Quote Of The Day
“Oh, I could not be more excited. They don’t know, but I’ve been secretly cheering for them before I even knew I was going to think about being here. I’m just going to be rooting on the guys until I can be out there with them next season. They need to win, they have to win — and they will. And they will. I’m super excited to get to Ann Arbor. I think I’m going to probably get out there even sooner than they need me to be just so I can be out there. The first day, I’m going to try to learn as much of the playbook as I can, even though spring ball is a ways away. But I’m just excited for it. It’s just a breath of fresh air to be able to be a part of a program like this.”
