... that John Garrels (pictured) of the 1906 Michigan football team threw the school's first legal forward pass, won Olympic medals in the hurdles and shot put, and set a world record in the discus throw?

Length is good, expansion is good, hook is fine, but there is only sources for part of the hook fact in the article ... ".... won two medals in the 1908 Summer Olympics – a silver medal in the 110 meter hurdles and a bronze medal in the shot put." is not in the newspaper article here which is being used as a source for the information. Image checks out. Article is fine otherwise. Ealdgyth - Talk 13:36, 3 April 2012 (UTC)

I've added direct in-line sourcing for the Olympic medals and the world record in the discus throw. Cbl62 (talk) 05:13, 4 April 2012 (UTC)

Looks good with citation addition. Ealdgyth - Talk 12:49, 4 April 2012 (UTC)
