I like when a post starts out "This isn't sour grapes, but...."

You talking about this post?
Not sour graprs but Higdon will have more rushing yards for Michigan than Weber will have for Buckeyes. Weber is a good back but Urban wont use him like Harbaugh would. Hooe he has a good time and gains zero yards and goes 0-4 against Michigan :)

Yep, Meyer has no clue on how to use running backs:

2012: Carlos Hyde: 185 carries, 970 yards, 5.2 average, 16 TDs
2013: Carlos Hyde: 208 carries, 1,521 yards, 7.3 average, 15 TDs
2014: Ezekiel Elliott: 273 carries, 1,878 yards, 6.9 average, 18 TDs

I wonder if that poster is aware of the fact that OSU just had a RB finish the season with 1800+ yards. lmao.

I also like the guy who argues being a 3 star from Florida means you're probably better than a 4 star from Michigan.

Unfair! He got three more games to do it... He got to play in the B1G championship, CFP semi-finals and in the CFP championship game... Oh... wait... NM.

8 Reasons You should choose Michigan
1. Dude, your Dad totally coaches here! So does mine! How awesome is that?
2. You can wear your HS Number!!!!!!eleventy
3. Dude, your Dad and my Dad played football here. They both played in the NFL too! How can we lose?
4. We wear addiaos and make a lot of money from the contract with them. I say this to all the recruits because I know that our gear contracts are like really really important.
5. WE LOVE ANCIENT HISTORY!!!!! Did you know that back when a TD was worth 4 points (I know, right?) we won ... like a TON of games?
6. I don't know... I'm sorta running out of things to say. Please choose Michigan
7. Pretty please?
8. Dad coached the NFL also.

I think Mike and others would agree this was certainly was not the finish they were hoping for, despite the fact this was always going to be a small class for UM. Really no way to paint it any other way than that. Urban obviously had longer to hit the ground running but he still got the 2012 class (which in retrospect turned out to be a pretty poor class) into the consensus top 10 class by landing Kyle Dodson, Taylor Decker, Jamal Marcus, Armani Reeves, Cam Williams, Joey O'Connor, Noah Spence, Se'von Pittman, Tommy Schutt, Adolphus Washington and Ricquan Southward all after being hired...and held on to Bri'onte Dunn. Of course looking back, only Decker and Washington from that list of post-Meyer verbals (and to a lesser extent Reeves and Schutt) have lived up to their lofty rankings and/or contributed while at OSU (Spence did have one decent year before that whole mess unraveled). My point is there were a lot of guys in that first class who have already departed for whatever reason or are buried on the depth chart and have been recruited over. That is going to happen when you have a class assembled by two different staffs. You do the best you can to salvage what you can and set your sights on the following year.

The 2016 class will be a very important one for Harbaugh just like the 2013 one was for Meyer. I expect them to bounce back very well. Swenson and Harding are a good start all things considered.
