17 weeks 2 days ago	Bentley Image Bank	The Bentley rocks for things like this. Have you checked out their image bank? It's open to the public. Just search for "Ann Arbor Main Street" or whatever and all kinds of interesting pictures come up.   http://quod.lib.umich.edu/cgi/i/image/image-idx?c=bhl
20 weeks 2 days ago	Heidelberg	The girlfriend and I went out with some friends last year at Heidelberg. That was actually pretty fun. If you get there between 8-9 you can definitely grab a table (we had a group of about 10).  They passed out hats, kazoo type things, champagne I think, etc.
28 weeks 3 days ago	I know you are being	I know you are being sarcastic, but it really wouldn't surprise me too much if he actually was on MGo, though likely in a "lurker" sense. From his time at Dominoes I am sure Mr Brandon is familiar with the Six Sigma (6S) methodology. One of the main principles of 6S is understanding the "voice of the customer" to ensure product/project quality. MGoBlog provides a unique live look into the fan base that would be difficult to pass up as the de facto CEO of Michigan athletics.

31 weeks 5 days ago	Co-op	I think what people also miss is that the Co-op program is very popular at Purdue. Similar to a University of Cincinnati or a Kettering University, the engineering students alternate work and class rotations. So a not insignificant portion of the student body isn't in town at any given time.

39 weeks 6 days ago	r/CFB	This was discussed on Reddit also. User "Spicy_TWatkins" provides some interesting insight:     40 yard times are measured off of the runners start not the runner reacting to a gun. Bolt had a reaction time in that race of 0.146s, so subtracting that off you get to a 40 yard dash time of about 4.05s.   ...   Just looked at Denard's profile on Michigan's track team's website and his 60m PB is 6.81s, Bolt ran the first 60m in Bejing and Berlin in 6.155 and 6.161, respectively. In less then 24m Bolt wouldn't be able to make up 0.6s on Denard, he would have to already be well ahead at 36.576m (40yds).
1 year 8 weeks ago	Is it just me or does Denard	Is it just me or does Denard sound a lot better in his interviews? I wonder if it's something that he's been working on. The past few seasons, while his smile was infectious, he sounded shaky at times and not quite sure what to say next.  His increasing mastery of coachspeak will do him well in next years draft interviews.

1 year 24 weeks ago	Colin: Health issues? That's	Colin: Health issues? That's a ton of hours. Hoke: I'm very fortunate. My wife helps, she's a blessing. You've got to keep it in perspective and help the kids grow, but you have to make sure the coaches keep getting time with their families. Colin: Do you look at OSU differently with Urban instead of Tressel? Hoke: We'll always have great respect for OHIO. Colin: Rematch LSU v Bama? What do you think about rematches? Hoke: You'll see it here in the B1G with Ohio and us on opposite divisions. It's exciting and the landscape continues to change. Everyone has so much passion. Colin: Night gamez. Moar plz. Hoke: Generic coachspeak.

1 year 31 weeks ago	Kindle?	Question for Brian, John, or someone else who has seen the book - are there extensive graphs/charts/a need for an actual physical copy? I'd prefer to buy the Kindle version, but I've found e-books aren't great when you need to flip back and forth between charts and text.  I see that John did say he cut out all photographs, so that's why I'm wondering. Can't wait to read it!
