Let me put it this way: Last week while in Ann Arbor I visited with a few people who work in the athletic department. There are a number of people there who "shun" him and think some or a lot of the information he relays in "Endzone" is less than accurate, especially some of the quotes in the book. Interesting comparison of Beilein with RichRod also. Both came from West Virginia, but Beilein adapted to the Michigan culture and recruited "Michigan" type athletes. RR didn't and recruited "West Virginia" type athletes, many who could not hack it academically. "Rural" Florida was a particular attraction for RR.
