DT Henry Poggi Interview (2013 commit)
I'm not sure if there are any rules about posting links to other blogs, but I thought this interview with 2013 DT commit Henry Poggi was well worth the read. It provides some interesting insights into his relatively quiet recruiting process, why he chose Michigan over Alabama (and everyone else), his unusual pregame ritual, and his rocky relationship with Kate Upton.
Please also note his proper use of the phrase "could not care less."
Conclusion: Another definite Michigan Man.

I changed the title around... today is not the day to have a heart attack, what with it being a holiday, and July... all those new interns running around who don't know what they're doing yet.
Oh she's with Shane? I guess the QB gets the girls. This makes sense. Good for him.
"Henry: I don't really get too nervous before games, but if I don't go to the bathroom before a game, I do get nervous. It's important to note that as long as I had a good bathroom stop, we would win. We don't have state championships for private schools in Maryland; we fight for the conference championship. We were able to win it this year and I have to say that my pre-game bathroom trip was especially epic before that one."
I can already imagine the TV sideline reporter being asked before every game, "On a scale of 1 to 10, how would you rate Poggi's pre-game piss performance?"
I can see it now: “What is the 3P index today, Henry? /s

Student section will have a blast with that! /s
I don't think he's talking about taking a piss.
Henri's burnin' a mule before every game.
" I don't know. I don't really care either, whatever gets me on the field first and gives me an opportunity to help my team."- Poggi, in response to a question about where he feels he fits in position-wise
To me, statements like this show that Michigan really did make a great impression on him. No preconceptions, but he wants to be part of this school and this team and go from there and play where he fits best on the team. He also said that he liked that the 2013 commits were very close to one another, and I think that it is great that they are forming these bonds now, because it will definitely serve them well when they officially are in Ann Arbor.
to Michigan! We will be cheering for you.
