Nick Hardwick (former Charger great who played at Purdue) on the radio brought up that in each NFL locker room he was in, guys from certain schools had a certain vibe..
OHIO STATE - arrogant and confident, expected everything to be done for them, did not even like to touch/pack their own gear.. they were used to a support system that was a downgrade in the NFL
MICHIGAN - aloof, stuck up guys.. Nick noted that the UM tailgate was all wine n cheese, the alums were white collar thru and thru, and this spilled over to the players
NOTRE DAME - Nick said they were smart but always geeky/nerdy.. said you have to be smart to go there.. I would add this makes sense as they are bit behind the times socially.. I don't think they have co-ed dorms and packs of chicks going to class wearing form fitting wife beaters, ugh's, and pajama bottoms
my thoughts..
MIAMI guys.. you smell gun lubrication powder on them when the walk by
MICHIGAN STATE - they wear orange when they are not on the football field..
MARYLAND - these guys care way more about seafood reservations than football
PITT - they assault linking verbs like MSU guys assault fellow students
OREGON - dudes are always wining that team facilities suck
BAMA - they show up from college on crutches with a book full of xrays
MICHIGAN - they are all sporting milk mustaches
NOTRE DAME - clean uniform guys, they gave up on tackling 14 years ago
