Hey All! GOOD MORNING!

It's been a couple days.......

Cold with sleet this morning here in the armpit of Michigan. Had a cold for a few days. Basically been ornary! lol

Looking forward to Sayerday to cheer me up.

Any news on Denard? Any idea if Devin plays if Denard isn't ready?

Any idea why Rawls isn't playing? I still say he's injured. I remember hearing that about 3 weeks ago. No one else heard it though so I think I'm loopy. (Maybe it's the cold medicine.

I hope all MICHIGAN FANS have a superb day today!

LET'S GO BLUE!!!!!

I posted below that I think Devin gets the start on Saturday. Just reading between the lines from the link.

I think UM wins big even with Devin, and I think you will get a glimpse of what the offense will look like next year.

If the O-line can open some holes, and I think they can against Minny, UM will win big. I also think if Devin plays QB, Darboh gets a lot of WR time.

those 2 words don't go together in my vocabulary.

Are those 'tist?

Fish, are we going to run the I or the split backfield or the single back?

I, for one, want to see the I formation or a pro set. I'd like to see that even with Denard in the lineup. I'm old fashioned. RUN THE BALL!!!!! lol

So if Devin starts do we run the same offense we have today or do you really think we start running a different offense? I don't see how we could run a different one. Not enough time to practice it.

Thoughts?

I'm sure it will be similar to the current offense, but I also think you will see less read option and more designed runs for the RB. Also, less QB draws.

I think Devin is a more accurate passer, and maybe he can be successful with some play action.

If we run the I formation that line is gonna need some work, becuase that will mean they will need to hold blocks longer. Right now the get away with alot of brush blocks that don't tale a heck of along time.

This still makes me feel like Devin is going to start.

I don't get that from the article but we all read diferent things into things like this.

I'm not worried. I'll let Coach Hoke do the worrying for me! lol

I disagree, that is not to say that he is orse. Just different but the same, still inaccurate.

*This was post #2000.

I say Devin starts simply because Denard isn't 100% and there's no point in risking him against....MINNNESOOOOOOOOTA.

I considered that Admin but Denard is such a gamer I'm almost willing to bet he starts, plays up to 5 series', but then gives way to Devin. Whether Coach Hoke will let him is the real question. I think that he will...
