Yea, i have alot of photos with Bo Schembeckler, Desmond Howard, Charles Woodson, Hutch, Long, Jansen..etc,...I stood next to Jake and he made me feel like i was the littlest person on earth. Mike Hart is tiny as hell though. MICHIGAN tackles were huge but with the spread they are not as big anymore. I wanna see Rich Rod succeed at MICHIGAN but i do not think that he has the team that is necessary to be O$U and that is what matters at MICHIGAN. You would really love MICHIGANS weight room. Rich Rod asked for 'some' money for a new weight room and he said about 500 grand in new stuff should be good, well, he got 1.5 million for a new weight room. The problem is that it is going to take time to get his players and for them to buy into the system. Rich is a dick when you first meet him because he just has a cocky ass attitude and he is the antsiest to Coach Carr. Rich Rod does not baby players like coach Carr did in the past but the one thing that scares me about Rich Rod is that he is not that big on academics. I mean he wants every player to graduate but i have been to many colleges and it just seems that the majority that i have been to are complete idiots and i hope that Rich Rod makes players focus on Academics first and foremost. I cannot stand to meet a player and they talk like they have no education at all. Rich Rod helped Noel Devine get into W.V.U. and i saw him play in high school and he was not allowed to play in Dade county....that is because he caused so much trouble and Morgantown, W.V.U. is a great academic institution and how he got in there is beyond me. I just hope Rich recruits men that are into academics and not just complete idiots. Rich Rod is not use to having the luxury of recruiting California, Texas, Ohio and now that he is at MICHIGAN, he has a bigger recruiting budget. The recruits that i have already seen that have committied to us seem to be great young men and even the juniors that have already committed seem to be fine young men and that is what MICHIGAN needs because they are the next generation of "MICHIGAN MEN". GO BLUE!!! THOSE WHO STAY WILL BE CHAMPIONS!!
Such strenuous academics (and the plethora of pro competition) is why BC is not a huge deal in MA. Shit, they were they numbers 8 team in the nation last year, and no one gave a shit because the pats were 16-0, the Celts were killing people and the Sox were on their way to a second title in 4 years.
You talk to a BC athlete and you can tell that education comes first. I hope to God the pats draft Marc Haslick this year. Look at the competition that BC has to face:
Celts - Best team (or second best team depending how you look at it) in the NBA
Bruins - Best team in he NHL
Pats - 11-5 with a freaking backup at QB
Sox - Always tops in the MLB
Number of titles in the last 9 years - 6
