Michigan Monday: The Victors Rally

Rick Leach and others are hosting the first annual Victors Rally at the Michigan Theater in Ann Arbor on Sunday, February 21st. This will be a celebration of Michigan Football past, present, and future. The guest speakers include Rich Rodriguez, Rick Leach, and other former players and coaches. I also expect a number of current players will be on hand to sign autographs. They are also saying there might be a few surprises??

Here are the logistics again: Michigan Theater, this Sunday from 1:00-3:30. Tickets are $5 for Adults, Students $2, and kids 12 and under are free. 734-668-time.

• Michigan has offered 2011 WR prospect from Massilon, OH Devin Smith. Devin is 6'1 and 175 pounds. Michigan will most likely only take 2 WR's in this class, so they will be very picky on who they offer. Devin right now has offers from MSU, Toledo, and Ball State. OSU is showing interest. Recent Michigan signee from the 2009 class, Justin Turner is also from Massilon.

• The New Big House Club Seats and Suites are selling well: Parker says 58 of the 81 suites are spoken for and 47 of them have been paid for completely, adding he's confident the other 11 will be soon.---- Parker said the school has commitments for 2,822 of its 3,685 club seats. How much you ask? Suites range in price from $55,000 to $85,000 and include 16 tickets, parking and a three-, five- or seven-year pledge. Club seats cost between $1,500 to $4,000 per seat plus the cost of tickets and include a one-year term. Eighty percent of costs for the suites and club seats are tax deductible.

• Former 5 star LB Arthur Brown leaves the University of Miami's program and heads home. His dad said that he was the one that made the decision: "I thought it was time for him to come home. He needed the support,'' Arthur Sr. said. " He has spent a tremendous amount of time away from people who love him." The above article states that Arthur was having a hard time grasping the Canes Defense the past two years.
