2015 Stadium Introduction Video- Keep it or leave it?
https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=tPSUar7KvTc I love this video. I remember Jon Falk saying it made him cry and that it was what Michigan was all about. During the Hoke era, these videos would change every year, sometimes even every game. I hated them. You don't need a "hype video" at Michigan Stadium. But this video made me realize that it can be done beautifully. Despite the outcome, watching this before the OSU game with 113,000 of my best friends gave me chills.
My opinion on a "hype video" before a game is this: if we can't have this one, we shouldn't have one at all. What do you guys think? Despite the greatness of this video I prefer that we don't have one.January 9th, 2016 at 11:04 PM ^
I liked that they added updated highlights throughout the year. They can keep Vader voiceover and the Deveon Smith run vs BYU.

And by Darboh you mean Chesson and by catch you mean KO return for a TD

and by Allen you mean the entire D-Line and by PAT you mean the goal line stand vs Minnesota.

Well played, both of you.

Change it. Make it better. Never settle for great. Make today better than yesterday. Make tomorrow better than today. /Harbaugh'd

I still miss the thump of the bass drum prior to the team running out. Let's go blue

No more music, more band sound!

Seriously?! These are the greatest! I love, love, love them. They always give me chills before the game. Definitely need to keep them.

Keep the concept, but update it. Keep JEJ. Perhaps make just a touch more, maybe, modest?

Modesty is an old wooden ship, used in Civil War times.

I've always thought it would be great to have JEJ say "May the force be with you" because... hey... Darth Vader went to Michigan...(or at least his voice did)...

I always kind of shake my head at how people clap like seals at that part. We're a great school, but how about a little humility. I bet opposing fans really roll their eyes at that.

make sure we get some "motherfuckers" recorded too for special occasions against OSU

....and also cooler poopers.

Keep it, but add some voiceovers from former players as something that changes. Brady, Woodson, Dierdorf, others. Not too much, just enough to keep it fresh.
January 10th, 2016 at 12:34 AM ^
Every game it seems better.
Don't change a thing.
Don't apologize to Michigan's opponents, either.

I really do not understand the need for these videos. Don't really know why the MMB needs one, either.
But, this one is cool.

Have to tell you...I was at the Citrus Bowl and before the Florida band came out their hype video played on the big screen...and I thought "hey...how come our band didn't get to play their video before their entrance?' ...also I must say the Michigan video is better...but...WE WON THE GAME!

For what it's worth.

athletic side and academic side are inextricably linked although diametrically opposed...
But, you put the prowess of the two together, and I do believe UM is the greatest university.
My bias duly noted: I am a 2 time graduate and have lived 21 of my 45 years in or in close proximity to Ann Arbor.
In regards to the video, I thought it was chillingly awesome and made sure I was there early every time to see it. How about this system we know well: Open it up for competition to see if anyone can top it in content and magnetism. If not, then keep it.

It would be perfect to end it with Hokes "This is Michigan, fergodsakes"
