No, he tried to give it a go in warmups and couldn't do it. He injured his foot late in the UNL game.
Man, good thing Carriere-Williams quit. He just wasn’t gonna get any PT.

He crossed my mind last week. I then noticed he's not doing much at his current JuCo stop either.



I also see that CB Hicks and FS Nelson got injured during the game Saturday. Maybe there will be some open tryouts this week.

It's the funny thing about this boom in transfers as though guys always stay healthy.  MSU had 2 WRs transfer (although there had to be more to Rison, because he was likely in the starting group) claiming PT, as MSU was stuck playing most of the game Saturday with one healthy scholarship WR.  How often do these PT hunting transfers actually work out?

Taylor was outstanding. If Michigan had him I’d predict they’d win the National title. I really think that kid is that good. Best Wisconsin RB that I’ve seen and that is saying a lot bc they’ve had some pretty good ones. He’s got size, power, speed, vision, acceleration, and he always gets an extra 1-3 yards after contact.

Oh ya and by the way Michigan can go ahead and give Don Brown, Greg Mattison, and Ed Warriner lifetime contracts and make them the highest paid DC, DL, and OL coaches ASAP. 

Those 3 guys have been the key to this turnaround after that embarrassing ND start.

Brown is 63, he's probably at Michigan until he retires, I can't imagine him getting another HC offer worth taking at his age.
Mattison is 68, he's certainly at Michigan until he retires.
Warriner is only 56, I would think his tenure depends on getting another OC shot or not.

I think that since they are specialized, typically scrawny players, just like a punter, that the rule is meant to treat them just like a punter. Would you recommend doing away with "running into" and "roughing" the punter as penalties, too? And instead turn it into an unnecessary roughness judgment call? Maybe that'd be better, but I'm not convinced.
well, running into the kicker shouldn't b a penalty.  If someone hits the kicker hard enough to injure him, it should be 15 yards and automatic.  If the kicker simply gets run into or bumped w/o much risk of injury, why the penalty????
roughing the kicker or unnecessary roughness is always a judgement call.  Why have a separate penalty for the kickers?
As for long snappers.... it's not the defender's problem he's a scrawny bitch that can't protect himself.  If he can't snap the ball accurately w/o looking between his legs and protecting himself, maybe he should bulk up in the weight room or go back to soccer or a non-contact sport.
now, intentionally trying to injury the long snapper by jumping on top of him or by other means

I was a long snapper,  every time the huddle broke, the Umpire would say quite loudly,  'nobody mess with the snapper'.  It was gospel (this was early 90s).   Only once did I get mildly rammed by a guy trying to rush a gap on a kick and the flag was thrown.

On the play on Saturday in Ann Arbor, while it wasn't a cheap shot per se, it is not typical to see a snapper pushed backwards towards the punter like that.   though Cheeseman allowed himself to get taken up in the current IMO.

then there should also not be any fake punts with the snap to the upback going straight ahead behind the center for a yard ro two

The snapper engaged in the block and got beat. Then he did a little dance on the sideline with is buddies after the BS call gave Michigan another chance. Michigan must coach this?? It's only happened to UW twice, and both have been in Ann Arbor (2016 was the other one).

well, the Michigan coaches could certainly ask the officials to be on the lookout

Can't imagine how enraging it must be to watch an opposing player celebrate a flop.  >:(
