Straight from the old coaching staff!!!
Let me first tell you, my brother in-law Allen is the son of a very important man at U of M. He has been close to all the coaches at Michigan since he was young (Bo,Gary,Lloyd,RR).
Well yesterday we had the family over and Allen walked through the door with ten bags of Michigan gear he got from some of the coaches. He told me he took what he wanted and I could have the rest, so like a kid at christmas I began going through all the bags and found almost all of the stuff is new. There is also alot of kids suff.
I also tried to find out what Allens dad knows, and how the coaching search was going, but he won't say a thing.

Even in "All The President's Men", Allen met Woodward and Bernstein in a parking garage and gave them information. I imagine the reluctance means that Allen has already heard the line, "Your lives are in danger..."

Send some of that stuff this way. Not the tightly whities though.

Will someone please go wake Bo up from his Lucid dream, where Michigan is winning consecutive Big ten titles and Rosebowl games, and tell him we need him to get us out of this nightmare!

If you decide to unload any of it, it would be appreciated if you posted deals here prior to going to craigslist..
Any old jerseys, etc? In particular linemen's numbers?

Great post - "my friend Allen's dad is a VIP and Allen brought me a bunch of leftover UM stuff."
Certainly worth bringing to our attention

I've got an image of an old Coke commercial in my head ... but with Joe Green tossing 10 bags of clothing at the kid instead of just a jersey.

Well actually it's my step sister in law. Her boys are a few years older than mine so we get a lot of cool hand me downs for our kids. We live in the interior of the NE and she's on the East Coast. There's a good chance she doesn't even know where Michigan is so, not wanting to waste your time, I did not ask about her prognosis on the Michigan coaching change.
You all don't have to thank me at once.
