Per Baumgardner: Runyan good to go; OL is healthy
September 18th, 2019 at 2:12 PM ^
Can confirm. I suffered an oblique strain 4 weeks ago and I am 100% now. I felt about 80% after 3 weeks (assuming he injured it in Game 1). But he is younger than me and an athlete so he may recover faster.
September 18th, 2019 at 1:15 PM ^
This is great news! Now, please release the hounds and throw the ball to Tarik and Nico (and DPJ, if he;s on the field. Don't throw to him if he's on the bench.)
September 18th, 2019 at 1:16 PM ^
Good. Maybe Shea will be able to actually throw a pass or two without getting knocked on his ass. That would be nice.

Logged in to upvote the informative title. It also happens to be an informative post, so +2 if I could.
September 18th, 2019 at 1:24 PM ^
I want to believe. Really I do. But .... a lot would have to had been fixed in 2 weeks. Fingers crossed.
September 18th, 2019 at 1:24 PM ^
Good news!
Seems we could all use a little healing.
September 18th, 2019 at 1:27 PM ^
Great news! Wisconsin has a few injuries on the dline too. This should give Shea more time in the pocket.
September 18th, 2019 at 1:32 PM ^
Rumor out today is ZC had his knee scoped again and is out for a few weeks
September 18th, 2019 at 1:36 PM ^
My understanding is that the Charbonnet rumor originated with an OSU blogger who has been banned from Bucknuts and 11 Warriors. It probably doesn't have any legs.
September 18th, 2019 at 1:48 PM ^
I hope not but sure seems oddly specific
September 18th, 2019 at 1:52 PM ^
Fuck! Hopefully this guy is just trolling. That would be a huge blow to our offense and season
September 18th, 2019 at 1:45 PM ^
That's great news, need all hands on deck against the cheese eaters.
September 18th, 2019 at 1:48 PM ^
I have a really good feeling about Saturday. I think we get out to a 14 point lead as Wisconsin struggles offensively early. They eventually find their footing and we see some mistakes on offense it is 14-13 starting the 4th we end up winning comfortably 31-13.
September 18th, 2019 at 2:50 PM ^
Not really a shot at you personally, but I always find these hyper-specific predictions odd. Like this is just a complete guess based on gut feeling, right? More of a daydream than an informed prediction?
September 18th, 2019 at 3:17 PM ^
Of course it is. I have the time to post on a college football message board in the middle of a Wednesday I am obviously not working too hard at anything.
September 18th, 2019 at 3:31 PM ^
I posted something earlier in the week about a "what if we came out balling?" scenario and the nation finally says "oh, hello Michigan "
I threw out a completely random score around that theory and put down .......31-13. Complete out of the blue guess
I take this random coordination between us two as a fabulous sign :)
September 18th, 2019 at 4:13 PM ^
I will alert Vegas.
September 18th, 2019 at 1:50 PM ^
I’d be surprised if DPJ didn’t play. Earlier this week (Monday I think) Nick Eubanks posted an Instagram story where DPJ wasn’t in a boot and dancing around the locker room.
September 18th, 2019 at 1:54 PM ^
DPJ can rest still...we have enough receivers who can make acrobatic catches.
The O-line is a plus, especially considering how well they run blocked for Charbonnet against Army.
September 18th, 2019 at 2:09 PM ^
This has to be our best case scenario for Saturday! The whole O-Line fully healthy and ready to play!
Alright, who sacrificed a wild boar to the football gods?
September 18th, 2019 at 2:09 PM ^
What about if Michigan is down somebody else not on the OL?
September 18th, 2019 at 2:17 PM ^
Ohhhhh Cobra's back. Remember when you dickishly claimed that everyone was going to look stupid for doubting the Mayfield injury rumor? And now you're here, commenting on a post about how Mayfield is going to play this weekend? How fun is that!
