U of M had plenty of influence on the Super Bowl Champions KC Chiefs, with Chad Henne as a back-up QB and Frank Clark as the starting DE. (Yes, I understand how Frank's time in Ann Arbor ended).
What was more interesting to me was the play that KC OC Eric Bieniemy stole from the 1948 Rose Bowl and Fritz Crisler. The play was the 4th and 1 full house backfield, 3 spin move and direct snap to the RB. The play worked for a first down and ended up on the 1 yard line. Here are both plays if your interested.
I tip my hat to the Super Bowl champs and to Eric going old school and plucking a heck of a good play from the Mad Magicians. I remember when Michigan's head coach would run old school unique plays in his first year at Michigan.
- X came back and Brandon Johns went for 20 as Michigan got a nice home win in NYC on Saturday over a ranked Rutgers team. I agree there are a lot of confusing statements in that sentence. Michigan did play a home game at MSG and Rutgers is ranked 25th in the country. This was a brilliant move for Coach B who scheduled this game as Michigan plays it best basketball at neutral sites. The Wolverines get to play Ohio State and Michigan State this week.
- Cade McNamara's brother Kyle has committed to Michigan. Kyle is a 5'8 170 pound WR. I assume this is a PWO offer as Kyle is ranked as a 2 star to 24/7. Kyle reports two offers to CMU and Ohio State. I'm guessing the OSU offer wasn't committable. Welcome Kyle!
- Michigan did get a confirmed PWO commit from Traverse City QB Peyton Smith. Peyton is a 2 star QB and the 153rd Pro Style QB in the 2020 class.
- Former Wolverine Stephen Spanellis is transferring to Vandy. Congrats Stephen and get that Vanderbilt graduate degree with your Michigan degree.
- Former Wolverine offense lineman Steve Hutchinson was named to the Pro Football Hall of Fame. Congrats Hutch!

I was just reading an article from another Michigan fansite that McNamara is a PWO.
