It might get you off the fence.
He sounds like Bo Schembechler and acts like him.
Brady talked about:
- it will always be about the team.
- the Michigan players will be about charter, effort, and toughness
- everyone associated with Michigan Football will respect the tradition of the Michigan program
- met with the team today and has spoken with Denard for about 15 minutes today and will talk to him more today as well.
- the Ohio State game is personal to him
- got emotional when talking about all the players that he has worked with.
- going to focus on building a staff, meeting with the players and working on the recruiting class
- there won't be any visits this weekend
David Brandon:
- 5 cities in 6 days
- interviewed several coaches face to face and via the phone
- 6 year term sheet
- Tate is not with the program
- Didn't know Brady before this process started but got to know him through face to face meeting.
- Brady took this job with out talking about salary. The only person David knew who had done that was Bo.
- Looking for a guy that loved this program and had a reputation as good coach/players coach.
- Doesn't need to teach Brady the Victors
- Liked that Brady knows how to coach defense
- this game is about the players and all the Michigan players have noticed Brady's National Championship ring and he also has 5 other Big Ten Championship rings.
There were about 10-20 former players at the press conference supporting Brady. Which is very telling.
