ANN ARBOR, Mich. — Could Michigan football fans be in for a surprise on Saturday when they see the new-look starting offensive line? It’s beginning to feel that way. Three positions have long been set in left tackle Myles Hinton, left guard Josh Priebe, and right guard Giovanni El-Hadi. But while Greg Crippen was expected to win the center job and either Jeff Persi or Andrew Gentry were expected to win right guard, two new challengers have come forth with converted-defensive tackle-turned-center Dominick Giudice and right tackle Evan Link entering the fold. The hype surrounding both has been so huge that it would surprise no one if either wins the starting job.

Angry Aurorans and Denverites on social media poked fun at the news media Friday as more information came out about Venezuelan gangs on the Front Range. Aurora Mayor Mike Coffman posted on Facebook that the city will use court orders to shut down additional apartment complexes that have been infiltrated by the gangs. It seemed to contradict comments made by Gov. Jared Polis, who said the gang problem was a figment of Aurora council member Danielle Jurinsky’s imagination.

Don Hall is an avid snowmobiler, but instead of heading for the hills each winter in search of deep powder, he takes an older snowmachine to lower elevations nearer the snow line. There’s a reason the Riverton resident prefers the lower zones despite the rocks, fences and sage most riders avoid: That’s where the coyotes are.

Wyoming allows snowmobilers to run down wildlife. Despite global outrage, it may stay legal.

A developing tropical disturbance in the Caribbean is showing increasing potential to enter the eastern Gulf of Mexico, intensify, and impact areas along the Gulf Coast, likely between Florida and Louisiana. If the system gains a name, it will be designated Tropical Storm Debby. This system has the potential to bring significant rainfall to the eastern Gulf Coast, and depending on its strength, could also generate hazardous winds and a dangerous storm surge.
