The Wolver- ines scored 22 regular-season victories under Steve Fisher in 1989-90. That was Fisher's first full season on the job, but he did take over as the interim head coach in the 1988-99 postseason. It was one of those things where if things weren't perfect anywhere or anything else, I'm going to stay at Michigan, because I do love it here, and I love the players here. We had a lot of fun, especially toward the end of the year, and I'm looking forward to starting that all over again." — Defensive coordinator Wink Martindale on interviewing for NFL jobs but staying at U-M (via "In The Trenches") The kid is an amazing human being. He is extremely selfless. He's extremely humble, and all he wants to do is work. That's all he wants to do. You see that he is the number one player in the country, and you have this vision of what it could be and who he is. He's the exact opposite of a prima donna and a 'I think I got all the answers' guy. He's the first guy in the building. He's the last one out. He told us, 'You're going to have to tell me when to leave.' The dude just does not want to leave the building." — Head football coach Sherrone Moore on freshman early enrollee quarterback Bryce Underwood (via "Next Up" with Adam Breneman) ❱ INSIDE MICHIGAN ATHLETICS NUMBERS AND QUOTES BY CLAYTON SAYFIE You saw the tougher team mentally and physically wear us out in the second half.
