| I heard he collapsed but not that he had died.
RIP.
My favorite Bo moment was him (Bo as AD) telling Freider (sp?) to hit the road prior to the NCAA tourney after Freider announced he was leaving. Something like "A Michigan man is going to coach Michigan". That decision worked out pretty good.

| Sad day. He was always who I associated Michigan football with, even after he stepped down.

| Don't know what NCAA rules are on tributes on the uniform, but I was thinking earlier it would be nice if they took that middle of the three stripes on the Michigan helmet and changed it to black for the game.... |
