Why was Clark even in the game playing special teams at this point in the game!
Thats why you have 2nd string and 100+ rosters for home games

When you put benchwarmers on the kickoff team, you often struggle. We've been very good on both kick returns and kick coverage this year, and some of that is probably related to using some experienced players. Do you risk giving up field position to protect guys from injury? It's tricky.
September 24th, 2016 at 10:37 PM ^
We were up 3 scores, I would give up field position all day, to help prevent injuries
September 24th, 2016 at 10:52 PM ^
So you are saying Harbaugh doesn't know what he is doing??? Injuries are such a random thing, he could have gotten hurt on the next series or to be fair maybe never.
September 24th, 2016 at 10:45 PM ^
Any play could be your last. If you are going to sit on the bench because you are afraid of being injured then you don't belong on the field.

Agree so much - that would be playing to lose.

Considering you can get injured on the first play of the game just as easily as getting injured on the last play of the game the entire point of "he shouldn't have been in the game at that point" is moot. Injuries can happen at any time, the only way to not get injured is to not be on the field at all.

It's a game late, isn't it? Awful.
September 24th, 2016 at 7:46 PM ^
if we play at least 14 games right?. We need to win the B1G to get Clark his medical RS!!
September 24th, 2016 at 7:48 PM ^
I'm pretty sure the rule is based only upon regular season games.
September 24th, 2016 at 8:15 PM ^
Indeed. The NCAA's 6th-year game is a crapshoot, but I don't see how there's wiggle room here. 5th year redshirt senior, injury in the 4th game, he's done. Awful.
September 25th, 2016 at 9:31 AM ^
he wins practice player of the week?
Poor kid, I have never seen a more dejected looking football player than when he was being carted off the field. Major sad face.
September 24th, 2016 at 9:04 PM ^
that B1G championship and playoff/bowl games count.
It won't be the four games that prevent a 6th year if we make the B1G Championship game. (But the 6th year issue will still have to be overcome.)
4/13 (reg seas + bowl) = 30.8% but
4/14 (reg seas + CCG + bowl) = 28.6%

12.8.4 Hardship Waiver. A student-athlete may be granted an additional year of competition by the conference or the Committee on Student-Athlete Reinstatement for reasons of "hardship." Hardship is defined as an incapacity resulting from an injury or illness that has occurred under all of the following conditions: (Revised: 1/10/92 effective 8/1/92, 1/14/97, 8/1/97, 4/26/01 effective 8/1/01, 11/1/01, 4/3/02, 8/8/02, 3/10/04, 5/11/05, 9/18/07, 11/1/07 effective 8/1/08, 4/24/08, 7/31/14)
(a) The incapacitating injury or illness occurs in one of the four seasons of intercollegiate competition at any two-year or four-year collegiate institutions or occurs after the first day of classes in the student-athlete's senior year in high school;
(b) The injury or illness occurs prior to the first competition of the second half of the playing season that concludes with the NCAA championship in that sport (see Bylaw 12.8.4.3.4) and results in incapacity to compete for the remainder of that playing season;
(c) In team sports, the injury or illness occurs when the student-athlete has not participated in more than three contests or dates of competition (whichever is applicable to that sport) or 30 percent (whichever number is greater) of the institution's scheduled or completed contests or dates of competition in his or her sport. Only scheduled or completed competition against outside participants during the playing season that concludes with the NCAA championship, or, if so designated, during the official NCAA championship playing season in that sport (e.g., spring baseball, fall soccer), shall be countable under this limitation in calculating both the number of contests or dates of competition in which the student-athlete has participated and the number of scheduled or completed contests or dates of competition during that season in the sport. Dates of competition that are exempted (e.g., alumni contests, foreign team in the United States) from the maximum permissible number of contests or dates of competition shall count toward the number of contests or dates in which the student-athlete has participated and the number of scheduled or completed contests or dates of competition in the season, except for scrimmages and exhibition contests that are specifically identified as such in the sport's Bylaw 17 playing and practice season regulations. Scrimmages and exhibition contests that are not exempted from the maximum permissible number of contests or dates of competition may be excluded from the calculation only if they are identified as such in the sport's Bylaw 17 playing and practice season regulations; and

I don't know his injury history. If he missed another year in the past he could be eligible for one.

How is that any different than Davis? Just exaggerate some injury he had during his initial redshirt year.

Ojemudia is in the NFL. Clark can recover and make it there too.
Just as long as John Harbaugh coaches the Ravens, there is always a chance!
September 25th, 2016 at 10:47 AM ^
Not that it changes your point, But Mario is not in the NFL, was cut during the pre-season.

I think he means because Clark was still in the game. But I disagree with him. Yeah, Michigan was rolling, but we weren't up anymore than State was on ND. You can't just give up on the game the moment you think you're doing well. Bigger comebacks have happened and hindsight is 20/20. It's a freak thing, It happens, unfortunately. Could have happened in practice.
September 24th, 2016 at 8:47 PM ^
Bingo. Should Harbaugh hold players out of practice?

It's too bad for Jeremy. Injuries suck the big one as I well know. Michigan does happen to have the best from the West in freshman David Long. Time to break him in. Kick the tires kid, it's time to roll.
