How are you getting the so early? Ive been looking for tickets for the Chick-Fil-A Kickoff to see my VOLS, and Ive yet to find any tickets...
Michigan began slow releasing them to season ticket holders a couple days ago. To my knowledge no public sale yet. Here is more info:

Feb. 7, 2012

ANN ARBOR, Mich. -- Due to an extremely high level of demand, the University of Michigan Athletic Ticket Office announced today (Tuesday, Feb. 7) that the University's allotment of tickets to the Cowboys Classic against Alabama is sold out. Michigan received just less than 25,000 tickets for the football team's 2012 season opener and sold out before a public sale could take place.

"We have received unprecedented interest in tickets for the Cowboys Classic game with Alabama," said chief marketing officer Hunter Lochmann. "The demand is on par or greater than our athletic department has ever seen."

If the athletic department receives standing room tickets, those will be offered in the following order:
  1. Victors Club members with 1-49 priority points without previous Cowboys Classic orders
  2. Michigan football season ticket holders with no priority points
  3. General public
Standing room ticket availability will not be known until late April. All individuals within the aforementioned groups will receive M-mail communication if and when standing room only tickets become available.

Michigan student football season ticket holders will be able to purchase in April. Information will be emailed in late February.

For the latest Cowboys Classic updates, please visit MGoBlue.com or follow the Michigan Athletic Ticket Office on Twitter attwitter.com/umichtix.

Michigan will open the 2012 season against defending national champion Alabama on Saturday, Sept. 1, at Cowboys Stadium in Arlington, Texas.


From what I heard, season ticket holders without priority points didn't even have the opportunity to purchase. Crazy. For all this nonsense about Michigan being able to travel well, we usually don't even come close to selling out a non-Rose bowl game. This is a big game, but a sell out like this is indeed unprecedented.

[h2]Source: Ted Gilmore leaves USC[/h2]

LOS ANGELES -- After just one season serving as the wide receivers coach for the USC Trojans, Ted Gilmore has been hired by the Oakland Raiders for the same position, according to a source close to the program.

Gilmore had a terrific year with the Trojans, as receivers Robert Woods and Marqise Lee both eclipsed the 1,000-yard mark and Woods set a Pac-12 conference record for catches in a season.

Gilmore leaves a good situation in L.A. Many have projected USC's receiving corps of Woods, Lee and talented second-year players George Farmer and Victor Blackwell as the potential best in the country in 2012.

It is an interesting twist in Gilmore's career, as coach Lane Kiffin attempted to hire him as the Raiders' receivers coach when serving as Oakland's head coach in 2007-08. Now, as Kiffin settles in for his third season at USC, Gilmore is leaving his staff for the silver and black.

The move leaves the Trojans with vacancies to fill at three coaching positions, as there are similar voids at defensive back and linebacker. Gilmore is the second coach to leave USC for the NFL in the span of a week, joining Joe Barry, who was hired by the San Diego Chargers as a linebackers coach after operating in the same capacity for the Trojans.

A source told ESPNLosAngeles.com's Pedro Moura that vetting and interviewing for the positions would begin in earnest this week after USC head coach Lane Kiffin put hiring on the backburner in the lead-up to National Signing Day last week.

USC's spring practice is scheduled to begin March 6.

Heck no Williams wasn't better than MoC. Over Howard and Teague, sure. 
I remember a picture of Fred Davis, Marcus Freeman, Ginn and Ray and Ray was actually smaller than Teddy, which is hard to do.

Williams ended up at D2 Shaw after getting out of the clink. I don't care about your background, if he was close to Clarett's level, some FCS school would at least sniff around.

Yup.  Then again, Mamba was a lock as well so who knows.
Kid is a BEAST.  Haven't seen a kid with his type of instincts from Southern California since Matt Grootegoed.
 
Is he a OLB for you guys???? Looks like he has a lot of room to grow and is already 210lbs

Don't think they let Cravens slip, frankly, don't see them slipping like they did with DAT.

On top of that, lack of RB's will help keep Cravens in the fold.
 
I read Michigan is recruiting Cravens at RB. Newbs, have you heard this? Anyone know if any other schools want him for RB?
