There is a Mike Morris joke in there somewhere.

Carson Beck made $4M from Miami last year and Arch is between $5.5M-$7M. How much do you think Miami would pay for Justin Fields? Fields might not be the best example because maybe someone gives him another shot and maybe he'd take less to try to get another QB1 opportunity. That said, I think...

No, you're right. I don't think he wins enough right now for Michigan to be interested. I do think he would win a lot more with more talent but I don't think many programs of Michigan's caliber are going to try to sell that to their fan base (to our benefit).

Other than what have been determined as arbitrary NCAA rules that been typically seen as unreasonable restraints on trade, what is stopping Justin Fields from returning to college? They are all professionals now, what is stopping someone from pursuing more money in a different league?

IMO, the Michigan fans that I know want the best of both worlds but at the end of the day they'll default to the side of winning. You'll hear weird shit where they'll talk about how it's more difficult to win at Michigan than Ohio State/Alabama/Etc. because of their integrity but at the same...

You're 100% right. I'd rather go max protect and give TJ or Bateman another .5 seconds to get open then dump the ball down to Rodney Smith for a 2 yard gain. IMO, as someone who doesn't love the west coast offense, there just aren't many people in college who can go through the progressions...

Aesthetically, that is really hard to watch. The NBA changed the game in the 90's/00's to go to a more skill-based game. Some would argue it went too far, reasonable people can disagree. This type of flopping is considerably worse for the game (IMO), it's hard to watch.

I don't think they'll do it. You make a move like that to get over the hump. They already have a title and one of the best teams of all time. I think they'll stay the course.

About damn time.

I loved Sam Jacobson when I was a little kid. I was in grade school when my dad packed me and my buddies into our Astrovan to drive to Cottage Grove to watch him. That said, I don't think he is quite the caliber of having your jersey retired. Bobby Jackson was the best player on our best team...

I hear what you're saying but I think last year's offense would have been one of our worst if not for good QB play. We did very little to help him out. Our receivers weren't great, we couldn't run the ball, and our offensive line struggled. You're not wrong, at times, he was certainly part of...

They were sort of forced to hire Moore.

He also had two great passing rushing DL in Riley and Schlecht. Blitzing is less effective if you're less worried about leaving guys 1-on-1. Oddly enough, I thought one of our problems this year is that we occasionally were too exotic in our blitzing. The Rutgers game was maddening with the...

This is true as long as you're on the up and up.

Thanks!

Is Bluto the same person as Brutus? Or did they just look alike?

This is 100% true. It is difficult for these types of coaches (interim types that are elevated) to really have a ton of support. By definition, they almost always only get the job if they are following someone super successful. Why would you hire the OC of a bad team? In 2010, Jeff Horton had...

RIP Killjoy.

It'd be a great idea. I am not sure Michigan wants to be THAT clean.

The crazy thing about this and I have no sympathy for him, but this was actually Kiffin at USC.
