Surprise! Guess who's on the UConn injury report:

Out: Fitzgerald Toussaint (knee), Jared Van Slyke (clavicle), Troy Woolfolk (ankle)
Questionable: Junior Hemingway (hamstring)

Never doubt Junior Hemingway's ability to get injured.

What would Michigan football be like without every team having at least one highly-touted skill position player having a career plagued by injury?

Stranger than fiction. Like Ernest, Michigan's J.R. edition is also closely associated with ambulances.

Hemingway's ability to get injured is surpassed only by Carlos Brown's ability to fall down without being touched and Michigan Seconday Hating God's ability to pick off players using whatever means available.

They are, however, equally as frustrating

Rich Rod stated that Fitz would "probably" be ready for next week, but will be out this one.

Seeing how much hype he's been getting (or maybe I'm just listening to Fred Jackson too much) I'm dying to actually see him play.

Also did Van Slyke break his collarbone?  If so he's out for a while, which means 1 more Michigan secondary guy out.   Not that he would have played much, if any, but still...

I hope RR is playing with Uconn like their coach played with the whole Lloyd injury.  Still haven't figured out how a guy who is out for the season suddenly is starting in game 1.

So if VanSlyke is out then Vlad will be 2nd string. We'll see if he has the speed. D@mn Junior...has to be so frustrating - having a tweaked hammy is not good for a WR at all...
