Michigan head coach Lloyd Carr, who rarely met a rout he couldn't turn into a nailbiter, announces his retirement Monday morning in Ann Arbor.
It's refreshing to know his players are too busy participating in football, school and life to frequent online fan sites; as The Ann Arbor News reported Sunday night:
"His announcement (at a team meeting) caught some players off guard."
This brings to mind Captain Louis Renault's quote in Casablanca when he is alerted to gambling taking place in Rick's Cafe: "I'm shocked, shocked to find that gambling is going on here!"
Here's looking at you coach. We'll always have 1997.
Thanks Lloyd.
