Early in the year I heard that Kelly doesn't let his team hit each other in practices. I hope that's true, and I hope he takes that with him to Michigan if he were to go there.

Perhaps Kelly could use that to provide a decided schematic advantage over at least one coach in college football.

So any scUM recruits going to start looking elsewhere?? Half of choosing a school as a high school kid is how well you believe in and trust the head coach. It's gotta feel like a good fit. If he's gone...hmmm...

The most important recruit in the class is. CB Boubacar Cissoko has said that if UM doesn't hire from within, he's likely gone, most likely to Illinois where he and Vontae Davis have become good friends.

Well they'll have to hire someone with small children so the coach can take over the coaching and the small children can take over VIoyd's whining.

Otherwise, there are worse guys around I suppose. Happy retirement VIoyd...glad the Buckeyes were there to see you off. :biggrin::biggrin::biggrin:

FINAL STARE DOWN: There's give-and-take in any respectful relationship

It's a badge of honor, really. If you have covered Michigan football and Lloyd Carr and you haven't received the "Lloyd Carr Stare," you have missed out.
I have enjoyed my share of Lloyd Carr stares and glares, and there are different kinds that hold different meanings.
There is the really ticked-off stare, the one that lasts about 10 seconds and says: I can't believe you just asked that and don't even think for a moment I'm going to answer it. I'm not sure I even like you right now.
There is the less-pronounced stare, the look-away, subtle shaking of his head and a gruff, annoyed sigh. That one reads this way: Less anger but total disgust. Again, you are not going to get an answer, certainly not the one you want.

Then there is the stare he can't hold, followed by a quick smile. That one is all acting. Typically, it elicits much laughter.
It is difficult to reconstruct all that has happened in 13 years of covering Michigan football under Carr. It has been interesting, to say the least. I can honestly say I have enjoyed the journey and the development of a respectful relationship between coach and reporter.
