Tributes To Bump Elliott
On of the classiest and finest men I’ve had the pleasure to know…the great Bump Elliott passed away this morning. He recruited me to Michigan, I owe him so much. RIP Bump. Here’s a pic from Iowa 3 years ago with Bump, Dan Dierdorf, me and with Jon Jansen pic.twitter.com/aZGu4AkDfw

A resume of playing, coaching and leading at the college level like we might not ever see again.
Lucky to have known him.
Sad that he’s gone.
