I’ve had these two up on my screen for a couple days now, so it’s time to get the blogged. We’ve got the story of the Little Brown Jug and the athletic director who hired Bo.

Yes, I know the Minnesota game was a while ago, but this will be good reference material later.

• The Free Press included a primer on the Little Brown Jug as part of their game preview.
  
• There’s a longer version of the story (and some other background) on the university’s sports site.

The other piece of note is an interview the Daily did with former athletic director Don Canham, who some may only know for the natatorium that bears his name on campus, but who may have turned around the fortunes of Michigan football with the hire he made in 1968. BTW, he almost offered the job to Joe Paterno.
