I don't know I feel like this is more of a PR move than anything else. It's not like he completely ignored it, he gave Rice a fine, suspension, and asked him to go to anger management classes. He at least gave Rice a chance. This guy was a good AD for Rutgers, moving them into the Big Ten and really developing a new culture around athletics there. He won't be out of a job for long though, he's been successful everywhere he's been.
Chris Paul's jersey was recently hung up this year... and correct me if I'm wrong but I am pretty sure he left after his sophmore year also. I see no reason why a Big Ten player of the year, consensus First Team All American, and a potential Wooden and Naismath winner would not be hung up in Crisler. I don't think we realize how special a player Burke really is and how much he means to Michigan.
If I'm not mistaken lacrosse is the fastest growing sport in the United States, so lacrosse in general is on the rise. It is very established on the east and as we're seeing with Michigan more and more Midwest/west teams are starting to make lacrosse a d-1 sport. I think the addition will be huge for the establishment of the Big ten lacrosse conference. Maryland is on an elite level in lacrosse and the talent and exposure they are going bring to the big ten will be huge for Michigan and the sport.

Its hard to do anything if you can't win faceoffs. Possesion is so huge in lacrosse, hard to really complain when Michigan isnt on offense.
I hope not
Sounds expensive.
Did Denard break the rushing record?
Why can't we just be noraml.
It baffles me how Lee wasn't invited to New York this year, kids insane, I think he has a pretty good chance to win it next year.
Trey is a very good point guard, but not elite. How about Jameer Nelson?
No way Te'o wins it, he is just there because ND is undefeated.
Klein blew his shot when he lost to Baylor.
Which means Manziel wins it, he's been unbelievable this year and he beat Bama, I think he deserves it.
This is stupid.
Seems like Hoke feels a lot of our problems were on the O-line this year, hopefully he gets Lewan to stay.
We haven't struck out at WR/RB yet. There is still a couple months until signing day and Treadwell and Green are still on the board, I'm not worried.
A USC win will definitely aid my healing process
