Ronald Acuña Jr. has a really good eye at the plate. His OBP is something he has improved. He just walked. Bottom of the 8th and the Braves are leading 5-2. It is tough to eat or go to bed until the game is over.
This was really fun--listening and then watching. The Spring Game videos look like someone recorded them on a cellphone from another cellphone. I can't comment on the volume because I haven't heard any of it, which is just fine.
The names Lick and Bounds are foreign to me, as are probably half of the names on the Michigan players' backs. A few, like Etta and Guy are ones I have heard but have not seen. I'll add another reason for the Spring Game to those listed below: to let a lot of guys play who will never see the field again.
Orji is the best quarterback: he brings an excellent running game and okay passing, plus the most experience and poise (save for Tuttle). Freshman Davis is an incomplete, cannot tell, probably not this year. Davis Warren, I don't see it; he is perhaps a passable back-up. He is not a runner or mobile, he doesn't even move his feet in the pocket. Denegal looks like a guy who will be remembered mostly as a Michigan (away) transfer.
Kalel Mullings is back and the same as last year which is a good thing. Edwards together with Orji and Mullings will be formidable or at least decent. I didn't see other runners who showed explosiveness or immediate promise.
Wide receivers are not dominant and neither is the passing game. Michigan has a couple-few slot receivers playing as wideouts and that's it.
Braves 5 Rangers 2 final.
Maybe Google is punishing me. I always use an ad blocker.
Blogger/blogspot won’t work (mgoblogging.blogspot.com). But now I
can log out (that works finally). Its Google and I have had it for about 20
years, so they'll probably fix it.
Surprisingly I enjoy listening to the game. There isn’t a lot of live or game-day information on it and that is probably a good thing. Every team does it and they are just a public practice. Don’t read too much from them.
That Youtube link is weird in that you cannot download it. So I was looking for a full video, can’t find one, but hit on what I hoped was a live or new Reddit thread. I don’t want to touch the Mgoblog message board (the place for news) until I make up my own mind. Per Reddit, “What is the point of the Spring Game?” The answer is a chance to hear the names of the players still around and other new ones who are good enough or have enough potential to make the field. If watching the video it will only look amateurish with the empty stands and identical uniforms on both sides. The audio works well.
They’ve been talking about Davis Warren for a while now. 17-7 6:00 left in the fourth quarter. It is hard to tell the quarter–save for the big clock on the screen and stats and stuff are of no interest, as is the score. Maize is leading Blue. They said he (Warren) “rifled” one for a TD. That is good news because the passing game aside from Colston Loveland is a question mark.
My prediction was Jack Tuttle. Alex Orji, Jayden Denegal and Jadyn Davis seem to be the names with Warren.
Pig Harbaugh, the guy who abandoned his team and alma mater, left a decent good team behind.
Donovan Edwards created som wow in the beginning. Fredrick Moore made a play. Chesson, there’s a finding! Jehu Chesson’s brother added as a graduate transfer. Four Michigan receivers are in the portal. They keep saying Jyaire Hill as the other cb and I’m learning spelling. Orji running; that is not a surprise. Orji and Warren are playing a lot.
Losing the entire offensive line could hurt; who knows, all these guys have been around forever and are top recruits. They are definitely going to miss Roman Wilson, Cornelious Johnson and the passing of J.J. McCarthy.
Now they’re saying Orji is “not bad” as a passer. Denegal, pause, pause means not good. Warren impressing, they say. Freshman Davis another pause and no comment.
Remember how Harbaugh started off. He inherited a good team and then found Jake Ruddock as an immediate grad transfer to make it an excellent team. Such a portal move was still rare nine years ago. Then he and the team made do–improved actually–with the eventual baby Cade McNamara at the helm. Finally, Harbaugh recruited and groomed McCarthy for a national championship.
Quarterback is key. I was able to download some Youtube videos; I’m curious if Orji looks better and capable all-around.
A number of new names have been mentioned. But again, they’re all via Harbaugh.
Will Sherrone Moore be just another Juwan Howard, meaning he does well with what he inherited but he cannot do it himself? That is my skepticism around a coach who has never done it before.
The Braves are on live and in HD. You can’t miss them right from the beginning. Specifically, pay attention when Ronald Acuna (jr with squiggly line) is on the screen or mentioned. He stole third! Marcell Ozuna is one of the best hitters in baseball right now. Bases loaded and no score. Maybe next inning.
C’mon, blogspot. I want to post this for my many fans on MgoBlogging!
And the Braves are up 3-2. Braves comebacks happen a lot. When I stopped watching for a while the Rangers had all kinds of men on base with no outs but it wasn't even a big inning. I don't know how the Braves did it but it isn't a surprise.
