Yes I realize the comments about having Sparties as friends but when you live in The Mitten is what it is. Had dinner tonight try to avoid any conversation about the game but he brings it up. Ok let's talk. He asked

Himid I see the videos?
Me:Yep.
Him:What do you think?
Me:Not good


Then it's goes bad from there. Wondering what our guys said? Then blamed them for being alone? Then it was Harbaugh's fault for the pass at the end caused it.....

Put down my salad fork and said....Your rite assault with intent to do bodily harm is warranted under those circumstances. He was speechless. Rest of the meal was fine. They are a bunch of weirdos for sure and will defend and deflect this the whole topic. I hope MSP and AP take their time and present a solid case to prosecutors but I believe the prosecutor is one of those crime is not a crime anymore DA so we will see.

I thought there was no way we could run the ball or defend like last season, but we’d make up for it by having a more wide open pass attack that could win some shootouts.

Instead we have just as a good a running game and defense as last year, our wide receivers aren’t near as good as we thought, and by conception our play callers are downright allergic to having us throw the ball downfield.

It vexes me. I am terribly vexed.

And our not throwing the ball downfield at all (until the last 3 minutes) wasn’t exactly what you want to show the 4 top QB recruits in attendance.

Note: the men's and women's tennis teams also competed, but those events were non-scoring so I left them out of the recap this week.

For OSU. They aren't giving UM much chance to win in Columbus.

I like that. Keep us underdogs. After seeing us manhandle PSUs line, I think we can run on OSU again.

I stopped watching GameDay a long time ago. I finally had a Saturday morning free, so turned it on. Won't be making that mistake again.

So I just watched the video of Gemon Green being attacked by the MSU player(s), and they are swinging their helmet at Gemon. Here is the video: Login to view embedded media
That is obviously disgusting, but what I find to be the worst part of this is the MSU staffer who sees this, then runs towards the person filming it as if to try and block them from getting video of this.

So, I took about a minute and looked through the MSU coaching staff. Looks to be Ben Mathers. His title? Director of Football Operations.

Ben MathersDirector of Football Operations

If this is true, and your Director of Football Operations acted this way - not stepping in, and instead running towards the camera- I'd argue this is worse than anything else we saw. This piece of absolute shit needs a lot more than simply being fired.

This is beyond pathetic.

So he is essentially supporting, after bad mouthing a bunch of Michigan college guys on the radio, it is fair game for him to get his ass beat the second he steps out the studio.

I'm sure this retweet will be discussed.

I thought that Comp had hit rock bottom when he had to apologize for posting that MSU players should dive at Devin Gardner's knees a few years back, but I was wrong.

This bit of utter garbage journalism is worse.

Does he honestly believe that Mel Tucker forbids trash talk and Harbaugh encourages it? Does he honestly think that MSU players don't take cheap shots? Is he that dumb or is he just trying to throw some red meat to their fanbase? I'm inclined after reading this to think that he probably is just that dumb...

The security and officers needs to be addressed as well, horrible job of controlling the narrative.

cut for that. Cabana? Stokes?

Some Michigan Buzz. @Josh Henschke What are you hearing?

After the Clark incident happened late Saturday night/Sunday morning 8 years ago, that was actually what was said in an article.

Clark was dismissed Monday (the next day).

We better hear some answers by tomorrow.

After speaking with multiple people, I feel good enough to place a FutureCast prediction in favor of Michigan for 2024 LB Brian Robinson.

He’s visited campus many times in recent months, including yesterday, there’s a strong relationship with Clink and I think the Wolverines are in the drivers seat right now.

It was a good weekend for recruiting buzz in the 2024 recruiting class and we are hearing enough positive buzz coming out of the weekend to place two new FutureCast predictions in favor of Michigan today.


Michigan felt like it could make a move for Hamilton coming into the weekend and the program did just that, jumping out to a lead for Hamilton. His relationship with Sherrone Moore is the key here. It's very strong.

Also, this is the first time I have ever seen something like this, Hamilton acknowledged a prediction to U-M elsewhere via his Twitter account positively.

As for Prieskorn, Michigan also feels like it's in great shape for the in-state tight end and sources around Prieskorn feel the same way, too. Prieskorn is a kid that doesn't speak to the media much so you have to get him in person to get any sense of where things stand. Zach spoke with him recently and he mentioned a strong relationship with Grant Newsome, who has done a great job here. Couple that with the vicinity close to home, I feel comfortable that the Wolverines will ultimately be the choice when he decides.

I don't get the sense either is super close to deciding but, in my opinion, the Wolverines would be the choice if that hypothetical decision were to come today.

Blaming the tunnel is and will continue to be, BS.

He told me today he's offering free counseling for Paul. He said, after 24 months with the spitoons, he's very frightened for his mental state and whether he's been abused. He continued that with the events which happened in the tunnel last evening. There is no guess to asses the PTSD poor Paul most likely endured.🤣

Asking for a friend.

Patterson gives an overall recruiting update covering his visit with Michigan on Rivals:

Hi Josh and company,
I know it’s early but with the amount of recruits and high profile ones last night to say the least. What are our odds of getting a commit here in the very near future? 23/24 doesn’t matter just curious. How did it come off big house experience wise to some of these guys? Hoping we closed on a few.

amazing and confident against PSU. It makes no sense.

I'm legitimately seeing MSU fans defending these players actions. Saying our kids "got lucky" to only walk away with minor injuries.

It's so sad to see there are people in this world that can truly act like that. I can PROMISE you, if it were the other way around, I would be embarrassed about our teams actions.

Life MSU is +9.5 at Illinois (Source: FanDuel).

I'd love to punch him.

Saw them talk about it on Inside Michigan Football (presumably from the post game presser) and I liked the attitude. Obviously glad we won but were both very frank about lots to work on and JJ even said something like he didn’t feel that happy at the moment, unacceptable (paraphrasing). He definitely looked and sounded different than post Iowa, Indiana, Penn State, and his facial expression said he was not happy with performance. Hoping this dissatisfaction helps keep the team’s focus for the big trip to Rutgers.
