No way to spin it. Huge failure

Michigan's stupid ass should be offering GOOGLE MONEY. WTF. OLD STUFFY ASS BULLshyt. NOBODY CARES ABOUT WINNING THE RIGHT WAY. THIS WAY IS even LEGAL and NOW THE NEW RIGHT WAY. fukk a challenger, get these recruits PAID.

AT LEAST EMONI BATES COMMITTED TO MY ALMA MATER

YES I'M FRUSTRATED NOW


I get your frustration, i am too, but I think the disconnect is they just ain’t throwing it out there from jump street, throwing 5-6 figures to a kid that hasn’t played a college down seems like a bad business model, true a lot of kids pan out, but a lot don’t, like i said before I’d love for us to rise up, but one it’s July, two we don’t do big numbers, we still going to be alright
It is a colossal fukk up by Harbaugh. This recruiting cycle is embarrassing
My biggest criticism of him, is pick a strategy and stick to it, our money and admin not being on one accord doesn’t help the cause. Obv him vacillating on the nfl may have slowed shyt up, but i believe kids honestly don’t care they recognize it’s a business, i think we just getting outbid
You replace aTm with Oregon and that post was still facts. You wont hear me making excuses. We dropped the ball. Period.
Exactly he went to the highest bidder, the game is the game
shyt aint ideal.. but lets keep it 100...


It's July.


July.
Thank you

I work in finance

Today I had a call about a $200mm syndicated finance deal that had pricing of SOFR +165bps spread.

That pricing is very thin... significantly more thin than we are comfortable with. We will likely proceed and take a haircut on the deal.

The numbers or understanding of them doesn't matter. What does is that this is the pricing the market is demanding for this type of deal.

You can't say "this doesn't work for us" when it works for your competitors. When you make that decision, you are deciding TO LOSE.

the fact that players are choosing PAC 12 schools NOT named USC or UCLA and beating big ten and sec schools head to head is embarrassing. How the fukk do you not sell against the PAC 12 right now with "you're gonna be playing on the RAYCOM network in 2024 against Fresno st and eastern Washington" is another miss

I’m going to leave the finance stuff to you, cuz you that nikka in two time zones, but taking a hair cut on a deal that still nets you money, vs investing in a kid that may not ever start is two different things, I will agree, we have to look at things in perspective to our biggest competitor, but harbaugh can’t convict nor convince the money to spend forward no more than we can, which always goes back to my point I’ll always die on, until nikkas sick and tired of being sick and tired and decide to Be fully committed to football this is it

Did pick up a commit from this guy

Losing out to Oregon isn’t an L like that, they drop checks with the best of them

Because the world knows that in the end Oregon will be alright.

Michigan fans really thought they were getting Moore ? Thought it was clear he was leaving the state .

I love to laugh at Michigan but I’m confused by this …Unless y’all talking about the fact y’all chased him instead of a legacy recruit.

You my guy but breh

SO. SHOULD. MICHIGAN. That is my exact point. They SHOULD BE the best of them. They should be a death star...the fact that somehow they accept being just below that is purely unacceptable.

No argument from me fam, but until they tired of getting they head beat in by that team in Columbus, and watch that team in East Lansing get better and start stealing players and doing better, until they decide they want to be that Death Star, welp, and you would think with last years results it would have them saying ok we like this, let’s do what we have to, to keep it up, they probably got more complacent, if anything

He’s going to have to put some pelts on his wall, Kentucky and Florida instantly puts him in top 3 everything after that is gravy fukk around and knock off Clemson and he’s top 2
