Bo Schembechler Statue





A statue of Bo Schembechler sits outside of Schembechler Hall, in Ann Arbor.  











     There is a bronze statue of Bo Schembechler that sits just outside of Schembechler Hall, in Ann Arbor.  I've attempted to photograph the statue before, but it's usually either dark, or surrounded by people.  The statue was created by J. Brett Grill in 2013, and was unveiled in April of 2014 as part of a renovation project at Schembechler Hall.  The statue was a gift of Robert W. Browne.
