Elliott Mealer (and his beard) Graduate

I know that Mr. Mealer and his beard have a lot of fans on the site and that the Mealer family story has held our interest for these past many years. This picture from today's Record Update is inspiring on many levels, and I thought some may enjoy it. Congratulations, Elliott.

Congratulations to Elliott Mealer on his graduation from Michigan. As other have said, it is always a great moment when a Michigan Man receives his diploma, and he and the other players that will graduate with him in this class (whether it is yesterday or at Spring Commencement) have been through much together, so it seems especially great to see them get the most important item of all for their time here in Ann Arbor.

Go Blue, Mr. Mealer!
