Re:RUMOR MILL: JT Floyd 19 hrs. ago (permalink)

Sorry, losing Floyd would mean nothing at this point. I know, harsh. But he does nothing. Roh? Too slow for a LB and too small for a DE. Sorry, but he's pretty much useless. Not trying to bag on these kids, but they are WAY over their collective heads right now.

By UM's design. It takes a special kind of stupid to look at his frame and conclude he can't play WDE if built properly. But hey, at least he'll be in better shape than those thick big ten DEs who outplay him every saturday. You have to feel for the kid.

That is the chatter about the UM appeal about fostering an atmosphere of compliance. They accepted the other four violations already.

Wouldn't the NCAA ruling "in their favor" actually make it more likely that M*ch*g*n would have to pay DickRod's buyout when he is inevitably shitcanned?

Congratulations! :lol:

Source: Michigan OK with NCAA results

ANN ARBOR, Mich. -- The NCAA has concluded that Michigan coach Rich Rodriguez did not fail to promote an atmosphere of compliance, a previous allegation that the school challenged, a source close to the situation said Wednesday night.
The NCAA will reveal its finding as early as Thursday, the source said. The NCAA will also announce if Michigan's self-imposed penalties for admitted excessive football-related hours and excessive coaches were acceptable.
While the source did not reveal specifics of those findings, the person said the results were "positive news for Michigan football."
The NCAA accused Michigan of five major rules violations related to exceeding practice and workout time in the wake of a Detroit Free Press report last year. The report led to investigations by both the school and the NCAA.
The school accepted responsibility for four of the allegations, but Michigan vigorously challenged a charge that coach Rich Rodriguez failed to promote an atmosphere of compliance with NCAA rules during an August hearing in Seattle.
Michigan announced in May that its self-imposed sanctions included probation for two years and reducing training time by 130 hours over two years -- doubling the amount of time the Wolverines exceeded NCAA rules.
The school also reprimanded seven people, including Rodriguez.

Here's hoping he's promoting an atmosphere of compliance at M*ch*g*n for many years to come! :cheers:

I actually did read that Brandon sent pizzas to the media members outside the all-day hearing in Seattle on that Saturday in August.

at least the ordeal is over and the NCAA isn't going to tag UM with any more sanctions. That's the plus side for a new coach next year, if there is one.

I heard it's a toss up between Brian Kelly and Ty Willingham. My money is on Ty since RR can blame him for the last three years.

I'm looking back through RR's conference wins and as bad as it has been..it is incredible how close it is to being much, much worse. Consider:

Year One (2008)
UM beat Minnesota...and was the better team
UM beat UW...I still don't know how

Year Two (2009)
UM BARELY beat IU....in a game I am sure IU would love to have back

Year Three (2010)
UM BARELY beat IU..in another game I am sure IU coulda, shoulda, woulda

4 wins...and 3 of them were ever so close to going the other way.

That is absurd....even by Indiana or Minnesota standards. Minny fired their coach... yet he managed to win 3 conference games in 2008 and two more in 2009. Brewster had a better record in the B10 than RR and it wasn't good enough for the Golphers.

Think about that.
