Remember the Big12 before they got sold off for parts? A lot of guys made a ton of money on bogus loans using the resources of the Big12 as collateral. It couldn't be helped. A lot of kids were taking college on line and AI rendered the football programs irrelevant.

MSU, PSU and OSU went through some similar things as UM has here. If the model for each were applied all at once: MSU: Huge, crippling to the school, payday to Moore. PSU: Beloved institutional role model figure is dragged hard by the scandal. Not sure who that would be for Michigan as Bo has already been dragged by Anderson scandal. Maybe Carl Grapenstein? OSU: Moore elected to congress.

The UM regents are a pretty incestuous bunch considering that one of them buys advertising on the baseball games of the other. Not as crazy as the MSU regents but still.

some guy on 247 that Warde has a good relationship with KDB and that they needed to leverage that. Meanwhile if KDB left Alabama it would be because he was under a constant threat of being fired for very little cause and didn't like the cultural fit. I dunno if that gives KDB any sort of grace period but you'd think that a new AD would have to be KDB approved.

So, the Warde Manual regime is being leveraged to bring in Kalen Deboar. i think Warde's time after that is short.

Listening to the roundtable. No sympathy for Moore to be sure. And Warde Manual is the next head on the chopping block. I'll be shocked if he makes it past today.

The FNC headline there is amusing.

Imagine some [blank] narratives are forming around the disparity of power for those who can spend anything and those who cannot.

Sam Webb take on 247 is very interesting. Very upset. Was aware of rumors but couldn't confirm anything. The spoken truth is that black CFB coaches have bad press for a reason: there have been so many huge failures recently. Now Moore and Tucker are basically the same. Says Kalen Deboar would listen if called.

Seeing on MGOBLOG that there is a regent meeting today to decide Warde Manual's fate. It does not seem to be a good time to mention the political capital that M had to exert to keep out the private equity hooligans. If memory serves their previous AD was a...private equity hooligan who tried to do every stupid thing possible to squeeze the fans and alumni out of their hard earned money for a mediocre product trading on the memories of better days. I hope to all that his good they can somehow keep Larry Ellison and his kids and Dave Portnoy from any part in the decision-making process.

He would have been hanging with David Windsor and his ilk.

Would so love that. Will require a President Newsome or President Shapiro or someone not in the current administration to manifest though.

Not to mention that Sonny Elliot and many other Jewish people you'd know had a tattoo on their forearms.

Our power bills are getting insane from all this. Happy to subsidize your poorly constructed searches ya illiterate jerks.

Please go away Orange Bastard.

That's a classic pie wedge gerrymander of an urban metro... wow.

Remember when your favorite musicians would form supergroups? https://www.yahoo.com/news/articles/trump-prosecutor-jack-smith-launch-235233536.html?guccounter=1&guce_referrer=aHR0cHM6Ly9kcnVkZ2VyZXBvcnQuY29tLw&guce_referrer_sig=AQAAABq2kZljD61pnQNwq1Qu9gamF12DiBiaG3XIns4XjHHrrBt6fiXyiSkD7QoxcyjakhZNyIanTf2Sz50ZvXGA2B-TnXkAgqR5-C1YArhS5iDqkhm6QT0DKINky9XH9C6wPKtepyrAPcgdjLZRVqZaujnkae1heXCV8Rf3fd6ybbvj Its kind of like when Jon Snow and friends met up with the Brotherhood without Banners and set forth to capture a wight. Or maybe its the Travelling Wilburies.

Buncha guys in the last 5 minutes didn't play as well as the guys who destroyed in the first 35 minutes. Villanova must be down as a program because what I saw in those first 35 minutes from Michigan was championship worthy. This was my first real watch of the year. They were at home. They destroyed. Will be interesting to see how this group of mercenaries plays and hope some of them stay until next year so I have some continuity.

I wonder if Twitter is going to make everyone use Times New Roman in its app now

The Trump fam just do not care about anything but themselves.

Unions help.

One thing about the Detroit area is that you never know what is going on from the exterior. I find this to be more the case than other metros i visit. Some very MAGA looking types who have family genetic disposition to the democrat party and some very left-coded looking people who seem to have fallen for the cult.
