Is Anything New Happening With Our National Champion Wolverines Football Team?

[tinselwolverine]

I’m asking because the quagmire that this board has become has led me to look for Michigan info in the greater media, as opposed to our own little corner of the interverse.

Maybe like Cam implied, I’m too stupid to figure the new format out.

So what’s going on with Michigan football?

Maybe I gotta turn to Brian, or whatever the fuck website that is.

I haven't heard a thing. Not recruiting well at this point..

Now how fucking dumb is this? “Similar threads” populate under this thread that go back to 2016 - one of them literally is about changing the verses of the national anthem - seriously?

Wait – what does that mean? Have you not heard a thing? Or have you heard that recruiting is not going well? Both things cannot be true.

They can be both true.. I haven't heard the recruiting was going well so it must not have. Plus they mentioned a bunch of schools doing well including some BIG teams and Michigan wasn't one of them. So by subtraction they're not doing well.

I ain't heard nothing about no Wolverines Football. But I haven't been paying no attention neither. A quick check on Rivals says that Michigan is #37, with only 6 commits for 2025. But with the present state of CFB, NIL, SOL, and WTH ... who knows anything about college football anymore, except that it's a racket that makes the Gambino Crime Family seem like the Salvation Army?

Reverting back to vBulletin isn't possible, but if there's anything I can change to liven up the place, let me know. I see the lack of community activity as well, and we're about to be at the slowest period of sports, when there's only baseball on.

Saw a bowl prediction thread that had ND and PSU making the playoffs with uofm missing out by a couple spots. It’s not totally unreasonable to think uofm may not make it but putting those 2 teams ahead of the seems pretty outrageous. No respect.

This site uses cheap Canadian AI, don’t expect too much.

What? 0.o

We don't use AI, the only thing that is robotic is our Lions news feed over in Press Releases, and that's not AI, it's a RSS feed automatically pulling content from a Lions blog. I'm also not Canadian, so if I used AI, it would be American.

I think the same guy that just posted the bowl prediction thread where uofm misses the playoff also just ranked Moore 17th among B1G head coaches. I lost track of how many teams are in the B1G but I think that would put him deep into the bottom half.

I like to throw in a joke about Canadians every now and then. I didn't mean to insinuate you were Canadian - no offense meant.

I have three Canadian friends. For the record.

I have several as well and they all enjoy my favorite Canadian joke of all time...

Why do Canadians do it doggy style....?

So they can both watch the hockey game.

One of my Canadian friends and I are merciless with the international banter. We could sue each other for millions. I learned that when you go to Canada and order a beer you say "I'll have a Blue," or "I'll have a Golden," never a "Labatt's" or a "Molson."

You instantly identify yourself as am American, as if they can't tell anyway. We might as well be wearing one of these:

Wear it with pride! I tell my Canadian friends the funniest thing about Canadians joking about Americans is they think they have any business making fun of other countries.

this is new...well, old news but updated.

New Michigan head coach Sherrone Moore is one of seven members from the 2023 football program accused of violating NCAA rules in a draft of the NCAA's notice of allegations obtained by ESPN.

The draft, which could be subject to change, states Moore could face a show-cause penalty and possibly a suspension for allegedly deleting a thread of 52 text messages with former Michigan staffer Connor Stalions in October 2023 on the same day that media reports revealed Stalions was leading an effort to capture the playcalling signals of future opponents.

The draft states that the texts were later recovered via "device imaging" and Moore "subsequently produced them to enforcement staff." Moore is accused of committing a Level 2 violation, according to the draft.

 

[Spartanmack]

So it turns out Sherrone Moore is likely as big a scumbag as Jim Harbaugh. The idea that this was being spearheaded and run by a low level staffer is now obviously false. It was already obviously false to me as I pointed out right away there's no way a guy making Stalions's salary had the resources to pull any of this off.

It's now clear virtually every level of uofm's staff was involved in the sign stealing program. And they all threw a low level staffer under the bus and let him take the fall ending his career to protect theirs. I guess that's what people mean when they say guys like Harbaugh and Moore are "Michigan Men" - slimeballs with no integrity...
