2010 TSUN arguments & shenanigans (in-season)

[BuckeyeNation27]

So, Iowa is flawed because their defense has feasted on less talented teams, but scUM's offense gets a pass because msu only won as a result of turnovers. The "real scUM O was what you saw against all the tomato cans. You can't argue with that logic, folks.

I wish there was a tangible scale that showed the difference between how funny/clever Tom thinks he is vs how funny/clever he really is.

Did somebody bring up Oregon or was that just his retarded way of saying they aren't shutting down high powered offenses........because that's a dumb fucking way of saying they aren't shutting down high powered offenses.

He's now taken to posting private pm's that call him out. Classy move by a site administrator.

...and many of us will be doing everything we can to get him to Ann Arbor. JH took over a dead Stanford program with half the resources RR inherited when he entered in January of 2008, and has beaten three teams equal to that of OSU since. From 1-11 to Pac-10 contender. Evidently, you watched only Stanford's loss to Oregon this year and not their beatdown of Oregon in 2009 (if you are to be believed).

RR has produced the most painful losin gtransition in college football history after 40 years of winning and the longer bowl streak and this year's team is actually worse off defensively and on special teams.

Your constant, sheep-like support on RR is near cult like and damaging the university. Defense wins championships and RR is an offensive coach that is lost without Casteel (a guy that is doing fine without him). Shafer, who is doing fine at Syracuse, is likely very happy to be out of RR's odd 3-3-5 silly defensive scheme.

RR will depart after this year and those that supported the guy will be tarnished for life (or at least until the first JH win...at which time they'll come to the good side :).

If you valued the university you wouldn't run the board like a communist safe house...let people speak out against this guy! In the meantime, I'll be hammering the performance of selfish RR every day, in every media market I can contact...on many other boards.

Go Blue!

Best part is, that pm is full of truth.

Nobody brought them up, he's just been using them as an example of who scUM wants to be since last season. WHen tOSU shut them down in the Rose Bowl, he went away from that until the past few weeks.

I'm not sure if I get a bigger kick out of his lunacy or his inability to understand internet acronyms (his continual use of "my IMO")...

 

[MililaniBuckeye]

Hire Harbaugh and give him 5 years.

Harbaugh won't need five years. I'd say he'd get the program turned around 180 degrees in three years.

Understatement of the century from ESPN



http://sports.espn.go.com/ncf/news/story?id=5675695


so Iowa, Wisky, and Ohio State.....seems like a tougher stretch than ND, UCONN, Idiana.....:crazy:

I looked at their schedule earlier, it's pretty funny actually

The 2 games that Michigan really have a chance at getting, Purdue and Penn State are both road trips.

Don't see them beating Wisconsin, Iowa or Illinois even if it's at home, and of course they finish by coming to the Shoe.

They are sure going to have to earn that 6th win.

 

[buckeyemania11]

**My IMO ... U-M should've put up 38 on MSU last weekend, leaving 3 TDs in the quiver ... so they should come roaring back and put up 38 versus Iowa.

scUM could not put up 38 on Uconn or Ntre Ame

and they are going to put up 38 on Iowa?

The Beav is off his rocker

how about the all stellar scUM offense scoring the same amount of points on Sparty that the legendary Florida Atlantic did? I'm sure they are going to score at will on Iowa

 

[buckeyemania11]

not sure if Kelvin Grady's comments have been posted yet

"Coach Rod is building something special right now," Grady said. "At the beginning of the season, we weren't on anybody's radar and no one was talking about us. We started 5-0 and shocked the world. Now, we lost a game and people want to talk.​

well.....you started 4-0 last year and "people were talking" then lost to Michigan State by 6 on the road and the slide began

similar result this year thus far (their "best" wins are Indiana and a 3-3 Ntre Ame team) except +1 win.....and instead of a 6 point road loss to Sparty it was a 17 point home loss to Sparty

Beav continues to show his brilliance by acting like wvu-pitt weren't "blood rivals" and then accidentally reinforcing that dickrod doesn't "get" the scUM-msu rivalry...and of course he continues to fumble around with internet/message board phraseology. "My own IMO".

Tues AM TJBlog: My own IMO

... this may or may not be true ... it's just my own little IMO.

I don't think WVA has a to-the-death blood-rival like U-M has in MSU, so RR didn't grow up with that. Yes Pitt is a WVA rival, but not a to-the-death blood-rival that ruins the whole year for many fans if they lose.

For U-M fans, yes ND is a rival ... and yes, OSU was always The Game ... but MSU is the to-the-death blood-rival ... it's because U-M fans who live instate now have to be humiliated for a whole year by their Spartie neighbors, for the 3rd year in a row ... after being able to smugly consider MSU to be 'little bro' for several years.

I'd venture a guess that U-M fans didn't even realize what a to-the-death blood-rival MSU is, because U-M had been winning more than half for quite a few years.

