the fact that this team almost went to the super bowl with kindle vildor as their starting cb says something.

former michigan commit xavier worthy is going to torch a lot of people this year.

boo to you, sir.

right out of the gate? probably not high. by the end of the year? very high.

the in season tourney games were some of the best regular season games last year. there's an incentive to score and keep scoring. its nice to see them try things to make the regular season games actually mean something. sure, if they wanted to do that they would reduce the schedule or reduce rhe number of teams that make the playoffs; however, the nba is a money making enterprise and we know they are not going to reduce the number of games because that will reduce their income. this is a nice experiment.

when mckinstry was cruz's age he had an ops over 800 in AA. the next year he was 880 in AAA. the idea that trei cruz will come to the majors and hit better than mckinstry is fanciful. its baseball so you never know, but....highly highly unlikely.

trei cruz? he's 25 in AA and barely hitting a lick. come on 84...

tennessee was involved in the largest pay for play scandal in history. pruitt got a show cause order and the university got a fine. why? because tennessee sued them. miami has sworn testimony of guys buying hookers and crack. they got nothing. ohio state has sworn testimony of fake jobs and boosters spending thousands on fake jobs. urban meyer covered up domestic abuse. they get nothing.e nothing happens. michigan had one "booster" (he wasnt even a booster) giving kids money (who was also giving kids from other schools money) and the school put themselves on probation and begged forgiveness and the ncaa STILL nailed them to the wall. richrod practiced for 15 minutes extra (which everyone does) and the ncaa put michigan on probation. michigan always gets ****ed no matter what they do. **** the ncaa. michigan should build harbaugh a god damn statue.

going to get tougher in the future without curry, lebron, and durant.

harbaugh is a hero to michigan. he will likely always be. so let them honor him. big deal.

days before the hard salary cap dont count. that's a different world when you could have multiple good players on the team. hendon hooker might be good enough by the middle or end of the year to be "ok enough" to steady the ship for a few games. hey, josh dobbs did ok for a few games last year too (the vikings lost their starter and did not make the playoffs, much less win the super bowl, which is the usual outcome when you lose your starting qb).

my point was more that those lists seem mostly like shots in the dark. a lot of the guys at the top are there - at least initially - because of draft position. like you said, it doesnt really matter.

didnt they just recently have a top 5 system headed by casey mize and spencer torkelson? the tigers farm system has been rated pretty decently for a while, iirc. but that's based more on draft position than anything else, imo.

in the hard salary cap era? lions should be better off than most because of their strong offensive line. however, most teams do not succeed with a backup qb.

"lied."

from all the training camp reports i hear hooker is not ready.

do folks still have hope for Madden?

i think he's a great football coach. was he rah-rah when he took the niners to the super bowl 2 years after they were 5-11 and with alex smith and colin kapernick at qb? whatever he did, it worked. i suspect he'll do it again.

a first, duren and ivey didnt get it done?

you get the good and the bad with harbaugh.
