2022 Michigan Football

[RandyMarsh]

As expected I turn on Afternoon Sparty radio with Valenti and were not talking about the Lions play since they're playing well, or Michigan's matchup in the playoffs nope of course its the Mazi Smith thing. 

Its killing him and fellow UM/Lions hater Rico Beard that UM and the Lions are looking good so they got to highlight the one negative thing they could find about them.

He was barking yesterday about the hypocrisy of UM taking a hard line on who they let in via transfer when they  have no problem playing a guy facing a felony charge.

just not listenable.

I thought it was quite ironic that he lamented about the media not covering the story.

Sir. You are the media.

I lasted two minutes before I turned the station. It’s just inflammatory nonsense.

[Hongbit]

Wouldn’t it just have been easier to suspend him for 1 meaningless game either right after it happened or the B10 championship game after it came public.   That would seem to be better leadership  and public relations for all involved.   This seems to be par for the course with Warde.

He talked about it quite a bit and is still talking about it.  He’s referring to the local print and TV media as well as ESPN who he feels hammers MSU but gives UM a free pass.

I think it warrants a 1-game regular season suspension.

He should have been suspended.   Did you really need him vs. Indiana?     Speeding.  Loaded gun with no CPL and ammo in his pockets driving 50 on a residential street.   They did ask the question today and I think it's fair   "Where exactly were you going and why did you need a gun for it?     This isn't typical college student behavior  (Yeah, I know, they're really employees).

No punishment for breaking the law as long as it can be pleaded down to a misdemeanor.   Interesting precedent being set in Schembechler Hall.    Warde Manuel is starting to resemble the AD version of Urban Meyer.

How do you get so bent out of shape over their OOC schedule but don’t care when they pull some Ohio State stuff regarding players breaking team rules.

if we had one of those.......

If M can do it again against Ohio State, we all might be in for a very interesting 2023 B1G Championship game.

michigan is pulling in some quality transfers in the portal.  is it possible that they are finally adapting to the new recruiting world?

hope so, because their recruiting class this year is terrible right now.

The Nebraska kid's transfer is a real revelation in this regard.  He's not working on his post-doctorate (yet), he's very talented but you'd imagine that FR transfer credits from a tier 2 B1G academic school are not equiv to Michigan credits (I can say that, right?  Nebraska does not academically equal Northwestern/Wisconsin or Purdue i'd assess).

Do we know why he left?

I don’t think it was any one thing. It seems like it had a little to do with how Cade was treated (they were friends) and a little (possibly a lot) to do with his injury and how the UM medical staff handled it. This is a tweet from his father, quoting (a reporter who quotes) All’s private doctor.

FWIW, it seems that All is refusing to (and/or wouldn’t be able to) allow UM doctors to respond. Which is his right, and I wouldn’t encourage him to do any different. (Though I would encourage him to stop talking about Michigan and let his game at Iowa do the talking)… Just taking it all with a grain of salt because who knows what the other side of the story is. Michigan Medicine is not substandard.

Having an SO that did 30 yr there, I can say my impression is that the overall tenor of the place is an advanced but still conservative practice attitude. Yes it is a great medical research institution at the cutting edge, but patients with everyday issues are not viewed as potential experimental subjects.

Michigan Medicine is at such a high standard that their doctors should not be questioned is the same mindset that allowed Dr. Anderson to operate for more than 4 decades.
