First, I'd like to say thanks to those who have posted.

I've made no bones about the fact that I'm a Michigan fan, always have been always will. Yesterday the news of Bo's passing shocked me, but the grief hadn't set in,today it has. OF's words below ring so true.



I never met the man, but his influence on my life has been huge. I own a copy of his book Michigan Memories, that describes the traditions of not only of the University of Michigan football program, but the band as well, and how they are linked.

Thanks Bo, for being a part of my life, and for reminding me that

Those who stay, will be CHAMPIONS
