Harbaugh: Two players have left
Harbaugh said today Michigan is under its 85 scholarship limit. Asked if anyone has left. He said two have but ‘I’ll let them announce that if they want to.’

Harbaugh says he hasn’t named an OC yet. Hasn’t decided if he will or won’t. Staff will go through more self scout this week and next.

6 to 46?
Kareem Walker was the first name I thought of when I saw the OP.
Sure doesn't look like Kareem if you look at his twitter.
But the players in question (Crawford and Walker) already had the number (1 & 6) and switched to one that no one had (41 & 46).
"We are a little below the scholarship limit." TFIW.
Google search comes up The Future Is Wild...???
Who the writer here was, that said a few months ago, that Jim McElwain is going to be designing the offense each week for games. And that design is going to be used to call plays from.
I tried to do a search on Jim McElwain from the site search window. But it returned nothing.
Anyone remember?
Calvin? Why do you keep calling me Calvin? My name's Marty.
I remember reading this too. Since then didn't Jim M say this is Pep's offense and Pep say this is Harbaugh's offense?
hot potato
there was something like that said.
"Harbaugh says he hasn’t named an OC yet. Hasn’t decided if he will or won’t. Staff will go through more self scout this week and next."
Part of me thinks Harbaugh is constantly being strategic and doesn't want the outside world to know what coach does what for competitive advantage.
The other part of me thinks oh shit this sounds dysfunctional like last season's offense.
Remember last year after the Purdue game when he said Wilton Speight had a "soft tissue thing.... he's dealing with some things", but in reality he had 4 broken vertebrea?
So I'll prefer to think it's one of his diversionary tactics, and not dysfunction.
But I will say too, it's a stretch for me to believe he has someone who as great with offensive coordinating as Jim McElwain, and will not have him prefered over Pep Hamilton, who doesn't have a track record nearly as good as Jim McElwain--regardless of what Jim Harbaugh lets on to the public is going on.
I hear Minnesota is looking for a QB.
Coach Harbaugh limit him from transfering to a BIG 10 school, or someone on the schedule the next 2 years?
Beilein gave up blocking Biefeldt and Albrect from Big Ten schools. It's not yet a rule, but coaches trying to limit grad transfers have gotten a lot of bad press.
So IF Brandon Peters is one of the 3
And IF he does early graduation
And IF Jim Harbaugh doesn't limit where he can go
Then Brandon Peters could, if he chose, be playing at Wisconsin.
It seems to me he is a perfect match with Paul Chryst. And as a Michigan fan, I don't like that.
But I'll wait and see who the 3 are. umbig11 said the news is out soon.
it is Brandon Peters, I would hope he is limited from going to Wisconsin. I would NOT want to see him there. It seems he would fit in perfectly with Paul Chryst after Hornibrook is gone.
5 months, I understand why you'd say Peters.
I think he would stay one more year. But if I was his dad I'd want him to save a year of eligibility to be used some where else where he will play full time. And so leave now.
at Michigan he loses another year.
if he transfers
if he stays and graduates (he was an early enrollee), he can grad transfer with 2 years left
why he loses a year if he transfers.
First of all, no reason for the backup QB to transfer when you are a RS Soph. You are always one play from being the starter. Second, he can't transfer today and play right away. He would have to sit a year. He is not a grad transfer. Patterson was able to be granted immediate eligibility for obvious reasons that don't exist for Peters.
I'd be shocked if Milton passed him this year. I think he has a lot of work to do before he sees the field.
Ok you're right. I'm sure a true freshman who is known to be very raw, who completed less than 48% of his passes his Sr. year in high school is ready to be the backup QB for the University of Michigan. In addition to all of the reports that continue to speak on his amazing physical skills yet speak to how raw he still is. Pardon me for giving MY opinion on a message board.
of mighty trolls; Behold the Mineral King. The Shea fan so adament, that he is willing to make up baselsess nonesense for what, I persume, is his own amusement. Anything other than a shea led 3 years of UM domination is not think-able. Only Shea is worthy of QBing so says the might toll: Mineral King!
until summer camp. There is no guarantee that Shea will win the starting job, though I think he will be the favorite. The real battle will be between Peters and Dylan for the backup role. I doubt Peters will quit the team before the summer season. If he is the 3rd or 4th string after summer camp he will likely transfer after he graduates.
Joe Milton had a game as a senior, against a team called Winter Park, where he had a 000.8 QB rating. That's not a typo. He had less than a 1 QB rating.
Two of Milton's receivers last year were 3* prospects that ended up signing with FBS teams.
Milton didn't have amazing HS receivers - but he wasn't throwing to complete scrubs either.
