OT: I straddle both this site and on3 (go ahead and gif me to death for that softball ;-)...

Just have to credit to the Mods and posters here for being so humble and interacting in a kind, cordial and fun banter.

Anyone else that participates in both sites and disagrees can go run back to on3 and tattletale, lol.

Maize&Blue Review is such a breath of fresh air for Michigan fans.

Thank you @Josh Henschke and your awesome staff!

Recruiting Interesting scenario at DL

Michigan is expecting to host two prospects committed elsewhere on the D-line this weekend.

Quante Gillians, Syracuse commit, is already on campus and Michigan is pushing for a flip. A LOT of optimism a flip can happen here.

Another scenario I’m waiting to see play out is the Wolverines also hosting Cinci DL commit Benny Patterson as well.

The Wolverines are trying to make a strong push here and I cannot rule out a flip scenario here either.

Both guys are kind of under the radar in terms of their rankings and such. You could have two pieces to the line in the interior and exterior in short order if all goes according to plan.

Guess Who?

We haven’t even completed the first season or received the final rankings of the first year of the 12-team playoff regime. But one school is already making proposals for changes.

Eliminate Conference Championship Games

Why play a meaningless exhibition game when both teams are likely to already be in the playoffs? Just begin the first round of playoffs one week earlier.

Procedure For Awarding First Round Byes

The rule whereby conference champions get first round byes in the playoffs is backfiring. Some teams which may get byes could easily include mediocre teams like Miami, SMU, Colorado, Boise State, being awarded byes only because they are conference champions instead of being better teams who deserve to have earned a bye. Under current rules teams could get into the playoffs only because they were conference champions, not because they were voted in by the Playoff Committee.

That rule needs to be changed to require any team getting a first round bye be ranked in the top 10 by the Playoff Committee. If a conference champion is not ranked in the top 10, then that bye should go to the next highest ranked top 10 team that was not a conference champion.
—————-

Take a look at the most recent rankings by the Playoff Committee and guess which school is making these proposals? You get three guesses, and the first two don’t count!
