   Nov 10, 2021 · We are the Leaders and the Best. We are Wolverines. But those are just names — when a person thinks of the University, they think of the maize block M.

   Sep 16, 2005 · The most popular origin of the nickname comes from the 1835 Toledo War between Michigan and Ohio. Since a wolverine has a reputation of being ornery, Ohioans called Michiganians “wolverines” as the two sides struggled over who owned the disputed Toledo Strip. Years later, the University of Michigan adopted the wolverine as its school mascot.

   The first Wolverine “mascot” was a taxidermied wolverine. It was obtained by Fielding H. Yost in 1923 and named “Biff.” Yost wanted a real Wolverine, like what Wisconsin had with the live Badger at football games. It wasn’t until 1927 that Yost was able to procure live wolverines from the Detroit Zoo. The pair was named “Biff” and “Bennie.” They we...

   In 1948, artist Arthur Evans designed the logo we now know as “Wolverbear.” Bennie Oosterbaan was starting his first season as head football coach this very same year. Seeing the new logo as inspiration, Oosterbaan channeled his inner Yost and decided it was time for Michigan to have a mascot again. Oosterbaan brought the idea to Fritz Crisler, who...

   In the 1980s, a group of industrious Michigan students decided it was time to replace Murderwolf with something more modern. Several of Michigan’s Big Ten rivals had well-designed mascots by this time. Murderwolf still looked very much like a relic from days past (which was precisely why a lot of Michigan fans loved him). They came up with a new ma...

   In 1998, after a National Championship and several years without a mascot, athletic director Tom Goss decided to make his mark on the university. He hired a graphic designer to mock up a brand new, modern take on the fan-favorite Murderwolf. He sent the design out and ordered the mascot to the tune of $8,549-a far cry from the $10 it took to make t...

   Did Michigan have a mascot?

   • The wolverines were a gift of two Detroit-based alums, Fred Lawton and Clark Hyatt, both of the Class of 1911. “Up until today,” the article continued, “Michigan teams have had a mascot, and that mascot was a wolverine, a mounted one that has graced the trophy case in the administration building at Ferry Field for some time.”

   Why is U-M A Wolverine mascot?

   • It has been nearly a century since the University embraced the wolverine as its mascot. In 1923, U-M football coach Fielding Yost was inspired by a University of Wisconsin tradition of players carrying along live badgers when the team entered the stadium. But unlike the Wisconsin badgers, wolverines are not native to the state of Michigan.

    Jun 16, 2011 · Michigan’s first attempt at a live mascot was carried off by no less a tradition-builder than Fielding Yost himself, longtime head football coach (1901-23, 1925-26) and athletic director (1921-41), first at the Michigan Stadium Dedication Game against Ohio State (Oct. 22, 1927) and again when Michigan played Navy that season.
