������ inside michigan athletics They Said It ��� Running backs coach Fred Jackson on why he doesn���t put much stock in recruiting rankings ���Mike Hart taught me rankings didn���t mean anything. I had to really beg Lloyd Carr to take him because nobody else wanted him. Now he���s the alltime leading rusher in this school���s history. I guess that���s why rankings don���t mean much to me.��� ���Today, it���s getting increasingly more difficult for receivers to run by corners. You don���t see it as much as you used to, where a guy runs by them, you throw the bomb and you score a touchdown. So often the ball is thrown short, inside or outside, and the guy goes and gets the ball whether it���s high, low, or just stops to adjust to it. And the bigger the guy, the better shot you���ve got.��� ��� U-M offensive coordinator Al Borges on Michigan signing a 6-2, 6-3 and 6-4 wide receiver photo by per kjeldsen ���I���m not sure what the Fab Five was. They never won anything. They never won a championship, they didn���t get anywhere, they got beat.��� ��� Former Indiana head coach and current ESPN analyst Bob Knight during a telecast of Alabama-Arkansas Jan. 31 ���Do you remember where Michigan���s basketball team was ranked on Jan.�� 27 two years ago? Well, I���ll save you the trouble: They were ninth ��� in the Big Ten standings.���
