Instagram Letter to President Ono - PLEASE UPVOTE TO SIGN
Hi all, I’m either vanarbor/bearnuckles, depending on which site you frequent the most.
I have crafted a letter to thank, support, and urge the president to continue backing our football team. The letter is short and succinct by design.
The plan is to post the letter onto Instagram via the most popular Michigan Athletics fan account @themichiganpage (nearly 100k followers), which President Ono follows and is operated by my friend. It will also be posted via collaboration onto my own personal account, which President Ono also follows, and has interacted with via Instagram story. Both the president and I are Wolverines from Vancouver, which has been the basis of our interactions.
I am confident that President Ono will see this post because of his active social media presence and the fact that he follows us.
PLEASE UPVOTE THIS POST TO SIGN YOUR MGOBLOG USERNAME onto to the second page of the letter (in a very small font). I will be able to access the user upvotes/signatures through my profile. We hope to get as many signatures as possible via MGoBoard, 247sports, On3, Rivals, and Reddit.
If possible, please also mention the number of other Michigan supporters you speak for so that we can tally the totals.
Thank you

GO BLUE!

1) Ono probably has already seen this and even given it his upvote.
2) "I will be able to access the user upvotes/signatures through my profile." You had a post on 10/21. Maybe someone's perusing that thread this morning and will upvote your comment there but not your post here. You wouldn't know the difference.

I am closely monitoring that comment to make sure there aren't any extra upvotes :)
November 4th, 2023 at 9:14 AM ^
You can count my family of six (total) with me.
November 4th, 2023 at 9:20 AM ^
Myself, my wife, and eight "children" from 21 down to 5.
November 4th, 2023 at 9:22 AM ^
The rest of the conference is scared of Jim Harbaugh
November 4th, 2023 at 9:25 AM ^
How do I sign it?
November 4th, 2023 at 9:36 AM ^
Go to the top of the OP and upvote it.
November 4th, 2023 at 9:28 AM ^
Thanks for doing this. I represent myself and 6 other Michigan supporters.
November 4th, 2023 at 9:32 AM ^
I don’t have the points to upvote, but count me in!
November 4th, 2023 at 9:40 AM ^
I upvoted some of your comments that weren't buried pages deep to try to get you to 100.
November 4th, 2023 at 9:41 AM ^
Hail yes! Upvoted! Go Blue!
November 4th, 2023 at 9:47 AM ^
What a great way to get points!
j/k. Thank you for doing this. I've sent e-mails to Warde and Ono but under my real name, not my assumed name.
November 4th, 2023 at 9:47 AM ^
Thank you for doing this. Our family of 5 is all in M Go Blue!
November 4th, 2023 at 9:54 AM ^
Done. In Ono we trust!
November 4th, 2023 at 10:03 AM ^
Only change I might suggest is it says the obvious “ no suspension without investigation “ “ due process “.
It’s not just that we believe our coach but we believe there’s a correct way to determine the truth and mete out justice if necessary. This is Michigan fergodsakes.
i speak for at least the 25 people on my group text.
November 4th, 2023 at 10:06 AM ^
I represent myself and sign off. Thank you, President Ono! Thank you so much for the continued support!

I'm angry. I've been a Wolverine in ohio my entire life. I'm younger(ish), so I never got to witness championship football. I've essentially been waiting my entire life for this team. And it's trying to be stolen from me.
It's not fair to the players, the staff, or the fan base. It's not fucking remotely fair. OF COURSE the best team in my lifetime is the recipient of a witch hunt and undue, unprecedented process.
It's Michigan, not Ohio, against the world. I will forever bleed blue. Through this, through the Rich Rod and Hoke eras, through 2016, and anything in the future. Forever and always, Go Blue. It is always great to be a Michigan Wolverine.

Upvote from a U-M alum (BS Arch '78 and BFA '81) whose paternal grandfather was a 1904 Michigan graduate
November 4th, 2023 at 10:28 AM ^
My paternal GF was an '02 grad! Virtual high 5!
November 4th, 2023 at 10:15 AM ^
Sign for Mr. Elbel. Someone’s gotta speak for The Victors.
November 4th, 2023 at 10:18 AM ^
Instagram? At least put a filter on the letter so it looks good.
(appreciate the effort)
November 4th, 2023 at 10:19 AM ^
Signing on for myself, parents, 2 siblings 13 nieces & nephews, & at least 50 family members back in the mitten.
Let due process take place (1) for sign gate & (2) for the origins of the P.I. investigation that was forwarded to the NCAA. And then leave the conference if this is mishandled by the B1G. Stay independent would be my preference. Go Blue
November 4th, 2023 at 10:24 AM ^
In addition to myself, I sign on behalf of the Cheshire Cat, the Queen of Hearts, Tweedledum, Tweedledee, the White Rabbit, and Alice.
November 4th, 2023 at 10:32 AM ^
Upvoted. Thanks for putting together.
November 4th, 2023 at 11:05 AM ^
Signing on behalf of my 2 daughters, son, and myself. When I explained why other teams are upset with Michigan to one of my 8 year old twins, her reply was, “that just sounds like excuses”
November 4th, 2023 at 11:06 AM ^
What if I down vote?
November 4th, 2023 at 11:06 AM ^
I speak for 6
November 4th, 2023 at 11:07 AM ^
Not on IG myself but this house of me, the wife, 2 kids, 2 cats, and a MIL are all Michigan fans in support of this idea! Go Blue!
November 4th, 2023 at 11:19 AM ^
Put me down emphatically.
November 4th, 2023 at 11:20 AM ^
Myself and my 2 sons....
GO BLUE!!!
November 4th, 2023 at 11:37 AM ^
My family of 4 agrees. (new and can't upvote yet)
November 4th, 2023 at 12:06 PM ^
Love this idea - speaking for at least 5 Michigan alums/fans.
November 4th, 2023 at 12:28 PM ^
Signed! I speak for 2 (1 alum, 1 former employee).
November 4th, 2023 at 1:17 PM ^

None-the-less, appreciate the effort, Go Blue!
