;) Sorry to be too cruel. Couldn't resist. Maybe King and Cass have some good potential student managers in this year's crop of student manager recruits.
 
State just offered a former Rutgers commit at RB. And they are combing the Juco ranks for linemen. Looking to close strong.

Some of us could write a dissertation about what has happened on and off the field with UM and MSU since the second Harbaugh was hired.

I think it is as simple as can be, and I don't mean for this to sound little brotherish but it is true.

In college sports, the true blue bloods have a major, major advantage. Michigan never "lost" true blue blood status even in our darkest hours we were just "lost". MSU never gained true blue blood status and they never will.

While Harbaugh and staff deserve a boatload of credit, the reality is that the UM name brand allows for an opportunity for immediate bounce back when down and allows for an unparalleled opportunity to quickly put yourself at a certain level and stay at that level if good hirings and player personnel decisions are made.

That is exactly what has happened...on steroids and very fast.

It will be interesting to see how long MD can survive what is now three true powers within his own conference, rather than only having to fight OSU on and off the field.

Who are the 3 true powers within his own conference?

UM, OSU, and ??

Well, you can be in denial all you want but PSU has turned the corner. They are as much back right now as UM is. Some will be in denial until they prove otherwise next year. Maybe I and some others are wrong but I believe they are back. They are in better position to win 10+ games next year than UM is. Time will tell.
