Michigan’s Don Brown has thoughts on Ohio State hanging a hundred on the Wolverines

Michigan defensive coordinator Don Brown took the high road when being asked about Ohio State wanting to “hang a hundred” on the Wolverines.

The rivalry between Ohio State and Michigan runs deep as we all know, and yet each year, it seems some new fuel is thrown onto the fire.

2020 has been no different as it was reported earlier in the year during a B1G conference call that Jim Harbaugh interrupted Ryan Day, accusing the Buckeyes of holding workouts that were against Big Ten rules.

There has been no evidence of this type of violation and Coach Day was none too happy about the accusation reportedly firing back with “How about I worry about my team and you worry about yours?”

Afterword, it was rumored that Day told his team the Big Ten better have a mercy rule, because “we’re gonna hang a hundred on them.”

Don Brown, Michigan’s defensive coordinator, who has made the Wolverines one of the top defensive teams in the country since his arrival (but still can’t seem to stop the Buckeye freight train) was asked about Day’s alleged comments.

Brown took the high road saying “We get ready to play against them every day. … We got a lot of work to do. I’m keeping my mouth shut and going to work every day.”

Don Brown is smart enough not to give any more bulletin board material to the Buckeyes who have absolutely owned Michigan for the past two decades.

However, I’d be willing to bet that Brown is preaching a different message behind closed doors in the UM locker room… or maybe the Wolverines are finally wising up and realizing it’s not smart to keep poking the bear.
