Peace Out!

DeWayne Peace has de-committed from Michigan as of this morning. He wants to play WR rather than CB... Oh and he is from fucking Texas. Kids from Texas hate Michigan and love to screw with us and de-commit at the last possible moment. They also love to get home-sick and just toy with us in general. DeWayne is looking at Kansas, TCU and Colorado State among others. Here is to further recruiting the great state of Texas so we can cry every January.

Dual Threat?

We are ? indeed. Scenario: You can choose only one...

QB A: Can pass effectively.

QB B: Can run effectively.

QB C: Can pass and run effectively.

Universally we would all choose QB C. So why on Earth would QB C go to a system in which he is allowed to optimize only one of his talents? We ask this question because we have seen many (see: nearly all) Dual Threat QBs recently choosing to go to schools that run the pro-style offensive set (ie. drop back and pass). Why is this? If you walked into an interview and were asked if you could multi task with many of your incredible talents would you reply that you were actually more focused on using one? Of course not. We think kids have it in their minds that NFL teams take Pro Style QBs more often than Spread/Option type QBs. This is a fallacy that can be seen here in this comprehensive study:

FINDINGS

Pro =16
Spread = 18

And thusly, Money Man = moron.

Jim Rome, douche.

We were listening to "The Jungle" today and heard Jim Rome talk about the Fiesta Bowl. First he said that Texas didn't do enough in "only closely" beating o$u last night, thus pissing off his Texas listeners. Then he went on to say that o$u was basically dog shit for losing three strait BCS games, thus pissing off his Ohio listeners. Then he had this little gem in regards to o$u:

Sure they beat Michigan, but Michigan isn't Michigan anymore.

First of all, that doesn't even make sense. Michigan is most definitely still Michigan, true story.

Secondly, and we can't emphasise this enough to people, ONE year out of the last THIRTY(!!!) does not make UM a failure. Not to mention, we were ranked pre-season top 5 just two seasons ago! Can you remember 2007? Man, it seem like forever ago, but try as we may we can still grasp what 2007 was like. This garbage about how Michigan has fallen off pisses us off to no end. We were ranked top 5 two seasons ago... also do you know what other teams have had losing season in that time? Florida, USC, OU, Nebraska, ND, Texas, UT, etc...

Thirdly, Jime Rome. Hilarious. We mean, this guy. Legendary. So good. Jungle Legend. ERRRRRRR! is a complete soCal horse jockey with absolutely no business talking about college football unless it starts with U and ends in SC. We bet he has seen zero Michigan games all year. Fin.
