Football Returns. Here’s Proof (Photos)
Most eyes were on #7, that’s QB Devin Gardner of course What a great day and I couldn’t resist swinging by to check out the first practice of the year out at Schembechler Hall. Big news? QB Nick Sheridan is hanging up the cleats and Rodriguez advised he intends pursue coaching. He’s got a semester or so of work left and I guess he can’t technically be an assistant until he finishes up. Sheridan was watching practice today and I’m going to try to do an interview in the next couple weeks. Stay tuned. Anyway, here’s a few photos from the big day. Rodriguez spoke to the media for about 10 minutes and eventually we got to head outside to watch 4 “periods” (5-8) of practice: Joe Schad of ESPN interviews Ryan Van Bergen Fred Jackson coaching up the backs Calvin Magee works with the backs as well Denard Robinson warms up. Rodriguez admitted that they’ll be doing “different things” with #16, “moving him around.” RR hinted that this would be at WR. The guys wearing blue are the defense. Here the corners working on getting low. That’s Ricky Leach (holding his lucky blue jacket) along with some former players. I know this is what you want:

Skeptical
I see that the News and Free Press are reporting that Nick Sheridan suffered some type of serious leg injury on Tuesday. I sure hope they verified this with the proper sources. They each use the term “apparently” in their headline–does that excuse them if this turns out to be untrue? Update 3/26: Both papers dropped the “apparently” from their latest updates. Angelique has a source close to the program backing up that Sheridan will be out for the spring. Update II: Rodriguez confirms Sheridan’s out 4-6 weeks, minor fracture. No, not the end of the world but if anyone thinks this is good because Forcier might get more snaps, it’s not. That’s almost as bad as the take that Michigan would have been better off in the NIT this season to get more games.
