Spike Albrecht - Anyone need a Shooter?

[RU-Choppin-Ohio]

Transferring from Michigan as a 5th year grad

Before everyone goes nuts...I am not advocating that Rutgers consider this, even if a transfer spot opens up later this spring. Need guys and shooters with length and long arms.....like a poor man's Malachi Richardson at 6'6".

Yes, but only if he understands he's not starting over Corey. I'm sure it's not happening though.

Why would he leave Michigan?

Why would he leave Michigan?

I believe He is leaving because he got hurt this year and wanted to redshirt. Beilein let him sit out but couldn't promise him a scholarship for next season.

Yes he'd be a grad transfer so he can play anywhere, including in the B1G, immediately.

According to this article, UM is 1 over their limit of scholarships for next season...

"With U-M already one over the NCAA scholarship limit of 13 for next season"

I would think there are about 50 other Power 5 conference schools he could select over Rutgers

Is that how Ruddock left Iowa to start at QB for Michigan this year? He didn't have to sit out

 

[TDIrish27]

Would take him at ND in a heartbeat with Jackson leaving early.

Mike and Mike are going crazy over this today. Michigan has told him that he no longer has a scholarship, they don't want him, but he cannot go to a Big 10 school. Big 10 rule says he must sit a year which he doesn't have. Ridiculous!

 

[mwcllc]

someone said he is graduating and that because of that he doesnt have to sit out and can go anywhere he wants-

It is being reported that Michigan will now lift the transfer restrictions.

It is being reported that Michigan will now lift the transfer restrictions.

Soon these coaches are going to realize that every time they try to do this, they get rightfully killed in the media, and then they backtrack from the pressure and let the kid go free. Just rip the bandaid off immediately and don't look like a dick for 48 hours.
