You have $15 to create your Michigan Football leaders

Thought this was kind of a fun exercise, even if it is the Freep. Don't worry, no clickthroughs. 

 

 

My 5: Brady, Wheatley, Carter, Woodson, Crisler.

Who are your 5? Anybody you'd add or change?

I say f** the Free Press and I'm choosing Elvis Grbac, Rob Lytle, Amani Toomer, and as head Coach, Gary Moeller.  All i need on defense is Alan Branch,

who can, one-by-one, kill off the opposing offense. 

I then pocket the entire $15 and get the satisfaction of a small measure of revenge on that pathetic rag.

So Henne makes the list but no Robinson or Grbac? And A-Train but no Rob Lytle?

Sorry shitty list.

And the price values dont make much sense either.

It's not supposed to be a ranked or comprehensive list by position, its supposed to have QBs of varying ability, some great, and some just ok, so the point values make sense.  

If anything, they already added too many good players which messed up the point values.

Several better options then the only QB in our life times to win a NC at Michigan??  You need to learn some respect....Many put up better numbers and were more athletic i'll agree. BG was as cool as the other side of the pillow as the Field General and won the big one...He had the mental side of thing which is more important....I mean look at Ryan Leaf...

And yet somehow NFL coaches let him start 83 games as an NFL QB. We have been fortunate at Michigan to have some great QBS but your comment to me smacks of saying Brian wasn't one of them though he won the biggest prize at Michigan and then turned in a vary successful pro career that not many saw coming.

Yes, he put up some big numbers relative to other UM QBs.  When you start 37 games in three years and are essentially the team's entire offense, that will happen.   But against decent defenses, he was frequently cringeworthy.  24 INTs and a 54% completion percentage as an upperclassmen is not good.

Harbaugh at $1 for a coach is an absolute bargain. Arguably the best coach on that list. But my list:

Harbaugh - Coach
Woodson
Brady
Howard
Thomas

Would've liked to get a guy like Hart, sure, but can't pass up two game changers in Woodson and Howard. Brady was the definition of clutch for Michigan and the game was never over with him, and again, Harbaugh may very well be the best coach on that list.

Exactly. Harbaugh is one of the top coaches in the game today. But let's not forget how blessed Michigan has been with some of the best coaches of All-Time. Different eras, sure. But look at the records and the titles of the others on that list. I'm gonna wait for Harbaugh to actually do something before I start putting him above the coaches on that list.
