My dad... The oldest of eight.. Grew up in Dearborn. His dad was a tool and die maker at the Ford Motor Company and part of the development team for the Mustang. My mother was from Jackson where her dad worked 35 years as a tire builder at Goodyear. My dad would look for a ride to Ann Arbor after his Friday night football game. If no one was going to the game, he'd hitchhike there. He never had the money for a ticket so he'd jump the fence and sneak in. Dad said he got his pants caught one time... The ushers saw him and threw him out. But my dad loved Michigan football and snuck back in during halftime. He saw every Michigan home game from 1947-1950 just that way. And it was worth the effort. Michigan was back to back National Champions in 1947 and 1948. I remember taking our battery operated radio outside on Saturdays while dad and I did yard work... Bob Ufer could be heard over a John Deere riding mower causing dad and I to occasionally pause to hear Michigan football heroics... But sometimes to laugh hysterically at Ufer-isms. Boy were those good times! One of the greatest legacies my dad left to me was a passionate love of Michigan football and all things Mee-chee-gan. There is no greater fight song than "Hail To The Victor's" and this video is my favorite rendition on the internet. Tears well up in my eyes every time I watch it. I get extra emotional over it realizing that it was written by Ernie Elbel.. From my home town of South Bend, Indiana... on the bus ride back from Chicago after the Wolverines captured their first conference championship by beating the University of Chicago. True Michigan football historians already know this... But U of M has been the beneficiary of many great players who hailed from the Hoosier state, as well. The most famous of all... I'm sure you've heard of him... Was Tom Harmon.. From Rensselaer, Indiana... Michigan's first Heisman Trophy winner in 1940. The current Michigan team has at least two Indiana kids on the roster... Backup QB Brandon Peter's who was "Mr. Football" as a high school player from Avon, Indiana... And RB Chris Evans from Indianapolis Ben Davis High School. Chris is a great compliment to Karon Higdon in Michigan's running attack and has four touchdowns this season for the Maize and Blue. Peters hasn't seen many snaps this year but we all need to pull for him now that McCaffrey is down with a broken collar bone. GO BLUE!

The sound of the U of M Marching Band always gives me chills. If you like marching bands you will love it in the auditorium. I am also impressed by the precision. Whether they smile of not is unimportant. Not everyone likes to smile. It is how they play that counts.

Amen to the rushing. Listening to our recordings circa 2000 we rushed back then too 🎺😭

Check recordings in the 1960s. You'll notice quite a difference, the absence of Igor Beevor, the famous Rushin' Musician.

It ain't X-cadence if it ain't played around MM 180-220, right? Of course, the entrance to the stage at Hill is a bit longer than the entrance to the field at a game, so this requires a bit more endurance than on game day....

Remarkable, eh? UCSD grad here (same school colors, btw)...no football team so we cheer (well, some of us) for the sister campus up north (and goodness, they're going to join you conference in '24). Your fight song is unmatched overall (lyrics, music, college spirit infused and conveyed) and your bands over the decades (especially under Revelli, the Toscanini of band directors) were always among the best, if not the best, in the country (sorry y'all - especially OSU, fine as your band looks as you "cross the field" with that pretty fair rouser of a tune). Spartans might as well start waving their white flags of capitulation.
