What Did We Learn? - Michigan

Look, bro’s, I want the players too is all I’m saying. Wt f not are we not getting them like Texas Tech ? Have you been to Lubbock? I still have nightmares from being in west Texas

Because Texas Tech had a mega-booster donate millions of dollars to buy players.

I’m glad there’s subterfuge for this particular game …

We had a 52 yard Hail Mary. Dylan was sacked ~8 times. They dominated us.

Do you take away their big plays? Or just ours?

So bro you named one. Who else? Like evaluate the history.

You should really stop. He’s one of a couple bright spots.

You should be the one who stops, he needs to stop putting us in a hole when he thinks he's going to play hero and becomes a heel. It's not the first time he has done this and unfortunately will not be the last I bet.

I’m not sure I follow. Buying players is legal now, so we still can’t ?

What decade was that. lol. Why pick them?

Amazing how we haven’t figured that out yet. Build the run game first with a great line and RBs and the passing game will take care of itself

Per chatgpt, we have (since 1972) 53 seasons with 20 seasons with a 1000 rusher and 23 w/out. All of our losing seasons came without a 1000 rusher....Run the ball, win the game.

Because we don't have a mega-donor putting up millions to get a bunch of guys.

Why can Illinois turn it around so quickly and we are still trying to gain some measure of respect??

I actually think Indiana is a better example as their coach made them immediately successful in year 1 and has them rolling in year 2 as well. I look for their coach to be promoted to a blue blood by next year. If Alabama struggles this year they may give Deboer the boot, but Clemson would be another program to look out for.

Allegedly 21 million this year. I just double checked. I was wrong. $28 Million allocated for 2025.

History? I guess I’m on my own here about who has been historically flat out paying players.
We can pay players now too. Let’s fall back on morals tho instead ?

So rude of Teach to not cash out his stocks for us to get a better OT.

On the flip side: we did just this and Pritchett has been a dud so far. Be wary. The portal only has a finite amount of players at certain positions who are legitimately capable of being at this level. And everyone wants them.

Exactly. And LTs are among the highest-pricetags of the group.
