Brandon declares, "Michigan is Back"

  • I'm glad he thinks so...

    sarcasm aside, I do agree with this....

    Brandon said he received a steady drumbeat of complaints about nearly every proposed change – from football under the lights at U-M stadium to numbers on the helmets – that has been undertaken on his watch.

    “But you know what? I don’t care,” Brandon said.

    ...afterall, what they were doing wasn't working; change can be a good thing.

  • Who are you rooting for in the Mich-Bama game?
    I would like for them to beat the shit out of each other and tie but I know that won't happen. LOL
    I hate both of them. I hate scum because I'm a diehard Buckeye fan. I hate Bama because of where I live. There are more Bama fans here than any Florida fans. I'm sure most just became Bama fans. Sick and tired of seeing a damn A on the back of all their damn windows.

  • Stating they are back is a tacit admission that they were gone. At least he is accepting reality a bit.

  • They will be back, they will leave September 2-2, and be eliminated from any national title nonsense talk.
    That is the Michigan I know, out of national title contention by the first of Ocotober most years and overrated.
    Dominos had adds mocking how this idiot almost ran them out of business, he is a gay sounding dork.

    Tell Ohio U they are back in basketball.

  • Michigan is back, when Michigan wins championships. Until then, scUM, shut up.

  • No they aren't back.

    They used to be a perrenial top 10 ranked team. LOL at the idea that this team is talented enough to be top ten. They aren't even top 3 in the conference.

  • Eh. They finally beat us, their new coach is recruiting pretty good, I will be the first to say that they are doing better. Are they "back"? Hardly. Back means that they are relevant on the big stage of college football. Not even close yet. Right now they are living off of the fact that they have certain recruits over us. Well fine. One win doesn't mean you are the best. Are they better now? Yup. Are you gonna destroy everyone in college football? No. Long way to go.

  • Dearest School Up North,

    From the bottom of the hearts of the entire B1G, the rest of the annoyed country, and most importantly THE Ohio State University...WE collectively would like tell the scUM faculty, arrogant pizza boy lead administration, your Head Coach who doesn't wear a headset during gamedays and drives a car home with his feet, your 2012/13 recruits who A) haven't played a collegiate football game, let alone won SHIT, and B) have zero CLASS nor at least RESPECT for the greatest rivalry in all of sports...to politely SHUT YOUR FUCKING GRAVY HOLES AND BACK YOUR IGNORANT, IRRELEVANT TRASH TALK UP ON THE FIELD! See you in November, when I pray to God above, we take every word you spew out, turn that Son a Bitch sideways...and cram it back up your skunking asses.

    Warmest Regards,

    -Buckeye Nation who's ears are bleeding.

    P.S. Dominos Pizza tastes like Vagisil, unwashed gym taint, atop a crust of cardboard...and regret about a half hour after consumption.

  • Smutjunkie: agreed 100%! But that means National Championships! Remember, that particular school only has1/2 "real one" since 1948! That IS NOT "Leaders & Best!" That is the fact of the matter!!

    You are correct. That is one of the items they always attempt to point out. How many top 10 finishes they've had since whenever. I say that is kind of like horseshoes and hand grenades.......close but no cigar! Good program? Absolutely! 1/2 "Real" NC since 1948.....Also absolutely!

    I agree w/the fact (in order to get 'back'), they needed to make changes...regardless of what fans, alumni, players, and whoever else thought.
    Change was forced on us; not them. They had to make change.

  • I won't go as far as to say they are back but I think they might be on the right road. I'm not from the "show me" state but a coach with a 50-50 winning % has to SHOW ME first.

  • With Denard healthy, and if his skills improve incrementally similarly to previous years, they've got an excellent chance to win the conference. I'd love to see Michigan beat Alabama somehow, run through the conference rolling up huge offensive numbers, and then bring their then-Heisman-favorite quarterback into Columbus making spoon feeding gestures and swaggering with confidence. And then something like a Biakabutuka performance from Carlos Hyde. Sweet dispair.

  • When you are really back, you don't have to try to convince everyone else.....they know.

  • My definition of being "back" must be a lot different than Dave Brandon's. Maybe I'm in the minority but a season where you beat 1 good team (Nebraska) doesn't register as being "back" to me, call me crazy. It's called benefiting from a cupcake schedule and a VERY favorable bowl opponent.

    But as you said 3yds, I'm glad he's thinking that way. Hopefully Hoke and all other Michigan fans think they're back also.
