Team 133 Seniors Cali Youth Camp

I was in Pasedena the other day but had no idea that this was happenin.  Great idea to spread the message of Michigan football to the West Coast and do something great for kids.

Everything's roses at Michigan camp

University's football team hosts around 80 youths at skills clinic Thursday afternoon at Jackie Robinson Field.

PASADENA — When asked if he would be able to place his finger on a map and identify the state of Michigan, 11-year-old Pasadena native Rolandiss Whitener Jr. said he didn’t think so.

Yet, when asked who he thought was the odds on favorite to win the 2012 Heisman Trophy, Whitener Jr. knew exactly where to point — right at University of Michigan senior quarterback Denard Robinson.......

Brady Hoke: Bringing awesomeness to a whole new level.  Does any one else think Coach Wellman would be "Tremendous" on the Biggest Loser?

The article said Mike Vollmar is the AD at Michigan and at first I was like whaaa? because I've never even heard of him, but then I used the google machine and lo and behold he is the Associate AD.  His MGoBlue bio also informs me that he went to the same HS as Lloyd, and has a habit of being associated with winners.  Bo in the 80s, Syracuse when McNabb was there, Bama for Saban's first NC... Also some time at State that was not as successful but they were playing against us soo... Anyway why do we not hear from him more?

"Michigan Defense" is dominating everything, in every aspect of life. That's a rough definition.

he gets IT. Yes he is paid a large salary to win football games. Yet he understands this is a very small part of what is important in life. Unfortunately not every person affiliated with sports gets it. He is showing us he is a great coach, but he is an even greater person.

Michigan fans are not made. They are born!

Seems like a great way to keep the west coast recruiting pipeline open as well

Agreed on the pipeline, if this becomes an annual occurrence alot of the kids who attend these clinics may see UM in a whole new light when they get older.

It doesn't hurt that Ross is opening a satellite campus in SoCal for their Executive MBA program. There are going to be TV, Billboard and Radio ads highlighting Michigan everywhere. Going out to Michigan to play may not seem so far away.
