About Dean »

I grew up in Michigan as a U of M fan. I am in Illinois as a U of M fan. I don't know where I will die but I'll guaruntee that I will still be a U of M fan. I was born in Owosso, MI, a small town about 40 minutes from Lansing to an Oklahoma fan and someone who knew next to nothing about football. I have a younger brother who couldn't tell me the difference between Bo Schembechler and Bo Derek. Life is rough... But I make the best of it. My best friend is one of the most knowlegable people I know when it comes to anything sports related so I always have him to fall back on. I work in an office with a bunch of computer programmers so you do the math cause I'm tired of it.

SEC media policy makes it hard on fans, freelance journalists (of which many B/R writers are both). Thoughts?

What do you think about Rodriguez changing the tradition at UM and putting the #1 jersey on defense? I personally thought it was stupid and took away from the excitement wideouts who look forward to battling for the top spot, getting that distinction.

I wish Rich would not have put so much stock in landing Pryor. By doing that he handicapped the QB position when we failed to sign him. Let's hope he recruits like he did at West Virginia.

Thanks for fixing that mistake. I think I saw a chart on Heisman Trophy QBs winning national championships and forgot that it didn't include all positions. Just an honest mistake.

Good luck to your Wolverines. I'm looking forward to when they regroup so that my Gators will have a chance for some payback for the past couple losses.

My wife and I coach high school basketball, so I don't have quite as much time in the winter. I am writing "Carrying On About Purdue Basketball" every Friday...this article explains the concept.
