What does "The second player in doubt along the OL has been extremely quiet." mean? Is it that he wasn't expected to play, a benchwarmer? Or does it mean that the player is keeping his mouth shut about leaving the team?

every othet student at Michigan would.

If he has been in CA for an extended amount of time, wouldn't you think the coaches would have looked at bringing a TE in this class?

going into last season, Asiasi was my second favorite get in last year's haul, and although I didn't see his career make the dramatic jump that I see Gary's making in one season, I expected steady improvement throughout. Regardless of whether we are stocked at that position or not, I just hope the reason he is pulled back home finds a rapid resolution that is favorable. If it doesn't work out for him to be able to continue his career at UM, I hope whatever the pressing issue is works out as well as possible for the young man.
Although wishing that he remain with the UM sqaud is not selfish; its just natural for any fan to wish for the same. At the same time, I think to a person, we all hold his best interests to be of paramount importance.
There is so much talk by our players of the family like atmosphere that exists here; in fact, it's probably the chief reason that many of them opt for M in recruiting battles that came down to the wire. With that said, and realizing it is a real thing, i have no doubt, JH and staff, will do all they can to assist the young man during this period, as well as making all possible effort to seeing that he finish his career here. If such is not to be, even though losing a special talent hurts from a fan standpoint, as so many others have correctly pointed out, being a football fan takes second place to so many other things in life.

The Welfare of the athlete and what's best for he and his family should be the priority. It appears that Asiasi really enjoys UM but if there are factors that warrent his return to Cali then the staff, UM, teammates and fans should support him all the way. Good luck to him in making his decision and going forward regardless if it's at UM or in Cali somewhere.

We are sending a lot of prayers to Asiasi and his family without knowing what we are praying for. I hope everythig is okay and he can still play this fall.

Wow, man this sucks. I hope everything is ok! Sending prayers up.

could the offensive linemen be Newsome because of the injury ?
February 4th, 2017 at 7:17 PM ^
That sucks. Hope his family is okay.
February 4th, 2017 at 8:05 PM ^
For those looking for something more official. Good luck to the kid. More 4 receiver sets are incoming...
On that note, was there any thought that Michigan's change of coordinators and offensive philosophy helped push him in this direction? Not doubting the family issues but wondering if multiple factors played into it.

Hope he gets everything squared away at home.
I think we'll miss his roadgrading more than pass catching.
February 4th, 2017 at 8:55 PM ^
Sounds more like home sickness than anything. Glad we have some other very good Tight Ends!

I gonna wait for the real story to come out.

I had high hopes for Asiasi. He was definintely one of the few recruits I thought would have a immediate impact and llenghty career from last year's class. So that sucks. But any OL we're losing will be very tough to overcome. :(
