Darrin Kitchens was the only player to stick around after the loss. He didn't even play in the game.

1. The "OT" moniker means "off-topic" and is used to warn the reader that the thread contains material that is not specifically Michigan sports related material.
2. Football season has officially ended so many of the threads created are going to be considered "off-topic" until the fall.
3. I think most people would be interested in reading about this in case they missed it and, having to do with college football in general, the moderators would likely always let this kind of stuff stand absent extraordinary circumstances.

Agree with everything here...
but especially the third point. Even in on topic season, this wouldn't get taken down on a normal weekday during business hours; it's a feel good story about college athletics. If that's out of bounds to post, what do we have?
Unless someone wants to start making a ton more threads on WBB, wrestling, M/W gymnastics, and M/W swimming and diving to go along with the decent amount of hockey coverage and ton of content about MBB, there's going to be room for these kinds of threads on the board. By Brian's own guidelines, this is a more on topic post than anything on the Lions, Pistons, Red Wings or Tigers.

If everyone is saying the same thing, +1 and move on. But dammed if this kid doesn't deserve some credit. A lot of people a lot older could learn from him.

Team Pride
An excellent gesture of team spirit and leadership on Kitchens' part, and he didn't even need to play in the game to make a statement. It is a shame that no one else on the Gators' roster has that much team pride, from the look of things. Props and much respect to him.

Well done, indeed
This is the kind of player you make a captain and offer a GA position to after he graduates.
Good guy
Good for him, seeing him being a class act after being upset shows alot of what type of person he is.

If I am Muschamp, I'm getting that picture blown up and putting it on the locker of every other player....
Yeah, well,
Where's Muschamp in the pic?

That is a sweet picture.
To start a movement it only takes one guy to stand beside him. I wish I could have been there to be that guy.

Devotion to your school through win or loss and to be a part of something bigger than yourself. This guy is A+ class all the way. And he didn't even play. I'm speechless.
We hate Michigan State. We don't like Penn State too. We don't care for Minnesota, Wisconsin or Notre Dame but we all hate O-S-U.
