Beating Michigan never gets old for us Ohio State fans, but has gotten a little, um, ho-hum of late.
Then this story broke today, as Duke backup point guard Greg Paulus visited Ann Arbor for spring football practices last week. A former highly-touted prep quarterback, whose brother plays QB for North Carolina, Paulus has used all four years of his basketball eligibility for the Blue Devils. If he switches to football, he's got one year left at any school he chooses.
Is this the best spring news ever? Could be.
Since UM is down to pretty much freshman Tate Forcier at QB, a little depth would be nice. And Paulus has been the poster boy of the whiny, overly-entitled Duke basketball player. It's a beautiful marriage. I could use some good ol' fashioned hate back in the rivalry. And he's easy to hate.
The best part is this: Duke coach David Cutcliffe did ask Paulus to come try out for the Blue Devils' football team - as long as he tried out at wide receiver.
Hmmm, can't cut it at Duke? Come play for Michigan!
That's awesome.

I so wanted to write about this, but it had to come from a Buckeye fan. I kept thinking the same thing. Duke doesn't even want him as a QB, but RichRod is very interested. I'm telling you, Michigan is 5-7 at best this season, and I think that's a stretch. I hope he goes to UM. No matter how good he was, he's been out too long to be good in one season.
