Sources indicated late Friday afternoon that the Michigan football program is no longer exploring the possibility of adding former Duke PG Greg Paulus to its fall roster.

JUST IN....

According to an ESPN source "close" to the program, walk on Jack Kennedy says he has been told by Rich Rod that he has the chance to compete for the starting quarterback position at Michigan. Reportedly, Jack was seen at practice on Tuesday, and unlike Paulus was dressed and throwing. Which begs the question, who will start more games this year at quarterback, Mitch Mustain or Jack Kennedy? My God Rich Rod has sh*tted all over this program. Go F**k yourself big-ten.

A full 24 hours after it was announced that UM is no longer interested in Paulus, ESPN still has a "Paulus may vie for UM QB" story as one of their college FB home page items. Must be the same source that had Miles already inking his contract to come here.

whole thing is dead, but actually it's perfectly symptomatic of the cluelessness of most "professional journalists" and the media empires they work for. They prefer to settle on catchy, headline-worthy angles—Rodriguez destroyed irreplaceable files, RR hates family values, RR told all fans to get a life, and now RR is "desperate"—regardless of the easily obtainable factual evidence disproving all of them.
