2010 TSUN offseason arguments & shenanigans

[BB73]

I had to look up both Demens and Moundros to be reminded of who they are.

Moundros has actually been playing for the past two seasons - as a fullback. I sure hope Ezeh can find a way to keep his job.

Moundros was one of the 3 players RRod took to Chicago last week for the Big Ten Kickoff. He's a team leader.

(The other 2 in Chicago were Woolfolk and Schilling).

D-Rob isn't suited to be a LB anyway.

Or... maybe he is...

who the fuck knows.

I think he's more of a spinner.

 

[BuckeyeNation27]

Lazy, wasn't that good anyway, opens spot for pending monster recruiting class, couldn't cut the Harvard of the West academics (shockingly enough for a kid that had trouble graduating HS).

Does that about cover the feedback from up north?

c&p from another website:

An overweight, unmotivated, disgruntled JT Turner leaving doesn't make our secondary any worse than it was yesterday.

Rich Rod clearly took a shot at Turner in his opening presser, and watching the brief video he was thrown around like a ragdoll by Roundtree (I believe).

Disappointing news, he was a recruit that I was thrilled to get out of Ohio, but it doesn't sound like it was going to work out with what has come out today.

Good luck to him in the future.

he was a recruit that I was thrilled to get out of Ohio,

This is what I don't understand.

They were thrilled with Turner, but easily changed their minds when they needed to.

They were thrilled with Boren, but changed their minds and turned on him like dogs.

They were thrilled with Mallet, Cissoko, and any number of others - but were able to quickly change their minds when the time came.


Yet they wont change their minds about RR. And the time has come and gone.

It's not that hard to understand: they're paying RR. Have you ever bought a Yugo and tried to convince yourself that it's a gold plated solid platinum Bugatti?

Why would you gold plate platinum???? But I agree.

The ladies, that's why.

Bugattis need/want grillz too.

 

[Tlangs]

i have to admit, a small part of me wants JT to accept Turner as a transfer and turn him into an all american first round draft pick.

FIFY and the fix would be some funny shit.

UM fans on GBW are always incensed at the silly, harmless violations about practicing too much and the RR witchhunt from the media over it. So naturally they react this way about once every day or two when a similar axe could be grinded against Sparty:

Gholston wearing more than a helmet???

Looks to be some sort of chest padding to me.

Photos: Michigan State football media day

It's quite obvious that those are the fancy new compression shirts with padding built in, and not actual pads (what shoulder pads are 1-2 inches thick?).

When did their practices start?

No one engages in my hyperbole about the frivolity and unfair approach to RR's violations, yet is almost always among the first to squeal for the start of a crusade against others over the same topic.

It's from their media day, which was yeasterday I believe. I linked the article as well.

Yes, he definitely has padding underneath his jersey. Ah hah, Dantonio - caught!

Yep, and they started practice on Monday, so that was within the first 2 days of practice. Looks like a clear-cut NCAA violation to me. Who's going to report it? It would be hilarious to see THEM and St. D*****tonio investigated

I swear some of you don't get it. Everybody can sh** on us for technical rules violations, but we shouldn't care about what anybody else does?

Who cares. There obviously not shoulder pads. Maybe he has a bad shoulder and needs the protection? I used something similar when I dislocated my shoulder. Could be a precautionary pad.

Like usual, when someone dares to go against the frothing mob, they are met with such understanding and intelligent rebuttals.

And yes- I'm so sick of Michigan getting dinged for petty crap someone please turn in MSU for this secondary violation!!

Looks like Greg Jones is wearing padding as well

Why not I'll be that guy

from my email - yes I hate Sparty that much.

Subject: Possible Violation

Ma'am,

I do not know if this is the correct place to identify a possible violation. But in viewing the Michigan State Spartan Media day article posted by MLive.com, Joel Hawksley | The Grand Rapids Press; entitled Photos: Michigan State football media day, dated (Published: Wednesday, August 11, 2010, 1:30 AM Updated: Wednesday, August 11, 2010, 1:40 AM). It appears that Freshman player #2 William Gholston according to the University's 2010 football roster (http://www.msuspartans.com/sports/m-footbl/mtt/ms u-m-footbl-mtt.html) is wearing protective padding underneath his jersey
(http://photos.mlive.com/grandrapidspress/2010/08/ michigan_state_football_media_6.html). According to the article and photo dates and the University's football schedule this would have taken place on the second day of Fall camp and wearing such apparatus is a violation of rule 17.9.2.3 sub-section 'd' of the NCAA Manual which states:

"During the first two days of the acclimatization period, helmets shall be the only piece of protective equipment student-athletes may wear."

Thank you for your assistance.

SKWD is their most active contributor for GBW, he's their Buckskin86.

You know this is actually quite funny.. Yesterday I belive I read on ESPN WVU was being investigated again for wearing more than helmets.

greg jones = beer gutt

wow they look awful. jones "bulked up" in his stomach more than anything i'd say. fat slobs.

And there's the barwis obsession shining through. You can't have a thread about MSU or OSU without fat slob comments.

Hey SKWD, you're the best, dude! Let us know if you get a response!

I could care less is Vernon Gholston is wearing a little bit of padding on his chest. There not shoulder pads nor are they hitting in practice. Again, I could really care less about Michigan state or if one of their players has a half inch pad on .

Then.......... BE GONE!

Does not matter what the reason is it is a violation of ncaa regs.

Well Miller I do...and Vernon was at OSU

Uhhh hello. Are you guys serious??? Its the underarmour gear. The stuff they sell at dicks and online. I have them for basketball. They make it for all parts of the body. McDavid makes them too. They aren't football pads. I'm more worried about improving this team than mspoos underwear.

You'd think people would start getting the point, but no

Thanks!

POST OF THE DAY!

in response to skwd's insecure report.

I could care less if he's wearing his Grandma's bra w/ a prosthetic breast in it, if its padding its padding, and better yet if I can get Sparty some love and attention - well then let me spread the love. They could very well come back and say its allowed or a non-situation.

Grammar and reading comprehension are not his strong suits.

LOLLL. Squid you're a machine today and I for one approve this message.

Those thigh pads are actually built into the girdle. willing to bet most girdles nowadays are made that way.

Congratulations GBW, you've fostered quite an environment of stupidity, insecurity and finger pointing. They've learned from the best.

 

[Buckeneye]

At the onset, this isn't a major problem if he leaves....but it is major overall

Son of Doucher has spoken. This isn't a major "problem" But somehow ends up being major overall? - Well put sir.


Kudos to DR calling out his own players in a public address, that's a man of true integrity I'd love to play for myself

 

[Tonyank]

i have to admit, a small part of me wants JT to accept Turner as a transfer and turn him into an all american first round draft pick.

THIS!!!!!!!!!!!

 

[Oh8ch]

Hold on a minute. I have it on good authority that some of the UM players were wearing pads the very first day of practice.

They might even have been Maxi's.
