Zoltan Returns to Judge Mock Rock (and Dhani Jones Will Host)
Mock Rock should be quite the event this year as several notables are on tap to participate.
The host of Mock Rock 2011 will be Dhani Jones, a former U-M football player (1996-99) who plays for the Cincinnati Bengals and tours the globe with a show on the Travel Channel.
Notable Michigan leaders and alumni judge the performances every year. This year's celebrity judges are:
- Brady Hoke, new Michigan football head coach
- Jan Brandon, wife of athletics director Dave Brandon
- Zoltan Mesko, former Michigan football player and current New England Patriots punter
- Adam Schefter, Michigan alum and ESPN analyst
- Elise Ray, former Michigan gymnast and Olympic bronze medalist
- Dan Sygar, president of Letterwinners M Club
Tickets are now on sale for Mock Rock, the variety show presented by current University of Michigan student-athletes. General tickets are $10 and premium tickets are $15 for the event, scheduled for 7:30 p.m. on Wednesday, Feb. 16, at Hill Auditorium.

Schefter is an M grad? News to me...I guess I should lighten up on him. .
Sounds like quite the panel of judges. $5 Dhani wears a bowtie...

Next time you see him on ESPN (must be in HD, SD isn't wide enough), check his bookcase behind him, he has a Michigan helmet sitting on the shelf.

Whenever Adam Schefter does his "Insider Reports" on the NFL, they show his office, and there's almost always a Michigan helmet over his shoulder if they show enough of his office
Damn.. beaten to it. Props, good sir

Solid crew of judges there. I hope men's soccer comes up big again this year

I kinda had a feeling it would be Dhani this year. Adam Schefter and Zoltan are pleasant surprises as judges. Zoltan's ratings should count as 100000x as everybody else's since he is the space emperor of space.

Sounds awesome.
In other news, Zoltan is f*cking awesome. Had an opportunity to talk with him because my friend dragged (at the time I didn't want to go) me to some Cru event and it happened to be with the fellowship of Christian athletes and he was there.
Fun stuff, promises to be entertaining.

Kind of ironic that you use the F word while describing a Christian event.
February 3rd, 2011 at 1:18 PM ^
To witness obscenity at a Christian event.

But at least he was nice enough to put that asterix in there so nobody could tell what he was trying to say.

Don't forget the adorable kid judge they always have from Mott

Ew, it wont happen. I don't think Coner is gonna show up; plus, he doesn't need auto-tune.
February 3rd, 2011 at 4:00 PM ^
wow, that is really awful.
February 3rd, 2011 at 1:03 PM ^
Hopefully someone records it and we can get some highlights online.
February 3rd, 2011 at 4:41 PM ^
