You are so pathetic. I WATCHED Harbaugh recruit Andrew Luck over Matt Barkley, “the Nation’s #1” High School QB. He saw the difference. You keep deluding yourself, JV Coach!.
@TJA4Michigan Mid at Stanford his first two seasons if that. 'Lucked' into a generational quarterback that he rode to two straight winning years. Got career years out of Smith and Kap and then huge fall off after he didn't ball out his ass harbs last year.

Hard to believe you could get much dumber. Sure you wore a helmet when you played? Leather?.
@ValuecapMatt @detroitotaku @TJA4Michigan What's yours I'm getting dumber by the minute talking to you and it's wasting my time. And usually trolling Michigan fans is fun but this is really not with you so have a good weekend bro.

Read the rule- to save costs. There is nothing to debate & I agree it is as weak as your Buckeyes the last 4 years. Grow a pair, win a game & we’ll talk.
@TJA4Michigan The “cost-savings” argument is so weak. There are lots of things some programs can’t afford that others can. 100k-seat stadiums, pro-caliber facilities, Urban Meyer. Those things aren’t banned. Why is advanced scouting?. (This isn’t a hard question.).

Then start acting like you learned the game, Rook.
@detroitotaku @countto1011 @ScottWGedris @TJA4Michigan Agreed. Thanks for wasting a minute of my life telling me stuff I already know from playing coaching scouting and being involved with football for 40 plus years now.

You are doing a good job of being or playing stupid. Little wonder you hide in anonymity. Harbaugh inherited a 1-11 Stanford team. You sound like a guy who couldn’t make his Intramural team at State.

Yeah, that 10-3 first (‘15) year was mediocre. And the next was “JT was short” in the Shoe with Speight playing his brains out with a broken collarbone. Terrible start for Harbaugh at UM, dope.
@TJA4Michigan Continued where he left off his last year at San Francisco to be pedestrian at Michigan since he didn't have a generational quarterback or stud seasons from any of his QB's to save him. Then had to turn to Connor to help turn it all around. Don't leave all those parts out.

OSU & MSU have been skunking Michigan since at least the ‘80’s per young coaches from those days. It’s why MSU & OSU trick plays often worked & ours didn’t. They clearly had 👀 on our practices.
@TJA4Michigan OSU never stole signs. They didn’t care about anything Michigan did until Michigan started beating them. Now, it’s just excuses.

Who IS this grga? Why is an anonymous poster even relevant?.
@grja1515 @TJA4Michigan Oh I see, bowl games 1-4 just like Ryan Day vs Michigan… 1-4 🤭.

Proud of what Harbaugh & UM accomplished no matter what you say, “Mr. Hide Behind A Burner Account.” When you become a man & publicly Post we can talk about your points. I typically don’t acknowledge cowards.
@TJA4Michigan Cool story bro. Once again Todd making himself the star of the show saying how important he was in UMs success! Congrats I'm highly impressed!!. Totally neglected my pt tho that Harbs was mid af at UM til Connor started doing what Connor did on the sidelines from '21 on . .

OSU was almost soulless out there as our weakest team in years stuffed the ball down their throats, they knew it was coming, and we kept running through them like they were playing flag football. (Out of respect for women, I did not choose “powder puff”).
@TJA4Michigan I particularly enjoy the 1 net yard for them in the 4th qtr last November, sucking air betwixt plays - at home, with absolutely everything on the line - and couldn’t get Davis and boys off the field. Signs my arse.

You keep leaving stuff out, like, “and sign stealing is legal, a part of the game & has NEVER been banned for ANY competitive reason.” . Only to save costs. If the NCAA cared it would have allowed helmet mics.
@countto1011 @ScottWGedris @TJA4Michigan And sign stealing does matter. Teams wouldn't do it otherwise. And . I've been on the sidelines and I've done it. Football coaches/players aren't rocket scientists nor are their signal sets. If u can crack another teams signals by the 2nd qtr it's a def adv in the 2nd half.

Built programs from the ashes, unlike Urban & Ryan who inherited CFP caliber teams. USD, Stanford, the 49ers & Michigan were all Phoenix’s rising from the ashes. Don’t leave that part out.
@DavidJohn010101 @TJA4Michigan I love numbers got a master's degree in stats and mathematics so I'll play along. Harbaugh vs ranked teams before Connor . 7 - 17. Against Osu 0 - 5 with one too chicken to play. In bowl games 1 - 4. CFP appearances 0. Mid as fuck. Hell that's not even mid.

I was on that Stanford sideline ( a 41 pt. underdog) with our two sons when Tavita Prichard played QB & beat No. 1 USC in the biggest upset in CFB history (I happily say hoping to erase the Appy State stigma).

And a legendary guy named Hucth97 returning the prior year & setting the bar at “Win a Natty” which became the expectation!.
@TJA4Michigan And RBs named Blake and Donovan and a TE named Colston and DL named Kenneth and Grant and DBs named Mikey and Will and OL named Zak, Trevor and Karsen and a WR named Roman and a LB named Junior and many others who made those teams great. Go Blue!.

UM was also being “skunked” under Brown. Scouted, signs deciphered & did nothing to counteract (change after the Offense called a play designed for our defense). Don was stubborn or old school. Killed us. Jim figured it out. A former B10 & NFL HC helped him.
@TJA4Michigan And a real DC. Because Don Brown didn’t cut it. Both Ryan Day and Brown were at Boston College together, and Day knew exactly how to dismantle Brown’s schemes because of it.

Yeah, UM didn’t notice. It had nothing to do with our extraordinary involvement in attracting Harbaugh, just ranked by SI as the 6th Best 21st Century Coach, back to UM, which he & I started discussing in ‘06. Quit imputing your ignorance on others. Jim’s return was “a plan.”.
@DavidJohn010101 @TJA4Michigan These indoctrinated Michigan fans forget that for the first 20 years of the century UM was mid AF . Could barely win a big game and couldn't beat your main rivals. And that incl the first half of Harbaugh not being able to do shit til someone got real active on the sidelines.

Beating the Buckeyes last year, with a mediocre team and 66 yards Passing in a year they went on to win the National Championship (after ours) was a series highlight. Ran. The. Ball. Down. Their. Throats. Washington felt it in the prior year’s National Title Game.
@grja1515 @TJA4Michigan I remember back in 2017 when it was the general consensus. Nobody thought Michigan would beat Ohio State again, and it was widely considered a dead rivalry by every talking head in sports media.

What we needed was a QB. His names was JJ. Pretty obvious to us Football people.
@TJA4Michigan Or Michigan needed Connor to turn around a mid AF program that could barely win any big games and couldnt beat their main rival for almost 20 years.

Signgate explained: Petiti as new B10 Cmish doubled down on UM/Signgate knowing that power in NCAA was up for grabs. He made a bold grab to estab himself to compete w/SEC’s Sankey in new order. His willingness to disrespect his own brand, UM, for power, was most revealing.
College football famously doesn't have one person in charge. And after two decades of realignment and legal battles, the sport is embarking on a new era. @Williams_Justin takes a look at the cast of characters who have or are vying for some control ⤵️.
