Vincent Smith doing an AMA on reddit
Yeah, he already did one a few months back, but it's always good to get the word out about the great work he and other Wolverines have been doing.
(I realize there's a topic about the Yahoo article but I wanted to highlight the Reddit AMA that's hopefully still going on - mods, apologies in advance if I'm piggybacking with an uncessary separate forum topic)

The previous repost was for the article itself, but someone did mention the AMA within the comments. A thread about the AMA specifically should be fine. No worries.

Also, if he's reading this, Vincent Smith - when I went to Michigan much longer ago then I care to mention I used to think all the football players were dumb meatheads.
I was incredibly wrong about that stereotype thanks to electronic media giving us a closer look at the guys who we root for on Sundays - but no one person has done as much to disabuse me of my previous notion than you have. I'm incredibly proud to say that I attended the same university as you.

Also of note, he mentions this blog on there
Q: ... what do you think Michigan's biggest problem is right now and how can they fix it?
A: "I have seen a lot of people arguing on mgoblog over Michigan Football. I think there are always many factors in to all decisions a team makes. I think the biggest problem right now would be our offensive line is young and inexperienced and I think with time and if they work together they can fix that. Over time the team will come together and gel.
A lot of people point fingers at players and sometimes it takes time to learn a new role when stepping into someone else shoes.
There have been a lot of controversial plays and I don't feel comfortable really commenting on specifics because I don't want my words taken out of context."

Another good reminder to be mindful of what we write in here. A lot of different people might be reading on here like current & former players and recruits too

I've never visited that site and I'm used to AMA as American Medical Association, so this headline was strange to me.
You may want to spell it out for some of us who aren't into all those newfangled, hipster websites.

Pretty cool what a great ambassador #2 is for the university; not only the deeds that are done in Pahokee, but his entire demeanor and professionalism (and also proper grammar and spelling) in these public interactions.

He is a pretty cool dude.
