A day before THE BIG GAME, the legendary Bo Schembechler dies from a heart attack. While, as far as I can recall, Michigan never won the national championship in football under Bo, his famous words "A Michigan man is going to coach Michigan" and firing of Bill Frieder while Michigan's AD, on the eve of the 1989 NCAA tournament was key in Michigan capturing the basketball crown. Frieder would have over-coached that extremely talented team long before the title game!
RIP, Bo and GO BLUE!!
