White. Great to hear that on National TV. NBC just did a nice little piece on him and Meryl Davis. Lots of shots of Michigan. Good stuff.

Notice he only said "a Michigan football game". Presumably, a win, a winning season, B10 title, and a NC would all still be ahead of a gold medal. His priorities are in place for the most part.

Emily Samuelson & Evan Bates were also introduced as UofM sophomores. The commentator(s) managed to sneak in a mention of the U or Ann Arbor in the intros of each performance of both teams through the three nights of competition. (In case some of you guys were watching hockey last night.) Nice to get those shots of the campus with a blatant Block M. Nice too that both teams skated terrifically.

I will not take one thing away from the Canadian gold medalists... they absolutely deserved it. But Charlie and Meryl were absolutely brilliant. Their artistry, chemistry (both between themselves and with the audience), their choice of music and choreography thereof.... it left me in tears. What a joy to watch. They definitely have "it"... whatever it actually is.

Later when asked about how he would've felt if Davis and himself would have to settle for the Bronze medal, White commented, "Probably a little like being stuck as a student at Ohio State, glad I don't have to know that feeling. Go Blue!"
