Lloyd Carr after the MSU & UM game

After the game with the a reporter stepped onto the football field and asked Lloyd Carr, the head coach for Michigan about the pass play in the final few minutes that almost lost them the game. He said, "who made the decision to call that play that almost ended in a disaster for your team?"

In his answer he could have blamed the offensive coach for his choice of the play. He could have said it was the quarterbacks call. He did neither. Lloyd Carr hesitated for the briefest instant and said, "I’m responsible". That’s leadership and that’s integrity.

Here is a man who has determinied who he is and how he will live.
