Carr to retire from Michigan athletic department

NCAA Football Betting Lines

07/13/2010 - Ann Arbor, MI (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Former Michigan head football coach and current associate athletic director Lloyd Carr will retire from the school's athletic department in September.

Carr will officially retire September 1, ending 30 years of service to the university.

"I am thankful for the wonderful opportunity to assist two great coaches here in Bo Schembechler and Gary Moeller and I will always appreciate Joe Roberson's decision to name me the head coach in 1995," said Carr. "I am also appreciative for those I worked with and for all the great friendships I have developed.

"Most of all, I am thankful for the young men I coached and for all the memories I have from my time at Michigan."

Carr spent 13 years as the Wolverines' head football coach, compiling an overall record of 122-40 with one national championship (1997) and five Big Ten titles. Only the legendary Schembechler and Fielding H. Yost won more games than Carr.

Carr joined Michigan in 1980 as defensive backs coach under Schembechler, serving in that role until 1986. He became defensive coordinator in 1987 and continued to hold that position when Schembechler was replaced by Gary Moeller in 1990. Carr then took over for Moeller in 1995 and retired from his coaching duties after the 2007 season.

Mens NCAA Basketball Tournament odds  
As of February 9, MySportsbook.com has released its coveted 2007 Mens NCAA Basketball Tournament betting odds. “March Madness betting ” only a month away, the top ranked Florida Gators are favorite at 7-2 to win it all. The defending champs have not disappointed at all this season and currently have a 22-2 record and are undefeated (9-0) in SEC play. The Gators’ thrive off of their extremely balanced, experienced and versatile attack. All five starters started in last seasons National Championship game. What is most impressive with this group is their balance; the five starters all average between 10.7 and 13.6 PPG. The Gators have been on an absolute roll having won 15 straight by an average of 16.4 PPG.

Right behind the Gators are the 5th ranked UNC Tar Heels at 9-2. The Heels (21-3, 7-2) are absolutely loaded with top notch talent and are as deep as any team in the country. A concern for the Tar Heels might be inexperience. Of their top four scorers/ minute earners, three are freshmen and the other is a sophomore. The rest of the regular season, the Tar Heels play only one team that is currently ranked (Duke). Their remaining opponents do combine for an impressive 107-58 record though.

Other teams that the MySportsbook.com members seem to believe will win it all include the west coasts’ top team #2 UCLA (6-1), #3 OSU behind man-child Greg Oden (8-1), and #4 Wisconsin (10-1) behind their defense which has given up 70+ points only three times all season.
