Aidan Hutchinson is B1G Defensive Player of the Week
https://bigten.org/news/2019/10/7/big-ten-football-players-of-the-week.aspx
Congrats to Aidan on the well-deserved honor. First Wolverine to win this award since Chase last October. Hutchinson seems like he's on the kind of trajectory where he makes 1st/2nd team all-B1G this year, All-American next year and off to the first round of the draft if he stays healthy and hungry.

He will stay hungry - he has all the intangibles to go along with his natural gifts. Congrats Aidan and looking forward to 1.5 more years of domination from you!

Earned.

May our Anchor spot have a line of succession of large, rhyming white boys that lasts an eternity.
Aidan to Braiden
Braiden to Caden
Caden to Jayden
Jayden to Peighden
Peighden to Xaden
and so on and so forth until the whites run out of names.

Have you been sampling medications this morning, Doc?

Fantastic news. On a related note, he and Kwity Paye (who had an equally strong argument for this award this week) have apparently been calling themselves "salt and pepper", which is all sorts of awesome. Rather than derisively compare and contrast them like Gary and Winovich, I hope the fans and media celebrate their synergy on the field.

whoa whoa whoa let's not cycle through the alphabet quite that quick. how about a Daiden or Gaiden? (especially Gaiden for the endless Ninja Gaiden references)

But I thought the anchors don't get stats, like Rashan Gary didn't.

Good for BH!
Separately: This is a bit meta, but I wish the conference hadn't changed its logo. Now people commonly spell it "the B1G" and pronounce it "The Big." Maybe I'm just an elderly thirtysomething, but spelling "Big Ten" was never hard, always accurate, and used to be more common.
Oh the new ways you vex me, conference expansion.

Very happy for Aiden. May he win this award many times over!

Congrats young man. Plays his ass off, motor always going...dude is going to keep growing into a stud player throughout this year. Sky is the limit for this young man.

That impressive defensive effort deserved awards, starting but not ending with Hutchinson.
October 7th, 2019 at 11:29 AM ^
seems like d line has improved. It's more than just Dwumfour returning. They've corrected mistakes with coaching it seems
October 7th, 2019 at 11:47 AM ^
How did we not win OPOW as well?
October 7th, 2019 at 12:08 PM ^
Monster. Thanks Aidan

That can’t be. Many on this board was calling for coach brown to be fired! The D line is supposed to be junk! The season was over at Wisconsin! You mean.... you mean many on this blog are. Wrong and there is real talent on Michigans defensive front! No I can’t accept this news. I’ve completely lost confidence in the ex. Perts. on this board
October 7th, 2019 at 1:59 PM ^
Hopefully the first of many.
October 7th, 2019 at 10:01 PM ^
Can he play on the o line?
October 9th, 2019 at 6:27 PM ^
Congrats to him. He's fun to watch... Same type of energy as Winovich.
