    I always appreciate how Mike bags on the morning shows for having folks on the Michigan payroll when his sidekick is on the MSU payroll.

      Fr! Rico doesn’t have an unbiased bone in his body.. overly optimistic about MSU and never gives Michigan credit until left with no choice

    Dropped our season tix at MSU after almost 50 years. Watching at home was nice and it felt less stressful having to worry about driving and spending all day away from home.

    Look at someone who loved college sports. Esp football. I truly feel that gambling, NIL and the portal have absolutely destroyed the sport. At this point i can’t believe it was less than 10 years ago i knew all of the recruits and all of the details of the team. i went from that to not even watching most games. I just fell out of love with the sport.

      🙌 👍 👏!!! The collapse of the Big East a decade ago was the start. I too, just like you used to know all the recruits and schedules. Couldn’t wait for college football and basketball. I always thought there should be some compensation for the players but at the same time, it was still about academics at these schools. It wasn’t until the major conference realignment in 2014 that really changed the landscape of college athletics. I feel the portal is more damaging than NIL. You have starters from Power 5 (now 4) schools leaving for better NIL. There should transfer restrictions for players.

    NO, the purity of college football is long gone! 5 Reasons: Big 10 expanding past the original 10, not playing every team in your conference (mathematically impossible now anyway), powerhouse programs paying garbage teams like OSU vs Akron, the transfer portal, and NIL (a free $300+k education should suffice) Greed always wins...

    Michigan Derangement Syndrome is strong. I don’t like the game that much anymore. I used to love reading the Athlon preview magazine cover to cover. I don’t even know who plays for my team anymore. A starter from the previous season isn’t there anymore. Not from the NFL draft, but because the NCAA has a new free agent period. Pick one or the other, you can’t have both…Do you want to be paid or freedom of movement? You want to be paid, sign a contract to a certain school. You want to have freedom of movement, you can’t be paid.

    I can enjoy it in some way until the kids are not even students at the university anymore. This talk about private equity buying the naming rights for smaller schools and running the teams... I mean what even is that Frankenstein nonsense.

      To be honest Detroit is a tiger town. The old English D is the tigers logo and everyone where’s a D hat mostly to represent the city or D shirts, or D tattoos which is actually the tigers logo.

    I’d say the NHL and college football were always my top two. Last year was the perfect storm and the levees broke. MSU had yet another scandal and has proven themselves to be a bunch of incompetent, bumbling clowns with no leadership. Michigan gets away with blatant, over-the-top cheating with another in-state school facilitating the collusion. AND an undefeated power five team gets omitted for more popular matchups and the almighty dollar. CFB is the WWE . I haven’t watched yet and I don’t think I plan to much if at all.
