Get it right.  He lied to them.  Period. 

You don't what happened.  The only people that know are the NCAA and people at the University of Michigan and they're not talking.  And at this point everything is an allegation.

Ok. If that makes you feel better. 

I read what Wojo wrote about it( he has inside access)

this was a big, nothing burger, and it could’ve easily been reported minor, minor self in fraction, but when Harbaugh was questioned about it- he did his usual ornery bullshit and denied that he remembered it happening.

Listen to you, Mr. holier than thou, Michigan man.  Lol.  You sure change your tune with it involves your school.

I hate it when any of our schools get into trouble. That said:

But the NCAA has said this is NOT about cheeseburgers.

[FearlessF]

[Mdot21]

That's just stupid.

That's just stupid.

that's Michigan for you. stupid af. they've never been able to get JUCOs in and have lost many transfers over the years because of credits transfer issues.

In general they try to screw you on transfers.

I transferred from Indiana to Michigan State, which seems like a pretty lateral move.  Every credit I transferred, including some 200 level math and econ classes I took freshman year transferred as general credit.  Oddly, "Intermediate Piano for Non-Music Majors", which I took to fulfill some requirement, actually fulfilled a "World Cultures" requirement at MSU.  Those 2 credits were the only credits that didn't transfer as general credit.  So it took me 4.5 years to graduate, just to hit my requirements.  I wound up with like 145 credits and a couple minors.

My brother did a year at CC, then transferred to Michigan, and every single one of his credits transferred for what it was.  I know its taboo, but man, you save so much money doing that, for the same curriculum, actually taught by a more qualified instructor, as opposed to some overworked TA, speaking to a room of 500 kids

In my time as a UW ran, which is coming up on 40 (!) years, I've only seen them land 3-4 JUCO kids. These were kids who developed later and became solid players. To get into UW as a transfer you must have been able to qualify out of HS.

Donovan Edwards, RB (he's already said he's going pro after this year) - could be the first RB taken in the 2024 NFL draft

Not sure how I missed this but from august 9th

“I will go down as one of the greatest running backs to ever play the game,” Edwards declared to PFF. “I’ll be up there with Walter Payton, Barry Sanders. I believe I will revolutionize the game and the position. This is the perfect time for me because the NFL wants running backs who can catch. 🤑
     

To which a Spartans Fan replied "1.5 yards per carry, he’s certainly revolutionizing the position." 6 attempts for 9yds last week vs UNLV
He has more career yards against UNLV than either Payton or Sanders.

I generally don't like kids talking like that, just focus on being a great player, keep your mouth shut, let the play do the talking, and stay humble. but what do you want him to say? i'm gonna suck! great players have to think like that. obviously it's better if they don't say it publicly though....

in the first two games of last season vs juggernauts Colorado State and Hawaii he had a combined 15 carries for 90 yards. right now he's at 18 carries for 46 yards. not as good, but still comparable vs a couple of tomato cans. but he's also missed all of training camp recovering from injury this off-season. he'll get up to speed, and he'll be fine. no one cares what he does in Michigan's NFL pre-season. for him it's all about conference play and Ohio State.

And the Spartan fan who replied would cut his pinky off to have Edwards on his team btw, he'd be by far the best player on that roster if he was on it.

[MrNubbz]

Find out UNLV,hmm. That's some serious delusion the kid is a borderline moron if he actually thinks that
