On this day....46 years ago

Submitted by DFW_Michigan_Man on
Don Canham said "Bo, I'm offering you the job", to which Bo replied "Good". Is it simply a coincidence that Hackett and Michigan officials are out on the left coast to talk to Harbaugh on the anniversary of that fateful day? I think not! Hackett has been masterful in his pursuit of Jim and just continues to do all the right things!

Greeks for Harbaugh

This is absolutely awesome. I can't really believe this is happening. Hopefully Harbaugh creates many like himself, and leaves us a couple more from the Bo lineage to continue Michigan success.

Nice! And the day before that on December 26, 1968, the greatest band to ever walk the earth played their first show in the USA for $5. Hail to the Victors and Hail to Zeppelin.

I'm quite ready to bring an end to our ND-esque Journey Through The Wilderness. Time to resume our tradition of excellence. Long live Coach Harbaugh! Huzzah! Huzzah! (But fingers crossed just in case - no jinxies)

And had Canham waited about a week after Dec. 27, 1968, we may very well have had Paterno and his "charitable" defensive coordinator Jerry Sandusky leading our players on to the field at the big house.

Still pretty amazed how close we dodged that bullet.

I'll be honest - I didn't even realize this was the anniversary of Bo's hiring, but hopefully a similar exchange is happening out in California right now. What a symbolic day in Michigan history indeed, if the arrangements are being worked out right now. Of course, the headline the next day in 1968 was "Bo Who?" as I recall, but the headline for this - if we're right - would have to be, well, "It's Happening!"
