Let's get back to some Wolverine classic games. Here's one where #19 comes out on top...
As always, thanks WH and enjoy.

Play for the love of the game, watch to support our team.
A win's also nice.

We need to keep the jug - the original college football trophy! We don't play Minnesota again until 2023. Let's keep it warm and safe in Schembechler Hall for another 3 years. Paul gets thirsty, and he likes to have his favorite water jug available at all times.

Definitely one of the elite kickers Michigan has ever had

His son used to be on our team... until he transferred to a new school... which is our rival school... we had a head coaching change.

Knowing that Mike Gillette played for the St.Joe Bears, is that where his son started out?
I met Gillette once several years after his football career was over, he was a new car salesman at the time at a SJ/BH area car dealership. And his brother Kevin was involved in local politics in that area, I believe as a county commissioner.

He was up until his junior year. He transferred to the red school down the road.
We had a new head coach come in, and his son is on the team as the qb.

Ahh, ok. He transferred to the Lakeshore Lancers.
And now I know who you coach for. I have a granddaughter at Upton, so maybe I'll get to Dickinson Stadium for a game sometime. I took her to an early-season game there last fall.

The 19th century was crucial, when —
• "democracy" flipped from a radical idea to normal (and our current arguments started about what it means),
• regular entertainment for everyone emerged, and
• organized sports began to get organized.

October...... its all about the jug....jugs....
GO BLUE

I know it's not Michigan football related but I will always associate #19 with Steve Yzerman. Pro sports in Detroit is a wasteland these days but those 90s Red Wings teams were great times.

Agreed.
hope he makes the right moves as GM and brings this old friend back to the 313.
