UM: Sports

Writing in the Wall Street Journal with the headline “Hey, Michigan Won Something!” Darren Everson looks at UM’s struggling football and basketball programs, and notes the one bright spot: the men’s hockey team, which clinched a spot in the NCAA tournament. The column quotes UM’s new athletic director, David Brandon: “We’re just not good at losing, and I hope we never get good at it. We’ve been blessed to have programs that are always competitive, so as we go through this down cycle, we don’t like it.” [Source]
