d Ali Summit in 1967, when a handful of the countrys most influential African-American athletes gathered in Cleveland to discuss Antworten

ANN ARBOR, Mich. -- Jim Harbaugh rarely, if ever, says someone is like him.DJ Durkin is an exception.Does things at a very high level with a lot of enthusiasm, Harbaugh said when asked about Durkin. Kindred spirit.Harbaugh hired Durkin to be his first defensive coordinator last year at Michigan, reuniting with one of the key members from his staff at Stanford.Which coach, Harbaugh or Durkin, is more intense?I dont think I can choose, Michigan running back Karan Higdon said. Theyre both masterminds of their domain.Durkin helped the Wolverines have success last season, helping him earn an opportunity to lead the Terrapins. Hes making the most of it. Maryland won its first four games, surpassing last years victory total of three, and is a win away from being bowl-eligible and making Harbaugh even more proud.I follow all the coaches that we worked with and pull for them when theyre not playing us, Harbaugh said.Facing players Durkin knows well might give him a slight edge.Anytime youre familiar with the roster, you dont spend as much time breaking down each player, he said. It certainly helps when theres familiarity. Players play games, not coaches.Here are some things to watch when No. 2 Michigan (8-0, 5-0 Big Ten) hosts Maryland (5-3, 2-3) on Saturday:SPEIGHTS STATS: Wilton Speight didnt have a touchdown pass for the first time this season and threw just an interception for just the third time in last weeks win at Michigan State. Harbaugh, looking beyond the box score, came away impressed with Speights latest performance.You could make an argument that this was his best game, Harbaugh said.Speight has completed 63 percent of his passes with 13 TDs and three interceptions. Harbaugh hailed Speights grasp of the offense, saying he asks the quarterback which plays he likes best before and during games. Speights teammates praise his poise in the huddle and pocket.Hes calm, cool and collected, Higdon said. He doesnt get too high, or too low.SACK PREVENTION: Maryland gave up four sacks last week, and now must contend with Michigans defense that leads the Big Ten and ranks among the nations best with 3.4 sacks per game.Their defensive front is probably the best in the country, Durkin said. Its a big test for our guys.DAZZLING DARBOH: Amara Darboh as emerged as Michigans top receiver, moving ahead of Jehu Chesson with a team-high five TD receptions. Darboh had eight receptions for a career-high 165 yards receiving in last weeks win at Michigan State. He has a team-high 38 receptions, almost doubling Chessons total, for a team-high 664 yards receiving to lead Butt and Chesson by 200-plus yards.NO CUPCAKES HERE: After missing out on an opportunity to become bowl-eligible at Indiana, the Terrapins start the toughest stretch of their schedule with a trio of games against ranked teams. After playing at the Big House, Maryland hosts Ohio State and then plays at Nebraska.Barring an upset, the Terrapins will have to beat Rutgers at home to end the regular season with a .500 record.We know we have a big task ahead of us, Durkin said. Weve got to find a way to get a win on the road in our conference.LOOK WHAT BROWN CAN DO: When Durkin left for Maryland, Harbaugh searched all over the country to find someone to replace him and was thrilled to lure Don Brown away from Boston College to lead Michigans defense. Brown seems to be getting the most out of the talent on the roster, helping the defense lead the nation in a handful of categories without blitzing as much as he has in the past.Theyre probably doing less on defense than coach Brown is known for, but theyre doing it at a very high level, Terrapins offensive coordinator Walt Bell said.---AP college football website: collegefootball.ap.org Jose Quintana Jersey . World champions Tatiana Volosozhar and Maxim Trankov of Russia won the gold medal with 237.71 points, Moore-Towers and Moscovitch followed at 208.45 and Ksenia Stolbova and Fedor Klimov of Russia were third at 187. Mike Montgomery Jersey . -- Claudio Bieler hadnt scored since early September, and not from the run of play since mid-July. http://www.thecubsteamshop.com/Cubs-Jason-Heyward-Kids-Jersey/ . Marincin has played in two NHL games so far this season with two penalty minutes. The 21-year-old has three goals, four assists and a plus-5 rating in 24 games with the American Hockey Leagues Oklahoma City Barons this season. Kris Bryant Jersey . After a first half in which he thought "the lid was on the basket," the Toronto Raptors coach watched his