About Us

Pete, Tom and Rob with a few younger club members. Are those rabbit ears? Awe, man! Jeff and Erin hanging out on court. Yes, Erin endorses the sentiments expressed on the plate! Honorary club member Tim McCormick poses with his shirt. We're sure he treasures it!

 

Club Organizers: who we are and why we are doing this.

Rob Thomas
Current club president Rob Thomas is a middle-aged bloke who, while not having an athletic bone in his body, loves Michigan athletics and will do everything he can to cheer the team on. Rob does all the behind-the-scenes work in terms of working with the athletic department to set up the package and plan for the pizza party, maintain the website and manage the member list. Rob got a BA from LSA in 1991 and an MBA from the Business School in 2000. He loved university life so much that he became an employee and now works around the corner from the Athletic Department as an IT planning manager.

Andrew Price
A Brummy hailing from the original Birmingham (the one in England), Andrew Price immigrated to the states in 1981 and immediately became passionate about Michigan athletics, especially football and basketball. Having been a season ticket holder for over twenty years and marrying Jennifer, his proud Michigan Alumna, he became entrenched in the spirit of Michigan and what Michigan stands for. Over the past four years Andrew has been instrumental in welcoming, motivating and teaching the cheers to the dedicated fans that have taken on the responsibility of filling in for the Maize Rage during the student break games. Andrew is currently Vice President of Sales and Client Services for the Polk company.
