Well getting ready for the Spring Game and the Bucks are reported to be looking good. Pittman is said to have gained some weight and looking sweet . Qb's are playing well Tood Boeckman is said to be having a great spring and could be playing himself in the mix at Qb...Yeah right he's a good kid and has put up with alot Grey shirt waiting paitently for a shot that may never come, however he has gotten alot of praise from Ashton Youboty saying that he feels Todd is as good as Zwick and Smith. Boeckman is a #3 and I can't see him getting snaps unless injuries or in cleanup situation. Albert Dukes wr receiver from Flordia is suppose to really be lighting it up this Spring and alot of OSU Players have been saying he is gonna have a breakout year!!! This is scary and would mean someone would have to see some reduction, I mean there is only enough to go around 4Wr being productive pretty scary Ginn,Holmes,Gonzales,and Dukes this is the most depth we have had at wr in years!!!!!!!! but good to have if any of the wr get hurt except Ginn there is no replacing Ginn. I have not heard alot about the kicking game this really worries me!!!! OSU has gotten pretty used to seing Nugent come and just boom 40-45 yarders and now that's gone. The O line still getting it's due but remains to be seen. I have heard Roy Hall is back at Wr the TE experiment must have not worked out but we still may see him in the mix. Alex Boone top recruit in my scarlet and grey opinion sure is gonna be nice to have another animal lineman and should push someone hard for some pt on the O line. Thanks OHIO for the Buckeyeplanet.com I have become a member and visit often. I think I will stop by the tailgate before the spring game see ya there.

So where do you think Braylon will go? I'm not a Browns fan but if I was the Browns I would pull the trigger if he is still there at # 3. I really don't like Rodgers and Smith. The drop off at Qb this year is blurred. I mean Charlie Frye and Jason Campell may end up having better careers and are 2nd round QB's. take Braylon and your lumps this year and go QB next year. If I had to make a pick at #3 that's what I would do but the smart thing fro the Browns to trade down if they don't want Braylon. Did I just promote a scUM player!!! I think I'm gonna be sick :D

Those numbers are skewed by the Cooper effect(2-10-1 against Mich :D ). Face it, you got a free pass all those years as the Coopster chewed his nails to all those defeats.

5-5 in the last 10 yrs, and the landscape is a changin'!

Sacosud, my man..you gotta work with me here. Y'see, we have this little thing going to try and keep the Buckeye thread always on top, so that's what's visible when people log in to the boards.

 

So, even if you're responding to what one of the weasels wrote in the Wolverweenie thread, post your reply to them in the Buckeye thread. :D

I understand. It's very difficult to get Buckeye's to grasp things that aren't spelled out specifically :D

Ohio State offense won the Scarlet jersey 95-39 in the annual jersey scrimmage yesterday. The coaching staff has commented they are kinda suprised at where the offense is at this time of year. I have spoken to a couple of people that was allowed to watch the scrimage and said Ginn broke a 30 yard td and made a few players unamed look bad in the open field. I also heard Devon Lyons was lit up by Whitner across the middle and got his bell rung pretty good. Thank God they put him back at SS instead of corner. A.J was flying all over the place but the best news was Josh Hutson was 2-3 from 40-45 and hit the post from 50 yards out on his miss. I'm going to the spring game myself Sat. 1:30pm and I'll let KS know all about it. :D

Wolverines on display in final spring practice

Sunday, April 17, 2005

BY JOHN HEUSER

News Sports Reporter

Sunny skies, toasty weather and a two-hour dose of University of Michigan football beckoned fans to Michigan Stadium to witness the team's final spring practice Saturday.

 

With an estimated 12,000 to 15,000 spectators on hand, the Wolverines ran through a litany of drills, described over the public address system by Jim Brandstatter, normally a radio man.

 

The crowd emitted a collective "ooooohh" when backup quarterback Matt Gutierrez flung a deep reception to wideout Steve Breaston, who had slipped by his defender.

 

 

From Our Advertiser

 

 

 

 

Although no longer a Wolverine, wide receiver Braylon Edwards was a center of attention, decked out in a bright pink shirt, white pants and plenty of bling. Soon to be a top draft pick by the NFL, Edwards chatted up former teammates on the field and signed autographs for fans.

 

As is custom, the practice ended with Michigan coach Lloyd Carr catching a touchdown pass.

 

Afterward, Carr and some of his players discussed what had been accomplished over the 15 spring practices, which began on March 19.

 

Among the impressions from the Wolverines, who will be chasing their third consecutive Big Ten title in the fall:

 

 

The offensive line is still unsettled. Last year's left guard, Rueben Riley, moved to center in the spring, but missed significant practice time because of injury.

 

 

"We still have to do some things there to solidify the position, but Rueben certainly has the athletic ability and he's smart," Carr said.

 

Redshirt freshman Alex Mitchell clearly impressed the coach during the spring, when Mitchell spent a week at center among other positions. The hole at left guard is expected to be filled by Leo Henige, who is not at full strength following knee surgery.

 

 

The tailback spot is loaded. Help is on the way for last year's standout freshman tailback Mike Hart, who led the Big Ten with 1,455 rushing yards. Hart's classmate Max Martin has practiced well, as has Kevin Grady, a freshman who enrolled at Michigan in January.

 

 

"Our situation in the backfield has the potential to be as good as we've had in quite some time," said Carr, who later added he would look at using two tailbacks at the same time.

 

"If you've got two guys who can really catch the football and block, that becomes a great set," he said. "I think we've got some guys to do that."

 

On the flip side, the fullback position - filled for the last two years by Kevin Dudley - is wide open.

 

 

Gutierrez will be ready for fall. A redshirt junior who was tabbed to be last season's starter before suffering a shoulder injury, Gutierrez has made a relatively speedy recovery from surgery. Originally expected to be out all spring, Gutierrez - a team leader - participated in everything that didn't involve contact.

 

 

That's good news for the Wolverines should starter Chad Henne, who threw for 2,743 yards and 25 touchdowns as a freshman last fall, go down.

 

"My strength is coming," Gutierrez said. "It seems like more and more every day, so hopefully it'll keep going that way."

 

 

Breaston is back. Hampered last season by injuries, Breaston has maintained the form he showed in the Rose Bowl, where he burned Texas in record-setting fashion.

 

 

"He's certainly got the potential to be a game-breaking football player," Carr said.

 

Redshirt freshman Doug Dutch and sophomore Adrian Arrington appear to be the leaders for the team's third wide receiver position, alongside starters Breaston and Jason Avant.

 

 

The defense is evolving. A base 3-4 team last season, with three down linemen and four linebackers, the Wolverines practiced from the 4-3 set the majority of the time this spring.

 

 

Senior defensive tackle Gabe Watson and other defenders said Michigan's coaches have been emphasizing pursuing the passer and being more patient when filling their rush lanes.

 

"The two games at the end of the season we lost (to Ohio State and Texas), it was because of scrambling quarterbacks," Watson said. "That's one of our biggest problems."

 

 

Leon Hall could be the next Marlin Jackson. With the first-team All-America cornerback Jackson gone, Hall, a junior, appears ready to become the stopper among the pass defenders.

 

 

"I think Leon Hall has a chance to be one of the better corners we've had here," Carr said. "He's made dramatic improvements."

 

The leader to fill the open cornerback position seems to be Grant Mason. Brandent Englemon appears to lead the competition for the vacant strong safety spot.

 

The final Michigan lineup, of course, won't be decided until fall camp, when the Wolverines will be far closer to the Sept. 3 opener against Northern Illinois than they were on a bright April day.
