is Michigan's QB and I'm a fan.

People better get used to it. This isn't like getting behind Rich Rod or not. This is a player. He is the QB this year and he is more than likely going to be the QB next year. I have't seen anything from Devin Gardner to prove otherwise. Then he will be gone, so anyone who doesn't like him will eventually get what they want. While he's here, though, we should all hope he does well. I just wish he'd run more!!

Go Blue!
 
Yeah the whole "I'm the fastest qb in college football but I don't take off running when nobody is open" sucks.

WHAT....They are not going to change the QB this year, we are DOOMED. We may only win 4 more games this year with him as the QB . Whatever shall we do!
 
Cool side burns...really brings out the tightness of your mustache.
 
I don't think drawing parallels to Rod is really helping your argument, though I obviously agree with you. Love Denard, deficiencies and all.

I said that it ISN'T like RIchRod. Saying that he IS like RichRod would be drawing a parellel. Right now, Denard is the best QB on the roster. Maybe some fans would like to see Bellomy, but not me. After next season, Denard will be gone. Enjoy him while you can. If you don't like Denard, then you can moan and whine or you can shut your mouth until there is a definitively better QB on the roster or Denard is gone. This isn't something that might happen. It will happen.
 
I agree with Hungry.

Based on what I've seen so far this year, I think we should stick with Denard at QB through the end of his Michigan career. He gives us the best chance to win games. I hate the way they've been putting Gardner in more and more; I think it CLEARLY affects momentum and performance, and is going to affect long run morale.

it's almost an RR move; I would've criticized him for doing the same thing. Actually... it IS an RR move, and I couldn't stand it when he'd switch QBs during games.

Well, so far, bringing Gardner into games in the middle of a series (obviously different than when DRob is dinged) has been a complete fail! Or pretty much a complete fail; I can't remember a single play where something really good happened.

So I agree - it's time to quit fuckin' around, and just keep Denard at the QB position.

As high as my (fan) expectations are for Devin, I would like the coaching staff to pick one QB (obviously Robinson) and keep him in the game. Devin should only see PT when Robinson is hurt or garbage time. So far the coaches have not really taken advantage of any garbage time available.
 
If there are no objections, I will finalize this recommendation to stick with Denard, and forward to Coach Hoke on behalf of the board.

Let's do this quickly before Mich_QB_U shows up...

Go ahead, you want his personal fax number or do you have it?
 
Denard would have been frikken' beastly in 1973. No inference intended. But with that offense and personnel ... it would have been epic.

Yeah.

And I'd be beastly today, too, if I was 9 feet tall and could run a 2.5 hundred.
 
I thought I heard that when devin and denard are in they avg over 10yrds a play?

Didn't work vs iowa though. Didn't really get a chance too.
