The Curse of the Illegal Cleats

Current college students have no memories of the Michigan Wolverines as a football bully.

It's not their fault; they just were born too late. Ann Arbor's freshest championship trophy carries a 2004 timestamp as well as an outmoded Big Ten logo phased out by B1G seven seasons later.

That was a decade ago. They can barely remember that, let alone Mike Hart.

It's the longest title drought in Michigan's history. But it could be worse, as far as so-called Blue Blood programs go: The Wolverines aren't the Volunteers. Tennessee hasn't won its conference in a cool 23 seasons.
