In the last few years, the Michigan football team had a few occasions where they needed to make a quick call. Fortunately, the Wolverines’ corners often picked up the phone.

Michigan Football’s team captains shift away from senior-only tradition

Former Michigan QB Davis Warren named Stanford’s starter

It wasn’t always pretty for Davis Warren wearing maize and blue.
