    I wish him well.

          If my math is correct, Mel Pearson has spent 22 years at Michigan and 12 years at Michigan Tech. I can definitely understand if he considers Michigan home.

            4 as player (1977 to 1981)
            6 as assistant coach (1982 to 1988)
            6 as head coach (2011 to 2017)

            But the point still stands 22 > 16.
            MTU Hockey fan since I was carried to a game in 1986 - for those counting... that's a lot of depressing hockey. Still love it.

              Anybody know what he did in the year between graduating and becoming an assistant coach?

                    According to the City of Saline's Tax and Assessing Software, at www.cityofsaline.org, Mel & Susan Pearson sold their house at 349 Saline River for $230K on 8/5/2011. It's a modest 1982 sq ft, two story colonial. And according to www.ewashtenaw.org, Mel doesn't own any other property in Washtenaw County.

                    They should have kept it and rented it out since rental income is offset by depreciation, making it tax free.

                    Mel should be able to afford a bigger house now . There are some HUGE properties, befitting a head coach, out in South Lyon. Or he should buy the Addams Family house in Saline...

                          You know, I really don't care that you're not a Tech-fan. I am however frustrated with all of the illegitimate Tech-fans who are no where to be found though...

                          You'd think that they would be used to being WRONG!!!!!!
