I'd like to pause on the absurdity of this truth. People harp on QB, but that's a tough position, and the bar is now sky high (for CFP contenders). But RB? It's by far the easiest position to recruit, develop and find gems. Frankly it's the easiest position to recruit lower rated guys and still get good value. (Master Teague, Carlos Hyde, Antonio Pittman, Boom Herron etc)

Yet Michigan has consistently trotted out bad to mediocre RBs most years. That's really hard to do, especially for what will likely be a 15th year. Devon Smith, Fitz Toussaint, Zach Charbonnet are towards the top end of that stretch of time.

I know it doesn't cover the whole timeline, but... when the RB coach is a nepotism hire that sends letters to people's girlfriend in crayon... I suspect recruiting is a small part of the issue.

So the guys that they're getting have to work to be competent, and they don't have hope? That explains it.

Serious question - because I don't have the masochistic streak it would take to identify all those losers myself - how many of them were on the field in double OT in 2016 when it was actually 4th and 1 with the game on the line? Did any of them actually make the tackle?

It will take a lot of work, but I’m pretty sure we could create a montage of failure for every one of these players. :lol:

Peppers is too easy to resist.

Call me crazy but 4th and goal with the game on the line, I want the ball in Shae Patterson's hands. He's been Mr Fourth Quarter the last couple of years. Gonna miss him once he starts selling real estate.

He's spewing out a series of tweets essentially knob slobbing the rest of the coaching staff. That is the culture up there: telling each other how fucking special they are. And that is why they fail.








And you'll notice I saved the best for last.

Not one future HC among them. But at least one of them has a skrong Yankee Candle game.

I can't speak for others, but those memories are formative. They are the foundation of the reason I follow this thread. Those memories are the reason I look forward to The Game every year more than any other sporting event. Those memories allow me to savor every W all the more and never to take one for granted. Those memories stoke the fire that is the rivalry. At least for me. Those memories aren't wallowing in shame. They help to define purpose. At least as far as a sports rivalry goes.
