Too bad Western hired .... actually I don't know who their HC is. :patrice:

Anyway too bad they hired dude instead of Drevno. At this rate we may never get rid of him. I know, I know, we're only 3 games in and he can improve, but still it's very frustrating.

Using TEs in the receiving game has always been a staple of the Harbaugh offense, not sure why that's not the case this year. Gentry has been surprisingly good, considering he was recruited as a QB, and the young boys (Eubanks and McKeon) have too, in limited action. Haven't even mention Bunting or Wheatley yet.

Report: Exit Football Drake Harris, Hello Hoops Drake Harris | mgoblog

Michigan wide receiver Drake Harris may soon become Michigan guard Drake Harris, and this has nothing to do with a massive weight gain. A Scout user spotted Harris posting clips playing basketball on his Snapchat a few days ago, and now The Wolverine's Chris Balas is reporting that Harris plans to suit up for John Beilein:

We've heard Michigan redshirt junior wide receiver Drake Harris will be pursuing basketball now ... yes, at Michigan. Head coach John Beilein will take him in a heartbeat if the football coaches approve (we've heard Harris met with the coach yesterday), and we believe they will (and probably already have).

As a recruit at Grand Rapids Christian, Harris initially committed to Michigan State as a two-sport athlete. Basketball, in fact, was his primary focus until his spectacular junior football season, and the recruiting services regarded him as a composite top-100 basketball recruit before he chose the gridiron—at one point Rivals had him ranked as high as #46 overall in the 2014 class. He earned first-team all-state honors on the hardwood as both a sophomore and junior; he didn't play his senior season because he enrolled early at Michigan. ESPN liked his potential when the evaluated him as a junior despite being the low outlier among his basketball rankings:

Strengths:
Drake is smooth scoring wing who is a solid shooter out to 20 feet. He can score from all over the floor: long range, mid-range and he can get to the rim. He has real good size for a 2 guard at his age. Pretty good defender.

Weaknesses:
Drake needs more consistency with his effort. He can disappear at times.

Bottom Line:
Drake is a real up and coming talent in the 2014 class. Drake is a solid athlete and has plenty of upside. When he is assertive he is one of he better scorers in the class. It'll be interesting to see how he progresses.


:pachaha:

And were bringing steven threet back guys. :mjgrin: i see him and his dad all the time in town. Rich fukks.:beli:

This breh just baffles me like its like they asking Speight to bail them out which he isn't that type of QB.We a have TE on the roster who out ran fukking 2 UF DB's for 40+ yard gain he has 2 damn receptions on the year:martin:.Gentry averaging like 20+ yards per reception hardly sees the ball.They just just started implementing McDoom in the offense:snoop:.Wheatley been used mostly as a blocker I don't get it beyond frustrating. Speight hasn't been great this season but they've done nothing to help him at all imo:beli:

Can't imagine that when he hits them usually results in huge chunk plays. Speight is struggling where are the TE waggle plays?Is it because the right side is struggling in blitz pickup more need for TE's to stay&protect?Who knows but we aren't getting paid a million to figure this shyt out Drevino is.All I'm saying is help the QB out throw use Evans on a RB screen for once maybe a waggle play to a TE play every once in a blue moon on 1st down.We did this last year why aren't they utilizing it now?:gucci:

hopefully they open up the offense this week. They did add the WR bubble screens to McDoom and DPJ last week. I personally want to see more 4 and 5 WR sets so that Speight make some quick easy throws.

Maybe some TE usage in the red zone 6'7 Ian Bunting not have 1 ball thrown his way the RZ where we are struggling terribly:martin:.It would help if Speight could actually throw a fade where our WR can make a play on it:gucci::mjlol:.Or Ulizio not get beat on speed rush:trash: big Mike actually pick up a stunt for once:bryan:.Just get the win figure this out during the bye week:hubie:
