SoDevoted to what exactly....
August 24th, 2016 at 2:06 PM ^
The kid is 18 years old. Don't be a douche.
August 24th, 2016 at 4:34 PM ^
fraud
August 24th, 2016 at 2:06 PM ^
If that Michigan degree wasn't "best for his family" then it's time to find a new family kid.

I know what a dumbass. Graduating from Michigan would probably take his family up a notch.
August 24th, 2016 at 2:25 PM ^
As opposed to Ole Miss or any other SEC school outside of Vandy...
August 24th, 2016 at 4:16 PM ^
The kid handled it with class. You, however, are the one being a dumbass.
August 24th, 2016 at 1:46 PM ^
Shit, it's like Brian Cole all over again
August 24th, 2016 at 3:31 PM ^
If that community college gets Cole and Mitchell, they win the national championship easy.
August 24th, 2016 at 1:47 PM ^
Well looks like we can take a extra receiver in this class
August 24th, 2016 at 2:13 PM ^
Hopefully it'll get DONe with just the PEOPLES we are JONESing for.
August 24th, 2016 at 2:25 PM ^
I think Sam put the number at 4 this week on WTKA.
August 24th, 2016 at 3:07 PM ^
Well what does he know about michigan recruiting besides everything?
August 24th, 2016 at 1:47 PM ^
That's really disappointing. Best of luck to him. I hope we can recruit some solid safeties this cycle

Best of luck, kid. Best of luck.

So many Harbaugh think pieces and blazing hot takes coming after this week.
August 24th, 2016 at 1:49 PM ^
Makes sense now that we want 4 WRs in 2017. Collins, DPJ, Black, and Oliver Martin.
August 24th, 2016 at 2:08 PM ^
It was crazy at first to take more than 2 WRs in 2017 when we took 6 in 2016. But that number has come down to three legit receivers with Hawkins academically ineligible, Mitchell leaving, and Evans beasting at RB (thank heavens for this). So 3 smallerish WRs in 2016 with 4 outside receivers in 2017 would be a good haul. I'm just worried for our safety depth. Really hope we land Markquese Bell and JKP.
August 24th, 2016 at 2:34 PM ^
yes, S depth a huge concern right along with OT and DT. Hudson reports are at least encouraging in the S department.
August 24th, 2016 at 7:25 PM ^
we took six WRs. You're far from alone in doing so. Evans was not a WR. It was possible he would move there or to DB. Mitchell and/or Hawkins were expected to move to S. Counting all three of them as WRs just seems wrong with the purpose of making the class seem unbalanced.
August 24th, 2016 at 1:49 PM ^
The word was he was suspended for a year. He hasn't even been in fall camp which puts him behind even further.

Surprised it took this long. You expect one more to join him. Just the way it is.
August 24th, 2016 at 1:55 PM ^
Maybe I'm naive, but one more to join him?
August 24th, 2016 at 1:58 PM ^
There were two players suspsended from the team, he was only one.
August 24th, 2016 at 2:00 PM ^
Shelton Johnson
August 24th, 2016 at 2:01 PM ^
Probably better for all parties.
August 24th, 2016 at 1:50 PM ^
Suspended for a whole year? Damn. I wonder what he did.

about beating OSU and MSU. It was driving everyone crazy.
August 24th, 2016 at 2:51 PM ^
Perfect.

We shouldn't talk about that until...you know...
August 24th, 2016 at 4:27 PM ^
he apparently wasn't aware that we shouldn't be talking about beating MSU and OSU until we beat MSU and OSU?
August 24th, 2016 at 4:33 PM ^
How was his pad level?
August 24th, 2016 at 2:00 PM ^
I was hoping he'd just look at it like a redshirt year. He'll have to sit out to play elsewhere anyway.
August 24th, 2016 at 7:29 PM ^
If suspended meant he couldn't practice and be a part of the team then I don't think he had much choice. If it was just a forced redshirt, that's a different story.
August 24th, 2016 at 1:49 PM ^
I will say best of luck to this young man in his education and future. Not everything works like you plan.
Michigan will be okay.
August 24th, 2016 at 1:51 PM ^
Also unfortunate I double posted. Not everything works out like you plan.
August 24th, 2016 at 1:49 PM ^
Can't say I'm surprised and wish the kid the best. But can the season start already? These last few days have been a bummer.
August 24th, 2016 at 1:50 PM ^
Really disappointing, was excited to see him out there, even if he was going to be in the dog-house this season. Looked like a great athlete who could be a real difference maker, especially with the extra time from enrolling early.
Best of luck to him wherever he goes.
August 24th, 2016 at 1:50 PM ^
I knew he was in the dog house but not the reason. What happened here?
August 24th, 2016 at 1:50 PM ^
At least he has a redshirt. That really sucks for him.
August 24th, 2016 at 1:50 PM ^
So is this his decision or Harbaugh's decision? Cause it seems crazy to transfer after half a year.
August 24th, 2016 at 1:50 PM ^
Doesn't bode well for Shelton Johnson
August 24th, 2016 at 1:52 PM ^
Very disappointing. He seemed like a guy that had the talent to be a contributor whichever side of the ball he landed on. Whatever it was that got him in to some supposed hot water, lets hope he gets that stuff straightened out. Best of luck to him and here's hoping this opens up an opportunity for another young man on this promising squad.
August 24th, 2016 at 1:54 PM ^
Well it sure seems like its been heading that way for a while. Hope whatever is going on, he can get it straightened out at the next stop. Definitely sucks because he sure looked like he could've been a contributor next year, and even though he was raw, he was oozing with potential.
Oh well, that's life. Next man up.
August 24th, 2016 at 2:01 PM ^
Sounds like a handful of people here know why he was suspended. Can we at least get some somewhat vague discription? I'm curious what type of actions got the kid suspended for the entire year.
August 24th, 2016 at 2:20 PM ^
I enjoyed Dr Dres first solo album..did you?
