Tweets Of The Day
Four-star Michigan quarterback commit Jadyn Davis and wideout pledge Channing Goodwin helped their Charlotte (N.C.) Providence Day team to the state championship, with a 34-27 win Friday night. The Wolverine’s EJ Holland was on hand to cover it.
Davis was 19-for-36 passing for 266 yards and 2 touchdowns with 2 interceptions. He “showed a lot of moxie and leadership in the fourth” quarter, per Holland.
Michigan is looking for its 1,000th win Saturday at Maryland.
Head coach Jim Harbaugh said earlier this season that the program was already making plans for how it will commemorate the 1,000th win. Perhaps the Wolverines will give rings to the team and past players and coaches, or hold some sort of celebration.
“It’s in our wildest dreams, that’s what we hope for, that’s what we worked for was that we’d have a chance to play in our 11th game this season — chance to get that 1,000,” Harbaugh said this week. “And just really want to shout out the Green Bay Packers — most wins in NFL history, 793. Most wins in high school football — Valdosta, Georgia, 951. And Michigan Wolverines, 999. No one has won more. Nobody.
“I want to thank especially everyone who has put on the winged helmet, all those that have contributed and those that have supported their efforts.”
Michigan has quite the lead on the rest of college football programs, with 36 more than second-place Ohio State. Alabama (962), Texas (945) and Notre Dame (945) are looming behind the Buckeyes.
Michigan is one of nine NCAA teams with 900 or more victories and one of six with a winning percentage of .700 or better.

Quote Of The Day
“He’s the ultimate kid you want leading your program. He’s super talented with God given ability. But when your best player is your best kid, it makes your life a lot easier as a head coach. That’s what he is. He’s very coachable. He works hard. He’s low maintenance. He’s just one of the guys. He’s an incredible locker room guy. He loves the friendships and the brotherhood. He really values that. He turns around and plays at a high level. He feels the responsibility to play for his teammates. He’s a pillar of our program. Clearly, we lean on him to do a lot of things, but he’s one of the leaders of our team. He sits on our leadership council. He’s just a great kid. He’s well-respected inside the school. Leadership is sometimes hard to find in young kids, but he’s an incredible leader.”
