Michigan Tuesday: I Was Close But Picked the Wrong Guy

Prior to the draft, I predicted the Green Bay Packers would take Chase Winovich in the second round, give him #52, and have an able replacement for Clay Matthews (who signed with the Rams).    I was close, they actually used their 1st round pick on a Michigan Wolverine DE Rashan Gary, who now is expected to wear #52.


Good luck to Rashan and Chase in New England.

  • Speaking of former Wolverines, TE Ian Bunting is getting a shot in the NFL with a UDFA contract with the Chicago Bears.  Ian did a grad transfer to CAL this past season. 

  • Michigan finally has a better QB room then OSU.  Case in point, OSU has just accepted a grad transfer from UK QB Gunnar Hoak.   Gunnar is from Columbus and will have 2 years to play or actually back-up.  The kid gets free grad school, so you can't blame him. 

  • The Michigan Football Team leaves for Africa this week.  Photo below is an example of the Jordan gear they will be wearing on the trip.  

  • Peppers sponsored an Adidas shopping spree in NYC yesterday.

Hard to believe, UM football has not even won the BIG East yet, but I guess they lead the conference in overseas trips, if that makes you happy.

Second don't take a cheap shot at these boys. College isn't only about winning football games, even though we would love for them to win them all. It is also about growing up, learning about the world. If I had the opportunity to play at Michigan and also go on these trips. You bet your ass I would do it. These kids will have an amazing time in Africa! I am so happy coach Harbaugh does these trips for these kids.! Be safe and have fun!
