Not necessarily Michigan-related, but certainly news for future recruiting classes, I suppose. 

EDIT: Don't know why link doesn't work, but someone else a whole lot smarter than I am can fix that.

Yep: Patterson, Fedora, and Gundy.  With Jon Tenuta and Randy Shannon as DCs.

From reading the articles about Brother Rice in the playoffs this season, though, I thought the idea was that he was gonna retire this year.

Interception by Stevie Brown!!  2nd pick of the game

Related to this post, Sam Webb had an article on 2015 QB Alex Malzone of BR.  He split time with a senior QB this year, but came on in the playoffs.  If Sam's writing about him, he's likely legit.  Early Bonus: his folks have season tickets to the Big House http://www.detroitnews.com/article/20121207/OPINION03/212070427/1361/Brother-Rice-QB-Alex-Malzone-a-rising-star-in-2015-class

I believe he retired from Brother Rice, but stayed on as football coach. I think I've read that he's the only coach they've ever had.
