Just days before Chad Carr lost his battle with brain cancer, ESPN came to Ann Arbor to document his story for a segment that was set to air on its Saturday morning College GameDay program.

The network announced that the feature will air Saturday, Nov. 28, at about 10:10 a.m., ahead of the Michigan-Ohio State game's noon kickoff.

Agree, he's generally quite unbiased. So much so he had to move away from cbus.

A reminder that around 10:10 gameday will do a Chad Carr tribute. I'm sure it will be good, he had an amazing fight and his young life impacted the lives millions. A nice gesture by ESPN to show respect. I'm sure young Chad will be sitting next to Bo today as we beat Ohio St, Go Blue.

I don't think I am exaggerating at all when I say that any one of my cats probably gives a better, more expressive interview than Nick Saban. It gets to a point where you wonder if they just set the microphone and then walk to a locked room so the droning won't lull anyone into an unconscious state.

What an inspiring story. Amazing job by ESPN. Reminds me what is important in life beyond football. He left his mark on me, on my family, on michigan, and the entire country. ChadTough.

I never met that boy, but I still teared up like it was a family member. It's going to happen again before The Game when they have the moment of silence. Terrific job by the ESPN crew.

The Chad Carr segment was hard to get through. That kid was the bravest person I've ever seen, even if he didn't know he had to be. Thoughts go out to his family. I thank them for being so strong and brave.
