Ask Jim Brandstatter
Hey guys. I am interviewing Jim Brandstatter tomorrow afternoon and figured there's a ton that I could ask him. I thought I'd enlist your help to get me the best question set possible. I'll pick the best ones besides the ones I've already set aside. Thanks for the help!

Here's mine.....Have you ever met Lloyd Brady?
January 19th, 2012 at 12:27 PM ^
It'd be great to hear stories about players and practice. Denard, Brady, Henne, Long, Woodley, Howard, Carter, Woodson, Terrell, Manningham, Wangler, Griese, Henson, etc.
Somehow I don't think he'd say anything, but I'd like more on Carr, and also Miles.
I'd like his take on Tressel and Dantonio.

and for his best Larry Grandy story.
January 19th, 2012 at 12:39 PM ^
Bonus points if you find a way to drop a "No question, Jim," in response to anything he might say.
January 19th, 2012 at 1:09 PM ^
Rest assured that this will be done, lol.
January 19th, 2012 at 2:13 PM ^
Make that "No question about it, Jim"
January 19th, 2012 at 12:44 PM ^
Why do you always ask "Did you see that" or state "Look how..." while broadcasting on the radio? Is Beckman not paying attention?
January 19th, 2012 at 12:56 PM ^
Were either of these guys ever seriously considered had they had interest in the job? How much has Harbaugh alienated the Michigan administration with his "academics" comments? Does he think Tom Brady will ever come back and embrace the school in Desmond Howard UTL fashion?
January 19th, 2012 at 1:06 PM ^
you're Brady Hoke. How else could you conveniently interview every recruit we're after AND talk with Jim Brandstatter?
January 19th, 2012 at 1:17 PM ^
When Hoke says "Well" or Tremendous".
January 19th, 2012 at 1:19 PM ^

if you had to choose between being the top broadcaster in your field, or getting mad cow disease, which one would it be?
January 19th, 2012 at 1:42 PM ^
An open eded question, and see how far he will take it than to try and get very interrogatory.
Jim, how do you view the 3 years of RR in retrospect now that we are 1 year beyond his tenure here?
January 19th, 2012 at 1:47 PM ^
"You're an idiot" or "WTF did you just say ?" (when Beckman screws up a call .... hey it happens to everyone!)
Go Blue!

Please ask Jim, if he is writing a new volume of "Tales from Michigan Stadium". He has 2 out. I would love to see more stories from the 90's and 2000 teams. There are so many great players he can talk to.
Does he miss the old Michigan Replay, or does he like the new show he does with Hoke?
I worked as a intern on michigan replay in 1995 (Lloyd's first year) It was a tough year but great to work with Jim and Lloyd. Lloyd and his wife were so great and very nice at every taping even if Michigan lost..
January 19th, 2012 at 1:56 PM ^
Who has the better cheerleaders? UM or the Lions?
And no, I'm not asking who is better at double back flips.
January 19th, 2012 at 7:55 PM ^
If you would like a comparison as to my level of seriousness, refer to your avatar.
January 19th, 2012 at 3:00 PM ^
Dont have cheerleaders.
January 19th, 2012 at 2:11 PM ^
You or Brady? 3-point stance Jim! Let's go! Coach Hoke, your on deck!
January 19th, 2012 at 2:14 PM ^
If would really like to hear him let loose about how he feels about Dantonio....come on--let it fly.
January 19th, 2012 at 3:04 PM ^
BCS or playoffs?
January 19th, 2012 at 3:53 PM ^
What do you know about the whole RR LC thing?
January 19th, 2012 at 4:02 PM ^
Jim, waht do you think about opening up versus Alabama this year?
January 19th, 2012 at 5:04 PM ^
1. Does he think that the MSU program is a legitimate B1G contender or have they just been feasting on a weak UM and B1G the past few years?
2. Now that UM is back, will MSU stay at their current level or will they fade?
3. Will we see Denard at any position other than QB this year?
4. Who or what positions would he like to see filled with our final few 2012 openings?
5. What commit or freshman is he most excited about?
January 19th, 2012 at 5:03 PM ^
double post.
January 19th, 2012 at 6:05 PM ^
You ever been in a cockpit before?
You ever seen a grown man naked?
Jimmy, have you ever been in a... in a Turkish prison?
