I'm not sure on this one...he appears to be a good guy sometimes, but this is the same douchebag that announced that Miles had accepted the Michigan job back in '08, the same DB that said Purdue was the class of the B1G this season, and the same guy that played football for Ohio.

Not saying he's a bad dude, but not ready to give him a pass either.

Thank you, Coach Hoke, for bringing Michigan back.
