    Thanks for the TV info! It totally slipped my mind. I'll be watching for sure!

    NCAA Basketball Season

    From what I've read today on Patterson I would not be surpised if Michigan gets their foot in the door as well because of Beilein. If you say he is kind of dragging his feet that can only help U-M.

    Wow I cheer for OSU twice this year, and both times they lose to Florida. Maybe I should cheer for OSU when they play Michigan next year (: I just can't stand FLA. Have to give them props for repeating, but it's hard when Noah is such a piece of white trash.

    Is Patrick Patterson a 5 star PF from WV???

    According to Rival insiders John Beilein is U-M's new head coach. Should come out tommorow

    This is crazy! If players hated him you would think they would have done this like a month ago or something. Something is fishy in this story for sure

    If you would have told me a year ago that I would be cheering for OSU to win 2 national championships in 1 year I would have bet you 1 million dollars. Thank God I'm not a betting man!! FLORIDA SUCKS!!!

    All signs point that Beilein will be U-M's next coach maybe as soon as Monday. I think its a real safe hire, and U-M should improve. They may not become elite, but I'm very pleased with it. The guy has won everywhere he has went, and has also had some very good tourny success at WV, with literally no talent what so ever. Who are your picks for this weekend? I got UCLA/OSU...both teams get revenge from last year.

    Learned from a very reliable source that U-M's top canidate is John Beilein from West Virginia, and a close second Jay Wright of Villanova. Others are still a possibility because they may strike out on them, but guys like Lowery/other upcoming coaches are fading away. Also told me spending money will not be a factor because they will have to pay for Beileins buyout, or pay close to 1.8 million for Wright.

    NCAA Basketball Season

    I agree with you, but disagree at the same time. I agree with the following -Playing 8 home games is BS, but it's becoming a fad with major football teams so they can keep upgrading things to impress people/recruits. College sports is now becoming a buisness, and it's all about saying "hey look what I have" -U-M has horrible facilties for basketball, and the University has been shy about upgrading -The Big House did need some major repairs (press box, bathrooms, and wider seats were a huge need), but I do think they went over the top with it. -U-M won't get a 'high level' coach because of the reasons you listed. Disagree -Recovering from NCAA violations. That was a long time ago. If U-M would have hired another coach instead of TA they could be a legit Big 10 team already -The Patino thing happend right before hiring Amaker...so NCAA garbage was not a factor. - U-M never contacted Tubby according to Andy Katz. I think it's a smart move. If he can't recruit UK well, how could he do it here? Katz also said Minnesota contacted Tubby 6 weeks ago about coaching. I don't think U-M planned on firing Amaker 6 weeks ago, because there was still a small chance of them going to the tourny. - U-M has a good basketball fanbase...it's no MSU or Duke, but fans were sick of Amaker, and showing their opinion. If I remember right MSU football games were pretty empty compared to normal the last few games last season too. Just my thoughts...I think they end up hiring Lowery

    Jack Johnson to suit up for Kings

    I would love to hear why. Because he's good, or maybe because he's american? Or you're a buckeye? I would really want to hear

    I think this time around U-M will spend money towards basketball. Remember they had a deal with Patino almost done, but then Bo freaked out, and said they were not paying enough attention to football (totally not true). Looks like Davidson has dished out a lot of money in the past. He should just pay to fix up Chrisler, and then let U-M pay for a coach.

    Check this Jack Johnson video out...even if you don't like U-M. It's pretty funny. I kind of worry about the created though if he had that much time on his hands to make it

    Jack Johnson to suit up for Kings

    I thought CAR traded Jack because he wouldn't leave school his freshmen year. Maybe I'm wrong, but thats the assumption I always had......

    Kill Jack, Kill. Kill Jack Kill. Can't wait to see him even though I wish he would have stayed another year. Good luck Jack! Carolina is stupid for trading him.

    Still can't believe MSU took down ND. Lerg played his rear end off though, and MSU fully deserved to win. Very good win. By the way Jack Johnson is going to the Kings...tear. Can't say I blame him though...good luck Jack!

    College Football

    I agree....I wouldn't do FSU treatment (although I can understand why Bowman does it), but I think a 2 strike rule is very fair

    College Football

    The "Lloyd Carr" Punishment? Usually he kicks them off the team almost right away (like this case). Which takes balls especially when you're a big college football program. Just because Carr gave Marlin Jackson a second chance doesn't mean he does that to all his players. Jackson got lucky, and should thank Carr....especially after winning a SB ring this year. I give props to guys like Carr and Tressel (let 2 starting TE's go) for doing things like that. There kind of is. Germany came here from USC, where he got into some trouble there. So he knew he was on thin ice to begin with. Richards got into some trouble last season, but since Ron English is his godfather I think thats why he stayed on board. I have no clue with Butler...he must have done something stupid, because he's a key part to the team

    College Football

    Butler, Richards, and Germany all kicked off the team today. Butler is the only one that stings. I'm glad Lloyd kicked them off the team though. Maybe they can transfer to Florida State, and get a million chances.

    Detroit Lions Offseasn Thread

    I don't think Hall will be a Lion....I hope not. I think Hall will wind up in Houston or Miami. I think OAK has no chance but to take Russel.
