So it goes with nearly everything at Michigan when it comes to athletics. The department hides from the public. There is a code of silence on trivial matters and important matters both, as if no one there can tell the difference. Can't ask about the quarterbacks, can't ask about NCAA violations, can't ask anything. Practices are closed.
Players are unavailable.
The media is frustrated and therefore more curious than ever. Just two days ago, reporters from some of the highest-regarded newspapers in the nation vented in the Notre Dame press box about how rude and unaccomodating Michigan is to the media. If Goss has the guts, he has the opportunity to change all that. He's a Michigan man, but being from California, he's enough of an outsider to have new ideas. He's got a business background.
