Visiting Michigan “in the middle of January” and is being recruited by Mike Elston and Jay Harbaugh.

More on my conversation with him tomorrow.

Can new recruits that just signed and are practicing with the team eligible to play in the bowl game or are they just eligible to practice?Can they travel with the team to Arizona?

Check out what he says about OSU beating NW leaving them at 2
"There were high winds and sometimes rain across the Midwest, playing havoc with pass-heavy offenses. The Buckeyes only managed 76 yards passing against Northwestern but scrapped out a 21-7 win."

Now read what he has to say re UM crushing Rutgers as he places them at 4 BEHIND Tennessee ( who he says gave a "decent accounting" vs Georgia but fell up "short" Like. what ??? )

"If you only saw the score of the Michigan-Rutgers game, 52-17, you would probably be surprised to learn that the Wolverines trailed at halftime (game control!)"

I just cant anymore with this guy ! He did answer me on Twitter. Claims he never applied to Michigan and was never interested. Yeah sure. Well we hurt him some how. He NEVER ever misses a chance to rank us as low as possible

We truly are a big family. Sometimes dysfunctional, sometimes we squabble amongst ourselves but at the end of the day, we’re always loyal to one thing in particular, the thing that brings it all home for us.

Michigan.

To my M&BR family, I want to wish you all a VERY Merry Christmas. I hope Santa spoils each and every one of you this year.

Thanks for sticking with us, it truly means the world to me. You are the reason that every day is a dream for me. I am doing what I love. I didn’t realize that this website could help me discover my purpose but here we are.

Forever grateful and appreciative of each and every one of you who read our stories, interact on the boards, have spread the word about us and said a nice thing to myself or my guys. Your words motivate us more than you’ll ever know.

Enjoy the day however you plan on celebrating.

Cheers!

Merry Christmas to all of you wonderful friends here on the M & B Review site. You thankfully bring me such great info on our wolverines, offer advice, sometimes (justifiably) kick my butt, but at the end of the day, it’s all good…all Maize & Blue!

So Mrs. Wolvernole and I want to wish you folks a great Christmas…and yes…embracing our rightful place in the NC after a win Dec. 31st !

As I'm building line charts for the weekend, I put on Home Alone on the TV.

Every year, I watch the same six or seven (or so) Christmas movies leading up to the holiday. And I remember watching It's A Wonderful Life on Christmas Eve growing up; it's a family tradition at the Szilagy Household. I joke that you come from one of two families one that watches A Christmas Story or It's A Wonderful Life...anywho.

It got me thinking. What is the first Christmas movie you remember being drawn to? For me it's Home Alone. I was five when it came out, and the reason why I tried Cheese Pizza instead of Cheese and Pepperoni and is probably the only reason why I prefer plain cheese.

Curious about what answers pop up. Side note: I'm a believer that Die Hard is a Christmas Movie

Mel Kiper has updated his NFL Draft Big Board and 10 Wolverines make the cut.
I have listed each player here, how Kiper ranks them positionally, and historically where that player would be drafted by that ranking. Obviously this is not a perfect science, and Kiper is not perfect, but I am an NFL Draft junkie so I find it interesting.
Some players have declared for the draft or that they are returning, I will designate with Leaving, Staying, Deciding

Does anyone when the football team leaves?
Also are the incoming transfers allow to travel as the early enrollees?
Thanks Mess

This team feels weirdly good?

The schedule looks doable.

I don't love having to play that last game at green bay. They might be in contention with us for the last playoff spot.

I did a simulation the other day (pending a bunch of other game outcomes) that still had us at the #7 spot with two wins and a loss to green bay.

I hope you enjoy a great holiday and enjoy next year!!!

Third base coach had to corral his guys to sing Carmen Ohio after the beatdown!!! LMAO!!

I don’t have your money. It's in Tom's house...and Fred's house.

Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays you misfits. Enjoy the time with your families. Talk soon.

Greatest time of the year. Enjoy your holiday and be ready to watch a TCU ass kicking in a week. We roll to LA to beat whoever shows up. Go Blue and Merry Christmas my blue brothers and sisters.

Bert right now...

The email Warde Manuel released today was the 'first step of many' stemming from the meeting with Santa Ono this week, I'm told. It appears that Manuel and Ono have found a middle ground both are willing to traverse.

I get the sense the tide is turning, slowly but surely.

I'm not linking it, but apparently people are mad at Howard yelling at the refs late in the game?

I guess he was held back by a few of our players and told them to get the (expletive) off me.

The same people who witnessed hubert davis stomping around screaming like an imbecile at the refs and even our players during a possession for a good few minutes.

My only issue with this is I wish he would have been on the refs earlier.

Jordan Brand is cool, but I hope we never agree to a game with a stacked deck for unc ever again.

Howard needs to find a middle ground in how he handles these things. You don't need to be a choir boy, but you can't go from 0 to 100, because even Beilein got practically no slack from refs when this happened a few times.

Currently have my parents in town and I’ve been playing the welcoming host/best son in the land role. Have my sisters coming over this weekend as well. Will be nice to have the gang all here.

4 dogs, my cat and some good people!

Oregon State?!!
