There are...
...days until Chalmers "Bump" Elliott witnesses a Michigan victory. I did not know he is still alive until reading his Wikipedia page. Few people make it to 90+ years - good for him.

Shoutout to Jermaine Gonzales

I definitely thought about Jermaine.

caught a TD pass in the Spartan Bob game. That is honestly the only play I remember from his career.

Pretty sure I used him last year for eighteen.
EDIT: I did.

...we are that close to kickoff!
August 15th, 2017 at 9:55 AM ^
Here is another, with a little pro football flair

almost down to single digit days remaining....

One of the Mad Magicians, a middling coach (his 9-1 1964 record helps the cosmetics a lot, but he really wasn't very good as Michigan's HC overall), and a great AD at Iowa. Plus, by all reports, a gentleman, gracious on the way out, and an all-around good guy.
He had some great hires at Iowa - Hayden Fry, Dan Gable and Lute Olsen. His athletic and professional careers were, overall, stellar. And despite his relative lack of success as Michigan's HC, he never embarrassed the program or the school.
Good call, OP.

HAHA yep. I'm sure that's exactly what they're thinking now. They had some fun when we had bad coaching and teams. Those days are gone. Now every mid-October, MSU fans will go back to asking, "Is it basketball season yet?"

Late to throw in a good ribbing over MTSU.

Is "tunamelt" a usual joke replacement for tournament, or was that just an amazing autocorrect?
August 15th, 2017 at 12:41 PM ^
August 15th, 2017 at 9:16 AM ^
Was he misused.

was creative with his use of Bass if you consider highly-telegraphed sweeps and direct snaps without any particular rhyme or reason to be "creative." Mostly I remember them as being a waste of a down.

days until Brandon Peters plays the second half of a blowout victory in Dallas.
August 15th, 2017 at 9:00 AM ^
Before he is done at M, we will win the National Championship. Go Blue.
August 15th, 2017 at 9:33 AM ^
can you direct us to a link where there is a decent quality image? it would look great next to the b&w harmon pic in my office.
August 15th, 2017 at 12:24 PM ^
Not to be a dick, but Google is a great starting point.

Reverse image search comes up with nothing, so I'm not sure higher quality exists online. I did find this other pic though, not much higher quality but larger at least https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/c/c6/Bump_Elliott_runs_f…;