squad mount a second half surge to defeat the Cleveland Cavaliers 98-91. Ron Santo Jersey . The native of Mont-Tremblant, Que., captured a World Cup downhill event Saturday, his second this year and fifth career victory on the circuit. The ESPYS, a longtime stage to celebrate athletes achievement and perseverance, became a platform for athlete activism this week thanks to four of the most prominent players in the NBA.Spurred by recent violent events in America and Carmelo Anthonys social media response to them -- evoking an image from the famed Muhammad Ali Summit in 1967, when a handful of the countrys most influential African-American athletes gathered in Cleveland to discuss the issues plaguing the nation and minorities in particular -- the group that refers to itself as The Brotherhood chose to deliver a message.LeBron James, Anthony, Dwyane Wade and Chris Paul were looking for a way to further Anthonys Instagram message calling on athletes to use their platforms to call for social change.The friends talked on group text and decided to deliver a speech at the ESPYS calling on athletes to do more to enact social change in the wake of high-profile shootings in Dallas, Orlando, St. Paul and Baton Rouge.This was their idea, and their powerful words ... the show ensured their voices had maximum impact, said Connor Schell, the executive producer of the ESPYS.On Monday, two days before the broadcast, a representative for James reached out to ESPN about the possibility of becoming a part of the show.The purpose, according to a source familiar with James thinking, was to highlight the history of professional sports having a tradition of activism and establishing that duty of consciousness with all of the high-profile athletes in attendance.At this time, they felt it was important to highlight that, the source told ESPN. It was a call to action to honor and embrace that tradition.Anthony, James, Wade and Paul coordinated a cold open for the telecast, standing together onstage at the Microsoft Theater in Los Angeles to deliver a group speech that urged fellow athletes to use their influence to call for an end to violence.The system is broken, the problems are not new, the violence is not new, and the racial divide definitely is not new, but the urgency for change is definitely at an all-time high, said Anthony, the New York Knicks star who has been outspoken in the wake of the high-profile shooting deaths last week of two African-American men and five Dallas police officers.Addded Wade, who recently agreed to a deal with his hometown Bulls in Chicago, where violence has surged in recent years: The racial profiling has to stop.ddddddddddddThe shoot-to-kill mentality has to stop. Not seeing the value of black and brown bodies has to stop. But also the retaliation has to stop. The endless gun violence in places like Chicago, Dallas, not to mention Orlando, it has to stop. Enough. Enough is enough.Paul said he and his fellow stars were influenced by the athletes who stood for social causes in the past.Generations ago, legends like Jesse Owens, Jackie Robinson, Muhammad Ali, John Carlos and Tommie Smith, Kareem Abdul-Jabbar, Jim Brown, Billie Jean King, Arthur Ashe and countless others, they set a model for what athletes should stand for, Paul said. So we choose to follow in their footsteps.James continued his message of being proactive with social change, rather than simply being reactionary when a tragedy occurs.Lets use this moment as a call to action for all professional athletes to educate ourselves, explore these issues, speak up, use our influence and renounce all violence, James said. And most importantly, go back to our communities, invest our time, our resources, help rebuild them, help strengthen them, help change them. We all have to do better.All four players said that they would continue to fight after their ESPYS speech.For LeBron, it really is about continuing to act on and expand on a lot of what hes been working on, said the source. Whether its being vocal about issues or focusing on his foundation or what hes done in Akron [Ohio], his mission is to take what hes done, expand upon it and keep growing.The LeBron James Family Foundation teamed with the University of Akron last summer to pledge 2,300 four-year college scholarships, at a cost of more than $80 million, to students who enroll in and complete an education program.James has been consistently outspoken regarding social issues in the last several years, whether his words were prompted by gun violence, rioting in response to police brutality or racist comments by former Los Angeles Clippers owner Donald Sterling.
