BREAKING NEWS: Report DB sought advice from Paul during CC search.

Paul the Octopus that is!

 

By big money he must of meant breaking out the big money in order to pay for Paul the Octopus to pick between Les and Brady.  He must have figured since Paul was so accurate in picking the winners for the World Cup that of course he'd be able to pick a winning coach for Michigan.  After Harbaugh bolted to the NFL DB was forced to decide between Les and BH, so what better way to decide than this.

The octopus died in October. Ol' Paul isn't sitting too well in the large intestine right now. He might have been a little "past his prime"...if you know what I mean.

Unless they mentioned the difference between squids and octopus' during orgo 1 then I think you meant to ask if he was a Bio major? Just curious. Not sure what arrow pushing, quantum mechanics, and titrations have to do with squids.

For a horrible moment, I thought this was going to be "The Apostle Paul", but then I realized that getting advice from Paul The Octopus would be just as well in a coaching search.....

Actually, I thought perhaps the Board Of Regents had consulted a Ouija board.
