Just tweeted this morning:
"Keep remembering Brady Hoke at Michigan as the Hoke family mourns the loss of Brady's father. Brady started in coaching with Jack Harbaugh."
In case you're not familiar, Crean is married into the Harbaugh family. He married Jim and John's sister Joani.
(Imagine that freaking Thanksgiving....)

Just read that Brady will be burying his father today in Dayton, OH.
Thoughts and prayers for Brady and the entire Hoke family today.

During the Kentucky/Indiana tournament game last week, the camera showed a close up of Jim Harbaugh in the crowd wearing a Hoosiers shirt. I had to do a double take before I realized it was him. That was the first I ever heard of Crean being married to his sister.

A la WH, I, too was unaware of any marital ties coach Crean had to America's coaching family (pretty accurate description of the Harbaughs, no?)
But, to me, T.C. always HAS come across as a decent person...as Admin hinted.
