Great thread!
I was definitely bummed by the loss. It is laughable the number of UM fans that come out of the wall here in Michigan when they win, especially against tOSU. I have asked most of them if they are bummed that Lloyd couldn't get the team to play like that all year. If they had they might have had a shot at the Sugar.
I think you really have to give the coaching staff credit for holding this team together and getting us to a major bowl. There were many adverse situations that this team struggled through that have been pointed out already, Plus, the MoC situation had a chance to tear the fabric of this team apart and may have, in fact, caused more damage internally than we will ever know.
I agree Tress is going for the more athletic o-line players and maybe not ones that are the big name, behemouth type recruits.
It looks like he is trying to build a line similar to the Denver Broncos. They have always had good run blocking lines in recent years. They were smaller and quicker lines than most in the nfl and it didn't seem to matter who carried the ball they all gained huge yards.
Tress really seems to embody the thought that "defense wins games" and that you have to be able to run the ball, especially late in the year in looking at the players that he is recruiting.
Go Bucks!!
