SUMMER EMPLOYMENT
Under current
staff, defensive line
coach still feels at
home at Michigan
By JAKE LOURIM
Managing Sports Editor
In Greg Mattison’s 37th year
of coaching, at his 11th program,
there’s plenty of reason for him
to be unsatisfied with the role
of defensive line coach.
Or,
knowing
the
opportunities he had in the
off-season,
to
want
to
be
somewhere else. There’s a new
head coach, a new defensive
coordinator and a new role — a
smaller role.
But Mattison is just fine in
his second stint at Michigan.
“I feel very fortunate to
be able to stay at Michigan,”
Mattison said. “I love Michigan,
and I feel very strongly about
the players coming back and
the guys in this program, and I
feel very strongly about Coach
(Jim) Harbaugh. I’ve known
that family for a long time, and
it’s just great to be back.”
Mattison
worked
under
Harbaugh’s father, Jack, at
Western Michigan from 1982-
1986, first as a defensive line
coach and then as a defensive
coordinator. Now, he’s back on
another Harbaugh staff.
When Harbaugh came to
Michigan, he hired D.J. Durkin
from Florida to take over the
defensive
coordinator
post
Mattison had held for four
years
under
former
coach
Brady Hoke. Durkin is also the
linebackers coach.
Then
Harbaugh
asked
Mattison,
the
Super
Bowl-
winning defensive coordinator,
to stay on staff as a defensive
line coach.
“I’ve coached defensive line
my whole life,” Mattison said.
“You can get guys to be better.
You can make improvements
there through technique and
through hard work.”
Still, it was a demotion,
essentially, for an accomplished
coach who could have gone
somewhere else.
“I had a number of offers,
some in the NFL and things
like that,” Mattison said. “But I
made up my mind that if I had
the opportunity, I’d love to stay,
and I did. So I stayed.”
The reason was sentimental,
just like when he left the
Baltimore
Ravens
the
first
time to join Hoke’s staff. It
was Michigan, the place he
has coached at least four years
longer than each of the other
10 stops. And it was under
Harbaugh,
who had won
in college and
in
the
NFL
and
whom
he
knew
personally.
Thursday,
he
had
nothing
but
positive
things to say
about
his
new role: no complaints, no
interference, not a backhanded
comment toward the new staff.
“Not at all,” Mattison said.
“I really respect the guy I’m
working with and the guys I’m
working with. I’ve done that for
so long that sometimes you say,
it’s kind of enjoyable just to take
these four guys and see how
good they can be.
“I knew that when Jim
hired me. There’s only one
coordinator, and what he says,
we do. Once you get that, you
say, ‘OK, my job now is to
coordinate the defensive line
and to do a great job with that.’
I’ve done it so long and I’ve had
so many opportunities to do it,
it’s about really just seeing how
good we can get this team.”
So after four years under
Hoke, Mattison came back to
finish what he started. After
all, only one of their recruiting
classes has made it all the way
through.
But he would object to the
term “finish.”
“I don’t know if it’s to finish,
because when you’re finished
you say it’s over,” Mattison said.
“I just wanted to stay a part
of what Michigan is and what
Michigan will be and what
Michigan has been forever.
“I think that’s coming. I want
to be a part of that, and I’m
fortunate to be a part of it.”
He
also
served
as
a
stabilizing
force
during
a tumultuous
offseason
with
the
coaching
transition.
When
players
had
the
chance
to leave the
program for a fresh start,
unsure of the new coach,
Mattison kept the ship steady.
“The message was, ‘Hey, this
is Michigan. You came here
because it’s Michigan. Don’t be
thinking about doing anything
else. You’re staying here. It’s
going to work out. Everything’s
going to be good,’ ” he said.
“And that’s the only thing I’ve
ever said to them.”
It worked.
“It tells you that you recruit
the right guys,” Mattison said.
“And they’re Michigan guys.”
He has many of them back
for his fifth season, and once
again, Mattison is standing
behind them. He didn’t have to,
but he’s along for one more ride
after all.

