Welcome to the Vault Network forum archive.

This is not a complete archive, time didn't allot us the opportunity to properly backup the majority of the boards deemed "expendable". Most boards on this list have at least 20-40 pages archived (non-logged in pages, 15 topics per page).

Popular boards may have as many as 250 pages archived at 50 topics per page, while others deemed of historical signifigance may be archived in their entirety.

We may not agree with how the board shutdown was managed, but we've done what we could to preserve some of its history in lieu of that.

	Sadly I probably could have just bumped last years~! I fully expected it to still be on page one.......haha. So yea, here we go again with my bold predictions on my UNDEFEATED and obviously back to "Elite" program status Michigan Wolverines! It is doubtful that they will lose a game the ENTIRE season! Especially with "3 time Heisman shoe-in (ROFL PUN INTENDED~)'Shoelace' Denard Robinson running the show in Ann Arbor! OK so we rolled Western Michigan and ONLY needed 3 quarters to do it before they said Uncle! We then put a beating on Notre Dame, who by merit of their win over Michigan State today, was obviously far underrated and the two teams they lost to this season were obviously just FAR superior teams, perhaps top ten in the nation! Then today, those snarly Wolverines laid a beat down on perennial powerhouse and national title contender Eastern Michigan. Yes, it is quite obvious that the Wolverines have arrived..........(err or is it re-arrived?) as the 'class' of the Big-Ten and most elite program in the nation. With victories such as the 3 already this season, Brady Hoke working his miracles to turn the program around to elite ALREADY, and the best player in college football at QB in Denard Robinson. I fully expect that Michigan will be ranked in AT LEAST the top 10 after this weekend. It feels good to be back! K, enough of my hijinks and hilarity. Here's the real deal! Michigan still sucks. Perhaps more now than they did under Rich Rod. Perhaps, however, because they're on square one of a new rebuilding program whereas Rich Rod was on step 3 of failing to ever turn the cryptogram back around. What we have learned so far. Hoke and his staff have reminded us that there is IN FACT two sides to a football team, offense and DEFENSE!?@ Many of us had to look the term defense up and the years of Rich Rod wherein the defense was completely AWOL and nobody seemed to care.....specifically Rich Rod. We have also been reminded that special teams are a 3rd facet to the game that is important and NOT a team made up of special needs children that could have given Rich Rod coached Michigan teams a real run for their money. Michigan is horrible and this 3-0 record is a mirage that will quickly disappear once they play ANY team that belongs in Div 1A. The defense is still horrible but at least Michigan seems to acknowledge that it exists and is important to a teams chances. Denard is HORRIBLE. He 'might' be the 'most exciting player in college football' according to some who called the ND/Michigan game. But he does NOT posses the skill to be a quality NCAA quarterback. His passes are horrible and completing one is pure luck. Many Michigan fans want to move him to slot receiver or running back thinking that his dynamic play could lead to great things! People with common sense, however, realize that he got knocked out of at least 9 games last season due to hits, he doesn't have the stamina to be a RB or WR in college football. He has NO career in the NFL so he better be using his scholarship at Michigan to its fullest to get a quality education. Naybe Hokes plan will come to fruition and Michigan will rebuild into something nice in a couple of years. Not seeing it as of right now. in fact, what most of us see is a man scared to implement the type of offensive scheme he said he wanted to play because it doesn't fit the person they have at QB who CANNOT play in the fore mentioned scheme, so instead they run a dumbed down version of Rich Rod's spread to suit Denard's style, or lack thereof. That is all, sorry to drone on. See you next year for the update~! GO BLUE~ IMPORTANT EDIT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Last years Michigan post in on Page 3........LOL Man this board sees too much action! -----signature----- An ideal form of government is democracy tempered with assassination---Voltaire If God has made us in his image, we have returned him the favor. ---Voltaire

	Well.....much to my chagrin...they're not as big as frauds as I thought they were! Got the 3rd best possible BCS bowl (as I see it). No, they're still not that good but what Hoke did with marginal (at best) talent, bodes well for the future when he gets people into his system(s) that work. As the chant went in their undefeated championship season of '97 "It's great to be a Michigan Wolverine...." -----signature----- An ideal form of government is democracy tempered with assassination---Voltaire If God has made us in his image, we have returned him the favor. ---Voltaire
