2013 TSUN shenanigans and arguments

Touisaint is not coming back 100%. He wasn't anything to brag about last year anyways. If he is their starting RB they are in trouble. They moved Norfleet to slot WR. The rest of their RB's are garbage or true freshmen.

Derrick Green was supposed to the 2nd coming of Earl Campbell. If he came in out of shape that's bad news for them. He is a grinder anyways. This says more about his attitude than anything. I am feeling much better about us taking EZE. Many believe Green was maxed out physically anyways. If he is not at least 2nd string this hurts Michigan because many in their fan base thought he was coming in and dominating from day.

Couple the RB problems with the replacement of the entire interior OL... a new OC. This spells trouble for Michigan. Once again they do not have Denard to save them with quick strike TD's like he did versus Air Force twice...which won the game for them.

If I were teams I would force Michigan to throw the ball. If Gardner runs pop him as hard as possible. If they have to rely on Gardner running the ball he will not make it through the season.

Huge blow for Michigan...I feel even better about my 8-5 prediction for their season. Gardner goes down all bets are off...disaster.

Green played his senior year at 225 in one article he stated and rival has him at 220. Not one person questions this guys work ethic. He needs to cut ten pounds but it is now being reported that he came in yolked with no fat on him. Green was the number one running back in the country. Alabama had Two running backs come in at over 240 pounds just today. With the highly touted Henry being 240 just like Green. I feel these freshman put on creatine weight thinking they need to be huge for the coaches to see they can take the pounding with these pro style teams and in all honesty it's just not like that.

Both Michigans tackles are back and we put Kali's at guard which is such a huge upgrade, future replacement BRaden at the opposite guard beside lewan, and center the number one center in last years class Kugler will be too small, so center will be an issue but have to hope Miller can be better as a sophomore than a [Mark May]ty mealer. The passing game will hold up, Michigan Is way more worried about pushing defensive linemen back on there inside running game. It would be nice if they can have Denard back at running back, so we will see what Deveon smith, Green and Toussaint can do back there. Norfleet is still seeing some snaps at tailback though minimal. Most likely 3 to 5 a game and slot for him.

Lol. Michigans offensive line will be a lot better than last years. Upgrading at the guard position and getting both guys back at tackle. Center is a question mark but with lots more potential in Miller than in last years Mealer who graduated. And running backs is a huge question mark but one that might have a lot of potential by end of season.

Ohio state was right in getting Ezekiel rather than Green. He fits the Buckeyes system 100 percent more and it was always obvious.

Both Michigan and Osu run different style systems and the personnel being recruited most likely will not be the same anymore but both still at very high levels.

Better?

Derrick Henry is six-fucking-four and broke the national career rushing record that stood for 60 years. His bona fides are not the issue here, dude.

Green is the #1 RB in the country by who? Allen Triue (sp)??? Alabama coaches and fanbase are not expecting Henry to be the 2nd coming of Earl Campbell and carry them through the season. All we have heard about is Green this and Green that...those rankings don't mean jack. He weighs a lot more than 223 in the video from your practice. GREEN GREEN GREEN GREEN GREEN...

Heck you could ask a Michigan fan who will replace the starting Center from last year and they will tell you it doesn't matter because they have Derrick Green...ask them who will replace Denard...they will tell you don't worry we have Green. Well Green showed up looking like Kool-Aid to your camp buddy.

BTW Norfleet has been moved to WR...gosh you Michigan fans really know your team:!
