Editors Note: Today is a little light on actual Michigan Football news. (The basketball team plays Bowling Green tonight!)
At 7:00 tonight this weeks Michigan's injury report will come out and expect to see Martin and Mouton probable and Taylor Lewan and Mike Shaw questionable. Hopefully Fitz Toussaint didn't hurt himself in practice and can go if needed.
With that said, here is a look at how a few Michigan transfers are doing at their new schools....
As a Michigan fan we can hardly believe why anyone would ever want to leave Ann Arbor and the most storied college football program ever. Sadly, some guys just don't "buy in" or think they will get more playing time at another institution. There are players every year that make the decision to leave but rarely do they become successful like Justin Fargas or Ryan Mallett. We know Ryan is doing well Arkansas and Boren is starting for Ohio State, but let's catch up on guys not on SportsCenter too often:
Sam McGuffie, RB Rice Owls: Sam had the best game of his career two weeks ago against Tulsa. Where he ran for 178 yards on 22 carries and scored a touchdown. In 2010 he has had 149 attempts and 642 yards with 3 touchdowns. He also has had 32 catches for 275 yards and 1 TD. Sam seems to be getting better as the year goes on, but you can't say that for the Rice Owls who have only won 2 games this year.
Let's hope Sam hasn't received any concussion this year and still has a successful college career in front of him.
Steven Threet, QB Arizona State: Trick or Threet would be a good slogan for the Sun Devils this year. While leading the ASU offense, Steve is 207-333 with 2530 passing yards with 18 touchdowns. The problem is, he has thrown 16 picks and been sacked 22 times. After starting the year 2-0, ASU has gone 2-6 in their last 8 games and will have to beat UCLA and Arizona to get bowl eligible. Steve is currently sharing first team reps with sophomore quarterback Brock Osweiler during the bye week.
Threet was also named to the PAC 10 All Academic team this week with a 3.82 grade-point average in general studies.
Toney Clemons, WR Colorado: Toney has had a nice season for the Buffalo's. He has had 40 catches for 426 yards and 2 touchdowns. He is the second leading receiver for Colorado who is just 4-6 on the year and with out a head coach that was just fired two weeks ago. Clemons had a good game this past Saturday as he had four catches for 55 yards, including a 26-yard touchdown, as Colorado defeated Iowa State, 34-14.
Safety Vlad Emilien who recently transferred from Michigan will be joining Toney next year at Colorado as they enter PAC 12 country.

3.82 in general studies. lol. I'm sure he's a smart guy but a 2.7 in Electrical Engineering at Michigan is MUCH harder to get than a 3.82 in general studies.
But he is play football fulltime so good job keeping up with the school work as well.
