Everyone will be closely watching the sideline at Michigan come September, but let’s not forget that the team also has a fresh face in a position other than coach. With Ryan Mallet’s move to Arkansas, the big question on my mind is this: Who will be leading the Wolverines at Quarterback this season?
There are three […]

The Michigan and Rich Rodriguez vs. West Virginia saga is finally over, at least as far as the courts are concerned (fans may have something else to say about it).
For the last several months, West Virginia, where Coach Rodriguez had worked before abruptly moving to take the head coaching position at Michigan, has been […]

Even though I have a deep love for Penn State, which in turn means a deep hatred for Michigan, I will admit that former Michigan coach Bo Schembechler was one of the greatest coached not just in the Big Ten, but in all of college football.
To honor his memory, local Ann Arbor artist […]

Let me preface this post by saying that I hate Michigan AND Ohio State. That’s what happens when you’re a Penn State fan. I do try to remain neutral when I report on these schools because yes, I do think they have or had good programs and players. However, I’d rather cut off my foot […]

Dear Miami Dolphins,
Today, it has come to the attention of the press that you’re now talking about a deal to pick offensive lineman Jake Long from Michigan as first in the draft.
Best idea you’ve had in a long time, Dolphins.
Here’s the thing. I know you need a quarterback. I’m aware that Matt Ryan […]

No one was surprised when Ryan Mallet left Michigan earlier this year after they hired Coach Rich Rodriguez to replace the retiring Coach Lloyd Carr. Mallet’s offensive skills clashed with Rodriguez’s spread offensive style, so he moved on to greener pastures, and rightfully so, considering that playing a more professional quarterback offense will likely […]

It is official - Terrelle Pryor, 2008’s top recruit, has chosen Ohio State. Overall, looking at this from JUST a football standpoint, I think he would have had more opportunity at Michigan, especially since they don’t have a quarterback*. Ohio State had Boeckmen, who they’d be crazy to take off the starting line-up, but some […]

Terrelle Pryor, the number one college football recruit for 2008, has finally made a decision.
Well, almost.
Pryor, along with a few other top recruits, didn’t choose a school on National Signing Day, and his moves have been watched closely every since. Last word was that he was deciding between Oregon, Penn State, Michigan, and Ohio State. […]

Without a good coach, your football team is nothing.
In 2007, we saw some amazing coaching (and some amazingly bad coaching). While the entire coaching staff is important, it is ultimately the head coach that makes the calls on everything. Here’s who I think will be interesting to watching in 2008:
Charlie Weis, Notre Dame
After announcing earlier […]

Ryan Mallet, the pro-style quarterback who played for Michigan last year, left the Big Ten school with Coach Carr. Earlier this year, he announced that he’ll be playing for Arkansas in the future - and then hope that “future” will be 2008. Although transfers are required to sit out for a year, Mallet has applied […]
