also, is Eminem a Michigan fan?
...talks about how UConn hasn't been in contact and how they're out. (HT: UMHoops)
remember him and Lloyd became friends a few years ago.
What the Hell. -Jack Burton
ARod is a fan of the University of Miami... IIRC, he donated money to build their new baseball stadium.
EDIT: I didn't neg you.
Derek Jeter -- a Michigan student for a semester IIRC before the Yankees called. Also a proud Kalamazoo Central Maroon Giant.
Only missed one game at the Big House since 1979.
I hadn't realized that he had ever enrolled, but you are correct, he attended for a semester before leaving for the minors: http://sportsillustrated.cnn.com/baseball/mlb/features/jeter/timeline/
In another article, he talks about attending every football and basketball game (when the fab 5 were sophomores) that fall; no wonder he's a huge fan!
PS: Yay Kalamazoo!
He was a friend of mine's roommate for that semester. Then Mikey got the room to himself for the rest of the year. :-)

I think Felicity Huffman of all people has been seen sporting Michigan gear.
...you'll never be one in anyone else's.
Because then you could count all our celebrity alums. James Earl Jones and the like. (Personal favorite? Lucy Liu).
I keep seeing pics of Leonardo DiCaprio with an M hat on. But he may just like the colors.

Ss he says, "my wrist blue and yellow like Michigan"
It's only yellow because there is no such thing as maize diamonds.

That doesn't make him a Michigan "fan" because he knows what our colors are. He's a sports fan. Wale says he "protects Hart like Michigan's line" in song. He also raps about Ernest Wilford of the Jaguars and nobody accuses him of being a huge Jags fan (he's a DC guy). Both of these guys are huge sports fans -- you'll see them on First Take -- not Michigan fans, despite name drops in songs.
On the other hand, I saw Luke Walton and Richard Jefferson at the Michigan @ Notre Dame Football Game in Denard's Sophomore year, sitting in the Michigan section. I think they have some sort of connection. Shane Battier is married into a prominent Michigan family and I've seen him around Ann Arbor a few times. He's a Dukie obviously, but I think may be a M football fan.
Twin Cities
of "60 Minutes" went to Michigan I believe. He's DEFINITELY a "down in front" kinda guy.
What the Hell. -Jack Burton
False - I sat next to him at a football game when I was in high school. A former regent had given me his tickets, and Mike Wallace was two seats away. He was totally cool.
are Michigan fans. They opened with Hail to the Victors when they played a concert in Columbus once. Ballsey and awesome.
Is that all the RHCP or just Anthony Kiedis? I know he's from Grand Rapids
Oprah's Minge.
...because of him. They vacation on Lake Michigan a lot during the summer.
I think he went to Lahser.
There's that too. The RHCP are pretty much awesome in every way.
I remember reading an article about Rich Rodriguez and Jamie Foxx eating dinner together in Chicago. Maybe he is a fan?
I will probably get negged for this, but I think that Taylor kid from the twilight movies is a Michigan fan. He grew up on the west side. Obligatory disclaimer? Yes: my sister is 15 so that's how I came upon this info.
On a better note, Mini Me was at a spring game one time so ye must be a fan.
And maybe Hugh jackman? I only say that because of the xmen movies and have no factual basis.
Those Who Stay...
They had a Twilight kid ask "Dr. Lou" a question and it was about RR and UofM....So you may be right.
What the Hell. -Jack Burton
He's Taylor Lautner from Hudsonville MI - a little Dutch farmtown outside of Grand Rapids. No word on if he's a M fan but I'd assume so.
Just so you know, I'm not a Twilight fan but I live by there so that's how I know where he's from.
Not that there's anything wrong with that.
"But it is better to live here in sackcloth and ashes than to own the whole state of Ohio."

Actually he's went to high school in Norton Shores a suburb of Muskegeon, and I only know this because my girlfriend went to high school with him. So IDK where he was born but he grew up in Muskegeon, and I've heard he was a state fan.
UM football is my heroine
He's also totally cute. And I only know, because I am also a vampire. xoxoxo

My bad on my first post...
Vern troyer = mini me
I tried to edit it but it was too late.

Not much on here that hasn't already been mentioned but I figured I'd throw it out anyway...

Rich Eisen fron ESPN and NFL network (went to Michigan) and I think Adam Schefter. I've seen him on Sportscenter with a UM helmet in the background on his bookshelf.
"I tried to but a pencil in the light socket but it was too wide and didn't fit so I used a paperclip."-Terrelle Pryor, Future Rhodes Scholar
Never knew this before (from Wiki):
"A graduate of the University of Michigan and Northwestern University's Medill School of Journalism, Schefter was an editor at the Michigan Daily."
Even more interesting:
"It was so hard to get a job. When I was in college, you couldn’t have done more than I did to get a job in journalism. I was the sports editor with Rich Eisen of The Michigan Daily — we were co-sports editors along with some other people. I was working for the Ann Arbor News covering high school games on the weekends. I was Mitch Albom’s research assistant. I was stringing for the Detroit Free Press doing news updates for them from the Michigan campus. I was sending out resumes to every single newspaper in the country and I truly could not get a single job anywhere. I always tell people that there’s a bar on the Michigan campus called Dominick’s that for every rejection letter you have, they give you a drink. I had so many rejection letters I could’ve owned the bar. I went to graduate school at Northwestern to get my masters in journalism only because I could not get a full time job. There was nobody that would hire me."
I think you meant "(sp?)"
Sic is Latin for "as such." It's used when quoting someone who used an incorrect or archaic spelling of a word.
