Tweeted out by Sam Webb. Pretty self-explanatory:

...a guy who lightens the mood. I suspect he can be very blunt as well. He'll be one of the leaders of the team. And Brady Hoke is precisely the kind of coach who can let Ondre be Ondre. Another benefit if having a coach who does not believe it is all about him.

the hoke walk was perfect. peewee's going to be great here, and an ambassador.
January 6th, 2012 at 3:07 PM ^
several 100 times over the next 4 years. That was hilarious!
January 6th, 2012 at 3:08 PM ^
The next four years are going to be fun.

His personality coupled with whatever all the scouts saying he is real good could end up him being a fantastic recruiter on campus. Book it! From now on I will call him Ondre the Recruiter.

That was the funniest thing I have seen in a long while.
Go Blue FerGodsakes!

Man and I thought the other video was tremendous. This one is even more tremendous-er.

Pipkins hasn't played a down yet and he's already on his way to being one of my favorite Wolverines.
January 6th, 2012 at 4:36 PM ^
And I too agree... Pee Wee is already my favorite... I do feel bad for him though when these get ahold of him in the weight room and conditioning... Good to see he's as enthused about the program as he is. Hope he's a beast.

The fact that Pipkins finished his impression with "that gets me fired up everytime I go to the Big House" was the best part. Tells me he already loves his coach and wants to play for Michigan. I can't wait. Those 3 might be the best 3 of this class, I personally think this class is going to be the one that REALLY puts Michigan back where it belongs.
Also, the fact that Pipkins remembered every line of the speech, including the reporters questions...that's awesome.

I will never, ever tire of this clip. I hope it's part of the pregame video intro at the stadium for Hoke's entire tenure.
January 6th, 2012 at 4:36 PM ^
LOVE the walk.

maneater inside (a position which we will be thin at in the near future) check
talks about being a Michigan man check
values his education check
feeling "home" at Michigan check
will make press conferences incredibly entertaining the next 4 years check
I can't wait to see him wear the winged helmet. He may joke around some, but if you see the whole interview, he talks about the coaches at Michigan helping him become the best defensive tackle in the country. If he truly wants to be the best in the country, coach Mattison, Montogomery, and Hoke will absolutely help him get there.

He's from Detroit or Sagniaw, not sure where in particular...but he is from the state and has family here. So it is "home" to him literally.
January 6th, 2012 at 10:17 PM ^
He's from Saginaw. That's why he talks a lot about LaMarr Woodley as a mentor.
January 6th, 2012 at 11:00 PM ^
Ah, my favorite player (this week) is AC Vada-Molkley! This is full of win in so many ways. The fact that he is an in-state kid just makes it that much better.
January 6th, 2012 at 5:59 PM ^
That kid is such an entertaining character. Hilarious.
January 6th, 2012 at 6:20 PM ^
The chemistry that these guys already have, is the most entertaining part of these videos. You can't coach that. I love it.
January 6th, 2012 at 8:17 PM ^
I don't watch that many of these clips, but that one was amazing in its awesomeness. Pipkins is a crackup.
Thanks for posting this - I would have missed it otherwise.
