Thoughts on the game!!

I didn’t see the game as I was working but from what I’ve heard, OUCH!

First of all, I think Davis deserves a shot. Neither Warren or Orji are the answer. Orji is a RB and Warren, while has a nice story, is not a Big Ten level QB. If you want to win at least 9 games, they have to start him. Having this much ineptitude will not get it done.

Second, the OL play needs drastic improvement. Not being able to push people off the blocks will not get it done either.

Third, we need to be way better at fundamentals. What made last year’s team special is they did the little things right. This year’s team is just not a good team right now.

This is the first major test for Moore. The next two or three games will say a lot. If they look bad the next two games, then we are in for a long season.

We have to get this turned around really fast. That’s all!

God bless and Go Blue!!!

Recruiting

Will either bring this program up again or be the cause of another long championship drought. The 2023 roster was a very unique one and one that won't be replicated with a national championship result anytime soon. Blake Corum even said if NIL was around when he was a recruit he wouldn't have gone to Michigan.
Michigan's got to start landing several five stars per class & develop them like Alabama, Georgia, osu, and Texas(when they have a coach that knows what he's doing) do.

This year will probably be a rough one but hopefully it wakes up the people in power that don't believe we can automatically develop anybody. We need several five stars & top 100 annually to have sustained elite success.

Arkansas State

Need to see a fire under this team next week. Things need to start clicking, need to win it handily. If we let them hang around and don’t burry them until late in the game like Fresno it’s not gonna be pretty in conference play. I know it’s early in the season, I know there’s a lot of inexperience, but it’s what has to be done.

My biggest fear was this season would be a repeat of 2017

Lose several playmakers on defense, the entire OL, all WRs, and lack clear talent at QB. The one thing that feels even worse than the 2017 season is that the schedule is harder and our head coach isn’t Jim Harbaugh. This is going to be a rough season and if this coaching staff is as junior varsity as they seem right now, a long 2-3 years.
