    This goes with Liney's assumption that the team isn't as tough as in the past. I agree...

    Foote Says Michigan Needs To Recruit From The Ghetto, Blames University For Gibbons

    "I'm scratching my head and saying, 'What is going on?'" Foote said. "Who gave the University of Michigan the authority to say you're better than the police department?"

      Ashamed of myself? You're hilarious. It was a great day for Michigan fans. No less a fan than Sam Webb was gleeful. My hate for osu is greater than my hate for msu. Whatever. Go upstairs and help your mom pick out your clothes for tomorrow's play date.

          The only thing that would make me happy during an OSU/MSU game is if the ground opened up and swallowed both teams entirely.

              Larry Foote hit the nail right on the head.

              Schembechler always looked at a players toughness before he recruited him. Players he recruited may not have been in the ESPN Top 150, but he got tough guys by the bucketload, and made a football team out of them, year after year.

                Peppers is f'ing relentless. It's been a minute since I watched his highlights but that tackle at 5:42 is insane.

                  I hadn't watched that before. He's like a two-way (USC-era) Reggie Bush.

                    Seems like its a chicken/egg question. Did he recruit tough guys, or did he make his players tough guys?

                      I think he recruited guys who showed toughness from the get-go. He practiced his players that way once they got to Michigan. If they weren't doing it already, they had a tough road to hoe at Michigan. He'd have the players hitting in full pads 3-4 days a week. Nobody does that nowadays.

                        I am pretty sure that it is close to impossible to practice the way Bo practiced with all the NCAA Regulations these days.

                            That's exactly who I thought of when I watched that video. This kid is going to be good.

                              No she's the custodial parent. Both parents have legal custody. The father can sign the Big Ten tender offer but not the LOI.

                                Its just a formality. He's going to MSU, but Mama ain't happy about it.
