That would be nice
They at least need to stop the damn shuffling and let some chemistry build. Crazy concept.

Just frustrating the lack of improvement ..That is all on coaching not the players.. I am very fearful that we have really inferior coaches then other teams.. Hope I am wrong.
I understand and my goal is not to say that youth is not a major part of the problem. We all know that it is. It's just frustrating to see other teams in similar situations having much more success. UCLA has two true freshmen starting on the line and their starting RB averages 6 ypc. Their freshman RB averages 4.4 ypc. Auburn is really young and they have three RBs over 450 yards. One has almost hit the 1000 yard mark. He's at 921.
I'm frustrated and I want to see some improvement through the last games of the season.
fitz is not the back he was before his injury, that is clear. He dances way to much. He has to hit the hole hard before he starts acting shifty. Dancing behind the LOS is a recipe for disaster, as we have seen.
At least 50% of the problems fall on the coaching staff and not youth.

Fitz wasn't any good before he got injured last year. He was just an average back.
yeah, I don't think Fitz was ever really that good. And I think the only reason he's playing now over green is because of his pass blocking abilities. Since the line can't block anyone, we need that RB position to be able to block an extra defender. If our line was able to block, just as an average Michigan line would block, I think we'd see a lot more Green in on plays.
What's really kind of scary is to think what our line will be like next year without Lewan and Schofield.

We have to hope that the young guys on the interior drastically improve. If they don't, we are going to be looking at very rough season.
You think Toussaint can pass block?
Hah!
That is what i was going to say byco.
Fitz pass blocks like he's sneaking out for a screen pass every play.
Looking at next years schedule, atleast it's not overly difficult.
I'm glad I don't have season tix, home schedule is a snoozer.

It's @ MSU next year? How can that be right?
Well, according to the coaches he can better than the others.
