Sam Webb hints that DB is transferring
Speaking about the Terry Richardson offer, Webb intimated that a DB "not highly recruited" is leaving. I don't want to necessarily speculate too much (ok, maybe a little) but i think it's a young kid who doesn't think he's going to play much down the road (rather than a veteren guy like Mike Williams not returning who I don't think is on scholarship for his 5th year anyway).

Curious to see how the coaching change affects our APR.

Dude, that is verbatim copy-and-paste. Not cool. I see you are kind of new, so basically it is not acceptable to take information that is behind a paywall and post it to a free forum for all to see.

plagarism is never a big deal.
February 10th, 2011 at 9:41 PM ^
Its not. Unless of course you're in an academic setting.
February 10th, 2011 at 8:57 AM ^
Probably Brown.
February 10th, 2011 at 8:57 AM ^
Touched on in the ZOMG KEVIN KOGER TWEET thread...but all signs are pointing towards Greg Brown.
February 10th, 2011 at 8:57 AM ^
Dave Brandon is transferring? I knew that the CC would cause attrition...
February 10th, 2011 at 9:24 AM ^
he finally realized he was in over his head
February 10th, 2011 at 9:28 AM ^
WHO WANTS SOME PIIIIIIIZZZZZZZZZZAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA?!?!!
February 10th, 2011 at 10:04 AM ^
That's not the first time I've seen that video but man, it creeps me out every single time!!
February 10th, 2011 at 10:15 AM ^
That is awesome (and frightening).
February 10th, 2011 at 10:50 AM ^
shall haunt my dreams
February 10th, 2011 at 11:53 AM ^
I just came across this video like a week ago. Still good.
February 10th, 2011 at 12:26 PM ^
It totally freaks me out when that one kid says, "Caramel coconut cream."
February 10th, 2011 at 1:09 PM ^
That may or may not be the most terrifying thing I've ever watched.
February 10th, 2011 at 1:53 PM ^
Well...that was horrifying!!
February 10th, 2011 at 2:08 PM ^
That was weird . Are they the frigging Olsen twins ? Is this that Old ?
February 10th, 2011 at 4:00 PM ^
"Are you ready to plaaayy?!"
Creepy, yet oddly hilarious.
February 10th, 2011 at 4:02 PM ^
is that alyson hannigan? haha weird... it can't be
but that video is hilarious
February 10th, 2011 at 2:44 PM ^
That's how I read it at first too. Gotta love MGoBlog speak.
February 10th, 2011 at 11:04 PM ^
That's the same thought that went through my head. Now i just feel mislead by the OP's title.
/s
Thanks for the laugh.

I think we will hear some bad news soon.

Yes? Please go on...
February 10th, 2011 at 9:17 AM ^
may or may not graduate from michigan.
February 10th, 2011 at 9:32 AM ^
You sir are a gentleman and a scholar. Perhaps you have many leather bound books? And I have no doubt about the smell of your apartment.
Compelling, and rich.
February 10th, 2011 at 10:05 AM ^
When in rome
February 10th, 2011 at 9:05 AM ^
Another take on Koger's tweet could be that it's someone that came in early last year and redshirted. But since Sam Webb is saying it's a DB and I don't remember if any DBs enrolled early last year my guess would have to be Brown. That's too bad.
February 10th, 2011 at 10:23 AM ^
No defensive players enrolled early back in January 2010.
February 10th, 2011 at 12:52 PM ^
I probably could have looked it up just as easily. If I recall correctly, Greg Brown was looking around pretty late in the process before enrolling early. Maybe this just wasn't the place for him. Best of luck though.
February 10th, 2011 at 9:05 AM ^
This is perplexing.
IF it is Brown, it's either a home-sickness issue or being overwhelmed academically. Otherwise, how do you explain someone leaving 1 month into their college freshman year of college without ever setting foot on the field?
Interesting, to say the least.
February 10th, 2011 at 9:16 AM ^
If memory serves, I believe Brown is a strong student, so I can't imagine that is the issue. I recall some members here who talked about watching him play his senior year and were underwhelmed, noting he got beat consistently by Cheatham Norrils of toledo st. johns. perhaps he is very self aware of his ability and loves the game too much to not be on the field every week the next 4 years.
obviously, like others, I am speculating. best of luck to him (or whoever) as he moves on. Is Brown the recruit his HS coach noted he would let his daughter date? (this and the strong student comment very well may be about courtney avery, i may be remembering his recruitment instead of Brown's).
February 10th, 2011 at 9:42 AM ^
that was Courtney Avery

I've always thought that it has to be hard for these early enrollees. They finish their fall semester of high school and then while all their friends are preparing for spring semester, and all that it entails (senioritis, prom, graduation, etc.) they are off to a college campus to begin a new life. It's so much different than starting in the fall, when you've had more time to prepare mentally and all your friends are going through the same process of starting a post high school life. I can only imagine that it's harder when you're the only early enrollee at a school.
Hopefully this rumor isn't true and Brown isn't transferring. And if it is true, hopefully Brown doesn't file papers yet, goes home, gets his mind right and potentially comes back in the fall in a better situation, if that's even possible.
February 11th, 2011 at 11:20 PM ^
I doubt it's due to homesickness. He's from Fremont, OH, which is about 1.5-2 hrs away from Ann Arbor. Not saying BG and Toledo are big time programs, but they would be the only 2 places of note closer.
February 10th, 2011 at 9:13 AM ^
perhaps he didn't make it into the Porcellians or Phoenix, just the Owl
February 10th, 2011 at 9:18 AM ^
Feel bad whoever leaves and wish him the best.
But not to be callous or anything, but how does this affect APR? I'm not going to like the look of it for a couple of years.
February 10th, 2011 at 9:19 AM ^
After I read all that stuff about how he wants to carry on the tradition of Fremont players at Michigan? Don't get me wrong, I wish the kid well. Maybe he just couldn't handle it, and there's no shame in that, I'm sure Michigan isn't for everyone, but still.
February 10th, 2011 at 9:39 AM ^
How would that affect our APR?
February 10th, 2011 at 10:28 AM ^
Negatively.
February 10th, 2011 at 9:47 AM ^
I read this thread title and was all like "Denard Bobinson NOOOOOOOO wait that's not right... who's 'DB'?"
February 10th, 2011 at 9:52 AM ^
I thought it was Devin Bardner.
February 10th, 2011 at 9:53 AM ^
Well Donovan Barren already went pro.
February 10th, 2011 at 10:08 AM ^
Darryl Btonum

Just thank God it's not Dave Bolk.
