UM: Football

With Monday’s news that Michigan’s football coaches for almost a year didn’t turn in mandatory reports to track the amount of time players practice, columnists and bloggers are riffing on what this means for the program. On The Rivalry Esq., a blog devoted to Michigan/Ohio State, a post titled “Michigan: An Autopsy” is particularly descriptive: “The once proud maize and blue has sunk into the soft wet earth, an expressionless program silenced by progress and frozen in time. When I think of Michigan today I see a corpse – a cruel, and unfamiliar face, hollow cavities soaked in iodine, and pale fists clenched in a lonely resolve.” [Source]
