Injuries will limit Michigan spring football game, more practice notes.

Injuries will limit Michigan spring football game, more practice notes - AnnArbor.com

Notable quotes:

"“What I’d like to do, and I’m sure the players and the fans would like to do, is have a full two teams that go after each other and keep score and all that,” Rodriguez said. “I don’t think we were going to be able to do that anyway, simply because of a lack of numbers at certain positions. But I do think we’ll be able to do that in the future.”

Rodriguez said Tuesday safeties Vladimir Emilien and Jared Van Slyke, receiver Je’Ron Stokes and defensive end Anthony LaLota all suffered minor injuries last week.

Several other players are out for the spring or limited to no-contact drills as they recover from offseason surgeries, including center David Molk, defensive tackle Mike Martin, receiver Junior Hemingway and running back Vincent Smith."

-WTF is up with scUM's S&C off season program? EIGHT players?

-Future? This is year three buddy. You might not get a year 4.

Lawsuit #3 filed against Rich

Tuscaloosa lawsuit targets Michigan Coach Rich Rodriguez

TUSCALOOSA | Embattled University of Michigan football coach Rich Rodriguez has been served papers as a defendant in a nearly $1 million lawsuit filed in Tuscaloosa Court last month for breach of contract, The Tuscaloosa News has learned.

Rodriguez was named as one of several defendants in the lawsuit that claims that The Legends of Tuscaloosa, LLC., which was formed to develop The Legends of Tuscaloosa condominiums, failed to repay a loan for the project. The complaint, filed by the West Columbia Trading Company, seeks more than $995,000 on a loan of $1 million, with the balance continuing to compound interest.
....

The legal action against Rodriguez in Tuscaloosa is similar to that of a separate suit filed last year, in which a condo project in Blacksburg, Va., also resulted in a bad loan claim. In that suit, Nexity Bank of Birmingham sued Rodriguez and others for over $4 million as guarantors for financing on The Legends of Blacksburg, which was proposed as an 80-unit community near Virginia Tech's Lane Stadium.

I can see where the problem lay - there really aren't any Legendary things or people connected with Blacksburg (unless you want to count Henry Lee Lucas), and barring Bear Bryant none remotely relevant to Tuscaloosa.

(Notable not being the same as legendary).

I still say this is like watching a reality show or an old sitcom.

The biggest snobs in the country club have to hand over the family business to the kid rock wannabe from the local trailer park that knocked up their daughter because their only son was a fucking retard.

We get the joy of watching the old blue bloods down at the club spinning ever escalating yarns of self delusional bullshit as their redneck, dead beat dumb fuck of a son in law's hilarious misadventures pile up.

:slappy:This shit just gets better, and better, and better!!

Let's see here, this guy had:

scUM pay for a part of his breech of contract penalty;
shredded "player workout records" while departing his Alma Mater with torches being thrown at the back of the moving van;
brought a storied, and deeply traditional, premier (I just puked in my mouth a bit) college football program to the depths of despair and tied cinder blocks to its feet;
been personally a subject of an NCAA violation investigation at scUM;
potentially defrauded two sets (and maybe more) of people and is being sued because of it.

Way to go Dick!!! You are a true blue M*ch*g*n man!!

I'd say 90+% of this board were firmly of the opinion RR would not be a good fit at scUM. I'd also say 0% of the board thought it would go this bad.

I never for the life of me could understand why in the hell people slowed down while driving to look at an accident. Then Notre Dame hired Charlie Weis and scUM hired Rich Rodriguez. Now I get it.
