Michigan Students Will Bone You/Be Boned For OSU Tickets
According to a recent "study" conducted by the University of Michigan, there is a small fraction of the student body who will use sex in lieu of currency for various goods and services. According to Daniel Kruger, research scientist at the University of Michigan's School of Public Health, he's troubled by the fact that students who are "well provided for" will stoop to this whorey barter-and-trade system in exchange for various items including voice lessons, Louis Vitton bags, and, least surprisingly, Michigan-OSU tickets.

40 Acres And A Mountaineer
University of Michigan football coach Rich Rodriguez is still in a messy legal battle with his former team, West Virginia University, about his old contract and the upcoming trial could possibly get ugly. The issue? The legality of the $4 million buyout Rodriguez's team of hard-nosed attorneys allege he was forced to sign before he skipped over to Michigan. One of Rodriguez attorneys, Marv Robon, used this analogy to explain the "outrageousness" of such a contract stipulation. More »

Kevin Borseth Is Quite Passionate About Offensive Rebounding
You may not care about women's basketball, but don't say that around Michigan coach Kevin Borseth. He's, um, into the game. And as you may have picked up from this clip, he thinks that offensive rebounding is rather important. Not sure if he's ranting at his players or at the officiating here, but either way, it's fun.

West Virginians Should Get Out Of The Conspiracy Theory Business
There's been a wave of sympathy for Michigan in the past year, and I for one hoped they were going to find a good solid coach from the lower ranks to bring up, like Ohio State did with Jim Tressel. That didn't happen, and my sympathy swung to West Virginia for losing their fabled coach Rich Rodriguez. And the Detroit Free Press depicted how WV has treated not only Rich Rodriguez, but his family. Now my sympathy remains in limbo until a worthy football state comes forth to claim it. More »

Rich Rodriguez Blogdome
What they're saying around the Interwebs about Michigan's new football coach, Rich Rodriguez, who was introduced by the Wolverines this morning ...
• Pryor: Add Michigan To My List. The nation's No. 1 high school football prospect as ranked by Rivals.com — Jeanntte, Pa., quarterback Terrelle Pryor — apparently knew before most that West Virginia coach Rich Rodriguez was headed to Michigan as the Wolverines' new coach. "Add Michigan to my list," said Pryor early Sunday afternoon. "Rich Rod is headed to Michigan. I just spoke to him earlier this morning and he told me he's gone. I don't know when it will be announced, but it could be as early as today." Several media outlets then began reporting that Rodriguez told his West Virginia team that he was leaving for Michigan. "He's excited and so was I," said Pryor. "Michigan was on my early list, and now their right up there again. He's a great coach and I like his offense." [Genuinely Sarcastic]

Michigan Bids Adieu To Lloyd Carr
It's official: Several Michigan players went to visit Lloyd Carr in his cage on Sunday and it turns out that the only reason he had been standing up at all is that he had been nailed there. Yes, Carr is an ex-parrot. (And Brian Cook had it first, by the way, despite what "ESPN has learned.") Say what you will about Carr at Michigan — he has the sixth-highest winning percentage in Big Ten history, and his program had a repuation for being clean — but this job begins and ends with the Ohio State game. That, and that pretty much alone, is why Carr will be gardening next year at this time. These numbers pretty much say it all. More »

The Buckeyes And Wolverines Are Still Playing This Weekend
This year's Ohio State-Michigan game, thanks to Illinois' win last week (woo!) and the lack of a legendary coach dying right beforehand, doesn't quite have the inherent drama of last year's. But it's still freaking Ohio State-Michigan. More »

Carr Surely Has Lots To Contribute In This Friendship
