Congrats to all three on the hard work! Go Blue!

Seems like Wroblewski hype is real.
Congrats to all these young men! What an honor.

Awesome! It seems like Mike Wroblewski is going to be a decent contributor this season.
August 26th, 2016 at 8:11 AM ^
Always nice to hear the unknown guys that work their asses off getting credit like this! Congrats to those men!!
August 26th, 2016 at 8:11 AM ^
It's nice to see their hard work and dedication pay off in lifting that financial burden.
Congrats to all!

about Wroblewski? Does he have a brother?
August 26th, 2016 at 8:16 AM ^
Congrats to them!!

I love it when those who are focus obtain their goal...
August 26th, 2016 at 8:30 AM ^

if this post doesn't get a lot more upvotes. Well played.
August 26th, 2016 at 8:31 AM ^
and Go Blue!
August 26th, 2016 at 8:34 AM ^
Congratulations to all.
August 26th, 2016 at 8:37 AM ^
and I wish it was celebrated or publicized more. The fact of the matter is that a high percentage of walk-ons wont have an NFL contract in their lifetime, and getting their school paid for is HUGE.

it's good to see JH meritocracy at work. There is no doubt these young men earned what they have been given. Kudos to them for putting in the hard work.
August 26th, 2016 at 9:11 AM ^
If Wroblewski has to play in crunch time, I'll be pretty concerned. He moved from DE, he's slow, and he was out of position in the spring.
Congratulations to him because he earned a scholarship, but Michigan needs other guys to step up at inside linebacker. I'm guessing that if Gedeon misses much time, we'll see McCray, Furbush, Bush, etc. get more playing time at MIKE rather than inserting Wroblewski full-time.

Moundros was the starting FB for a number of years just like his brother before him. It wasn't like he didn't see game action for 3 years and then moved to FB. Different system under RR, meant they didn't necessarily need him at FB.

By my count, Michigan has one more to give along with Moores, Wroblewski, and Pearson. We had 81 scholarship guys, including Glasgow and Allen, so those three put us at 84.

I know scholarships are usually given to upperclassman walk-ons, but 247 was saying good things about Andrew Vastardis. Maybe he gets one.
August 26th, 2016 at 10:23 AM ^
I doubt it. Plus, it's kind of a diss to take away a scholarship once it's handed out, so you would basically be hinting that he has a 4- or 5-year scholarship since he's only a freshman. I think it's more likely that Bobby Henderson, Ben Pliska, or Michael Jocz ends up with a scholarship.
August 26th, 2016 at 11:47 AM ^
Henderson or Hirsch. I'd say Henderson.

I'm 99% sure you can't give a walk-on a scholarship without releasing a flashy video that publicizes the school and coach
August 26th, 2016 at 10:21 AM ^
Who cares if they don't see the field on Saturday if they make the guys that do work and play better?

I love the walk-on program that Harbaugh is developing. And as an aside I'm happy that the staff is able to make lemonade (3 walk-ons receiving scholarships) out of lemons (Mitchell/others suspensions/departures).
August 26th, 2016 at 11:48 AM ^
This mean Garrett Moores is in the mix for starting QB!
August 26th, 2016 at 11:53 AM ^
I remember ESPN did a piece a year or two ago where they showed teams suprising walk-ons with a scholarship offer. Like watching Rudy in real life. Great stuff.
GO BLUE!!

Nice to see that their hard work has paid off. Congrats to them!
