Spring Game set for April 13th

Are you kiddin' me? I was just calling people at Mott like 5 minutes ago asking this same question and they said it wasn't released yet.

Errrbody better plan on attending because we're planning to have an event this year with it.

this needs to be kept on the front page somewhere, even if it's just the date somewhere to avoid the hundreds of threads between now and April asking if anyone knows when the game is.

I wonder...will we have enough depth for a two-team format? Third time's a charm.

the spring game. I wait months to see a scrimmage I am consistently underwhelmed with, but at least it's football!

I love having it to look forward to. Hopefully it's a nice day this year.

It's Michigan football, and it's spring! Which means winter is over with! Oh and it's Michigan football!

However, I don't expect to see Fitz back at 100% even by the fall. That was a horrible injury. I feel bad for the kid. Others will pass him on the depth chart.

for the game/scrimmage this year, I hope it's a game though. 3rd season for the staff, getting their imprint on the the program, a better indicator of what the future will look like.

I'm excited to see the guys who RS'd, like Chesson, Drake Johnson and the O-Linemen, etc., as well as freshmen who played sparingly last year like Darboh.

I coach HS baseball and only have 2 Saturday's with games this year, and of course one is scheduled for the 13th...kick in the scrote

Who is QB for the other team? Is Bellamy recovered from his "condition"? Didnt Jack Kennedy graduate?



(And by "condition" I dont mean "lacks talent").

A kids day in the spring or is that somewhere around fall camp. My son will be 4 in March and I would like to give him his first trip to the Big House....I too coach baseball and probably have a game on the 13th, hoping kids day or something similar is in the fall.

spring games and despite my strong desire to be entertained, I have not been entertained.  A friend of mine were discussing and it just seems like they don't really try and make it fun for the people that attend.  I know that may not be the primary reason for the spring game, but it would have been cool to see something like a punting competition, or "long ball" - which QB could throw the farthest. 

I realize these requests might be a bit juvenile/sophomoric, but it's just hard to get excited about the spring game when they run the ball up the middle 50 times in a row or just run short 5 yard pass plays every time.

It'll be interesting to see how the passing game looks during the spring game, especially if Darboh and Chesson can stretch the field some.

they should just stop the spring game until they are for sure doing a game not just practice. its a waste of a lot of peoples time the last few years,and frankly its sad compared to Ohio's spring game.

Big day. 

Michigan hosts ohio in lacrosse after the Spring Game in Battle at The Big House II like last season. And then baseball will host penn state over at Fisher.

Plenty of things to do that day. It's a 3 jersey changer for me. 

I think lack of depth on the O and D-lines, were the biggest obstacles to doing an actual game, so hopefully this year we'll see more of a traditional game.

I think there is an element of intrigue to this year's spring game, even if just to get a glimpse of what the post-Denard offense will look like, at least in my case. Granted, it might not be the most informative event in this regard, but hopefully we see enough to get an idea what some of the depth chart battles will be. I am curious as usual, and I will definitely mark down the date. 

Thanks  for the information, incidentally - it's still amusing that no announcement yet exists on the official website and this news broke elsewhere. 

What's Borges gonna do on 3rd and short without Vincent smith?????

:)

to have the game on my b-day. I'll bet they will make sure that Michigan wins too.

Last year, besides the horrible weather that I can't blame on Brandon or anyone that has to do with UM athletics, Denard ran one series and then sat the rest of the 1 hr scrimmage. We got to sit in horrible weather and watch Devin and Bellomy miss 5 yard passes over and over for exactly 1 hr and then were told to go home or to the lacrosse game...

and I got a ticket for parking...even though there was no sign where I parked prohibiting parking...

Oh yeah and the items that you received for donations to Mott were pretty lame unless you donated $500

Like was said, It would be nice if someone actually made an effort to make it fun

That being said, I and my group of friends will probably still go, get there at 7am, tailgate in sleet/snow/rain and 30 degrees with 50 mph winds and then head into the stadium and be irritated at the level of actual football that we get to see.
