ANN ARBOR, Mich. -- Wayne Lyons takes aim at lofty goals both on and off the football field.

Lyons, a graduate student transfer from Stanford, will play cornerback and wants to help get Michigan to the Rose Bowl he played in for the Cardinal.

His big-picture dream involves taking the degree in architectural design he'll earn from Stanford and combining it with the School of Social Work post-graduate degree he's pursuing at Michigan to create a special community.

"I want to someday build a community that has high-end technology and provides high-end resources," said Lyons.
