MIchael CoxMichigan running back Mike Cox can't show you his moves on the football field quite yet. But has he got moves? Well, yeah. You don't get a scholarship at Michigan if you can't move.

Of course, there's football moves and then there's moves, you know? Has Mike Cox got moves?

If only ... if only ... if only we had some sort of video that screams "shot in a college football player's apartment" showing Mike Cox and his dance moves.

Sometimes YouTube is better than Santa Claus, you know? Make the jump and see for yourself.



(Is he a good dancer? I'm a white guy from the Midwest who's pushing 40. How the heck should I know? I love the weightlifting bit at 1:46 in the video, though. It would be even more impressive if he was lifting something besides air, but clearly Michigan's strength program teaches proper technique.)

Clearly, Mike Cox needs to become a star, so he can go on Dancing With the Stars and we can all find out how good of a dancer he is. And when he gets there, he can always ask his old teammate, quarterback David Cone, to provide the music.

You know, just in case this whole football thing doesn't work out.
