The Michigan Athletic Department has announced the date for the 2013 Spring Game. This is great news for Wolverines’ fans going through football withdrawal. It is also exciting for those of us that collect Michigan game worn jerseys. In past years, the athletic department has auctioned items worn during the spring game. I will be checking the www.mgoblue.com auction site often for the spring game jersey auction.
After the 2011 spring game, the patches worn on the jerseys were auctioned off. I ended up as high bidder of the Rimington Award winning David Molk’s game worn patch.
The 2011 auction appeared to be a great success and in 2012, the game jerseys with the patches were sold. Bidding was heavy and some of the jerseys went for large sums. Denard’s 2012 spring game worn jersey sold for a cool $1,620, in spite of him participating in a limited number of plays. Most jerseys sell for much less, but because this was Denard’s final season, it was in high demand.

As my blog matures, I hope to bring ideas and discussions involving Michigan athletics and fans.
