Pitt is a possible destination

lol ok
August 24th, 2018 at 8:55 PM ^
CRAP
August 24th, 2018 at 8:56 PM ^
You bought a jersey too, huh?
August 24th, 2018 at 10:13 PM ^
I bought 4 :/ For myself and my 3 sons. Maybe you can guess their names.
August 24th, 2018 at 11:03 PM ^
Steve?
August 25th, 2018 at 12:22 AM ^
Are you George Foreman???
August 25th, 2018 at 8:54 AM ^
You named all your sons after you, Jeff?

Jeff, George, and Junior?
August 24th, 2018 at 8:56 PM ^
He was here?
August 25th, 2018 at 7:55 AM ^
That was my reaction.
August 25th, 2018 at 8:28 AM ^
As I see this story around sports news websites, they say Michigan QB is transferring but he's wearing an Illinois uniform. Can he truly be considered a Michigan QB if there is no picture of him in a Wolverine uniform?!
August 24th, 2018 at 8:56 PM ^
Huh? Apparently he's off to Pitt... why not just transfer there directly instead of taking the detour?
August 24th, 2018 at 9:12 PM ^
He wanted all that sweet Jordan swag.
August 24th, 2018 at 9:13 PM ^
He wanted all that sweet Jordan swag.
August 24th, 2018 at 11:47 PM ^
It fetches a good price, or so I've heard.
August 25th, 2018 at 10:55 AM ^
Probably realized after the summer that he not only had no chance to play but also wasn't going to get any reps, as I'm sure Michigan is more focused on developing their younger guys. But, yeah, it doesn't take a rocket scientist to look at our QB depth chart and move on to another option in the first place.
August 24th, 2018 at 8:57 PM ^
What an odd, odd transfer to begin with. Never had a prayer of seeing the field and won’t officially even be recorded as playing here.
August 24th, 2018 at 11:48 PM ^
At least give him a footnote in the SuperGuide
August 25th, 2018 at 3:07 AM ^
All he only wanted was a free sandwich from Zingerman's.
Can't say I blame him.
August 25th, 2018 at 10:36 AM ^
Mmmmm.
August 25th, 2018 at 12:43 PM ^
Dude, mouth is watering.
August 25th, 2018 at 1:25 PM ^
That's the exact sandwich I always get. I need a sweat nap
August 24th, 2018 at 8:57 PM ^
You can have layovers in your transfer journey? Call me intrigued...
August 25th, 2018 at 7:25 AM ^
Hi Intrigued.
August 24th, 2018 at 8:59 PM ^
You know he'll still put "student at University of Michigan" on his resume, right??
August 24th, 2018 at 9:06 PM ^
I'd be disappointed if he didn't
August 24th, 2018 at 9:19 PM ^
If you were young professional and you worked at Google for 45 minutes before deciding to take another job, you'd still put "Customer Experience Manager, Google, August 2018-August 2018," wouldn't you? :-D
August 24th, 2018 at 9:28 PM ^
It would look better if you just leave it at "Customer Experience Manager, Google, 2018".
August 25th, 2018 at 12:24 PM ^
"Customer Experience Manager, Google, Aug 25, 2018, 9:00-9:45 AM EDT."
August 24th, 2018 at 9:00 PM ^
If he was here, he probably saw the competition and shook his head and said "Nah, can't do it."
August 24th, 2018 at 11:50 PM ^
Or he took one look at the OL and said, aw shit, I might actually have to play!
August 25th, 2018 at 12:28 AM ^
Too soon.
August 24th, 2018 at 9:02 PM ^
Jeff, we hardly knew ye.
August 24th, 2018 at 9:02 PM ^
Isn’t he out of eligibility? What’re the rules of a grad transfer transferring again?
Either way, thanks for prepping our practice squad I guess.
August 25th, 2018 at 7:53 AM ^
It’s Jeff George Junior.
/s
August 24th, 2018 at 9:06 PM ^
Do we get an exit post on the front page?
August 24th, 2018 at 9:09 PM ^
We made a clerical error and enrolled George Jeff, Jr instead
August 24th, 2018 at 9:14 PM ^
Well, we’re f***ed.
August 24th, 2018 at 9:16 PM ^
I guess he had the crazy thought that he had a legitimate chance of playing at Michigan, then came to his senses?
August 24th, 2018 at 10:47 PM ^
I think Boy George had a better shot of getting snaps in at QB.
August 25th, 2018 at 7:21 AM ^
Now why drag him (her?) into this? Do you really want to hurt him (her)?
August 24th, 2018 at 9:17 PM ^
Thanks.
August 24th, 2018 at 9:28 PM ^
So...<adjusts tinfoil hat> anyone else thinking he was planted at Michigan to spy/gather info on the new offense? Supposedly heading to Pitt, coached by Narduzzi, formerly Dantonio’s DC. Think the Michigan playbook ends up in EL soon?
August 25th, 2018 at 1:02 AM ^
We will beat them even if we mail the playbook the week of the game. It is happening.
August 24th, 2018 at 9:34 PM ^
I bet he was cut. If Harbaugh thought there was another walk on that would be more helpful to the team than him in the top 110, then he probably got shown the door. I doubt if he was not aware of that possibility when he came here.
August 24th, 2018 at 11:26 PM ^
In that situation, is your scholarship still honored? I imagine it is.
August 24th, 2018 at 11:47 PM ^
He would need to be on scholarship first to have his scholarship honored.
August 25th, 2018 at 8:24 AM ^
He was a walk-on so no scholarship to be honored.
