I believe The Space Emperor's first year punting was 2006. Michigan ranked 57th in net punting. If we can get to the top half of that category with Hagerup in his first year I think that would be a solid freshman campaign.

FWIW every time I see his name I think Will HaNgerup Hang Time. I like to slip the "n" in to make it HANG...and I totally agree with you on the need of having a quality punter. It would also be nice if I knew his 40 time so I could be stoked about him maybe doing some fakes like zoltan in the ND and Minny game last year.

here ya go:

I like to slip the "n" in to make it HANGwill hagerup's new pickup line?
January 4th, 2010 at 3:02 PM ^
Oh thank god I'm not the only one who reads his name as Hangerup
January 4th, 2010 at 12:18 PM ^
Can we do the Boiler - up cheer every time he comes in to punt?
January 4th, 2010 at 12:25 PM ^
Please no. It's not a bad idea, I just hate that cheer with a passion.
January 4th, 2010 at 9:16 PM ^
Only when we play Purdue, and only then to make it clear how idiotic that fucking cheer is.
Hager-Up Choo Choo!
January 4th, 2010 at 12:26 PM ^
I really like that, we need to do somthing to fill the void of the Z hands. Too bad we dont play Purdue at home this year
January 4th, 2010 at 2:17 PM ^
how about the W from the forehead forward like the weiss chant at notre dame but substitute it with "will"

playing this year for IU in The Big House. I am tremendously excited about this kid. have we ever had such a physical specimen (a 6'4" ATHLETE) come in as a punter before? I think he'll be a total monster, and soon.
January 4th, 2010 at 1:18 PM ^
To remember the last time Michigan had an athletic punter who was at least 6'4", you need to think all the way back to mid November.

The United States Geological Survey has issued an ALERT WATCH for a "Hageruption" in our area. A watch means heightened/escalating unrest with increased potential for eruptive activity (timeframe variable) OR a minor eruption underway that poses limited hazards. Expect powerful explosions in which footballs travel faster than 800 mph and rise several miles into the air.
Stay tuned.

I like this. A lot.
January 4th, 2010 at 12:44 PM ^
Good Will Punting
January 4th, 2010 at 1:07 PM ^
I think it would be great if we have another punter good enough to let Hagerup redshirt. Gibbons was able to do that and it worked out until the Purdue game. Space Emperor also redshirted; just think an extra year with Barwis and he's already a big kid.

Stop
Hager time
January 4th, 2010 at 3:35 PM ^
this is great
January 4th, 2010 at 3:41 PM ^
But perhaps the "Prince of Space?" And yeah, he may as well change his name to Hangerup- they've probably already printed it that way on his jersey.....
January 4th, 2010 at 3:54 PM ^
But I'm quite happy knowing that we haven't had to punt yet this decade and I refuse to look forward to M punting.
