There are...
...days until Donovan Warren and Brandon Minor watch Michigan beat Hawaii by many points.
Donovan played at Michigan from 2007 to 2009. He then decided to leave a year early only to not get drafted, even though the NFL's draft advisory board believed he'd be selected anywhere from round one to round three. Oops. Donovan signed a contract with the Jets, but was released in September of 2010. He also saw time with the Steelers, Lions, and Bears ("oh my"), but never panned out into a viable NFL cornerback.
Brandon was, simply put, a beast for Michigan (at least I think so). He wasn't the fastest, strongest, and certainly not the best running back in football, but the guy just worked really hard and played well fairly consistently. He split a lot of time with Sam McGuffie, Michael Shaw, and Carlos Brown, but at some point, Brandon beat Sam for the starting position in 2008. He, too, went undrafted, but signed a deal with the Bears, from which he was released in September of the same year. Brandon then saw time with the Saints, Colts, Packers, and Broncos.

IIRC, he hurt his ankle prior to the combines and performed horribly. He left after his Junior year when told he was a 1-3 round pick. His combine performance scared the teams away.
Dang there are still too many days left. Good things are coming our way though and I love it. Go Blue
He was probably the best back on the team after Hart left but I remember him having to sit out a lot because of injuries.
He did have a number of injuries (wrist, ankle sprain and shoulder sprain) so that caused him to miss a number of games after becoming starter and reduced his effectiveness.
