Michigan head coach Brady Hoke recently bought 50 ChuckStrong T-shirts that he and his coaching staff will wear to Saturday's game against Illinois. The Indianapolis Colts created the shirts last week to raise money for charity in support of their first-year head coach Chuck Pagano, who is on leave while he battles leukemia.
[Editor's note: The first version of this story indicated Hoke and staff would wear the shirt during the game. That is not the case.]
Brady Hoke ordered 50 #chuckstrong shirts and he and his staff will wear them to Saturdays game vs Illinois. #colts. Very nice Brady!

The Colts made $90,000 in sales during Sunday's home game, and all of it went to Indiana University Simon Cancer Center.
