Funny, but useless. When the stadium floor was lowered to increase the sightlines for the lower rows, grass, although tried, is not practical. UM stadium has an underground spring that runs underneath it. The floor is now too close (remember all the clumps of sod flying up during the mid-late 90's and the constant slipping even on sunny days) to the surface. We had the best, even got top guys from rival MSU which is a big Ag School still, and they couldn't make it work either. So it is all artificial from here on out.

Ok than plane you are seeing is not UM's, but owned by a private individual. Still not difinitive, but less threatening.
I wouldn't necessarily say it's "less threatening."
I'm sure there are plenty big Michigan boosters who own Lears who would chauffeur Brandon and/or his staff to BTR.
I just don't think they'd do it in a marked jet.
They'd take a commercial flight, probably under an assumed name.

"Read the article. He regularly lets UM people use it."
Every indication is Brandon is here in AA today. Supposed to be talking with the search firm, not travelling.

Michigan's plane in the youtube video is identical to that of the one in the first page of this thread FWIW
at least it looks like it to me
Posted on 1/7/11 at 11:03 am to loopy
But still, why would that plane have gone out of its way to be in Baton Rouge?

Because it is the same plane. Same tail number.
Posted on 1/7/11 at 11:05 am to loopy
someone either got off the plane and checked in to a hotel as mention or...
there are several planes daily from BR to DFW and back again. might have hopped one there.

There are businesses in BR, its not all about LSU. That being said, it's a very strange coincidence at least but seems a bit overt to me given we haven't finished the season.

I dont think he is saying they arent the same plane. He is saying that plane just doesnt belong to the University of Michigan. That pic in the first post isnt from BTR airport this morning or anything.

How about Dallas Executive Airport? That looks like a field for private jets.

but it is the same plane. look at the tail number. the one in the video, the picture and the one in br this morning all had the same tail number.

With the strange track on this flight, is it possible either
A) Michigan rents it out when not in use
Or
B) Owned by some booster/fan with no connection to the coaching search

I think he is saying that that plane is owned by a booster and not officially by the university. The one in the youtube pic is the same one that is here.
