There are...
...days until Brendant Englemon (S 2003-2007) supports Michigan in spirit as they face CSU on September 3rd in Ann Arbor.
Go Blue, and Rest In Peace #31.
There IS also...
...MONTHS until Greg McMurtry (WR 1986-1989) watches the Wolverines begin their 2022 season on a Saturday afternoon at the Big House!
G.M. was one of the great recruits of that time period. An elite prospect at both WR and baseball, Bo had to win him from the Boston Red Sox who drafted him. Fortunately for us, McMurtry chose football.

1 month!
Be still my beating heart.
Here is the 2007 edition of the Michigan-Illinois "series" (which will be renewed this coming season), where Mr. Englemon tallied a final season-high 11 tackles...
Enjoy, thanks WH!
Yesterday's NIL Spotlight was postponed in light of more prudent news.
Especially given the lack of a need for one today, let's give belated shoutouts to senior linebacker Nolan Knight and junior linebacker Jayden Harrell!

RIP Brendant, you were way, way, way too young to die.

I feel like an idiot…either didn’t know or just didn’t remember that Englemon passed. What happened and when?

2021. JWG included the obituary above.
Terrible to see people half your age who have passed on, the wheel of chance spins and lands on your number. *sigh* At least he outlived these folk who passed away at age 35:
Mozart
Stevie Ray Vaughn
Guy Fawkes
Andy Kaufman
Jaco Pastorius
Nicole Brown Simpson *
* - Had problems with her choice in men.

Rest In peace, Brendent. Thanks, JWG, for posting him for #31 and for including his obituary. What an outstanding person he was.
