:roll1:. What a shock. Yet another kid leaves scUM, and he (like the others) just so happens to be a "career backup" who "was behind in terms of work ethic and overall toughness."

Ahh you forgot that if a kid isn't starting by the middle of his first year...he is never going to be starter material due to the lack of player development in AA.

Spare me your list of 4th and 5th year guys that became great players at OSU after not having an impact in year one..that kinda shit doesn't happen up north. :pimp:

How in the heck does that help their program? Don't you see, O'Neill quitting frees up a scholarship for another slot receiver?!

It's all part of The Master Plan(tm).

Should that not be "The Master Shredder Plan" (tm)?

Just to let goblue15 in on the joke, Bam Childress was "Mr. April." I think he collected eight or nine Spring Game MVPs in his time here. But put him on a field during a real game against a different team and he didn't know where to run, who to block, or anything.

Went on to the NFL, where he's been Mr. All-Practice for the Patriots for like five years in a row now, too.

Good player. Good kid. Just didn't have it.

Gotcha, I was just trying to say that Roundtree was going to play a decent amount this year I was not trying to make him out to be an all american.

* "But Andre Ware might. The ESPN college football analyst says that not only does he think Ohio State will beat Michigan for several more years, he also thinks Western Michigan will upset Michigan this year. If the losses to OSU and App State had BO rolling in his grave a loss to a directional Michigan school might cause him to rise from it."

Minnesota, Michigan discuss non-league games - College Football Nation - ESPN
According to the blog MVictors.com, Michigan and Minnesota recently discussed scheduling a nonconference game in 2010 at Michigan Stadium. The Wolverines are still looking for an opponent for the Sept. 4 opener, which will mark the first game in the renovated Big House. Minnesota has open dates on Sept. 4 and Sept. 25 and needs to add a 12th game for 2010.
The Gophers and Wolverines don't play in 2009 or 2010.
Minnesota athletic director Joel Maturi confirmed the discussions and explained to MVictors.com why the plan ultimately didn't pan out.

We had already scheduled Southern Cal for next year [2010]. I'm not a real brilliant guy, but I'm not so sure it's in the best interest of Minnesota football to play Southern Cal and Michigan in back-to-back weeks. Non-conference, so-to-speak. As a result, if we had not scheduled Southern Cal I would have been very interested. But we had already inked Southern Cal, which again I applaud coach [Tim] Brewster for improving our schedule, but you don't want to improve it too much. I'm not so sure Ohio State or Michigan would do that either.
Bill proposed it. I thought it was intriguing because the honest truth is, I still needed a game for next year and so did he.

IIRC, this game would not have counted in the big ten standings, it would have just been an ironic OOC matchup.

They aren't even the best directional Michigan school, at least recently.
