    Any word on Richard Ash? I'd assume you'd want to have him at NT and preserve Pipkins' RS.

    He hasn't been very impressive yet. I doubt Pipkins redshirts either way. The coaches really like their DL rotation.

    I made pancakes for breakfast and then used homemade maple syrup from northern Michigan. It was awesome.

    Who downvoted me for this and why? 2 pro-style O's with drop-back passers, bigger WR's with a vertical passing game and a run-first power I mentality? Why was that offensive?

    You implied that MSU and UM would be similar in football. That alone freaks out 99% of Michigan fans. They just can't handle it.

    It's what I've encountered over the last 4 years saying that MSU would be not only on the same level as UM but a better team. Michigan fans seem baffled by this...

    It's crazy to think that the previous 100 years of football doesn't mean Michigan will win. How could I think such a crazy thought!?!?!?

    I have a good gif to post, but this site sucks and doesn't accept anything over 1mb. but I'm sure these boards are an upgrade from where everyone else came from.

    Spartantailgate took a few steps down to come here. However, the mgobloggers are probably loving this place.

    We fell off a cliff to come here, imo, its more than just a few steps down.

    How's Brink looking?

    Michigan State does not and will not run the 3-4 defense.

    Haven't heard his name all spring. Roh and Heitzmann are the main two at SDE. Heitzmann took a RS year last year and was really impressive during the bowl practices especially and he must've beaten Brink early this spring.

    I believe Brink is sitting out spring for the most part healing from that broken leg he got before the bowl game.

    Ouch, I missed that one. Rather have a broken leg than a ligament injury, as messed up as that sounds.

  • MSU guys what’s up with James Young (2013) SG from Troy? Is he a MSU lean/lock right now or is he up for grabs? What’s a good comparison for his game? I’m planning on seeing one of his games this year.

    I don't know if MSU has offered yet. Weird situation that I don't recall all the specifics of. I know that's horribly non-specific, but that's all I know.

    I'm not talking about the entire history of our programs vs. the last 4 years, I'm talking about the fact that 3 of the last 4 years occurred under RichRod and a system that isn't in place anymore. Right now you've got a 1-game sample size regarding Michigan's new pro-style system, and thanks to Denard, this isn't even the true pro-style that we'll eventually be running. I think it's perfectly fair to say that Michigan State has been kicking our asses of late, but I don't think you can use the last 4 years as evidence that the trend will continue in the future.

    ESPN has him at 10, he’s 21 on here IIRC, and he’s 16 on rivals IIRC. ESPN show’s that you guys have offered and 247 shows that we have offered so I’m not sure what the situation is. He’s got some interest in UK as well, but Cal hasn’t offered.

    If i remember correctly i think he has some serious academic issues. I really hate saying that about kids but that is what i remember reading.

    The argument always goes back to Michigan. This is poor logic though. MSU has a serious coach that doesn't run from Michigan. He's turned the MSU program around into the program it can/should be. Michigan fans hate Dantonio and it's because he's a good, productive coach. He's not going anywhere and because of that, the MSU football program will continue to succeed regardless of UM's situation.

    Sure, but anyone who says that MSU will flat out dominate each year is just a flat-out homer.

    And anyone that thinks that MSU is just going to roll over going forward is a homer as well.
