  • He is a link (photo and comments) from someone who sat next to Mitch McGary at the game.

    • I was about to post the same pic. It looks like the rain didn't dampen big Mitch's visit one bit:



      Another shot of McGary (just above Grady's left hand) enjoying a Michigan TD:

      • That would be a huge get (no pun intended) for the basketball team. McGary is a top-ten guy, who would make an immediate impact on the team. Only down side would be that he'd probably be a one-and-done guy. Still, I'd love to have him. Maybe the team could ride his coattails to a high NCAA finish, and draw some more top recruits to replace him.

        • The little guy looks like a young Zach Galifianakis..

          • It would be so, so big to get him here, even if he's a one-and-done. The ensuing perceptions will help recruiting plenty.

            • ESPN currently has Michigan at the top of Mitch's list:

              • Just to see the block M up there with those other names, as it once was so regularly -- it's already helping. Wonderful to see.

                Comment


                • Agreed. I just hope that he keeps them up top. I want to see that team as a national power once more. I think Coach Beilein & Co. have them heading that way already but Mitch McGary could be the final piece.

                  Comment


                  • He looks pretty pumped considering that may be the worst weather the Big House has seen since that 5-0 Purdue game.

                    Comment


                    • Well, it was really hot in A2 so I imagine the rain was welcomed by most (at least the under 55 crowd).

                      The Oohi game I went to in 2007 was worse. Rain and 35-40 degrees, complimented by about 10 Mesko punts.

                        ...and Henne's shoulder problem - could hardly raise his arm to throw the football. At least St. Jim called off the dogs and kept the score respectable.

                        • Old St. Jim sure caught a lot of our teams at our worst times. Very opportunistic, that man ....

                            They punted almost as much as we did. I seem to recall only 2 big plays and that got them the 14-3 win. Easily the ugliest game I've ever been to.

                            • The weather that day was nasty to be sure, but at no point during that game could I literally NOT SEE through the rain because it was coming down so hard. The rain this Saturday was like being stuck in a very wet blizzard.

                              I will give you the fact that at least it was warm. But I was bundled up pretty good in 2007, so the cold wasn't a big deal.
