Things of offense: Manliness, shotgun, impeccable timing, and options
Over the last few seasons we've talked a lot in this space about how shotgun formations and the spread are awesome, while anything else will steal your children. This is a myth—all offenses that score points are equal—but you could almost be forgiven for...

Love is in the Air, Apparently
Courtesy Pat Stansik
There's a video making the rounds today, a love ballad of sorts. Actually, not of sorts. It's a pure love ballad. It's a song about Denard Robinson. But, not the kind of love you're thinking. This is a more manly kind of love. Ah, the interwebs.
The Michigan Daily has a little bit of back story on the band and the song's writer.

Denard Robinson now has a love song
2011 was the year of trick shot video. In 2012, the love song (now with a grand total of one!) appears to be the new trend.

"I Love You Denard"
Denard Robinson is a darn good athlete. He's one of the better playmakers in college football. But, if you make him beat you with his arm, you'll be in decent shape and your fanbase will get some chuckles from his errant passes.And while this song by Mind's Eyes was probably (HOPEFULLY) written for chuckles. These guys have taken man love to a whole new level. I'm...

Michigan Football: Fantasy Recap And Outlook
Overview-
Everyone knew 2011 would be an adjustment for Denard Robinson and the Michigan offense. Not only would they be implementing an entirely new coaching staff, but would be totally switching gears from the wide open spread offense to a more conventional pro-style offense. The one constant that most figured would remain was that “Shoelace” would still be the focal...

Buckeyes call Michigan 'that team up north'
In a move he is taking from Woody Hayes’ book, Urban Meyer has wasted little time trying to bring a spark to the Michigan vs Ohio State rivalry. This schedule is posted inside the Woody Hayes Athletic Center and does not address Michigan by name or logo. Hopefully Hoke can come with something just a little bit more creative than this … Continue reading …

Michigan Museday is Just Big Boned, Part II
This is the continuation of last week's glance at the defensive line prospects from the perspective of body size against M linemen of yore at the same age. The point was to try to project what a certain body size and shape becomes and use that to relate the huge DL crop of 2012 to players we're maybe more familiar with.
This came about when I figured tried sorting the BMI...
