Winning Without Rebounds

Kevin Leach still starting, Obi Ezeh not sulking for Michigan
i think this is the right move and it terrifies me

The Lights Are On
Michigan (0-0) 73, Wayne State 54.
It was an exhibition game against a D-2 team. It's meaningless in the grand scheme of things, and counts toward nothing. Yet it still felt good to be back in Crisler Arena, and perhaps even better to emerge with a win, be it over Duke, Michigan...
Dear Diary: The Inaugural
Rounding up the week's best in user-created content. There's so much good stuff around here that this should become a weekly feature.
[Editor's note: that is the plan for the rest of the season; if/when diaries start to fall off we might make it biweekly.]
Any discussion...

Unverified Voracity Hates Non-Engineers
I… here. This is for you. Is there a thing that makes these things? If there is a thing that makes these things, this is slightly crazy. If there isn't I don't know what you can even say. Other than FTW. It came from the message boards.
This is where we are this week...

MGoPodcast 1.11: The Hangover
Podcast is a bit late and this week… well, it was right after the game and no one was feeling up for it and I can confidently say this is the worst podcast that has ever been recorded. There is some humor value in how much it sounds like we want to die.
As per usual, we talk to...
Purdue Injury Report
Your weekly dose of who's in and out for the weekend's game.
[Press Release]
University of Michigan Football Injury Report
For the Purdue Game (Saturday, Nov. 7)
Out
David Molk (knee)
Martavious Odoms (knee)
Questionable (50 percent chance of playing)
Greg Banks...
Upon Further Review: Offense vs Illinois
Personnel notes: Odoms did not play and was replaced by Roundtree. Patrick Omameh got a series late in the first half, probably because Dorrestein was injured. It sounds like Dorrestein might miss the Purdue game, with Patrick Omameh his likely replacement at RG. Robinson did not play...
Mailbag, Part Deux!
Super mailbag week because the mails, they come in. Side note: I try to be good about answering most of the emails that hit the inbox. This has been untenable over the last week. If you sent something and didn't get a response, try again after the Ohio State game.

Wednesday Presser Notes 11-4
Rich Rodriguez:
Brandon Minor has practiced more this week than he has any other week in more than a month. Hopefully that means he'll be healthy enough on Saturday to play. The team needs the element of downhill running that he provides. Carlos Brown has been limited with tendinitis...
Upon Further Review: Defense vs Illinois
Video note: Unfortunately my computer rebooted itself after applying an "important update" last night, which obliterated a 14-hour process via which I convert the torrent into something clippable. So no video today. I will go back in an add it later, and I'll revisit...

Hello: Carvin Johnson
Right. Michigan gains commitment from defensive back. There was much rejoicing? We'll find out after the informative update.
Unverified Voracity Lets Freedom Ring
Note. In case anyone hadn't noticed, the restrictions implemented Saturday were lifted yesterday, so things should be back to normal. I think it worked out pretty well; there were a number of threads that got deleted but overall things here were way less dumb than elsewhere, thanks...
Mailbag!
Brian,
Not sure if you've addressed this, but what's your take on Brandon Graham vs. Lamar Woodley as seniors? Graham has been putting up Tacopants-esque numbers in UFRs and has to deal with some blatant holding no-calls on a regular basis. I know Woodley was similarly...
