Anyone else catch this chain of irony?

OK - who is slower?

Harbaugh for making the comments that he did about TSUNs academics in May of this year?

SI.com for taking three months to report on the same and Hart and Carr's response, or ..

Hart and Carr to take 3 calendar months to read, digest and then respond to Harbaugh's comments?

I'm going with option 3.

I thought I saw the comments from Carr and Hart right after Harbaugh's comments. SI was just waiting till football interest started to pep up again.

Still fun to see this go around twice.

As for student athletes, that kettle in Michigan sure is black.

Don't know anything about Hart, but I did see where James McKinney - DT from a couple of years ago that we were also chasing - has left the team for medical reasons.

I thought some of the quotes were from b10 media day, hence the newer article.

The recently published spring football media guide shows that nearly 82 percent of scholarship players on the 2007 Michigan football team who declared a major have done so in general studies. The four of 22 who did not pick general studies are majoring in psychology, American culture, sociology and sports management and communications, respectively."

I believe this meshes up with my observation last fall in the UM game thread.

The thing that bugs me is the arrogance. I don't think this practice is illegal, and may be the only way to run a football program at a great academic school like UM. Fine, I can accept that. But don't mock and demean other 'lesser' schools when in fact they might be pursuing more legitimate majors. This is directed primarily at the fanbase.

I clicked on every michigan name I recognized, trying to sample what classes the non-benchwarmers were taking. Looks pretty cushy to me.

"I wish he had never played here," Hart said this week during the Big Ten media meetings in Chicago. "I've never met him, and I don't want to."

Picture him saying this with a bonnet on his head and a rattle in his hand, because that's about where his maturity level stands. poor little fella... :(

I'm not trying to troll if it comes off as so. But why are you guys so hell-bent on saying Hart talks too much? I'm seriously just curious. Is it because of the "if we play them again it will be a different outcome" comments he made last year? Is he not allowed to voice his opinion? If he thinks that's what would have happened, why shouldn't he say it? I personally don't think U-M would have won a rematch (unless we found our defense which appeared to be riddled with impostors during that game) , but doesn't mean others can't think the other way.

To me, I think it's mostly that he sounds like a crybaby when he's talking. Most of the time, he's coming up with excuses for why things are the way they are. To be fair, though, I don't go searching for Michael Hart quotes. I only read them when I know they're going to be funny.

I don't see this "news" as very interesting. It's like a soap opera. Call me when Carr gets pregnant with Hart's baby, and Henne thinks its really his, or something.

Take it FWIW, but this post from the N'Western Board is pretty interesting:

Add BuddyUM can't handle the truth, Harbaugh is honestReply I can tell you from first hand experience in the early '80's. During the initial recruiting by UM, I told them I wanted to be pre-med and major in one of the sciences. I was told DIRECTLY,

"Those are probably too hard for you because Michigan is such a great school, you should really consider Sports Management instead. Many of our athletes are doing very well there."

That instantly crossed UM off the list. UM was the ONLY school who tried to have me change my academic interests. True story.This post was edited on 8/3 7:17 AM by VACat"
