If true, they're probably concerned about the safety of anyone associated with tOSU. If JH isn't on the sidelines AA is going to be unstable, win or lose.

Yeah. If I had plans to be at the big hole, I would be canceling them.

 

[NFBuck]

Huh. Weird.

 

[Buckeneye]

Now I know I'm not crazy at least. Because I mentioned several times to this effect on that very same thing in the weekly game thread. Watching their LB's and DB's after Penn State would audible and, much to my surprise, the lack of any checks from the scUM coaches, especially getting the DB's to spin down from their umbrella looks, was SO damn odd.

edit: Nice to see them being outed in this sort of way.

But this was NOT AN ADVANTAGE...

Yep. Penn State's offense is just that incompetent. Their "vaunted" rushing attack is only vaunted against shit defenses. Their YPC against scUM was still better than it was against Ohio State and Iowa though (the 2 other good Ds they faced) Allar is mediocre at best and their WRs are hot garbage who struggle to get open at all against even the most average of DBs.

On offense they can claim "WE WERE PROVING WE COULD WIN JUST BY RUNNING!!!" all they want, but we all know thats complete horse shit. You could tell McCarthy was a completely different QB and quite uncomfortable a lot of the time not knowing exactly what the D was throwing at him. Oline didn't look as great either not knowing exactly when pressures were coming.

They've basically reverted back to pre 2021 scUM. They are gonna run the ball well but passing is a adventure, and their defense is good but it's not ALL WORLD good and can be beat.

Most of it is the prep work, for big TRO hearings you have a litany of filings filed minutes apart from each other and you have to keep on your toes. Lots of research involved that has to be turned around very quickly. So there is a ton of manpower involved in getting to the hearing. Not saying the outcome will change, but they're going to give themselves the best chance they can at winning this thing (still unlikely imo).

They are trying to file an amicus brief for a TRO hearing? That is the first time I have ever heard of that, usually that happens only in appellate proceedings. God, this is going to be a zoo for the court. Now the media coverage requests I totally get and hope its granted. I'm definitely watching if it is available.

Will there be a watch party in Columbus? Might be worth driving up and starting the weekend early.

U-M: 'Shame' if Harbaugh banned for 1,000th win

Staffers said it'd be "an absolute shame" if Jim Harbaugh was still suspended for Michigan's 1,000th win. Said interim coach Sherrone Moore: "That would be his win."

www.espn.com

Michigan says 1,000th win should go to Jim Harbaugh, even if suspended​

- There is a chance that Michigan gets its 1,000th win as a football program if the Wolverines can beat Maryland on the road Saturday. There is also a chance that coach Jim Harbaugh won't be on the sidelines for that game.

Harbaugh is awaiting a court hearing Friday that could determine if he and the university are granted a temporary restraining order that would reverse his three-game suspension from the Big Ten and commissioner Tony Petitti.

"I think it'd be incredibly disappointing [if Harbaugh was suspended Saturday]," defensive line coach Mike Elston said Wednesday. "I believe that of anybody, he's earned this opportunity to be with his team, to be a part of this victory.

"... For him not to be a part of that would be an absolute shame."

Just sayin': Instead of that ↑ they should be worried what an absolute shame it is that a "storied football program" like scUM has to resort to cheating......

On Eleven Warriors message board, @Birm (info on Rivals not X) is quoted as saying to expect a settlement between the Big10 and SCUM that would allow Hairball to coach The Game. Further speculation that Day and Smith are behind the move to let him coach.

I gotta say, if true, they are swinging the biggest balls.

God I hope this is true.

 

[buckeyemania11]

Of course they think this totally helps prove that "nobody knew" what he was doing because theres absolutely no way they coulda been funding him in different ways that of course aren't gonna be on scUMs books.

AP: Stalions Filed No Expense Reports w/Michigan | mgoblog

AP’s Larry Lage did a FOIA request to find any expense reports filed by Connor Stalions, and was told no such reports exist, further demonstrating that no other Michigan staffers or coaches were involved in his scheme:

[BUCKYLE]

We filed a FOIA for all correspondence containing the phrase "criminal conspiracy".

There were no documents.

Boom.

 

[buckeyemania11]

It's really not shocking that Michigan wasn't dumb enough to put Stallions shit on their books. That really means absolutely nothing. The money coulda easily been funneled trough people involved with the school without it being directly tied to the school financially.

 

[Oregonbuck]

I would be researching who has been purchasing a lot of used vacuum cleaners lately

Lol yea, Stallions sketchy at best LLC ventures are a fucking perfect vessel for funneling the money to him

"5k to fix my vacuum and here is another 10 to rent out your house for the weekend."

He was sending out money through Venmo so he could just as easily have been receiving it that way. The DFBIA is just latching onto anything at this point.

On offense, 3 of 4 of Spin Pass' worst games adjusting to the blitz were the last three. Now, you can say the pedsters have a great defense, but the other two were against the two worst teams in the conference. Little bit tougher when your coaches don't know it's a blitz and can't send in the perfect counter play. And one has to wonder if that's the real reason tsun stopped calling pass plays halfway through the second quarter.

If the rumors are true that Day wants Simple Jim on the other sideline, I think that maybe he and Knowles are seeing shit on film that tells them that Sgt. Stallone was the real mastermind behind 2021/2022.
