Suggestion from Twitter: Meechie jerseys for charity
Saw a suggestion on Twitter that I loved: make an official jersey for Meechie, sell it through MDen or through official channels, and donate the proceeds to his family or a scholarship fund for his daughter.
Posting this here because I don't know the proper channels to go through, and I hope someone does. I would buy one in a heartbeat and I'd love to see the Michigan money cannon pointed towards this.

I think this is a great idea! I do not have any connection with which to advance it.
December 9th, 2022 at 9:36 PM ^
I think this is something that should happen. However it gets done, we should figure it out.
December 10th, 2022 at 3:52 PM ^
Agreed

Email warde and Harbaugh. Their admins might get it in front of the right people. Maybe talk with MDen since they should have a contact within the AD for apparel
December 9th, 2022 at 9:53 PM ^
Done, re: e-mailing Warde and Harbaugh. Unfortunately I'm no longer local, otherwise I'd be happy to stop in the MDen and reach out.
December 9th, 2022 at 9:55 PM ^
Warde will prolly take 9 months then roll it out so if you want it done timely try Ono.

I emailed coach. Hopefully we’ll have some luck. ❤️

How about just a Jersey inspired tshirt? Way less overhead and therefore a higher percentage of proceeds will go to his fam. I’m down for either though. Maybe our friends at underground printing can help us out.
edit: it would be infinitely awesome if these could be ready for 12/31!

T-shirts are a much better idea. Jerseys are too expensive for many as is, adding more cost will just price many out, along with those that have no interest in wearing a jersey.
Mden is swamped right now so I doubt they can put something together quickly. Hopefully there is another option that could work something out with the AD.

The obvious T-shirt is a simple shirt that says Meechigan…If underground printing/Mgoblog does that, I’d buy it
December 10th, 2022 at 11:02 AM ^
Meechigan sounds more like a Bob Ufer jersey. Perhaps it should say "Meechiegan."
December 10th, 2022 at 11:06 AM ^
That didn't resonate with me until you posted
December 9th, 2022 at 10:25 PM ^
Might be faster and much less complicated to start a Go Fund Me page, no?

His gofundme is still up. Some sort of public display/osteosarcoma awareness would be cool though. Especially if donned by the students at the game on 12/31 or even at the M bball games.
December 9th, 2022 at 10:57 PM ^
Yeah, I get that and strongly agree. I was just trying to be practical in getting the family funds quickly. (Note, they're currently at $280K and rising)

Seeing a number of Buckeye donations.
incredible.
December 10th, 2022 at 1:29 PM ^
Just donated. Thanks for the link. Easy to do and support his family. God bless Meechie!
December 9th, 2022 at 10:27 PM ^
This is my first comment. I just joined minutes ago so please go easy on me. Let me know if I'm out of line. I would like to see a t-shirt with " The Meechie-gan Wolverines on it.

Michigan fan money cannon, engage.
December 9th, 2022 at 10:31 PM ^
Harbaugh will dedicate the TCU game to Meechie.
December 10th, 2022 at 7:35 AM ^
I still have my Mealer shirt from Underground Printing so it can be done.
December 10th, 2022 at 8:25 AM ^
still have mine, too. was there when he walked out to touch the banner. 110,000 people with dust in their eyes....
December 10th, 2022 at 10:42 AM ^
Any updates on Mealer? Just wondering how he's doing. Also anyone know what happened to Barwis? He really helped him a lot.
December 10th, 2022 at 10:40 AM ^
Brock Mealer's Linkedin
December 10th, 2022 at 11:11 AM ^
I would definitely buy one of these
December 10th, 2022 at 2:10 PM ^
Win it all for Meechie!!
December 10th, 2022 at 4:21 PM ^
