Take a minute today and cherish the young man who represents the University of Michigan at quarterback.
We're all going to miss you, lace.

Upon accepting his second Super Bowl MVP trophy, Tom Brady told the story yesterday of Jon Falk, the popular equipment manager at his alma mater, Michigan. Falk has collected so many rings that he's always asked, "Which is your favorite?"
His standard response: "The next one."

That's a good question
That's a good question
That's a good question though... what do y'all think? That one last saturday was one of the most impressive, since he did a little shaking and baking, while outrunning defenders. The most memorable to me was the big run at ND two years ago, probably because that was his coming out party in my eyes.
Touchdown Michigan!

It has to be his long run

It has to be his long run against ND. Maybe not the most impressive as far as running skill (he basically went between two blocks and then was fast), but certainly the most important to a big game, and the most visible nationally.

That run was the last play of that game that I watched before going into the delivery room for the birth of my daughter. I've never been happier for a game to turn into a blowout so quickly.

The ND one was probably the most memorable because of the game importance. But lest we forget the first time Denard touched the ball against Western Michigan he scored.

That one gets my vote. It can't get any better than pulling off a long TD run against your biggest rival (whose defense wasn't too shabby). Until that game, OSU fans talked endless trash about Denard. That game and that run shut them up.

As far as I can calculate,
As far as I can calculate,
As far as I can calculate, Denard only needs 450 yards rushing to take first spot in most yards rushing by a QB (overtake Pat White's 4,480 yards). Tremendous!!

My favorite is the one from November 2012 against OSU
My favorite is the one from November 2012 against OSU
Backed up deep in our own end, down by 5, with under a minute to play, Denard is flushed from the pocket, fakes a throw to get the onrushing LB into the air, and then goes around and through the entire OSU defense for the winning TD. The lamentation of the Columbus women can be heard clearly on national TV.

Notre Dame, 2010, 87 yard run
Notre Dame, 2010, 87 yard run to go up 21-7. Denard's had a lot of great moments, but that was the man's coming out party. That run essentially solidified his status as a household name in the college football world.
It's been a lot. Its been a roller coaster that for some reason seemed like it would never get good. But you know what? We kept fighting. It's like that old saying goes, "Those Who Stay Will Be Champions." -David Molk

His first one!
His first one!
Western Michigan. The whole world lined up against Michigan football. Mark Snyder of the Free Press having predicted a Michigan loss that day.
Denard in the shotgun. His first play on the field in Michigan Stadium. Takes the snap from center, drops the ball, and promptly runs for a touchdown. There would be other touchdowns, other great runs, other big games. But this, the first, was incomparable.
