2023 Michigan Season Thread
« on: December 05, 2022, 01:54:36 AM »
didn't know where to put this, so just figured this would work.

Apparently starting TE Erik All and starting Nickel/Slot Corner Mike Sainistril are both going to return to Michigan in 2023. All is their best TE and he missed all of 2022 after having a back surgery. Sainistril was in his first year ever playing DB after switching from WR and he was honestly freaking awesome. That is pretty big news having both of them back.

Starting EDGE Mike Morris, starting DT Mazi Smith, starting CB DJ Turner, starting WR Ronnie Bell, and starting LG Trevor Keegan are probably the only names they're waiting on. All those guys have 1-2 years left if they want them. Mike Morris just won B1G DL of the Year Award and Mel Kiper has him on his big board in the 1st rd. Mazi Smith is probably at worst a 2nd rd pick if he came out I would think. Both those guys have NFL bodies and ability the NFL will salivate over. Don't think DJ Turner or Ronnie Bell are going to be anything higher than 3rd to 5th rd draft picks at best- not sure coming back helps either ones draft stock that much so both might be gone. Trevor Keegan could stay or go- neither would surprise me.

Starting LT Ryan Hayes and #2 TE Luke Schoonmaker have both already declared their hand at the NFL- both could've gotten a COVID year and come back for one more but are moving on. RB Blake Corum is thought to be declaring for the NFL- which he 100000% should. RB's need to go pro soon as they can imo.

Apparently your Erick All info was not correct because he’s bailing. Did so with a weird tweet.

And he seemed to take a shot at Michigan on his way out. Don't know if it was directed at Harbaugh or the medical staff...but he said people aren't what they seem and he's learned that well at his time at Michigan. Really weird situation. He was a team captain.

Cade is All's BFF- they are very close. I'd be on the lookout for Iowa. Just a real weird situation.

may more likely be the medical staff. Don't know the exact details but Michigan medical staff apparently suggested he not get a spinal surgery to help with a chronic back problem. He went to another doctor to get a 2nd opinion down in Florida somewhere, wound up having the spinal surgery with those doctors in Florida and sat out the entire 2022 season. 

Rampant rumors and speculation are that Michigan medical staff wouldn't clear him to play again. So it could be he's pissed at the medical staff or Harbaugh. Don't know the whole deal, but it's obvious he and his family aren't happy with Michigan right now.

could be that or All family could be upset that Michigan didn't sign off the surgery and do it themselves. 

spinal surgeries and back issues are no joke. maybe he should quit playing football. if it was a position like QB maybe I could see it- QB is most protected position in the sport....but when you're a TE and your bending down next to an o-linemen and blocking edge defenders and linebackers all game long and hitting defenders and taking hits from defenders all game long...might not be a good idea.

Michigan's medical staff is very conservative wrt player safety after the 2014 Shane Morris Minnesota game concussion BS.

there have been some rumblings and innuendo that Corum may announce his decision to return to Michigan in 2023. That would be huge news, obviously. Corum & Edwards together again would be insane.
