WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!! I'll be happy to make a return trip to the Big House to cheer on MY team.

I hope all my favorite bars from a decade ago when I lived there are still there.

I'm psyched if this is on, but it doesn't sound like it's definite yet according to Vautour.

McCutcheon's words tonight were "I have a contract on my desk that I have to sign."

Well shit, App State did it......why the hell can't we???? BRING IT BIG BLUE!!!!

Michigan plays Delaware State this year. Interestingly, the game is later in the season. Maybe Meff can get what he wants - a UMass/Michigan football/hockey doubleheader.

There is a contract point that we are not happy with.

Could be close to a $1M payout according to Dewey:
