Well it seems that the Anti-Rodriguez Regime is smiling! All those “michigan fans and alumni” that claim to love that University are finding a smug sense of satisfaction now that the NCAA has found Michigan guilty of over-working and excessive practice requirements.
Here’s my two cents for anyone that’s interested. The worst thing you can say about this staff is that they work too hard? Â I’ll take that. Lloyd Carr’s players were so soft that they literally told on Rich Rod and Co. Â Yes, if there are requirements, than they need to be followed. I love the fact that we have a coach that wants to use every single second allowed and few more to make this team the absolute best it can be.
Another knock on coach is, that he brings in the wrong kind of player and these guys aren’t characteristically Michigan material. They won’t be saying that when Demar Dorsey is leaving cleat marks up and down sideline after sideline. Lloyd Carr had as many off field occurrences if not more. Marlin Jackson, one of Michigans favorite corners literally punched a kid and that never affected his status or Lloyd’s. Â Kelly Baraka saw a very prominent career go,”up in smoke.” Let’s not even mention the acts of Larry Harrison, as well as others. Â People had no trouble dismissing these actions. Now if a kid has any questionable traits whatsoever its a knock on the program. I choose to base my judgements on what they do once they’re enrolled.
The absolute bottom line is, this team is still playing in the Big House every Saturday, running out of the same tunnel, wearing the most recognizable helmets in the country, and representing the city of Ann Arbor as well as its University.
There are going to be people that love to watch us fall from grace. You can’t fall if you weren’t at the top to begin with. Â So when people say how about your Wolverines, turn to them smile and say enjoy your time now because at some point WE WILL BE BACK ON TOP and they can resume hating on us from the back of the line!

I was so sick of Carr’s lazy attitude. It was more like a coffee club. I watched Boren pay for OSU and he was even slower than when he was with the Wolverines. Granted the team had some great players but when they went to the Rose Bowl was if Carr had forgot football basics and he let USC win.
To be on this team you have to work hard to play and that is fair. These guys are getting a free ride when other students go into great debit for that education. Only a few whiners/haters for the Carr regime made those statements. If anyone thinks every team only practices within the NCAA guidelines they are mistaken.
AGREE WITH THE WRITER 100%. HOPE DEMAR DORSEY MAKES IT BIG AT MICHIGAN AND JAMS IT DOWN EVERYONE’S THROAT WHO DOESN’T BELIEVE IN A TEENAGER GETTING A SECOND CHANCE AFTER MAKING A MISTAKE. GO BLUE
So true. He has not committed a single transgression in CFB
Plus the greatest haters and rumor spreaders are the reporters of the Detroit Freee Press. They love MSU and show it
