It's quite obvious he was joking.

The appropriateness/wisdom of joking like that on the internet in a way that will never be forgotten is, shall we say, sub-optimal.

You know why John L sucked balls at MSU? I'm starting to think it's because his recruiting pitch was, "Kid, you've got Michigan talent. But holy [censored], you're stupid. You should just be a Spartan instead!"

27 will enjoy that PSU uses a similar tactic.

I think Delany should allocate a block of time on the Big Ten Network for "The Marques Slocomb Show," an hour long late night talk-show. His first nights' guests could be da realest bitch alive, his moms, Carla, followed by Bubbles, then Jim Harbaugh.

That would be must see TV. BTN would be basic cable in two years with quality programming like that.

Is that really the image he wants? I realize expectations for athletes and common sense is at an all time low, but still, if he's going to a major program shouldn't he at least try not to look like a complete tool?

Yeah, I guess he was joking around the first 5 times he took the ACT.
Every answer must have been F (dat b!tch).

Michigan: School's In Session

Mike Hart put the running backs through position drills, teaching the campers basics such as taking a handoff and how to hold onto the ball. It's like any other camp -- except the would-be tailbacks at Michigan's Women's Football Academy just happen to look a lot like mom.

The full-day camp, which raised more than $180,000 to benefit the Coach Carr Cancer Fund, offered 500 participants an opportunity to learn how to play the game. They went through drills, position instruction and offensive, defensive and special teams strategies, and concluded with a scrimmage in Michigan Stadium -- all under the tutelage of Wolverines players and staff.

"It's funny because it's a lot of older women that come in and they're just there to have a good time, so we just get to mess around with them and they just like taking pictures ... it's a great time," Hart said.

The academy is just one of the activities the Wolverines take part in to raise money for the Carr Cancer Fund, all while spending valuable time away from the game. Players also participated in the Carr Wash. While his teammates were off scrubbing down vehicles, Heisman-hopeful Hart avoided the work by signing autographs.

"The first half I was signing stuff, [and] the second half I got out there and sprayed some cars down," Hart said. "I wasn't doing too much washing; [i] leave that to the younger guys."

Michigan player reinstated after being cleared of assault charges

ANN ARBOR, Mich. (AP) ? University of Michigan coach Lloyd Carr said Tuesday tight end Carson Butler has been reinstated and after being cleared of charges of attacking a student on St. Patrick?s Day.

Butler, 19, of Detroit, was released from the team in March after being accused of assaulting the student but was acquitted in July.

Carr said he decided to allow Butler to return after the judicial process had played out.

?Because of that, I just felt it would be extremely unfair not to give him another opportunity,? Carr said during a press conference at Schembechler Hall. ?What he?s trying to do is do some things he?s been asked to do and so we?ll see how that works out.?

Butler started the last six games of last season, finishing fourth on the team with 19 receptions.

He was charged with defensive back Christian Richards, a 19-year-old reserve defensive back from Pacoima, Calif. Richards was convicted of assault and sentenced to six months probation and was released in March.

Carr said he decided to allow Butler to return after the judicial process had played out.

FIXED:

Carr said he decided to allow Butler to return after spring & summer practices, realizing that even with five years in the system, Tyler Ecker still can't block, catch, or run, and Carr is sick of seeing big games end on the last play with the ball in Ecker's hands.

So Voyd's running a male prostitution ring up there...I thought only Ann Arbor was the whore? Looks like Hart is too!

Gotta love the selective quoting...
