2A - Thursday, February 19, 2009 The Michigan Daily - michigandaily.com 4 Ml In Other IN THE SPIRIT OF MLK Revenge on the Daily In October 1979, in the midst of his legendary career as head coach of the Michi- gan football team, Bo Schem- bechler brought his game plan for a strong defense off the field and aimed it at a Michi- gan Daily reporter. Dan Perrin, a senior sports editor covering football for the Daily at the time, was pri- vately interviewing Schem- bechler when the legendary coach became irate after being asked about the team's short- comings and shoved Perrin. Perrin had asked Schem- bechler how he planned to address the team's weak kick- ers, who had only miade one out of 10 field goals attempted that season. "Would you emphasize the kicking game more when recruiting from now on, after what's happened so far this season?" Perrin asked, accord- ing to a Michigan Daily article at the time. About to respond, Schem- bechler became angry about the question. Schembechler proceeded to knock the micro- phone Perrin was holding from his hand, poke him in the chest, then grab his throat and push him backward. "Don't try to make me look bad, you understand, son, or I'll throw you the hell out of Michigan football," he said. The incident took place at Wdber's Inn on Jackson Road, outside the press luncheon room the site of weekly press conferences with Schem- bechler. Despite being shaken, Per- rin was not particularly upset about the incident. Perrin attributed Schembechler's out- burst to the less-than-desired kicking record at the time. "I think Bo was just frus- trated with his kicking game, not necessarily angry with me as an individual," Perrin told the Daily at the time. Schembechler also appeared to have recovered from the incident. When asked by the Daily at the time about his reason for shoving Perrin, he laughed and said, "I don't even remember; you know these kids." Though the 1979 football season was not the Wolver- ines' best, finishing the season with an 8-4 record, Schem- bechler solidified his reputa- tion as an equally aggressive opponent both on and off the field. - DEVON THORSBY CHANEL VON HABSBURG-LOTHRINGEN/Dai Engineering students receive awards yesterday at 14th Annual North Campus Spirit of Martin Luther King Student Recognition Program.
