I have this dream. This drama and Harbaugh's role in it create such a stink that he is fired from the NFL. I mean, that's my 10/10...seeing the scandal move from "sign-stealing" to include the computer crime going on with his full knowledge and ending up with him totally disgraced. It isn't going to happen, but I can dream.

Foul play suspected at University of Michigan golf course​

It's the mystery of the week – who (or what) is fouling up the putting greens in Ann Arbor?

On the morning of Thursday, July 16, the University of Michigan Golf Course sent an email to the public about an "unexpected issue" with grass discoloration on its course. And though the email doesn't detail the extent of the problem, it takes a dark turn before asking for help.

"Over the last few days, we have experienced an unforeseen and highly unusual decline in the coloring of our putting surfaces," the email says. "Our grounds team is actively monitoring the situation and developing an action plan for moving forward.

"At this time, we suspect that foul play may be involved, and we are working closely with our partners at the Department of Public Safety to complete a full investigation."

In 2022, Golfweek ranked the track on its best campus courses list and the Detroit Free Press ranked U-M the No. 1 public course in metro Detroit golf, bringing some of The Masters to Michigan with the original design by famed English architect Alister MacKenzie.

We checked out the course Thursday afternoon, and all nine greens we saw on the front were affected; specifically the fringes were burned out, though pockets of greens were also quite brown. They still rolled decent, but prices for a round were slashed by the course due to the greens. Tee boxes and fairways remained lush.

U-M GC declined further comment due to the "active investigation," referring all requests to the Department of Public Safety.

U-M GC asked its community to share information on the situation if they have any – though if U-M needs some help with its greens, maybe it should ask the experts at Michigan State for help, specifically MSU's "Sultan of Sod" who is the World Cup turfgrass whisperer.

Day 2. Isn't as bad a yesterday. I can see the breakwall and the edge of the shore. Breeze has picked up and it's pushing everything southwest quickly.

That said, my throat and nose are fucked. So either I have small cold and this is a red herring, or it hit me WAY worse than 3 years ago.

Feels worse this time too. It smells like being in a plastic injection molding factory. Last time it just smelled a bit like burning wood, but nothing as strong as this time round.

Guardians game postponed tonight.

Funny because Lathan Ransom sauced Dylan Sampson’s ribs and he said “No Mas”

Wait. This doesn't pass the sniff test. For these new allegations to be true, that would mean Harbaugh would have told a lie.

3 keys for Ohio State to get back to a national championship game after a disappointing 2025​

The Buckeyes will look to return to their 2024 postseason form this fall, and they have the roster to do it — if a few things go their way.

A second weapon must emerge alongside Jeremiah Smith

Everyone knows Jeremiah Smith is the most talented player in college football. That’s not a secret, and neither is the fact that the team plays its best when opposing defenses can’t devote all their attention to stopping him. With Carnell Tate gone, Ohio State needs someone to step up and become the next dynamic sidekick for Smith.

The candidates are there. Chris Henry Jr., Brock Boyd, Devin McCuinn, and Brandon Inniss all have the opportunity to seize that role. If one of them emerges as a legitimate threat, it opens up the entire offense and makes Smith even more dangerous. Without that complementary piece, I find it hard to believe Ohio State can win it all. Defenses will continue to bracket Smith and force Julian Sayin to find alternative options under pressure.

Arthur Smith must commit to the run game​

This might be the most important offensive adjustment Ohio State can make. Last year, under Brian Hartline, the Buckeyes abandoned the run game in critical moments, and it cost them in losses to Indiana and Miami. Bo Jackson has the potential to be the best running back in the country. But he needs to be given a bigger workload.

With Hartline gone and Arthur Smith now calling plays, there’s reason for optimism. Smith has a well-documented history of leaning into the ground game throughout his coaching career. If he brings that same philosophy to Columbus, Ohio State’s offense should be significantly more balanced.

The ripple effect matters here, too. A stronger run game takes pressure off Sayin, who struggled when opposing defenses sent pressure after him. When teams couldn’t respect the run, Sayin was forced into uncomfortable situations. A commitment to balance fixes that.

Matt Patricia needs to unleash the 2025 recruiting class​

Ohio State lost significant defensive talent to the NFL this offseason, with Sonny Styles, Caleb Downs, Arvell Reese, and Kayden McDonald all getting drafted. The Buckeyes’ ability to reload rather than rebuild will determine whether their defense remains among the best in the country.

The 2025 recruiting class has the names to make it happen. Zion Grady, Riley Pettijohn, T.J. Alford, and Devin Sanchez all have the talent to become the next great Ohio State defender. If Matt Patricia can develop even one of these players into a dominant force at their position, the defense should continue to operate as a top unit in college football.

Winning another national championship in 2026 is absolutely accomplishable. But they’ll need to address these issues to make it happen.
