In honor of this huge Day in recruiting

In honor of this huge day in recruiting, I thought it only appropriate to bring out a little Grantland Rice, and you guys know where I'm going with this. I think we all can indulge ourselves today, in what is a very steep and rich tradition of football that we all love.

"I remember the stand at Thermopylae

the Greek Guard made one day;

I remember the legions that Caesar used

To shatter the Gallic sway;

And I remember across those years

Two banners that crowned the crest,

When Yale was king of the conquered East,

And Michigan ruled the West.

At night in my humble den I dream

Of the glories that used to be-

Of Hannibal taking the Alpine Trail,

Of Drake on the open sea;

And then I wander the ancient ways

To a dream I love the best,

When Yale was king of the conquered East,

And Michigan ruled the West."
