Marvin Robinson to Start?

From Adam Rittenberg's chat today:

"

Daniel (Orlando)


What is going on with Michigan defense this year? Marvin Robinson is expected to start saturday, so he will burn his redshirt. Do you think it will be another shootout in Ann Arbor this weekend against Bowling Green?"

 

Did I miss something?

Didn't Brian mention something in mail bag the last couple weeks where a guy could play the first 4 games of a year and if he gets an injury that ends his season, he wouldn't lose that year of eligibility?

He also said around week 4 is a time where injuries seem to happen. 

If he can help us back there, I am all for playing him regardless of the eligibility issues.

Robinson does not play for the rest of the season (which is highly unlikely) he would still have to apply for a medical redshirt and may not even receive it.

Robinson will end up being too good not to play.

Starting in the Thomas Gordon spot? T-Gord has been playing decently so maybe this is a chance at giving a back-up some playing experience. If the redshirt is gone then you might as well get him some PT....also could be he really earned it in practice.

Starting from a low base it will most likely help us.  Its not a total panic move, hopefully GERG can empty the bench against BGSU and everyone gets to play like its a 2nd grade soccer game.

Instead of Sasquatch, they should have "Messin with MRob" commercials, where someone does something stupid, MRob gives them that stare and then proceeds to decapitate them.

we should get players as much as experience as we can before we start Big Ten play.  Plus, I was wondering how he would stack up against Kovacs, so it will be good to get a look.

Get a young kid some experience for the long term?  And risk an MGoBoard meltdown if BGSU scores over 20 points?  No way, I say we do everything to throttle these "lesser" teams so that the people of MGoBoard sleep easier at night.  Forget long term success, these kids at computers need something to feel good about.

I don't know, I wouldn't put much weight into something some dude from Orlando wrote in a question to ESPN's Big Ten blogger. But that's just me.

...especially because that poster from Orlando apparently thought that it would be Robinson's first time on the field.

If an "insider" doesn't know that Robinson's redshirt has already been burned, then I doubt he knows whether Robinson will start or not.

Daniel from Orlando also gave me a great stock tip, and I sold the farm on it.  Why am I so trusting?

If Michigan has a stud like MRob who can play, then by all means put him in. This guy is one of the best recruiters for our team. I think he will be even more effective when he starts seeing the field on a more regular basis.

As for Carvin Johnson, I think they are just being cautious. They could have used him last week, but it wasn't worth bringing him back and not having him available for the Big 10 campaign. Better to sit him out this week as well and if not needed, against Indiana as well. Have him back for MSU at 100% not 75 or 80.

I doubt that whoever asked the question has any credible sources.  Someone who has knowledge that M. Robinson is starting would also know that M. Robinson already played this year and thus is not redshirting.  And secondly, someone with insider knowledge of M. Robinson starting wouldn't be asking Rittenbarg about what's going on with the D, since he probably knows better himself.

I like Cam even if the growing pains have been pretty obvious, any chance Mrob gets a shot at deep safety.

I thought he was better but then again, did UMASS ever challenge us deep?  I don't remember much of that, lots of dink and dunk roll play action pass plays.

....UMass did not go deep much.  But, I know their QB couldn't find open men sometimes.  Maybe he was looking downfield?  They scouted us well and I would bet they were looking to burn Cam at some point.

Also, Cam seemed to do well in run support.

 

I think he improved.

UMass may not have gone deep very often because our DBs were 40 yds off of the line of scrimmage. Some call it a "cushion", I call it "we can't get beat deep if we start off deep" or WCGBDIWSOD for short. Quite effective at beating the long ball.

The defense was so skittish after the ND bombfest that it was a lot of umbrella coverage and 3 man rush, so UMass just took what we gave them (as far as this layman could tell).
