Ric Flair Committed To Michigan For Signing Day
By Ty Duffy
The Michigan Wolverines are partnering with the Players Tribune for a “Signing of the Stars” live stream event on Signing Day. It’s not clear what’s happening, or why it must be live streamed. It describes itself as “innovative,” which is never encouraging. But, celebrities will be congregating, including wrestling legend Ric Flair.

Harbaugh is a noted Rick Flair fan and was pro-Wrestlemania at the Big House.
The guest list, thus far, also includes pitcher Derek Holland (a big Michigan fan), Lou Holtz (once coached a rival school), Mike Shanahan (happy to get his name out there), Josh Gracin (who? from Michigan), and Jessica Szohr (no idea). No Jetes on the list, yet.
