Really glad Barrett stuck around, that means we have a good shot to beat them next year.

Yeah I saw that. I don't think he's making the right choice. He needs more work in coverage skills. He'll get drafted, but 23rd seems way too high. Hopefully he has a huge combine.

I am of the opinion that if you for sure are going to be drafted then you can't really make a mistake by declaring. Go make that money. I said at the time Jalin and Tyvis were making a mistake and that seemed backed up when they went undrafted but look at them sitting on an NFL roster and earning praise from their coaches.

I think if McMillan ends up with an official 3rd round grade, he may come back. Another year under Schiano would do him a LOT of good, especially in regards to pass coverage.
The NFL only gives these two grades: Round 1 or 2; Return to school.

766 total yards and 8 TDs in 3 games, bitch
You had to lump them together because you know how he played this year without offensive superstars around him. 15 for 32, 0 TDs and 1 INT. I'll take that any year.

So he had a bad game this year and you completely ignore the other two? Point remains, Barrett has played pretty darn well over the course of his career despite recent struggles. Do you think it would have been ok for @7Samurai13 to say "I'm glad Zeke is returning for his senior year bc he had a bad game against is in 2015?"

Bitch ran away so that he could face weaker D-lines in the NFL.

He's lost 2 B1G games in 3 years as a starter. I'll take that for any career.

There are people on your team that scare me, he is not one of them. So I'm glad he's not being replaced with someone good.

I'm of the opinion a revamped offensive coaching staff will be the key to Barrett returning to form.

If he ever loses to you guys, it will be the first time. 3-0 as a starter.

Don't care if you are afraid.

There is theory, and there is testimony. One of these things is not like the other.

Just because a player is undefeated against us, doesn't mean he's individually good.

We're not talking about the left guard here . . . he's the starting qb, and you guys would kill to have someone as good as he.

Yes. In order to determine that, one would have to look at his career stats against Michigan. Which happen to be pretty good

We did have someone better. Speights passer rating this season was 139.76, Barrett's was 135.31. And that's even with Speight's shoulder injury.

Come on MnB. Stop being a delusional homer for one second and just admit you would remove an extremity to have a QB with the starting numbers and record in his career against Ohio State.

The only reason I would say yes to that is Barrett's ability to run. Not because he showed anything passing-wise to suggest he's the better QB.
