Was at that game at the top of the opposite corner. Was hot as fuck that day. That replay starts off with the most important play of that drive, Tyrone Butterfield dropping a pass that was short of the first down, in the middle of the field, and UofM had no time outs left. He catches that and the game is over.

that game was played august 26th, so can imagine how hot it was. was some sort of pigskin classic or some shit they had back then.
i remember thinking "thank fucking jeebus" when he dropped that ball. found an article with his explanation of the play:
Q: (Question paraphrased) One last thing, that second-to-last play in the Michigan-Virginia game in 1995, what was going through your mind on that play?
TB: "What I was actually thinking was it was set up to be a corner route to go to Mercury (Hayes) from the beginning on that play. It might have been Amani (Toomer) on that side, originally. ... We were trying to get him matched him up on the other side away from Ronde Barber. The corner on that side, we were trying to get away from him. I was just supposed to run a wheel route and just hold the safety right there. It was a one-on-one route on the outside. When I ran my route, I actually kind of ran it a little bit lazy, so the safety would cover me up. So I it would be a one-on-one. I just looked and saw the ball coming.
"The natural first reaction is to try and catch the ball. As I’m thinking, which it happens at the same time, knock it down. I did neither one. It popped up, and so it was like ‘Oh, man, thank God that guy didn’t catch the ball’ because in that split-second I had the natural reaction to put your hands up and catch the ball and then knock it down. The guy didn’t catch it, so it gave us another shot."

Holy shit. In that pic, it looks like that ball will sail 5 feet over his head. I hadn't seen this before.

RACK Mercury Hayes...solid receiver with an even better name. One of the all-time great names in Michigan football and there were some great ones. Sam Sword is still my all-time favorite Michigan name.
I'll give another #9 some love...the QB of Michigan at the time I started to follow the Wolverines as a young lad, Michael Taylor

My favorite UofM player to wear #9, partly because he was cool as shit and I helped him pass his high school chemestry class.
Also, UofM has had some great names. Rob Sweat, Glenn Steele, Jarret Irons, etc.

I'll hand it to you Domers, you've got arguably the greatest name of them all with Michael Stonebreaker...that one is going to be hard to beat.
