Don't Mess With Tradition - krulmichael's Michigan Wolverines

Pair Of Jeans Next Big Michigan QB?

Ann Arbor, MI - Reports out of Orlando, Florida this morning have confirmed that :4star: QB Levi Strauss (you read that right) has signed the LOI and will be joining the Maize n' Blue next season as well. This coming off of Michigan's recent 38-7 drubbing over Purdue, but with Freshman Devin Gardner tearing his throwing shoulder this could be a "Plan B" of sorts where in the worst case scenario Gardner doesn't fully recover. Strauss was actually born in Flint, Michigan but for the past 10 years has resided in the sunshine state. Strauss left a few comments to a local reporter, "Oh it's a big dream come true to go back to my roots. I know Michigan has plenty of young QB's that are capable of starting so I'll have to step up to the challenge. I'm excited."

Levi Strauss will be majoring in Business.

Lol, Levi Strauss

**beamerball811** · 08-04-2010, 09:13 PM

Levi Strauss lol, GL against Wisconsin

**krulmichael** · 08-05-2010, 04:27 PM

I confess. I did create him, the funny thing about it is he's actually a good friend of mine (yes he's real lol) and I made him his own height and everything. Obviously I was fair when creating a few guys. I also made me...I was interested in Michigan but since I'm the coach of Michigan, I'm not gonna take me. Luckily enough, I went to LSU instead of the possible Suckeyes or Wisconsin.
