  1. Some scouts appreciate his dry sense of humor...others find it off -putting
  2. There were performance issues with Swift and Hock...there doesn't seem to be an issue with Goff
  3. Dude on the right is proof that not everyone can wear skinny jeans
  4. Finds open ice and cranks a quick, accurate one timer. Future PP God...
  5. Dang...I"d forgotten how good Lolich was in the early 70's
  6. I.did a little.research..it was Johny Grodzicki...pushed the change up with a...i think...unique grip. Lot of shoulder issues with guys in the Tigers system in the !md to late 70's
  7. IIRC....in the 70's the Tigers had a minor league pitching coach that taught everyone to throw a change up with an unusual grip....maybe that contributed to the arm issues that Rozema Fidrych and Morris all had
  8. In the late 70's the Tigers were viewed as having a really deep prospect pool of young arms. Even after Fidrych flamed out, you had Morris, Petry, Chris, Underwood, Robbins who were all pretty highly thought of. Really only Morris and Petry made it...Right now we seem to have even more young pitching in the system. I'm kinda excited about that
  9. I think if you view a player as 1st round prospect...you draft him in the 1st round. I didn't have a problem with picking Cossa...wouldn't have had a problem with picking Wallstedt. Would not be in favor of trading him at this point unless the offer is really really good
  10. Goalies can take forever to develop...particularly big ones. Jimmy Howard spent several seasons in the minors before making it in Detroit. I think it's way to early to think about pulling the plug on Cossa
  11. Defense did him no favors...buthe seemed to lose focus and got rattled
  12. So I'm not going to learn about a weird secret to lose weight?
  13. That was quick
  14. Anzalone was shot out of a cannon!!
  15. In Toledo...jt might be covered in Fentanyl
  16. There's a number of people in BG that still refer to him as "Urban Liar"
  17. So maybe he's Jeff Kent...not a great fielder, but a good hitter
  18. Waaay back when Urban was coaching my alma mater...BGSU...he was rumored to be a serious candidate for the MSU gig. In the end, they didn't want to roll the dice on a guy with two years in the MAC as his sole head coaching experience, so he baled on us for Utah. When you look at his record...winning huge in three distinctly different regions of the country..he has to be considered one fo the all time great coaches. Who else can make that claim? But..someone with his baggage is exactly hat MSU does NOT need right now. If you want a former BGSU coach...look at Dave Clawson down at Wake Forest. He's basically on a lifetime deal there so he might not be interested, but he's smart, disciplined and recruits extremely well. Another name to consider who might be easier to poach is Colorado OC Sean Lewis. Did well as a HC in the MAC and that Colorado offense looks good
  19. BGSU alum here...please run the score up on us this weekend. Our HC is Scot Loeffler..a former UM assistant under Lloyd Carr. He's entering his 5th year here and has yet to post a winning record...he runs Lloyd's offense from 2000 with a less talented group. I've been hoping he'll get canned since 2021...you guys dropping 70 on us (likely won't happen given the Harbaugh family ties to BG) might expedite that process. The guy to watch on our team is CB Davon Ferguson. Not because he's talented...he has a short fuse and is prone to outbursts on the field. He somehow managed to earn an unsportsmanlike conduct penalty at season standing on the sidelines in street clothes. I predict he does at least one really stupid thing Saturday night
  20. what? No!!!
  21. The public persona of Aaron Rodgers was "horse's ass"...but that is a sad way to see a pretty good QB's career likely end
  22. He added a cutter that...like the rest of his stuff...has a very high spin rate. It seems to have made a world of difference in his arsenal...he's definitely taken a big step forward this year
  23. Go away for a year or two...come back as a HC in the MAC or AAC
