WikiLeaks: New info re coaching change
Michigan Daily
Ann Arbor, February 6, 2011. New WikiLeaks documents surfaced in Cheyenne, Wyoming this morning that shed fresh information on AD Dave Brandon's decision to fire Coach Rich Rodriguez. To protect the identity of the leaker [editor's note: retired Wolverine's lyricist Stan Jones], the decisive moment has been redacted in lyrical form].
The AD's office was contacted this morning but refused comment. Coach Brady 'Hoss' Hoke at the Schembechler Spread was unavailable. Text of the lyrics follows.
=====================================================================
Ghost Buckeyes in the Sky
A new AD went riding out by Stadium and Main
A Process he did Ponder as he thought of old A-Train,
When all at once a mighty herd of Buckeye fiends he saw
A-plowing through Ann Arbor’s sky and up the Big House draw
Yippie yi yaaaaay
Yippie yi Ohhhhh
Ghost Buckeyes in the sky
Their Bribes were still on fire and their cleats were made of Steal
Their Nuts were gray and crimson and their hot breath he could feel
A bolt of fear went through him as they thundered through our sky
For the Wolverines were coming hard and he heard their mournful cry
Victors yi yaaaaay
Victors yi Ohhhhh
Ghost Buckeyes in the sky
Their faces gaunt, their eyes were blurred, their jerseys soaked with sweat
They’re riding hard to catch that herd, but they ain't caught 'em yet
'Cause they might just ride forever on that range up in the sky
On horses snorting fire as they ride on hear their cry
Victors yi Ohhhhh
Victorsy yi yaaaaay
Ghost Buckeyes in the sky
As Wolverines loped by him he heard one call his name
If you want to save your team from Hell a-riding on our range
Then Brandon change your Coach today or with us you will ride
Trying to catch the Tressel’s herd, across Ann Arbor’s skies
Victors yi Ohhhhh
Victors yi Yaaaaay
Ghost Buckeyes in the sky
Ghost Buckeyes in the sky
Ghost Buckeyes in the sky
