say if JP is not the guy. As you say, the team is showing very steady improvement and from all reports they are blowing the doors off in recruiting (which Paul is ultimately responsible for) starting with their 2016 class. I played club with him and have so much respect for all that he's accomplished. But who knows? I'd love to see what he can do with a team that is loaded with ND level talent. I am really happy to see this rivalry starting. As Michigan's program gets better, it's going to be great to see these games turn into battles.

I may be wrong here, but I believe that Notre Dame practices and plays on a narrow field in Loftus as well, so the "tight confines" may not be such an advantage. They definitely have a track around their indoor field, so the building is bigger, but I believe they play the football sidelines.

I'd rather get rid of him and start building toward the future. While we could have done A LOT better a couple months back, he's been doing everything he can to sink his value as low as it could go. It's not like we are a playoff team with him next year anyway. Besides: I like the general direction of the franchise. Mudiay, Nurkic, Gallo, and Faried are all young enough and talented enough to still be around in 3 years when the team should be competing for playoff seeding (as opposed to just getting in). Beside that group, Jokic, Harris, Lauvergene could all become solid rotation players. This team is a great combination of talent, veterans, and "lotto tickets" that should make for an entertaining rebuild. All we need is for the Knicks to SUCK next year, and we'll be in a good spot. | [] | ScruffyTheJanitor | mgoblog | Body | http://mgoblog.com/users/scruffythejanitor | 0/1438042988458.74_20150728002308-00070-ip-10-236-191-2_162548219_0.json |

5469a200_War_Daddy___mgoblog__Body | [Date] 1 week 6 days ago [Title] 3"x3" Neodymium magnet Amazon review/warning [Body] | The reason that there are currently no reviews for this product is because the people who would be giving this review are all now missing their hands, due to various magnet related accidents. Ok, I'm being dramatic but still, this magnet can lift 890 lbs!!!!!! Need I say more? Ok,how's this? The field strength of even a small Neodymium magnet can make its presence known across a room: Now strike an estimate of what a supermagnet, that is larger than what a human hand can properly get a grip around, can do to a person, with an energy product of 42 Mega Gauss Oersteds and a lift rating of 890 lbs!!! NEVER EVER introduce this thing to another Rare Earth magnet! If this thing flies out of your hand and shatters, depending on the direction of the shear, this thing can blow apart like a fragmentation grenade. Believe me when I tell you that, in spite of all this, there's STILL a part of me that want's very badly to buy this thing. Maybe for the same reason we all want to own that cool Hellraiser Cube! "WHAT IS YOUR PLEASURE?!" Seriously I want to buy this magnet!!! It's just that I don't know how to safely approach the damned lovely thing!!! This is the LAMBORGHINI REVENTON OF MAGNETS!! It's every bit as extreme and twice as deadly. Something like this could smash a human hand like like it's made of shaving cream!! SO BE CAREFUL!!!! There should be a special safety manual just for this magnet alone! Seriously, if someone were actually stupid enough to put this magnet together with another 3x3 Neodymium magnet (provided that was even possible to do without these things shattering)it would cause all the other Neodymium magnets from the remotest regions of the world to collide into it and it would become a freakin' black hole singularity of Neodymium magnets WAY BEFORE 2012!!!!
