Roberts: He was such an early Michigan commit and he already had this social media presence with that big Michigan fan base; had some fans saying, ‘You’re our savior; you’re the next great one.’ It was like a 24/7 press conference you’ve got now with the onset of Twitter. He’d got a blue checkmark.

Yogi Roth: He was one of the first of these kids who really had to deal with the pressure of message boards and social media for the first time.

Shane Morris: It was one of the first years that the Elite 11 got put on ESPN as a TV show. Instagram and Twitter were just becoming a thing. It was different for us, vastly different. You have 20,000 followers on Twitter, thousands of followers on Instagram and you’re 16, 17 years old. It’s a lot.
So here we have another excuse why Michigan can't beat Ohio State or win championships:

1. Bagmen
2. Online classes
3. Referees
4. Scheduling
5. Jim Delany
6. Social media

George Washington Carver, you say?

Hello, my name is Professor Shabazz K. Morton. In 1895, at the Tuskagee Institute in Alabama, a black man named George Washington Carver developed a new method of soul.. soil.. improvement through crop rotation.. to end the South African cultural dependence on cotton alone. As a result, Carver came up with hundreds of industrial uses for the peanut. Sure, industrial uses.

Meanwhile, one night, he’s having a few friends over to his house for dinner. And one of them leans over and says to Dr. Carver, “Excuse me, George? What’s that your putting on your bread?” Carver says, “Oh, that’s nothing but a butter substitute that I made from peanuts. I can’t digest all that animal fat, you know.” So the other fellow tasted it, and he says, “Hmm.. this pastes pretty.. this tastes..” “This tastes pretty good, man. Mind if we take a peek at the recipe?” And Dr. Carver says, “Take a peek? Man, you can have it. Who’s gonna eat butter made out of peanuts? No, I’m working on a method to compress peanuts into phonograph needles.”

So, Professor Carver’s two dinner guests.. ..Edward “Skippy” Williamson and Frederick “Jif” Armstrong – two white men – stole George Washington Carver’s recipe for peanut butter, copyrighted it, and reaped untold fortunes from it. While Dr. Carver died penniless and insane, still trying to play a phonograph record with a peanut.

This has been “Black History Minute”. I’m Professor Shabazz K. Morton. Good night.

I can still see Eddie Murphy trying hard not to lose it while delivering this iconic SNL bit.

Man, looking at this blog post, it is astounding how poorly they've done at the skill positions the last decade.
Decade? The last scUM offensive skill player to be drafted in the first round was Braylon Edwards in 2005.

In the 14 drafts since then, scUM has had only four offensive skill players drafted in the top three rounds. Ohio State had that many in the 2016 draft alone.

Here's the overall comparison from 2006 to 2019:

1st round: Ohio State 6; Michigan 0
2nd round: Ohio State 6; Michigan 2
3rd round: Ohio State 5; Michigan 2
Top 3 rounds: Ohio State 17; Michigan 4

But what about Round 4 and on? Very convenient of you to stop at Rounds 1, 2, and 3.
