  • Jeremy Gallon, Cameron Gordon, J.T. Turner, and Thomas Gordon are some of the players being redshirted that have stood out to Rich Rodriguez.  The same goes for offensive linemen Taylor Lewan, Quinton Washington, and Michael Schofield.
  • There is an interesting two-part feature on MGoBlue about how much work goes into traveling to away games.
  • Rich Rodriguez appreciates Bill Martin’s support.
  • Michigan-native and U-M fan (all of his supporters were decked out in maize and blue and block Ms) Joe Cada won the World Series of Poker, taking home a cool $8.5 million for becoming the youngest champion ever.  Based on what he said last month when asked what he would do if he became the champion, it looks like Cada could be celebrating the victory at the Ohio State game.

    There’s one thing for sure, though. If Cada does win, the 21-year-old is going to throw two big parties: one in Vegas, the other in Michigan.

    “I have no idea where the party in Vegas is going to be, but everyone is invited,” Cada said. “It’s going to be huge if I win the main event.”

    As for Michigan, he had another small idea: “Party at the Big House.”

    One thing is for sure: The high ticket prices for the OSU game certainly won’t be a problem for Cada.