But U-M fans now realize it if they'd forgotten ... this is a sickening game to lose for instate U-M fans, unlike any other ... especially at home, especially when the game was over for the last 20+ minutes ...

And so for a lot of U-M fans, as we have seen, this one loss DOES wipe out 5 wins ... especially for those who weren't RR-supporters in the first place.

Going back to Bo for a minute ... I came in as a frosh when Bo came in as HC ... as an OSU guy Bo'd experienced U-M as the to-the-death blood-rival, because U-M is OSU's blood-rival ... ... ... but for U-M fans the blood rival is NOT OSU, it's MSU. I didn't think Bo really 'got' that in his first year, and U-M went down to MSU with a good 3-1 record, but they played flat and lost 23-12, a big-score loss for that day-n-age ... I was sitting in Crisler, with thousands of other fans, watching the game on the Big Screen that U-M had set up, I'll never forgot that. I think after that that Bo felt the harsh-vibe consequence of losing to MSU, especially when playing badly.

I don't think WVA has a to-the-death blood-rival like U-M has in MSU ... and so RR, I think, is surprised by the venom coming in his direction right now, even tho he is sitting at 5-1 ... that for many it's like he's 0-1 right now (or even 0-3, three losses to MSU).

For a lot of U-M fans, as we have seen, this one loss DOES wipe out 5 wins ... especially for those who weren't RR-supporters in the first place.

I don't happen to feel a loss to MSU like that ... but I don't live instate either.

Just my IMO. The team of course has to quickly refocus on Iowa ... but for many instate fans this loss will linger with them for a year, and their Spartan neighbors will make sure of it.

Given how much he slurps "rich", obviously he didn't mean for it to come off that way and it drew some responses that I'm sure he found "unsatisfactory" to his "bow at rich's feet or be gone" style...and he quickly goes into damage control-spin mode...

you express the sentiment well that I'm talking about ... it's wrong (of course he "understands it") ... but it's the vibe he's been having to deal with

JerseyBlue wrote: I have been nothing but a 100% Rich Rod backer. But, this one tests my patience. It's year 3. He clearly didn't understand the Michigan culture when he took the job. It was a mistake, but, for me, one that could be easily forgiven. And many aspects of the Michigan culture were anachronistic anyway. But most people didn't forgive him and he's still paying the price. But in year 3, he needs to better understand the culture. He needs to understand that this was a huge game. Maybe he still doesn't have the horses to win it. And that's a hard reality to accept, but it's reality. But there's no more excuse for not understanding/expecting the inevitable backlash.​

****Re: dtp502, I didn't say "realize"****

I said "feel the harsh vibe coming from the fans even tho he's 5-1" ... of course he realized it ... but the harshness this year, my own IMO, has surprised him since he's 5-1

****this is the discinction I was going for in my blog****

dtp502 wrote: This seems a little far-fetched to me Tom. If he doesn't/didn't realize the importance of the MSU game after 2 straight losses to them, and now 3..................I gotta wonder what's going through his head.

Not saying that's the case, I just kind of laugh at those who feel the need to defend RR after this loss. I'm not calling for his head by any means, I just think that the past 2 seasons the performance we have seen against MSU on the field has been sub-par to say the least. And a lot of the responsibility for that lies on the coach.

The thread, of course, disappears before too long. That board is pure comedy.

The AP Poll is completely irrelevant. The only poll that matters right now is the Coach's. Next week it will be the BCS and the Coach's. So by my count we are ranked #24 in the Nation. I will take a coach's opinion of our squad over a journalist any day!

I agree, it's been irrelevant since '97...

 

[Mike80]

I agree, it's been irrelevant since '97...

It was irrelevant then too....

 

[BuckeyeNation27]

we used to not be Michigan's rival because we couldn't beat them. now we're not Michigan's rival because...........well, because Tom Beaver is a fucking idiot.

 

[NFBuck]

It was irrelevant then too....

That's what I meant...

 

[Rich_Rodriguez]

We lost to Michigan State, what, you wanna take me and hang me off the building now?

Brings up Santonio's mention in the SI article and says that it's how tOSU gets recruits scUM can't...more brilliant logic. How does an agent paying somebody have to do with recruiting, retard?

My response:

Posted: Today 11:36 AM
Re: One way other schools get recruits that U-M can't

The author of that article came out and admitted he made a mistake, that it was another Holmes from another school, so nice try. And if you think um kids haven't accepted money from agents in the past, you're delusional. It's beyond the school's control and it's been happening everywhere for a long time, so get off your high horse. And, even so, what does an agent paying random kids already at a school have to do with recruiting?

I'm sure it'll be removed/ignored or I'll be banned...

Re: NAVARE

that's my opinion, yes ... I don't think a good spread O with a good QB can be stopped unless it stops itself or gets too-injured

NAVARE wrote: So in summary Tom you are saying - the only thing that can stop Dennard is Dennard and injury. Correct?​

What about the Rose Bowl, thomas?
