we need to know which hand, angelique!
March 15th, 2011 at 12:20 PM ^
I thought he'd be far enough along in rehab at this point to start doing some position drills or something.
March 15th, 2011 at 12:22 PM ^
Didn't the ankle injury happen in August with surgery in late August / early September? My memory is not that great.
If so.. it's mid-March. That's 6.5 months after the fact. I thought this was one of those 8-9 months sort of injuries, but I could be wrong. Not surprised that he wouldn't be out there. Probably still needs to get stronger.
March 15th, 2011 at 12:23 PM ^
He's running. I don't know what type of position drills he'll be able to do (if any), but he'll definitely be held out of contact. I'd gladly have him sit out as long as he can solidify our secondary in September.
March 15th, 2011 at 12:26 PM ^
Definitely sit him as long as necessary. But I recall him tweeting beforethe bowl game that he could go if necessary but it would kill his redshirt.
March 15th, 2011 at 12:30 PM ^
I wonder if that was him just getting caught up in the moment of us finally getting in a bowl game and some extremely hopeful thinking. He would have been so far ahead of rehab schedule to play in the bowl game that I think we would want to draw some blood and see just how high his midi-chlorian count was.

Barwis-izing? You mean, it doesn't turn people into atomic supermen?
March 15th, 2011 at 12:35 PM ^
Hate to be the one to tell you this, Blaze... Barwis-izing has not been perfected yet. Sad, but true.
March 15th, 2011 at 12:33 PM ^
Well hopefully him and the rest of the defense can bring balance to the force this season.
March 15th, 2011 at 12:37 PM ^
YES! Mattison can prove his worth by taking these young padawans to another level.
March 15th, 2011 at 12:34 PM ^
If by "solidify" you mean "make suck slightly less."
March 15th, 2011 at 12:21 PM ^
he tried to high 5 Dave Brandon, who accidentally used his pimp hand
March 15th, 2011 at 12:39 PM ^
Accidentally or "accidentally"? Never lean on DBs Prius!
March 15th, 2011 at 12:22 PM ^
No injury will change that I have no earthly idea what to expect in our running back derby this season.

Oh I like this! I sent him a request to see if he had anytime to work on something.
Mike Shaw is Carlos Brown and that is a fact.
I'm starting to think the same thing it sure has been looking that way. Darn injury god needs to keep his ass away from UM for a year.
We are about to find out how bad the recruiting was under Rodriguez.
Huh? The guy screwed up tons of stuff, but I feel like he did a pretty solid job on the recruiting front.
What the fuck does this have to do with Michael Shaw's hand?
If those are really the only guys not practicing, that means all these must be good to go:
Kenny Demens (shoulder surgery in February or thereabouts)
Mike Jones
Jared Van Slyke
Mike Williams
Demens is a key returning starter and it would suck if he missed spring practice. Jones could be a top contender at WLB. Williams was supposedly likely to have career-ending concussion issues. Apparently not, since he's on the roster and not mentioned on the injured list.
Mike Williams is not on the updated spring roster
can we see the new roster? if at all?
I just asked Tim via Twitter: the response is no, because they were hard copies that were handed out.
Wow, this actually doesn't even bother me that much. How wonderful it is to not feel like the coach might be fired due to a bad break at any moment!
I hope Shaw's hand heals quickly and completely.
Mike Shaw? Hurt?!
GASP
Any confirming words on Mike Williams? Hoping for the best for him after the concussion.
*EDIT* I just read that is he in longer on the roster.
I'm fairly certain he's the reason Hoke said they're at 84 scholarships. If Williams were still on it, they would be at 85.
So what I take from this report is that Fitz isn't hurt and will practice. Now go and make that highlight reel I have been dreaming about a reality.
it's only March.....lets hope that everyone is healthy in late August.
