Seeking: Those Who Stay banner/sign/flag
Looking for some sort of official flag/sign/banner thing that says "Those Who Stay Will be Champions". Looks like MDEN used to have one and that would be fine, but its not accessible anymore https://www.mden.com/product/University_of_Michigan_Those_Who_Stay__Will_Be_Champions_Banner?COG5735+2015
Obviously prefer something officially licensed, but if anyone has a link to something unofficial that's awesome, please share too.

that was one of the sayings in our dressing room at yost. i assume they still have it somewhere, either there or the big house or some other U of M place. guessing there's a photo somewhere on the interweb that you could use?

Take your pick - "Those Who Stay Will Be Champions".

back in the day (can't believe its been more than 40 years) the signs in the dressing room were very modest. they weren't the fancy back-lit, giant letter ones, but more like this:
the three that always stuck with me were the 'those who stay', like above, and two others that have never left me:
1. you're either getting better, or you're getting worse
2. discipline, drive, desire
that last one my kids liked so much that years ago they made a pretty slick print of it and have it on the wall in the basement, next to where all weights/squat rack/bench press stuff is.

Wots is that a bunch of current players started following Texas coaches (sark). Kenneth Grant and others. Losing Herbert being cited as the possible reason

Google "Kenneth Grant to Texas" if you want to throw up
January 31st, 2024 at 10:54 PM ^
So far all I see is a tweet from @MichiganNation2 which is a bullshit source. Don't give the rumor trolls any oxygen.

Know thy enemy, we play Texas 9/7/24

Try Etsy. There are a ton of options. Just type in “those who stay will be champions.”.
January 31st, 2024 at 10:42 PM ^
Will do as second option - trying to find something official if possible.

I sell official licensed merchandise on Etsy. Not Michigan stuff, but one of the big 3 automotive manufacturers.
February 1st, 2024 at 1:37 PM ^
Interesting - I guess it makes sense as just another sales channel. I will search.

Try calling the Ann Arbor MDen and see if they’ll ship one to you. They were in stock at the store back in October. Maybe they’re all sold out and discontinued. Otherwise, I’m not sure why it wouldn’t be available online.
January 31st, 2024 at 10:52 PM ^
Thanks for the pointer! Will try.

It's not a "Those Who Stay Will be Champions" banner, but I created my own banner with each of the helmet stickers from the 15 wins.
I also made my own simple sweatshirt:

Very creative ---I think you just out-WD'd WD.
And I mean this in a good way.

Is that the official helmet sticker design for #1004? I was wondering if Valiant would make a shirt like this one but with the NC sticker design... but I might just make my own instead...
February 1st, 2024 at 2:39 PM ^
Yes - it is the official sticker. I took it from a screen shot of an instagram post from the official football account:

I recently took this photo at an Andy Summers of The Police concert. The b&w backdrop image was taken by him with Stewart Copeland resting on his hands. Must have when The Police played Crisler Arena April 7, 1982.
February 1st, 2024 at 2:24 AM ^
The locker nameplate states Klasson. Probably Eric Klasson 1982 Wrestling.. So must be Crisler sign from 1982 era.
February 1st, 2024 at 8:57 AM ^
Weird, they must have just very recently taken the listing down, because I bought one from Mden just a week or so before The Game this season.
February 1st, 2024 at 10:41 AM ^
That gives me a lot more hope that its just a temporary thing rather than a discontinued item. Thanks!
February 1st, 2024 at 11:13 AM ^
Actually, several are available on Ebay.
February 1st, 2024 at 11:17 AM ^
Would prefer one with only the quote on it, like the MDEN one - haven't seen one like that on eBay, please share if found.
Also prefer new, direct from retailer if possible.
