1500 wins

Submitted by Wolverine Devotee on

With Michigan's 56-54 win over Northwestern, they now have 1500 all-time victories.

Another program milestone that happened this season was 900 all-time home victories. That was accomplished against Syracuse back in the B1G/ACC Challenge.

If Wikipedia is accurate at all that makes Michigan either #51, #50 or #52 on the all time wins list in D1 college basketball. Right next to Wisconsin and Minnesota...  

I don't believe the list has been updated to reflect the current season though.

Actually we don't claim as many national titles as we could.  From the advent of the AP poll (in 1936) we only claim titles that have been voted on from them or the coaches.  There were some organizations that awarded us the 1973 title, for instance (when we went 10-0-1), but we don't recognize it.

EVERYONE, QUICK!!! Google "Wolverine Devotee" and go to images. Funniest most nostalgic thing you'll ever see!

This is so awesome. I'm not even clicking to see where the pictures are from, that makes it more fun...just seeing what's associated with "Wolverine Devotee" and assuming it's something he posted is enough.

I expect you to be on that show one day on B1G Network about super fans. You'll be right up there with Buck I Guy, Buckeye Man and the Big Nut or w/e...

So I read your post and thought what a cool idea.  I wonder what images Google will present if i punch in my user name so I went and did it.

When i say WD came out ahead on this particular contest it would be a massive understatement.  All mine showed was image after image of cartoons featuring really, really old people.

Sigh.....

One of the things I've been getting more into is glasses from bowl games or championships.

Pint glasses, usually. You can see one of the shelves of glasses I have in the frame there.

I have one from the 1947 National Championship season. Have one from most of the Rose Bowls under Bo. Still looking for a 1984 Sugar Bowl glass. I know it's out there because I've seen one before but didn't grab it.

MDen did a pint glass for the Basketball B1G Championship last year. I'm pretty annoyed that they didn't do for the 2011-12 B1G championship. That one meant more to me despite last year's team being the better of the two.

WD's rise, fall and phoenix-like rebirth to the pinnacle of MGoUsers (Dear Leader and a couple others aside of course) has been nothing short of miraculous. I'm honored to have been a witness.
