    Just think of the millions UM spends in staff salary, summer camps, Signing of Stars, etc… compared to Wisconsin, who will likely be a heavy favorite next November in Madison

    Here’s to hoping Jim can surprise us all

    GO BLUE

      LOL!! You’re killing me! and brushing on a topic I’m going let loose on after signing day and the off season is upon us.
      How is Jim going to surprise us all? Hmmm?

      Maybe by keeping the budget under $20 million$ for perpetual 3rd place East Divy finishes while PSU’s 3rd year Franklin wins the B10. (maybe even repeats?)

      No pressure, Harbs. LOL
      Thanx………………..INTJohn

    Wisconsin’s best days are behind them. Chryst is unexceptional and won’t carry the torch much further.

    Michigan will win in Madison this fall.

      Chryst makes me laugh. This is so hilarious!! He is a good coach but he is such a non threat to “the Alvarez” that he’ll be there fo e’er. (he got the job kawze a Tressel) LOL!

      I’ve never seen anyone at a presser that is so sober and pull off seeming like so drunk in such a completely unintentional & innocent manner. He’s got the look and the lou holtz give me a towel slurred speech. I never even hear what he’s sayin ; i just wanna pour a gin & tonik and toast him. LOL

      Az I pour a gin & tonik……………..INTJohn
