In michigan insider under the title "Unacceptable loss to OSU fueling michigan in spring practice" the writer wrote this litany of excuses for losses by michigan in the harbaugh era. This is one of the more pronounced instances of lame excuse making that I have ever read and it is bred throughout their rotten program. The reason they don't have any success with their program is the mentality that every loss was based on some circumstance vs sacking up and putting loses on your on shoulders and doing something about it. This is a truly pathetic paragraph for a pathetic football program
"Throughout much of Jim Harbaugh's tenure, most of Michigan’s losses could likely be deemed as justifiable, if not forgivable. Losses to Utah in 2015 and Penn State and Wisconsin in 2017 were road defeats when Michigan wasn’t ready. Losses to Michigan State in 2015 and Iowa and Ohio State in 2016 were last-second, arguably exceptional losses. The Buckeyes were better in 2015 and 2017, while Michigan was out All-Americans and future first-round draft picks in bowl losses to Florida State (2016) and Florida (2018). Even 2017 losses to Michigan State and South Carolina were at least by a team too inexperienced and entrenched in rebuilding, and a seven-point road loss at eventual playoff participant Notre Dame’s house to open the season isn’t beyond reason."
Wouldn't it be nice to put a big X through losses by Mark Dantonio using phrases like Michigan State wasn't ready.....are you F'ing kidding me? What does that mean?
