YES, PANIC. PANIC IS APPROPRIATE.
EDSBS — ... The promised transfer panic begins at Michigan. Everybody panic, indeed. Sam McGuffie, midget white running back, should consider transferring to Florida so that we may diversify our shades of tiny quarkbacks. (Honkie=”strange,” for your quark categories.) ...

Rich Rodriguez To Michigan Fanboys: "Get A Life" [College Football]
Deadspin — ... Neither are rumors that RB Sam McGuffie—one of the few bright spots this season and a big hope for the future—might be leaving school as part of a larger player exodus. The athletic director actually had to step in with a public vote of confidence earlier in the season, but if Ohio State embarrasses them this weekend (they're favored by 19; the largest spread in the history of the rivalry) it's going to be a long winter in Ann Arbor. ...

McGuffie, Chambers to Transfer (maybe)
Maize n Brew — via blog.mlive.com You've undoubtedly heard that McGuffie and LB Artis Chambers have told coaches that they plan to transfer next year.  While the first reaction is panic (go ahead, panic, it's fine) some mode of rationality must be maintained. 1)  Mgoblog has been wrong.  Brian was wrong when he posted that Cox was going to transfer.  He was wrong when he said Ferentz had been dubbed "next."  However, I will say this: despite being unofficial, Brian is aware and is very diligent about the fact that his site is important and does serve a purpose.  He takes ...

Howard On Wolverines: “This Is Michigan Tech”
SPORTSbyBROOKS — ... to learn how to play football in some of those games, they looked so bad. This isn’t Michigan, this is like Michigan Tech. OK…never mind. Howard went on to add some fuel to the fire, saying that if the team has another year like this season that there would be “no way” Rodriguez would survive. So much for a three-year plan. Needless to say, big changes are coming to the Wolverines program in the off-season, some before the final game has been played this season. MGOBLOG reports that three Wolverines have decided to leave the team , with several more to follow. Among those on ...

OSU/Michigan: Spreads and Packing Bags

Ohio State also was favored by 19 in 1962, and went on to win, 28-0. [...] With a victory, Ohio State can clinch at least a share of the Big Ten championship. And remember that prize running back recruit that YouTube’d his way to Michigan?  In today’s weekly Big Ten teleconference, Michigan coach Rich Rodriguez said sophomore Zion Babb was no longer with the team. Rodriguez said the wide receiver hasn’t been with the team since Sunday. So… yeah. I was ...

Michigan is Doing Just Fine
UHND.com - Notre Dame Football, Basketball, & Recruiting — I haven’t posted much about the train wreck of a first season Rich Rodriguez is having for that team with the same helmets as the University of Delaware, but the last few days there has been some developments up in Ann Arbor that I felt I had to post about. First off, it looks like some players are ready to jump ship already.  There are rumors that freshman Sam McGuffie is looking to leave, Jason Kates has left, and there’s rumors there could be quite a few more according to MGOBlog. So… yeah. I was sitting on this until I had some outside confirmation and this serves as ...
