Rich Rodriguez Press Conference Injury Updates

Denard has a bruised knee and might be limited today but should do everything on Tuesday.  He is expected to play on Saturday.

Fitzgerald Toussaint who has been injured his entire Michigan career now has a shoulder problem.  He was coming back from a knee issue and was out all last year due to injury.   Fitz had two carries and a touchdown against BGSU. 

Michael Shaw sprained his knee and is day to day. 

Tate is fine, he just got a helmet to the quad.

The coaches are optimistic that both Carvin Johnson and Brandon Herron will play at IU on Saturday.

Team News:

  • RR considers both Tate and Devin the #2 QB to Denard.
  • Pleasant surprise has been the true freshman CB's so far.
  • Michigan has played 13 true freshman this year most of them on defense.
  • Courtney Avery is probably going to change to #5.  Michigan got called for penalty for having 2 #9's on the field against BGSU.
  • IU has good WR's and will be a challenge for the young Michigan CB's.
  • IU has only played 3 games and might be the healthiest team in the Big Ten right now.
  • It's Big Ten season and "everything gotta get cranked up a notch"
