Michigan Monday: Wolverines Run Fast This Weekend

The Wolverines were impressive at the NFL Combine this weekend.  The events go through today which will lead up to Michigan's pro day.   The Wolverines were impressive in the bench press and the 40 yard dash.  Here are a few 40 times:

Amara Darboh - 4.46
Jehu Chesson - 4.53
Jabrill Peppers - 4.46
Taco Charlton  - 4.92
Ben Gedeon - 4.75
New this morning:  DB Delano Hill runs a 4.48

Worm didn't run due to an injury.   Pep had a good time, I think he would have liked to run a 4.45, I thought Ben's time was really good. 

Remember when we thought Darboh was the slow WR?

Ben also did 27 reps on the 225 bench press, which was #1 for the LB's.

Pep will also work out with the DB's today and might run the 40 again.

Michigan Basketball also runs away from Nebraska on the road 93-57.  Michigan was favored by 4 point going in and won by 36.

This team is really good when they play really well.  Case in point, (thanks to twitter) Michigan has given the follow teams their biggest loss of the year:

MSU— 29
Indiana—30
Purdue—12
Marquette- 18
SMU—22
Nebraska- 36

This win should make the Wolverines a lock in the NCAA tournament.    They play Illinois on Thursday in the Big Ten Tournament in DC.   Coach B also tied the late Johnny Orr for the most wins as Michigan Basketball Coach.   Fun Big House Bob fact, Johnny Orr lived about 5 houses from me (when I was growing up) while he was the coach at Michigan.


  • Another point that the Wolverines had a good weekend.  Logan - The Wolverine Movie made 238 Million dollars world wide this weekend!
