"You are what your record says you are." I think that may be a quote from some where? Harbaugh is a good coach. Or was a good coach. Maybe his staff is just not very good after the loss of Washington and Mattison? Their "problems" are systemic right now.
And Oct 5 Iowa comes to town and will give them fits if not beat them.
And they have a" White Out" game at Ped State in their schedule.
Right now TSUN's schedule looks very challenging for them.

So let me get this straight.... He was playing Fullbacks as nose tackles and nose tackles as fullbacks? (The kid who fumbled the ball on their first possession was reportedly a Nose tackle by trade.) That is some strategic brilliance, let me tell you!!

Michigan had Jordan Glasgow, a 6'1" - 225lb LB (former walk-on at S) lining up with his hand in the dirt opposites Wisconsins guards, who are both about 6'4" 325.

I almost feel bad for Deace. Almost.

Mans face is a factory of sadness and pain right now.

I’ve always liked Deace, well as much as you can like a scUM fan. He was always balanced back when GBW had him on as a guest columnist. In fact, I think he was Booted by the Beav for being too negative towards dickrod. He’s generally pretty level-headed and rarely plays the lame excuse playlist the rest of the DFBIA plays.

I just watched that clip. It is outstanding. OUT fucking Standing. I was laughing ... honest to god belly laughing at his attempts to remain "measured"

I don't feel sorry for the prick, but he's sort of like having a Valenti who is on the inside of scUM fandom.

tOSU went 34 years between National Championships before Tress beat Miami.
The national championship drought was from 1968 to 2002.

In the interim, Ohio State played in de facto national championship games in 1969, 1970, 1972, 1974, 1975, and 1979, and lost all six games.

Ohio State won its bowl games in 1973, 1996, and 1998, none of which turned out to be a national championship game; Ohio State finished #2 each year.

Ohio State had eight top-5 finishes and another five top-10 finishes.

And as Mili pointed out, Ohio State had 15 conference titles during that span.

So that's a lot of relevance during Ohio State's 34-year drought.

On the other hand, Michigan has not played for a national championship since their last (partial) title in 1997. Since then, Michigan has one top-5 finish (#5 in 1999), only four other top-10 finishes, and has finished unranked seven times (including in 2017). They have only four conference titles since 1997, and none since 2004. Michigan has not been a relevant program in two decades.

Now, wait a damn minute. Michigan was Co-B1G-East Division Champions in 2018.

I think they even have a banner.

Ryan Day is ruthless....
I mean, take a step back and remember what happened here.

In year's past, if there was one thing Michigan did OK it was defense. Quite a bit of that luster was wiped away last year, true, but prior to that it's fair to say the D was good, and certainly the strength of their team. It is literally garbage now. It is weakest along the D-Line. Why do we suppose that is? Well, it's because - as has been noted - the two best coaches they had on their roster are now coaching an Ohio State team which has, shall we say, shown signs of improvement over last year's team. I have to give credit where credit is due.... Ryan Day.

You guys remember the recruiting video on signing day where Urban hands the Xbox controller to Day? It seems to me that when Day put the controller down, he picked up a Rambo style combat knife, marched straight to the whore, gutted security, grabbed Washington and Mattison and marched right back home, effectively gutting their entire program.

Actually, IIRC, he was originally a FB who moved to the DL because their depth is so perilously thin. They moved him back to FB and gave him carries because their RB depth is so perilously thin and they had been relying on a true freshman RB who had already been injured all spring.
"You are what your record says you are." I think that may be a quote from some where? Harbaugh is a good coach. Or was a good coach. Maybe his staff is just not very good after the loss of Washington and Mattison? Their "problems" are systemic right now.

Here's a dirty little secret about Jim Harbaugh... he's never been a "great" coach. What he has been good at is orchestrating a quick turnaround. His manic energy has been great for taking talented, but underachieving rosters and whipping them into shape in the short term. It's the sustainment part that eludes him, because he's an intolerable asshole whose act wears thin pretty quickly.

He gets a lot of mileage out of his 4 years at Stanford where, to his credit, he took a dormant program and made them relevant. Couple things there, be did it on the back of a generational talent at qb, who, again, he deserves credit for landing, but he ain't getting that guy now. With each year, that looks more and more like an anomaly.

In SF, he inherited a very talented roster than had underachieved for years. He got them going quickly, but by year three, cracks were appearing and in year four it imploded.

At scUM, he again inherited a pretty talented roster and got them to 10 wins in each of his first two years. By year three, cracks were appearing. In year four, after a good start, they imploded and in year five, things are looking bad.

Simply put, he's very good early on because he can whip people into shape in short order, but after that, he loses his mojo because he's a goofy bastard. Very good at the turnaround, lousy at sustainment.

Well sure. It's easy to point this out now. What were you saying about him since the day he was hired though?

*Listens to producer in earpiece*

Oh.....this exact thing? This exact thing for 5 years? Well why didn't anybody bring this up to Michigan fans? Surely they would have heeded the advice and tempered expectations accordingly.

Narrator: They didnt

Thrice.

scUM Minister of Propaganda, John Ü Bacon, is still whining about the 1974 Game - he claims that Mike Shanktry's final FG attempt was good, but "those refs knew where they were reffing, they were reffing in Columbus that day, and that mattered."


Oh, yes in 1973 they were robbed, in 1974 they were robbed and of course the famous bad spot on JT Barrett. They blame the refs but I know my Dad made a under the table payments to Wayne Duke and Wayne Duke's ghost on each of these occasions to orchestrate their demise. We don't need no stinkin' refs.... :biggrin:
