Great article on the McCray family

Submitted by APBlue on

Great article in the Detroit News this morning about the interesting dynamic within the McCray family: dad, a former OSU captain and Mike, a Michigan captain.

Dad re: wearing Michigan colors/gear:

“As long as Mike’s there, I’ll wear it. Do I love Ohio State and appreciate everything about Ohio State, yes, but my love for my son is bigger than that. That’s the way it is. My love for my family is more important than anything.”

 

Sounds like a great family.

Lead this defense on Saturday!  Gonna be some big hits and big plays by this D all year.  Pick 6?  Sack in the endzone with a fumble for a TD.  Could see it all!!

GO BLUE!!

That said, he did tell his wife that once the season is over and their son’s career at Michigan has concluded, it will be time to go back to wearing scarlet and gray. “But she said, ‘I’m not going back,’” McCray said with a laugh. “She said she’s not going back to Ohio State. She likes Michigan. Her son has more power than me.”
Great article, thanks for sharing. Very special for the McCray family
