Why isn't anyone talking about this yet?

It's sad that from his recruitment all the way until his final game at UM the image I see is him wobbling off the field against Minnesota. Wish his career had turned out differently here.

He isn't on the roster right now, so you couldn't kick him off it even if you wanted to.

Happy that Shane is doing well at CMU. Shane would have been 5 deep this year behind, Speight, Okorn, Peters and maybe McCaffery. I will never understand why people think Speight playing is a conspiracy and that someone is better behind him. There is not a coach in his right mind that would play the lesser talent. ESPECIALLY at Michigan where it really is a meritocracy. Shane has a rocket arm but that is where it ends.

I thought it was widely agreed Peters had the most true QB talent but didn't have enough "command" of the offense. So Harbaugh must not be in his right mind?

Root for him, be happy for him. He doesn't play for Michigan...let's support him, but we don't need a thread just because he played well versus Kansas.

"Played well" is a little bit of an undersell. Yes it's Kansas but still 467 yds and 5 TDs by a former Wolverine against a "power 5" team is thread worthy. How many times has it happened?

Kansas was a 5 plus point favorite. and as was the case last year, CMU beat another Big 12 opponent in their house in Oklahoma State. CMU was up 24-6 at the half, and cruised to an easy victory. The Chippewa's looked better than MIcihgan did today against Cincinnati and performed statistically better as well against a similar oppnent. So yah Dude, it was Kansas and a great effort by Shane.

Well, he was a 4-star recruit and a 0.9674 composite on 247, regardless of his play at michigan.

A team playing with a left handed QB has to commit to the left-hander, because of variables and ball spin and things and stuff. He's always been a good QB, just probably not a good thing to have your recievers possibly have to adjust back and forth between a left and right handed QB

Good for Shane. Good pickup for CMU.

Crazy.. Some guys just do better when they're "the man." It's a confidence thing. Has happened to multiple of our transfers. Rawls comes to mind. Wasn't a competition level thing for him because he's done well in the NFL too. Just had to get a jumpstart.

He gave everything to Michigan. Harbaugh wouldn't play him.

Now Central has a better starting QB than we do.

That is more inexplicable to me than 10 years of futility on the offensive line.

However, based on the number of negative mgopoints, the trolls on this site can't handle the truth. Still, I don't believe Shane would have the success at Michgain because of a dearth of quality offensive lineman and receiver performances. Basically, they are subpar at this point, whereas CMU is far superior so it's no surpirse he had the day he did, and will likely have more success as the season progresses.

that's why they neg us. we're not saying GO OSU! we're pointing out what every smart, honest person sees.

Shane is better than Speight. Always was, always will be.

Michigan's offensive line. WTF?

But I do think our young receiving corps has way way more upside than CMU, easy.

Now watch this get negged by the same people blaming HOKE ffs. Year 3 of Harbaugh and the snowflakes are blaming Hoke.

It's a conspiracy. Harbaugh wouldn't play him, and neither would Hoke, bar that one awful game. Clearly, someone got to both of them to keep Shane from taking the place he earned. I blame the Illuminati.

Toto, I don't think we're playing Kansas anymore. Anyway, I'm happy for Shane. That must have been a blast for him. Is this evidence of some Harbaughculan plot that anyone and everyone here should discuss ad nauseuam? Sorry. He was more a loogy with a 97-mph fastball and no second pitch when he was up against the big guys.

One, he has a quality offensive line blocking for him and at Micigan, he did not

Two, he has an excellent receiving core, one that Michigan doesn't compare to at all

CMU"s coach has way less talent the UM, yet lately when Central lands an Ann Arbor castoff, they improve substantially. Kudos to the Chippewa's and their win over KU, where they played in Kansas and were 5-1/2 point underdogs.
