I'm not a fan or football of the University of Michigan, but what their current athletic director has done is just ridiculous

During the more than 20 years I've lived in the Ann Arbor area, I've always made a point of avoiding the area near the stadium on football Saturdays in the fall so I don't get stuck in traffic. Thanks to John Brandon, that might not be so much of a problem going forward.

Brandon's incredibly tone-deaf policy changes have all been about money, not maximizing the experience for students and fans. This quote really sums up how utterly ignorant Brandon is: 

“You’re a 17 to 18-year-old kid watching the largest crowd in the history of college football with airplanes flying over and Beyonce introducing your halftime show? That’s a pretty powerful message about what Michigan is all about, and that’s our job to send that message.”

Yes, it's a powerful message and Brandon has sent it loud and clear. But it's also absolutely the wrong message to be sending. Students have been told they don't matter to U-M and they are now staying away from games in droves. 

I highly recommend that anyone that is a college football fan read this and consider not spending money on football tickets and merchandise.?
