"Jeter told Steinbrenner that he had to take off his Ohio State ring now, but The Boss just pointed at him and said "Michigan." Steinbrenner did his post-graduate work at Ohio State and was an assistant on their 1954 National Championship team. Jeter grew up in Kalamazoo and considered going to the University of Michigan before the Yankees drafted him in 1992. The two Big 10 schools have a long-standing football rivalry."
