News and Notes: Wednesday Edition



  • Let's be clear, Brian from mgoblog.com broke the Lloyd Carr retirement story. It was the opening story on SportsCenter last night at 6:00. Brian had it 24 hours before anyone. I am also proud to say bighouseblog.com had it Monday night as well.

  • A nervous AD at LSU responds to questions on whether Les wants to go to Michigan. Les was on ESPN radio yesterday and couldn't hide his love for the Michigan program. LSU better back up the Brinks truck to Les right now if they want him to stay.

  • ESPN makes a good point about a coaching change and recruiting. There is a two week dead period in December. What a great time to make a change and keep the top recruits that have verbally committed.

  • Update: 2 new names that I didn't mention who could replace LC are: 1) Kirk Ferentz - IOWA HC. I wouldn't support this hire. This guy is a solid head coach and has turned down the NFL, but what has he really done at Iowa? I know he is very well respected at U of M. 2) Michael Trgovac - Who? You ask? Mike is the current defensive coordinator for the Carolina Panthers. Born near Youngstown, Ohio, Trgovac was an All-American noseman at the University of Michigan before starting his NFL coaching career. It seems OSU has had success with a coach from Youngstown. I wish I could remeber his name.........

  • Wojo article talks about Carr and the "Game"

  • Don't expect any news on Henne and Hart before Saturday morning. They both will play

  • Michigan Basketball expected to get two recruits today in the early signing period.

  • Look for the special Buckeye John, Michigan - OSU Preview today.
