Zak Zinter was walking around today without a cast or boot. Walking in shoes. The Ohio State game wasn’t that long ago. Pretty wild recovery.

Jimuary.

Comes once a year, every year . Glad this year Jimuary doesn't start until the 10th. That's nice - because Jimuary sucks.

Jeez how many times do you want to lose to Michigan 😂

I have 2 tix on 30 yd line (633, row M) that I no longer need and am looking to sell direct at big discount in order to avoid fees. Current price on stub hub (incl fees) is $1500. Please make offer if interested.
Thanks,
Dave

Jesse Minter confirms that Rayshaun Benny will miss some time, confirming what we had heard earlier in the week.

Something he will bounce back from but will have to miss weeks.

As debates rage on about stats, Michigan quarterback J.J. McCarthy remains focused on one thing.
"I could care less what the media says about me or the light they put me in. All I really care about is winning football games."

This weekend for a Bocce tournament. Final round is Sunday. I plan on staying Monday for the game. I wanna witness first hand the agony and complete mental breakdowns they will display when we win the F'n National Championship!

Will be pumping out content later on today from Michigan’s media day, which will take place in an hour.

Wanted to keep you all updated if we are quiet this morning.

.....NIL.....Champions Circle is up to $250 basically in 24 hours with only 1300 donors. That's about $190 a person.

We as a fan base need to get serious and proactive about NIL. We need to share this with family and friends on social media and via text to all Michigan fans!

It's a start but we as a fan base can do a lot more than we are doing! If people can afford this site they can afford $10 a month or even $10 a year.

With him announcing tomorrow do we have any word on this?
Thanks

I have a feeling all of us will remember where we were on Monday January 1st 2024 - even if we win the whole thing.

I was in a great place, despite being out of town the week prior and going out New Year's Eve we accepted an invite to hang out with our old tailgate friends. Friends who, 20-25 years ago we'd spend much of football season with. Definitely tailgate days. And then other social occasions throughout the year, but the football season was the best. Multiple members of our wedding party were in the room.

Now we all see each other in spurts. Never the entire family, one dad showing up at the tailgate for a few hours before going to a soccer game, one spouse having a rare week where they can join the other and see their old friends, etc. Some we don't see for years.

But Monday a ton of us were together, like those great times and the celebration was unforgettable. We sang the victors and I facetimed my freshman wolverine so she could join us. 16 years ago a friend asked if he was doing something wrong as a dad as the same daughter sang the victors at a year and a half. He was with me in the room.

Our team, led by my first sports hero had won the Rose Bowl by dethroning the current kings of the sport, in dramatic fashion.

Since then everything has been better, the coffee has been better, conversations with the kids and wife carry more smiles and laughs and work, while perhaps a bit less productive has been more enjoyable.

What happened Monday impacted my life in a profoundly positive way. That says whatever it says about me. But its undeniable.

I found this forum around 2002 - on my work laptop at my girlfriend (now wife's) condo and was quickly hooked. I text daily with lifelong friends made that year. Again a real impact on my life.

And now this week I'm planning a trip to Houston, checking in with dad who introduced me to this school and team and urging my freshman daughter to get back to campus early for what might be party she'll talk about for the rest of her life.

As a younger man I gave more thought to what should make me happy. Approaching 50, I'm more content to take and savor the smiles as they come, from whereever they come.

This Michigan football climb and everything that surrounds it this week has brought me pure joy and I'm thankful for that and for all that can identify to any level with what I'm saying.

A virtual fist bump to all. A thank you to Jim and his boys. A thank you to Josh for keeping the doors open and the service top notch at my favorite sports bar and a Go Blue to the world!!!

Who does he contact in the AD to donate this too?

He claims they turned him down before.

Michigan hosted two known transfer portal visitors this week in Wake Forest wide receiver Jahmal Banks and Northwestern DB Rod Heard and, as to be expected, the Wolverines did very well with both.

I posted yesterday that I felt comfortable saying right now that the Wolverines are the team to beat for Heard and, after talking to those in Detroit circle, they too feel as if the Wolverines are in a really good spot coming out of the visit. One such person I spoke with said the Wolverines were a 'lock' for Heard but, with the way these things go sometimes, I'm not ready to go that far yet. He shouldn't be too far away from making a decision and the staff feel good with what they were able to do during the visit.

As for Banks, he had a strong visit himself. Where the Wolverines stand currently is a bit of an unknown to me as I am still waiting on getting some key messages back regarding that but what I can say is that he thoroughly enjoyed his visit and spent some quality time with the team. What resonated the most with him is the Wolverines' commitment to winning. Still trying to figure out what his timeline looks like moving forward but I expect the Wolverines to be a contender.

More when I have it.

I mean we knew he was their pr guy, but at least pretend to hide it.

The best guy was a guy benched for a younger guy. At kansas state.
