If our defense isnt "special"....then what does he think that makes his OWN defense? They were the D that was being hyped as one of the best ever, with 4 1st Round picks....and they got rolled on through the air AND the ground. I guess the Bucks didnt get the memo the press sent out that you CANT run on the UM defense.  And he is right about the outcome being different in a rematch.....we wont have two botched, fluke snaps to keet them in the game again. I respect Mike Hart as a GREAT player.....but when i heard those comments, i was severly disappointed (just as i would have been if a Buck had said them). You would expect a "team leader" to show a tad more respect. Oh well....hope he enjoys the Rose Bowl!!

The comments just made him look like an idiot. I think it was just the emotion of the loss because the bitterness in his voice was pretty obvious to me. No big deal, but the best he has to wish for is 1-3 vs OSU and he's got some work to do to accomplish that. |

If you want to bring up anything from that long ago, bring it on. I'll see your Desmond Howard and raise you a Robert Reynolds. |

My 2 cents on the subject is that Harts words and the words of UM fans are completely different.
Mike Hart directly represents the football team and the feelings of his university. They would not have put him in front of cameras if they did not want him speaking on behalf of the UM team. Therefore, his language reflects what the rest of the team feels.
The fans however are not put in front of cameras because they have a different view of the games and the opposing teams, we are not a part of the football team. We view a game against NW as cake walk and talk all week about how we will roll against the Wildcats. However, when Troy Smith speaks, he talks in class about respects the other squads strengths. That right there shows that a fans opinion and a players opinion are on different levels. There should be no comparison between fans and players on this subject.

In my world it is possible for players to loose my respect. Reynolds (and I'm assuming you're talking about the Wisconsin game) is certainly a case in point. I didn't care for Boston's finger pointing either.
As for Hart, after finally showing up for The Game, he's certainly entitled to a few sour grapes, but those should have been shared with the team and not with the outside press. Whatever the outcome, he certainly added to the OSU motivational bulletine board.
Desmond's endzone antics pre-date (and helped create) the rules against excessive celebrating... back to Boston, eh?
I dislike the WWF poses and gestures on the football field. It's probably why I prefer college ball to the NFL.
