Don’t care where he went. Just not here stunting the growth of this team with his inaccurate throws and mud duck deep throws that receivers gotta stand and wait on.Pro where? The AAF?

Got home about an hour and a half ago. Watched the game. I'ma give you fellas that didn't follow the team during the offseason, the lowdown. (This is gonna be my last offseason following them religiously if changes haven't come.. and thats still up in the air.)
*Gattis was brought in to rehaul the whole offense. He was apparently given full reigns to run whatever he wants. After game 1, it looks like that may actually be the case. Lets see what happens in crunch time, against a much better team. Lets see if Harbaugh buts out and lets the man do his thing.
*I'm not the biggest fan of Runyan at LT, but the lines built continuity.. so for the sake of that, I hope he gets back ASAP. Hayes (started at LT) and Mayfield (started at RT) are both freshman. Those 2 cant be the starters come conference play. I was a bit unhappy with the overall play of the OLine, until I realized how MTSU went all Don Brown on us and sent the house on damn near 60-70% of our pass plays. Its hard to keep the QB clean with they're sending 6,7, or 8 dudes. With that said.. I think they did ok.
*I guess I'm in the minority.. but I think the offense played fine. They had a couple of drops, but lets chalk that up to jitters. Nico didn't have a single drop all of last year, and he had TWO tonight alone. A couple things.. please scrap that play with both QB's in the game at the same time, only to throw a screen to him. Thats a hell of a way to get your backup QB killed. Secondly, I get that they like Ronnie Bell.. but DAYUM. Homie was the #1 read on A LOT of plays today. One thing that kills me (that we did last year) that seems like we're still gonna do, is run those damn fades in the end zone.. while targeting our shortest receivers while doing so. We've got Nico (6'5) TARIK (6'4) and Cornelius Johnson (6'3) ... but we run them fades with Saintrisil, and Bell. That gets me tight.
*I'm not happy with the defense AT ALL. We're too thin up front, man. We're gonna get run the fukk through. Dwumfour is supposed to be our anchor in the middle along with Carlo Kemp.. but D-four cant stay healthy for shyt. And Kemp is as light as our tight ends it looks like. Thats why I never understand why everyones so happy when reports come back that our interior lineman are thinner and looking better. What the fukk for? We need them to clog the middle. There's zero reason Ben Mason should be playing a majority of the snaps on the D line. I should've known tho. He's legit Harbaugh's favorite player.
I got more, but I got a headache.
Edit: Charbonnet is gonna be a damn beast. I love his game.

Someone paid Aubrey Solomon to leave. I refuse to believe anything else.

Yeah I hate when they throw fades to our short WRs. If it's not to DPJ, Nico, Tarik, and CJ I don't want to see it. Every time we get into the redzone there should 100% alway be a fade thrown to those 3. As for the defense I expect them to take a step back this season. We just don't have the same caliber players on the D Line like we're use to. I did think Ambry Thomas looked good out here. Popped out on the screen. Vincent Gray also looked good especially his open field tackles. Still hope he has the foot speed to keep with other Big 10 WR. Charbonnet runs with power
the 41 yard run was 
especially that juke cut move.

I can’t believe i forgot about this part of the defense. Bro they look SLLLLLOOOOOWWWWWW. I always said we’d miss Devin Bush thebmost.. but DAYUM! James Ross can lay the lumber, but damn he’s slow. Reminds me of Victor Hobson from back in the day. White boy with all the hair.. yea he got some stats.. but I lost count of how many times dude lost contain and took bad angles. Aidan Hutchinson looks slow and sluggish as fukk. Uche looks like he put on too much weight. And lastly.. Shea is gonna kill me. Dude is too nonchalant, and doesn’t give a fukk when he messes up (it seems) Dude don’t protect the ball when he runs. He doesnt protect it in the pocket. And the look on his face, when coach gave Dylan that series, was priceless. Dude literally rolled his eyes. The messed up part is, we’re gonna have to rely on him if we’re gonna make noise this season. I’m no longer optimistic. Too thin on D. I think our offense will only get better, but this is year 4 of Don Browns system. There’s no reason to be so thin and slow.

Student-athlete: Oxymoron? | Michigan Today
This is actually impressive as hell if you think about it. But at the same time.. you're not gonna win many games that matter, running a program, and requiring your student athletes to abide by all of these restrictions and rules like this.
You need as many dogs as possible. And very few will sign up for all that extra studying, homework etc. I mean don't get me wrong, I commend the kids that do.. but.. you know.

Michigan Monday is up. Written by a Buckeye. Every week. It's usually a great write up.. and he didn't disappoint this week. I agree with everything he says.

I was just about to post this, this was good, i looked at the game film of the defense, on mgoblog
I said:
We gotta take better angles
D line in the middle needs to get shored up
Don Brown don’t believe fat meat is greasy, he has to adapt, you had three wr set close to the formation, they are running off that, you had like one defender trying to contain that side initially, they got a little better towards the end, but still we can’t afford for him to adapt the following week,
I hope they know they will see that game plan x3 this week
Pass rush looks good, run defense looks soft

Word is, Dwumfour and Donovan Jeter are a full 'go' this weekend, so thats gonna help clog the middle. Add the 2 freshman to them (5* Christ Hinton and 4* Mazi Smith) and thats decent depth. Add to that Carlo Kemp and Ben Mason. As long as we can clog up the middle, I'm comfortable with letting our LB'ers make plays on the ends.

I’m interested in seeing mazi, heard he’s naturally strong as fukk and pushing nikkas around
