My grandfather who was born on April 1st used to say, "A fool was born on April Fools Day". My father who loves to run pranks today, even sent me a hedgehog at work in Ann Arbor years ago. I will save you the jokes and pranks today and just run with some football news - good and bad. Hope you find a few minutes for a smile today and everyday!
- The SEC coaches have an in league rule that won't allow their coaches to do camps outside 50 mile radius of their campus. The Big Ten and NCAA doesn't have that rule. James Franklin did a camp last summer in Georgia and now Jimmy and his band are heading for tour dates in 6 different locations, and one in Auburn's backyard in Prattville, Alabama. "I think the SEC coaches last year made it clear that we'd like it to be that way throughout the country," Malzahn said. "That was a stance after our last spring meetings and I still feel the same."
- Saban is probably not too worried about Jimmy's tour dates as he has had 3 players arrested in in 4 days: Suspended Crimson Tide running back Tyren Jones was arrested for possession of marijuana Tuesday in Tuscaloosa, joining dismissed defensive lineman Jonathan Taylor and sidelined safety Geno Smith on the last week's crime blotter.
- Scouts #1 basketball player in the nation, Jaylen Brown who seemly recruitment to Michigan continues to gain momentum, told ESPN that he will play at an Adidas school. Which leaves Michigan, UCLA and Kansas. Which could be good news for Michigan on the other had, I wish kids wouldn't choose a school on which shoe contract they have.
- There continues to be concern over Drake Harris hamstrings. He missed most of his senior year of high school and redshirted last year to make sure he was fully healed. He was making noise as being 100% healthy early in the spring and then reports started to come out that he had tweaked the hamstring again. The rumor mill is spinning that his hamstring might be more serious then a tweak and this could be a career effecting injury or condition. Drake was a highly ranked basketball and football player in high school and had originally committed to MSU to play basketball for Izzo. Let's hope the top tier medical staff at Michigan can figure this out and he can play ball again.

Going to play at an Adidas school.... WTF?
Lets hope that it's a coincidence that his top three are all Adidas schools, and that's why he said that.
Then again, 18 year old kids don't always make decisions for the best reasons.
Go Blue!!
"18 year old kids don't always make decisions for the best reasons."
Like Ryan Mallett deciding to attend Michigan because of the winged helmet ... then again, it is a cool helmet.
it is the coolest helmet...if you ask me
how about Weber sticking with osu because he wanted to be true to his word... how ironic did that decision turn out to be?
