A while back legendary Michigan Football Equipment Manager Jon Falk told me the story of how Anthony Carter was given the #1 jersey to wear by Coach Bo Schembechler. He also told me that Bo went to unbelievable lengths to get AC to come to Ann Arbor.
Recently I tracked down former U-M coaches Bill McCartney and Don Nehlen to get the real details of how Carter became a Wolverine.
