Blake Countess Done For Year
Filed under:
A source close to the team has told me Blake Countess has torn ligaments in his knee and is done for the year.
Countess will get a medical redshirt and be a redshirt sophomore next year; in his stead, Michigan has some hard choices. Courtney Avery was not up to the task on the outside against Alabama. Raymon Taylor and Terry Richardson also got in there, though in the part of the game in which Alabama was just running out the clock. This might mean we see a lot more of Jarrod Wilson in the nickel package. Last night he came in and Michigan moved Thomas Gordon down to the nickelback spot.
Also, hurray!

I'm curious, how often do
I'm curious, how often do
I'm curious, how often do players make full recoveries from knee injuries like this? It often seems like they come back having lost a step or injury prone, hopefully it just observation bias on my part, heh.

Avery slipped and got
Avery slipped and got
Avery slipped and got embarrassed, but you know what? So did Dee Milliner. It happens. Avery is better than he showed on Saturday night. It definitely hurts to lose Countess, but I'm not worried that Avery will make a habit of getting burned like that.

Disagree.
Disagree.
Avery looked lost out there as a CB. Not much difference from start of last year. He's much more servicable as the nickelback. Hopefully one of the true freshmen can step and and contribute, like Blake did last year.

agreed. getting tired of morons writing off players after ONE BAD PLAY. Hey JT Floyd gave up a long TD to Indiana in 09, obviously he'll never be any good.
Denard threw a pick six Saturday night. Let's bench him.
Lewan had three bad penalties Saturday night. Let's bench him.
Demens had trouble getting to Yeldon unblocked. Let's bench him.
Jesus.

McCarron barely completed
McCarron barely completed
McCarron barely completed over 50% of his passes. Our pass defense was largely fine. Musberger liked talking about how badly Avery was getting picked on, but it was a single play.
Avery has established himself as a solid player. We'll be ok.

Yup. They "picked on" Avery
Yup. They "picked on" Avery
Yup. They "picked on" Avery again, but one was a short pass where Avery came up and made the tackle...and the other was a deep ball that was overthrown.

Wishing Blake a speedy recovery. He was by far one of my favorite new players last season, and I was really hoping for a crazy break-out season this year. #neverforget #AMSHG #respect

I tend to be a glass half full type of guy. If Countess was able to make a profound improvement and work his way into the starting lineup last year, who is to say there is not a freshman this year that can make a similar impact as Countess did last year?

Dee Hart looked pretty athletic after coming back from a major knee injury. Here's hoping Countess can recover like that or better.

I only know you will get there, and you will come out the other end of this process an even better and stronger person.

At least we will have him for next year.... I also do think that there was alot of calls not made against mich we got called for holding when alabama face masked rawrls. All in all mich is not tough enough for a team like alabama. I give them two years and we will be back on top!

If Michigan's so light on personnel the coaches trust to play on the kick/punt coverage units, why the hell didn't they give Terrence Robinson a fifth year? That guy was lights out on special teams last season.
