Of course, Brady’s accomplishments in the NFL have made him far more of a legend than his college career did. In spite of that, he’s always remained true to the Wolverines since his stock skyrocketed as a surefire Pro Football Hall of Famer.

Undoubtedly, the Wolverines are riding high after this emotional victory. Having a message from a Michigan legend and arguably the best quarterback of all time only adds to the fun.
