This. Braxton is an amazingly gifted athlete, and he does have great arm strength, nobody is denying those two things. However, it takes a lot more than that to be a QB. He had a great game tonight, and hopefully he keeps on improving, but one game doesn't make a season and he's been pretty...

Wow. Devin Gardner is a beast. What an incredible performance by this young man with a play-off berth on the line for his Inkster squad. I was listening to the game via live stream. Devin had around 300 passing yards, 3 TD passes and 1 INT, probably around 120 rushing and 1 rushing TD...

I agree with you 100%. Even if Hankins didn't drop the weight, I could see him being an effective back-up role player as he'd likely run out of gas way too early and way too often to ever start. As a defensive tackle though, he does show good pad level, he's able to get very low despite being...

TRUE FRESHMAN defensive tackle. How many true freshman defensive tackle dominate from the word go? That is one of the hardest positions for 18/19 year old freshman to come in and play. Also, you do understand that Iowa has one of the best offensive lines in the Big Ten right? Will is going...

Ok, I see where you were coming from now, and I don't know if I necessarily agree. Our defense was terrible in 2008, despite running the 4-3 or dabbling in the 3-3-5. We needed an upgrade at DC, and we got one in Greg Robinson. His philosophies on a base defense falling more in-line with...

Yes, it really is. You are trying to make something out of nothing. This is Greg Robinson's defense. Robinson could've pretty much named his ticket at any open DC in college football, and Carroll was pursuing him at USC. He wasn't going to come to Michigan and to be a "figure-head" DC and run...

Yes, it is. The defense is entirely Greg Robinson's. The type of scheme that he is running is very similar the scheme that USC has been running under Carroll, and that scheme has worked very well for 'SC. We obviously don't have that type of talent or depth right now and we likely never...

Well, Urban Meyer at Florida runs a very similar system on offense right now, and they will have no problem placing offensive players in the NFL over the next few years. Obviously not very many 5'9/5'10 WR's will be getting drafted come NFL draft time. But those aren't the only types of WR's...

We played in a 4-3 last year under Shaffer, dabbled with the 3-3-5 for a little while there which obviously had RR's fingerprints all over it, but they went right back to the 4-3 once that was apparent it wasn't going to work out. This 3 man front defense that we are deploying right now isn't...

Well he walked in and landed these 4*'s or better on defense... 2008 Boubacar Cissoko, CB, 4* JB Fitzgerald, LB, 4* Brandon Smith, S/LB, 4* Mike Martin, DT, 4* Kenny Demens, LB, 4* Taylor Hill, LB, 4* (transfered) Marcus Witherspoon, LB, 4* (failed to qualify) 2009 Will Campbell, DT, 5* Justin...

Warning: LONG post. This was a topic we discussed before, and I know you guys like to say that Rich can't produce NFL talent, but what do some of you guys think about this post that I found on a Michigan board? [SIZE=2] I think that guy pretty much nailed it.^^^

Hope I don't get lambasted for saying this, but I don't think Braxton is playing QB in college. Great athlete though.

Are you talking about Taylor Mays of USC? Who by the way, I think is completely overrated and terrible in pass coverage. If you are, I think it's two things: A) Both from a helmet school. B) Both impressive looking physical specimens that deliver high-light reel worthy hits. Most of the...

Probably not even Shazor. Probably Jamar Adams, who by his senior year was a very solid safety. Before that probably Cato June. Shazor was pretty much a glorified linebacker. He was god awful in pass coverage, but man he could hit and he had some high-light reel hits in his day. The last...

Rivals $$$ from Mike Farrell, dated 10/21/09 Cullen just returned from his first official to UCLA. Says he has a top 3 in no order of WVU, UCLA, and Michigan. He's taking an official to WVU this weekend, and this his three remaining officials will be to Pitt, Ohio State, and Michigan -...

Obi has a big test this Saturday against Penn State, if he can play like he did against Iowa in this game then there may still be hope for him. That was honestly the most head-scratching awful play that I have seen from Mouton yet, and he's had a lot of those types of head-scratching awful...

Ezeh has been slowly improving, had a great showing against Iowa. Mouton just looks lost out there, even though he's probably our most talented linebacker from an athletic stand-point. I think Marvin Robinson could potentially replace Mouton. I think Brandin Hawthorne takes over the spinner...

Wait, I'm confused here. Ezeh and Mouton return. Or are you implying that is a bad thing? (which it is....)

There is this guy named uh, Darryl Stonum. He's by far the most talented WR we have and he's only a true sophomore.

Shhhhhhhhhhhhh....... I hope he stays, because Donovan is the best CB we've had since Woodson. Yes, I said it. He's better than Hall or Jackson.
