Nothing borderline about his brain damage...Harbaugh is borderline brain damaged
I was at the 2022 game, and I remember just being at a total loss for what I was seeing. We were within striking distance into the 4th, but no matter what we did, they had an absolute answer. On offense. On defense. Nothing made sense. At the time, I was firmly in the "Ryan Day choked" camp... but after these revelations, I had a completely different take.
Watching that game through this new lens tells a new story. Donovan Edwards big runs? I get it now. Our offense spinning its wheels? I get it. Them looking like the 85 Bears? Makes sense... Fast forward to the 2022 Playoffs and we almost take out a generationally good Georgia team, while Michigan shits the bed against TCU... I get that too. It is simple math.
I owed Ryan Day an apology...
Great PostBy the way, it's 4675 days since tCun's last legitimate win against tOSU.
In a few years, I'd really like to revisit the NFL careers of the UM players that saw their draft stock soar because they looked like monsters, but turn out to be Stay Puft Marshmallow Men....Everything that happened after 2020 is simple math.
Harbaugh struggled against any "good" teams for fucking 6 years then all of a sudden starts out smarting everyone and becomes a master of in game adjustments and x's & o's? Yea fucking right.
How they've started this year is just proving it anymore. scUM in 2024 looks exactly how you'd expect a team that knew exactly what was coming at them for multiple years and then suddenly lost their book of cheats to look. They are completely lost and have no cohesion as a unit, not to mention all of the boneheaded mistakes they are suddenly making, it's a bitch to actually have to make reads for yourself instead of already knowing what's happening beforehand. I'm gonna guess a good chunk of these guys put in very little actual gameplay recognition type work over the last couple of years because they didn't have to when they were getting exactly what opponents were going to do told to them. Donovan Edwards being the most glaring individual example. The LBs and Safeties especially as units look like a bunch of guys running around like they have no clue what they are doing. Then you have the OL suddenly looking completely awful when that had been the strength of their offense the last 3 years. Go figure it's a lot easier to block the defense when you know exactly what they are coming at you with.
In fact, I'd argue that their coaches specifically prevented them from attempting it. Why have a player "think" what's coming when you actually know what's coming.Everything that happened after 2020 is simple math.

When you look back on those three years, one thing that really stands out is how so many of us just could not explain the success they were having. BP has done an extraordinary job of pegging the goings on within their programs for many, many years. We had them PAINTED. For years. Then they started winning at a level previously unseen within their old, stale, underachieving program. Everything suddenly started coming up roses. Most unexplainable of it all was that it wasn't a slow build; they were an absolute TIRE FIRE in 2020. Their program and the Harbrau-era was on the precipice of total collapse. They didn't make any program shifting changes. They didn't suddenly start recruiting better. They didn't hire new coaches with reputations of totally flipping the fortunes of programs they previously led. Nothing of significance changed. They just suddenly looked like a completely different program and none of us could explain it until last October. Suddenly it all made sense.
Fuck these lowlife scUM rat bastards. They robbed us not only of 3 years of delicious schadenfreude; they robbed us of trophies, awards, and wins. ROBBED is the key word, not a speck of it was earned. I want my pound of flesh.
Meh. They don't give a shit. Those commercials can't be unwatched. Shit, it may make The Game even bigger to advertisers.None of the NCAA's corporate sponsors or their partners in the media are going to want to admit that a whole ass championship in a sport that they promote was completely compromised, even though them vacating 2021 & 2022 basically admits that anyway, i'd bet there are a lot of $$$ forces outside of scUM at play here not wanting the NCAA to strip the 2023 season as well. Is it wrong? fuck yes it is, but sadly it's how it is.
Personally, I have a significantly reduced amount of respect for them as a university, and a hugely reduced amount of respect for their athletic department and their football program.Ohio State - Michigan has long been considered among the greatest rivalries in sports.
All of the rivalries that have been in the same zip code (e.g. Yankees - Red Sox) have one thing in common: both teams grudgingly respect the other.
At least one form of hate is a low form of respect. The lion does not hate the antelope; he hates the hyena. Ohio State does not hate Indiana. We hate Michigan. Like it or not, for most of us that hate carries a grain of respect. Ohio State won't allow just anyone to be called our rival.
There is another form of hate that is not a form of respect. "Despise" is a word that now appears as the number one synonym for "hate" in your thesaurus, and indeed the first definition for "despise" in the dictionary is: to hate. But the original definition of the word "despise" was quite different. A sense of the original definition is preserved in the dictionary's second definition for the word "despise": to ignore in a disrespectful manner.
So while it is correct to say that some of us hate Penn State, it is more correct to say that we despise them.
Penn State is not our rival; they are a despised cult.
This brings us back to Michigan.
Those of us who have souls can no longer hate Michigan the way that we used to. There is not a shred of respect left. Once they have received their comeuppance most of us will transition smoothly to ignoring them in a disrespectful manner. We will despise them. That's a different form of hate; one that does not carry the tiny grain of respect that the old hate did.
I'm not entirely sure that I want to call the Dirtiest Program in America our rival anymore. I am entirely sure that they don't deserve to be called our rival.
The fact that they're now willing to nuke the 21 and 22 seasons and probably send the program into irrelevance if they can cling to their precious 23 season tells me how important it is to strip them of it.
