Since we won't be having football this fall I am using my fall Saturdays to work on my basement. I am planning to paint the best Michigan quotes on the walls interspersed with some memorabilia. 

 

So far my list includes:

But do let me reiterate the spirit of Michigan. It is based upon a deathless loyalty to Michigan and all her ways; an enthusiasm that makes it second nature for Michigan men to spread the gospel of their university to the world's distant outposts; a conviction that nowhere is there a better university, in any way, than this Michigan of ours. -Fielding H. Yost

Tradition is something you can't bottle.You can't buy it at the corner store.But it is there to sustain you when you need it most.I've called upon it time and time again.And so have countless other Michigan athletes and coaches.There is nothing like it.I hope it never dies. -Fritz Crisler

No man is more important than The Team. No coach is more important than The Team. The Team, The Team, The Team, and if we think that way, all of us, everything that you do, you take into consideration what effect does it have on my Team? -Bo

Those who stay will be Champions -Bo

Football is a religion and Saturday is the holy day of obligation. -Ufer

 

What are your favorites?

'Would I ever coach college basketball?' My answer has always been, 'There's only one job. There's only one school that I would look back and pursue at the collegiate level. That's the University of Michigan.' - Juwan Howard

True loyalty is that quality of service that grows under adversity and expands in defeat. Any street urchin can shout applause in victory, but it takes character to stand fast in defeat. One is noise - the other, loyalty.
