OT, Thanks
Maybe to Mopper? who suggested to me to read Three and Out, by John Bacon about Rich Rod's time at Michigan. About 1/2 through the book. Fascinating stuff behind the scenes.

It was me. Pretty good book isn't it? After I read it, I found myself actually kinda liking Rich Rod. Seems like a dysfunctional program. I find their obsession with having to have a "Michigan Man" as HC really weird.

Sorry about that. Yeah it is really good. The back stabbing from day 1 and the hit squad lead by Rosenberg at the Free Press is very eye opening. Bill Koch went to extremes against UC, especially with the bogus letter on doctored UC letterhead accusing UC of covering up recruiting drinking and group sex/rape. Koch especially disliked Huggs and BK and it showed.