EVENT PREVIEW
Men! Men! Men! a
dissection of gender
By GRACE HAMILTON
Daily Arts Writer
A fetishized bicycle, spiked
high heels, decadent strings of
pearls and football uniforms
will
decorate
six
dancers
as
they
poke
and
twist
our
concept
of
gender.
The
hourlong
program,
“Men!
Men!
Men!” curated
by
Thurnau
Professor
of Dance Peter Sparling, is
a
complement
to
UMMA’s
exhibition
of
the
Hergott
Shepard
Photography
Collection.
The
world-acclaimed
collection,
running
through
June at the museum with
Mario
Codognato
as
guest
curator,
focuses
on
the
concept of masculinity and the
complexity of male identity in
contemporary society. Nadine
Hubbs, Professor of Women’s
studies and Music, and MFA
student
Michael
Parmelee
assisted in the curation of
“Men! Men! Men!”
Sparling, who has been at
the University for the last 30
years, made a name for himself
by integrating dance with the
visual arts, sciences, video
and
other
creative
media,
establishing
a
long-standing
relationship with UMMA.
Sparling sent out a call for
students
to
consider
what
it
meant
to
explore
male
identities.
He
received
six
enthusiastic responses, from
four current students and two
alumni. The dancers are Maddy
Rager and Chris Sies, Marcus
White,
Michael
Parmelee
and Amy Guilmette, Anthony
Alterio and Tru Yunkman.
“One of the alums, Amy
Guilmette,
responded
immediately after I sent the call
saying ‘you know, this makes
me think of how I have always
felt that I am a seven-year-
old boy in a woman’s body,’”
Sparling said.
Each piece will bravely tell a
different story, like this one.
“If people are shocked or
offended, that’s their problem.
I kind of hope that some people
are. I want, and the performers
want, to jostle people out of
their complacency,” Sparling
said.
Undoubtedly,
the
performance will be a spectacle.
He describes several of the
highlights to provide a sense
of its range: Tru Yunkman
uses dance to transform from
woman
to
man,
Michael
Parma Lee explores sexuality
through his dialogue with a
bicycle and Maddy Rager and
her
percussionist
partner,
Chris Sies, will wear football
uniforms from the high school
her father teaches at, in a duet
usually performed in baroque
costume.
Curating moving bodies is
different than curating stationary
objects, like paintings or photos.
“In curating a performance,
I think about whether there is
a common thread throughout,
or whether there isn’t, and how
to maximize juxtapositions so
that contrasts come forward and
it doesn’t all blend together,”
Sparling said. “So how do you
arrange the trajectory so that you
get the most impact out of the
whole cumulative effect?”
Modern dance has had an
important role in addressing social
and political themes for decades.
Recently, dance has partnered
more frequently with other kinds
of art and within performance art
to address complicated issues, like
gender, tying itself more closely to
politics.
“In more and more cultural
theory,
the
moving
dancing
body is being considered as a
text to be read about everything
and anything in its culture and
environment,” Sparling said.
“Here at U of M and in the
broader field of dance, we’re
really looking at contemporary
dance as a barometer for the way
that people react and behave and
how their bodies and motions
tell everything about how they
project their identity within a
culture.”
Sparling has a strong belief
in the unique power of moving
bodies to affect people deeply in
a way that other forms of art, like
text and even photographs, which
can act as filters, cannot.
“Dance cuts through to a
part of the brain that reacts and
responds
viscerally.
There’s
something immediate about a live
body in the same space you’re in.
It’s dangerous!” he said.
The pieces will be performed
in the old wing of the museum,
within the apse, without the
familiar safety of stage. This
proximity is a personal invitation
to audience members to step
outside of their comfort zones and
engage with the questions raised
before them.
“Hopefully, people are at an
age (and at a place of learning)
where they want to learn about
themselves. And of course, at the
ages of 18 to 25, it’s a hot time to
try and figure out who in the hell
you are. So why not be engaged
and challenge yourself to think
about these things like gender
identity?” Sparling said, appealing
to students.
“Men! Men! Men!” exemplifies
the role of contemporary dance,
pushing
the
boundaries
of
art, convention, space, bodies
themselves
and
audience
members.
While
the
pieces
themselves will step outside of
the box, audience members will
be required to do so as well.

Box: Men!

Penalty kill lifts
Michigan to win
By ZACH SHAW
Daily Sports Writer
With 9:22 to go in the game
and momentum suddenly in
Wisconsin’s favor, the Michigan
hockey team knew it had a job
to do.
Junior forward Andrew Copp,
sophomore forward JT Compher
and senior defenseman Brennan
Serville took the ice for 1:03 of
5-on-3 hockey. After allowing
a goal just moments before, the
Badger fans in Joe Louis Arena
rose to their feet in anticipation.
“With five minutes to go, we
were knocking on the door with
a power play,” said Wisconsin
coach Mike Eaves. “Realistically
we’re hoping that we get a second
goal and make a go of it. They got
two late goals, and that was the
difference.”
Every
time
a
hint
of
momentum swung toward the
Badgers, the Wolverines were
quick to earn it back. Copp
won the faceoff in Michigan’s
zone and delivered the puck to
Compher, who skated the length
of the ice, fired a shot and quieted
the suddenly awake fans.
“I said, ‘We’re fine here. We’ve
got 10 (minutes left), up two.’ ”
Copp said. “We were pretty calm
and collected on the bench; not a
lot of freaking out there.”
Michigan was able to kill
the
penalty,
drawing
the
largest cheers of the night. In
the minutes that followed, the
Wolverines played their best
hockey of the night, securing two
late goals in the 5-1 win.
The penalty kill in the third
period was one of Michigan’s six
in the game — including four in
the tense third period — but what
came off of each kill proved to
be the most important. Despite
a sluggish start and an offense
that seemed out of sync for much
of the game, the Wolverines
were able to not only survive,
but thrive off the heels of their
penalty kill.
“We
were
aggressive,”
said freshman forward Dylan
Larkin. “Didn’t give them much
time to set up. Travis Lynch had
a breakaway, and there were
some chances, and we took away
their time and space, which was
good.”
The penalty kill was on fire
Thursday, but that hasn’t always
been the case for the Wolverines.
Even with the effort against
Wisconsin, Michigan is just 33rd
out of 59 teams in the penalty
kill, and — even with the nation’s
top-ranked offense — has shown
a tendency to kill momentum
with sloppy play throughout the
unit.
“I thought our guys were
dialed in tonight and did a
good job,” said Michigan coach
Red Berenson. “In fairness,
Wisconsin hasn’t had a lot of
momentum on their power play.
But we still had to kill it because
they had good puck control and
they had some good looks. So
that’s an important part of the
game.”
But the opposite was the case
in Thursday’s win. Whether it
was killing the 5-on-3 in the
third period to close out the
victory, rebounding from kills
with consecutive goals in the
opening minutes of the second
period, or even using an early
power-play
opportunity
for
Wisconsin as a catalyst to wake
up the sluggish offense in the
opening minute of the game,
it seemed that every time the
Wolverines had their backs
against the wall, they turned it
into a momentum shift.
“It’s huge, it’s a confidence
builder,” Berenson said of the
success. “It starts with your
goalie,
then
your
forward’s
willingness to get in the shooting
lane or sticks in the passing lanes,
blocking shots, winning faceoffs,
getting the puck out when you
get it.
“There’s a lot more to penalty
killing than just penalty killing.
There’s a lot of little things that
have to happen.”
