OKLAHOMA CITY (WXYZ) -
The Michigan Wolverines plan to roll out the maize and blue carpet for a pint-sized fan from Oklahoma City.
Cooper Barton, 5, made headlines when his elementary school forced him to turn his Michigan football t-shirt inside out last week because it violated the dress code.
Now, the university has responded by inviting cooper and his family to be guests of honor at the Big House.
Cooper can now wear that t-shirt with pride at the game on September 15.
