Denard WILL Start vs. Minnesota

Sorry no link (yet) but it was just posted on the "BottomLine" on ESPN that Denard Robinson will start tomorrow at Minnesota.  I hope that is enough to go on; if not please delete and a post can be made once a true source is out for the "news".  Once more is out I'd be happy to post any relevent info. regarding the injury and how Denard has been coping/will cope with said injury.  Great news for us Michigan fans!  Go Blue.

Edit: (5:35 Central Time) - I'm thinking someone jumped the gun because this "story" hasn't been revealed to be true anywhere or by anyone, yet.  I apologize if this post ends up being false because I also jumped the gun after seeing the aforementioned "headline" earlier this afternoon.

Hopefully he will cope by handing off a lot. This would be a great opportunity for the tailbacks to get involved in a successful running attack.

Unless Gardner comes in when we're up 30-0...then no. Gardner has been getting more snaps at QB this week than Bellomy and Denard which likely means they're trying to prep Gardner for the backup roll should Denard go down again.

It implies that the coaches have realized that Gardner being kind of meh as a reciver + Bellomy clearly not being ready x ulnar nerver compression = welcome back to full time QB status for number 12.

From what I understand about the injury (and I'm no doctor) it just takes time to get feeling back.  He could be fine right now, but if he hits it again the same thing could happen.  You will see him hand off plenty on Saturday though.

I hate to play quote police/douchebag, but that kid (who had himself one hell of a child acting career) did not utter the "tumor" line.  The character named 'Loel' did, he had a few other dark ones about death as well.

The kid above's funniest line was probably, "boys have a penis, girls have a vagina", to which Mr. Kimball responds, "thanks for the tip".  This was part of the "who is your daddy, and what does he do?"  game.

start Denard at QB and run the damn ball, mix in some short passes, and don't be afraid to punt.  We aren't going to blow Minny out, but we should be fine with our D as long as we don't turn it over.  I'd feel better if Denard didn't have to run much, or play the whole game.
