I wish SOMEONE would do something. It makes me feel sick and helpless that this debacle is allowed to continue and find new rock bottoms every week.  

It just doesn't seem like Michigan, them not stepping in and fixing this. 

I just want to have hope again.

While we're at it....sign it, don't sign it, it is up to you. But this exists, and if you have a UMID you can sign it. I'm not longer a student and I could still sign it, so it's worth a try even if you're a few years removed.

I was nervous to start a new thread on this because I rarely post on MGoBlog. I just read.

EDIT:  I do not know how much this will help things, but I'm someone who really dislikes the idea of boycotting games because I still want to support our players. That said, if this gets big enough (and it's growing quickly) hopefully a media outlet will pick it up and run with it.

I signed and graduated in 2010 so it seems to be anybody that has a uniqname.

Maybe makes sense to make a thread since with this community's support that thing could grow to 2,000+ names real quickly and ramp up even more pressure. The coaching staff seems like a symptom of the problem that is the AD; we also won't be able to get a new head coach with Mr. Brandon still at the helm so it makes sense to sign this petition.

If it's still not a thread by tomorrow I may just make it a thread negs be danged.

I am number 1592. 

If you're not in AA to attend the rally, then at least sign this. And don't just sign, share it on social media. We all have friends who love UM but might not otherwise hear about this. Pass the word along. Fuck this guy, we've all hated his guts for years. Let's make some noise.

We need a name for this week. We'll be looking back at it for a long time. Cokegate, terrible football, Morris incident, the statement, the missing statement, DB MIA, boycotts, Brian for regent. Somehow our most hyped recruit in a long time not even showing up for a home game is somehow news item number 8 or 9.

I actually feel like Brian can do a greater service to Michigan by continuing to grow and develop this blog. There would be a conflict of interest if he was a regent and it would probably force him to step aside, at least to some degree. By continuing to grow the blog, Brian can serve as the best voice of the fans and students.

Alum from UM with two grad degrees from 74 and 84, BUT no user id or password. Don't even know how I would go about getting one. I'm old, but I'm feisty.
