Tripp Welborne

On 9/27/10:

 

I wrote:

"Anyone but Gerg.  I'm certainly not in his camp.  You guys can make all the excuses you want about having young players, only two years in the system, etc, but he's not a good DC.  Heck, learning a new defense is not that difficult.  Offense is always more complicated.  Not to mention what track record does he bring?  He only had success at the Broncos.  Even then, we all know the arguements regarding successful NFL coaches having success in college.  Our defense has regressed significantly since Shafer...  I'm willing to bet quite a large amount he'll be gone by the start of next season. "

 

You, TrippWelborne replied:

 

"i will take that bet.  i am not going to rationalize the bgsu game or umass game, but from everything i have read from the players they support GERG.  i think these guys are going to get better and better as the season goes on, if they keep healthy."

 

When are you going to pay me?

 

Yes, I realize this takes up space and wastes everyones time.  Neg away.  I just want to get paid. Isn't that what America's all about?

Technically Gremlin, Tripp doesnt owe you anything yet. And this kind of proclamation could anger the gambling gods against you.

A guy by the name of Kenny Rogers is in the college football news today, so I'll quote his namesake: never count your money when you're sittin' at the table.

Quoted from experience, btw. More than I want to admit.

Tripp was there for what I consider to be the golden age of Michigan Football. One of the greatest players we've ever had in the secondary. I just remember him driving around campus in a sweet ass corvette with a license plate that read: UR TRPN

Does it bother anyone else that Tripp Welborne's name is being used in what some people might think of as a pejorative way here? He was, to me, one of the most revered Michigan safeties ever, and were it not for a horrible acl tear at the very end of the season, might have had an excellent pro career as well.

 

I propose that we not use the names of former players, especially great ones, unless we really are those players.

Tripp was a star player when I first starting really loving Michigan football as a kid.  I would say that he and Tony Boles were two of my biggest childhood heroes.  Its ironic that both of their careers were derailed by the turf at Minnesota.  Reading about Boles as an adult (and rumeal robonson as well) was an extremely depressing thing for me.
