RIP: Bo Schembechler

A sad day for U of M fans - legendary coach Bo Schembechler passed away today at the age of 77.

The article gives his history, but I would obviously like to make a few comments.

I never liked Bo, but I respected him. He ran a clean, quality program at Michigan and gave a good name to college football in this country. He led the nation's winningest program for twenty-one years and was always a great opponent for the Irish. And he always remembered that college football's real wins came after graduation in the character and intelligence of the former players.

Bo, you will be missed. Hopefully your boys from Ann Arbor will be able to give you a proper send-off by crushing the Buckeyes tomorrow.
