James Hilton would be an interesting choice. He hails from Texas, received his PhD from Princeton, was a tenured professor of psych at Michigan for years (his area of specializaition is the psychology of suspicion, hmm), became interested in digital rights, was appointed associate vice provost of all things information, then left for UVA with Sullivan (and when one of his kids matriculated there), and is now back in Ann Arbor as Dean of the Libraries and several other administrative posts. He is solid gold.
Somebody doesn't remember the 1979 Gator Bowl, when LT practically ripped Wangler's leg off at the end of a play, severely injuring him and ending his day. That was the dirtiest, foulest, most loathsome thing I have ever seen in a Michigan game. Yes, dirtier than Gholston.
My daughter — the one shown in my photograph — was heavily recruited by State, and agreed to apply as a personal favor to one of the MSU faculty. We drove up from Ann Arbor and parked. A few minutes into our walk to the department office, she turned to me and announced in utter seriousness, "I can't go here, Dad".
"Why, honey?", I asked.
"Its all that green and white, all those S-es, the statues ... No, Dad, I can't."
That was such a "raised her right" moment for me.
Anyway, this is just to say that some would disagree with you about just how nice the MSU campus is.
P.S.: And then she broke my heart — and my wallet — by turning down a full tuition scholarship from Michigan and accepted a partial scholarship from Indiana. Kids today, sigh.
Honestly, watching an illegal stream, listening to the (legal!) WCBN streaming play-by-play, and keeping up on the live blog has become, for me, the ideal way to follow the game each week.
I have an old picture from when I was maybe three years old, wearing a Michigan cardigan sweater. Along the bottom of this photo my Mom wrote GO BIG M. I have always known I was a Michigan fan.
I probably have a couple things jumbled up in my mind ... Wangler to Carter as time runs out ... Ufer HONK HONK HONK the replay they play all the time on the radio ... This was Indiana, away, right? 19 ... 89?
Anyway, just before that awesome pass, I-really-forget-who (dammit) intentionally fumbled the ball out of bounds to stop the clock. That was ... ugly.
That was ten minutes well spent. Henne to Manningham with one second left, remember that?!? I plotzed. And the players up on the student section wall afterwards ... awesome. (No Lloyd Brady sighting.)
Just raising her right is all you're doing. And she will repay you by terrorizing your grandchildren someday. The circle of life. It's a beautiful thing, man, it's a beautiful thing.
Not to put too fine a point on it, but I raised no wimpy kids, and you can find my spawn in major cities around the world screaming fits (with that 12-letter four-letter word in heavy rotation) at a nearby screen (which might be a streaming laptop) on any given game day.
if harbaugh were to come back for the '85 celebration and show even the slightest contrition, i might back off on the hatred, but it looks like that's not going to happen.
at this point, rodriguez is more of a Michigan Man than harbaugh, in my book.
i looked at the game clock (14:46), got out a calculator and figured out that at that torrid scoring pace, michigan was on pace for an 1,800 point game!

I do want to protest too much! My UM BGS got me a free ride (tuition + stipend) for an Ivy-league PhD followed by a tenure-track gig at Princeton!
...
i agree with you ...
... and to prove it, i stand arm-in-arm with you as you get moderated down to -∞.
little brother understands that even with a win head-to-head, he will never measure up against michigan.
temper tantrum follows.
best moment is the offscreen suggestion "let's decorate him!"
oops
that guy would have put cal tech on the map ... if the beavers had a football team.
those guys are all "that was so cool" and then they start talking about smoking weed or something, ha ha, the big house is awesome!
Y U H8N ON M?
dude. a lot of us do, every day.
I say "yes" and if your scenario plays out, I'll eat my hat. It's all about the conference, for me.

1969 was significant.
I watched the UM-MSU game (shudder). We got beat by a better team. Just sayin'.
Moreover, Dantonio will personally escort him from the hoosegow to the team bus.

Dirtier than Lawrence Taylor? I respectfully disagree.

It stands to reason that Lewan shared his opinion of Gholson's character with him as he helped him up.

I figure it's the moral equivalent of "that team up north."

Tell it, brah: this shit is live.

Dude, I hear ya, but please, in the future? Burn the barcas, but DON'T BURN THE FLAG.
Don't anyone tell him the TV lag compared to radio.
The slime from the east? Obscure much?
When you said OSU "acted shiftly" you pretty much nailed it.
What's that you say? OSU "acted shiftly"? Yes, indeed, you nailed it!
i like the part where he chants about poops in the bathroom
but the funkycaps maybe misplaced it but game over?
I'll buy that. Thanks.
on the final kickoff.
mo d!
face palm
u rite
mallory was kind of a "blue collar" player that performed way beyond what was predicted of him, and left here as something of a superstar.
just stop. Godwin's Law.
i feel the same way.

EDIT: typo
pictures, or it didn't happen
RR is saying Lewan suffered a concussion some time in the first half, which might explain the fall-off in his performance.
i meant floyd, not kovacs.
this has been bugging me since the moment i posted it, but i only now figured out why.
every team needs a refrigerator in the playbook
my favorite moment was right after the first TD.
i looked at the game clock (14:46), got out a calculator and figured out that at that torrid scoring pace, michigan was on pace for an 1,800 point game!
the nice thing about avery's play yesterday is that there were nice things to say about avery's play yesterday.
last year, kovacs was in the same place, with lots of room for improvement, and that is working out.