Let me guess, you're talking about the rumor started by a guy banned from 11Warriors and OSU's 247 that Charbonnet had another knee scope. A rumor that makes no sense logistically: Michigan sat Charbonnet out of spring to have surgery to get healthy, even though he could have played. Now months later, even though he's been 100% healthy so far this season, the guy is claiming that there was another scope necessary and Michigan waited until this week to get it done. It's a rumor that also no credible reporter, Michigan or otherwise, has heard of (Sam even said he hadn't heard anything about it so he was going to look into it). So even if it was true, how would this OSU guy who's banned from OSU boards know about it?
So you were a cryptic asshole about an injury rumor that was wrong this weekend, and now you decided to be a cryptic asshole about an injury rumor again today. One that seemingly has no legs to it, once again. Either you didn't learn anything from the first time, or you're just a shitty troll. I'll go with both.
September 18th, 2019 at 2:39 PM ^
Rivals is repeating the Charbonnet rumor. It may be inaccurate, we will see Saturday.
September 18th, 2019 at 2:42 PM ^
And I'm sure they're pulling it from the same spot as everyone else, which is the one OSU "blogger" (Kyle Lamb) claiming this is true. Posters on Rivals repeating the same thing from the same shity source doesn't make it anymore likely to be true.
Someone on 247 (not Sam/Steve but a guy the mods say they trust) has already said people with direct knowledge about the situation have called the rumor "laughable."
The takeaway from this should be: Ignore outlandish rumors from unreliable sources, and ignore Cobra14.
September 18th, 2019 at 2:47 PM ^
We will know Saturday. In the event Charbonnet is out, it will show the Michigan writers are either completely shut out or refusing to report anything without permission.
September 18th, 2019 at 3:31 PM ^
Well on that note the dude who said it was laughable before is now backtracking and saying it's true. So fuck.
September 18th, 2019 at 3:48 PM ^
If true, then the whole of the UM media is nothing more than mouthpieces for the program. OSU guys giving more inside access to the program than the local writers is interesting.
September 18th, 2019 at 4:19 PM ^
You really think its a matter of OSU people getting more access? Probably just both groups getting wind of rumors, except one group has some journalistic integrity and won’t post things unless they’ve vetted the source. People like Yoder and Lamb just repeat rumors. You don’t see writers from the Columbus Dispatch talking about this.
September 18th, 2019 at 6:53 PM ^
September 18th, 2019 at 4:55 PM ^
First you dumb shit I never said Mayfield was the one hurt so go back and read the posts. I said Mayfield would be the one out of the 5 that would be the easiest to replace but it was all moot. I also said person who was hurt still had a chance to play Saturday so everyone calm down.
and no I didn’t take rumor from anywhere. Harbaugh had an hour long scrimmage 1 vs 1 late last week that got a bunch of guys banged up including ZC. Oh and Hutch was another one banged up. So you take it fwiw and also eat shit in the process
September 18th, 2019 at 5:21 PM ^
I do think Bambi owes you an apology. Bambi, what say you?
September 19th, 2019 at 1:39 PM ^
I'd either pay to see them fight... or pay for their room, haven't figured out which one yet...
September 18th, 2019 at 3:08 PM ^
I prefer the vague injury report from umbig11's "insider" information.
DL - Dwumfour might give it a go, but doubtful.
Lol, still sore, feeling better, probable, doubtful, might try anyway, maybe not.
September 19th, 2019 at 3:28 PM ^
He's an unequivocal maybe
September 18th, 2019 at 3:10 PM ^
Obviously Runyan reads this blog and took the advice of that bad-ass poster that said “heal the fuck up”.
September 18th, 2019 at 3:21 PM ^
You're welcome ;)
September 19th, 2019 at 1:34 PM ^
Good, RUN IT.... all day long!
If you want Speed in Space... open up a hole that Charb's can run through!
September 19th, 2019 at 3:27 PM ^
Now here's to hoping Dwumfour is ready to go
