Rudock starts for michigan

I almost feel bad for him. Is it possible that his brain is getting in his way? Seems like he is over thinking things. Sports are a reactionary thing.

I've actually mentioned this to other friends. Jake and Vandenberg are/were two highly intellegent QB's that I felt over thought things on the football field.
 
Lol, Whittingham is like "gtfo the field" to his punter.

Butt looks like a very solid TE. Maybe too early to say among the best in the Big Ten, but he's made a strong opening argument.
 
Harbaugh is one stubborn SOB. This love affair at Michigan may be short lived. There was a reason San Fran was happy to see him go.

The fans of sanfran were not at all happy , the ownership was.

It will go down as a move on par with the cowboys letting Jimmy Johnson go and the Bulls letting Phill Jackson go.

Michigan is clearly very much improved over last year already.
 
Rudock does... just enough to divide the fanbase and screw the coaches trying to decide who to play next week.
He's consistent.

Was this a typical Rudock type game? Does he overthrow passes a lot? He looked accurate on the last drive.

You might want to go to the Michigan Rivals board and check out the love fest going on there.
 
It's obvious Rudock just doesn't have the talent. Utah is a very good team. But Michigan offense looked very similar to Iowa all of last year. Michigan's OLine didn't help out at all.

Everybody's ripping on Rudock and our new QB hasn't started his season against an FCS team at home yet. I'm waiting until that game happens to judge.

im not sure i understand this post. jr started for another B1G team and was not impressive, to say the least. will cj look better in the hawks first game? i really dont know if cjb will be an improvement over jr last year for the hawks but i think we have seen the best of jr and are hoping that cjb has a higher ceiling.

Jake does not inspire confidence with 3 picks in his first
game at Michigan. Now we wait for Iowa's QB to take
his debut on Saturday.
 
Enjoy Rudock, Michigan. He was always a mediocre QB. I had originally hoped he'd be the next Ricky Stanzi, but that clearly never played out.

Looking forward to see if CJ has improved at all this Saturday.

I realize it is petty to take enjoyment out of seeing Rudock flop at Michigan...but it serves Harbaugh right....he swoops in late to take KF's RB recruit and then take's KF's 2nd string QB. Rudock will be a very successful young man and has a bright future, but not in Football. CJ had the better upside...CJ may end up running for his life with porous OL, and no QB can win with a defense like the one that played UT in bowl game.
 
Exactly, Michigan would have won if they had CJ Beathard. That is all anyone is trying to say.

Don't know about the RB, but Jake chose to go to Michigan. He was going to leave Iowa no matter what and Michigan came calling as a result.

But yeah, UM's o-line hasn't been good for some time now. Doesn't look like they improved/upgraded much in the off-season either.
We'll see how Iowa's OL fares in their first contest compared to Michigan's, even though there's a difference in the opponents each will have faced.
 
Rough night for JR but I still think he will have a good season. Utah is one of the better defenses that Michigan will see all year and they couldn't run the ball. JR's numbers will look better next week and it looks like Harbaugh is confident in him.
