Since we've had a dearth of prime-time LBs recently (here's hoping Mouton, Ezeh, Herron, Brown, Fitz et al step up this year) I was very sad when Marcus Witherspoon didn't get into Michigan (do we really know the truth about what happened?) and ended up at Rutgers.  The evil injury-god has been plaguing him though...not just our guys.

NOTE:  I'm living here in North Carolina where it's all Carolina Blue and not Maize and Blue!!  Since I bleed maize and blue, I'm always in withdrawal when it comes to the football team, Ann Arbor and the University in general.  A client (who is a WVU grad) mentioned  - nicely - the other day that he hates RR and wishes nothing but ill will for him and now the UM football team.  Okay, I can understand how he feels (sales training) but I tried to impress upon him that one should always be on the lookout for a better job, girl, car, etc. and when RR saw the UM job open, of course he looked into it.  Unfortunately he didn't see things my way but since he's a client I did give him some half-serious fluff about the WVU program and what a powerhouse it is now. Calmed him down, thankfully.  After we chatted for a while longer, he told me about MGOBLOG (I had no idea).  Now I'm in heaven...it's my homepage on my home computer now.  Thanks Brian...keep it up.
