Wolverine Wednesday: Great With a Capital G

That is how Jimmy described (in a Bo style hat) the first practice of the Jim Harbaugh era at Michigan.  Of course he came from the Bo coaching school and won't give the media much. 

For example, the spring roster had Ross Douglas moving back to CB (from RB) and Brady Pallante moving to FB (from DT).  He said, nothing is written in stone right now and take all that information with a grain of salt. 

He also mentioned that Sione Houma, Khalid Hill and Drake Johnson are not expected to participate in spring practice.

Coach also thought the team is in good shape: “Yes. Team’s in very good shape. Kevin Tolbert and his staff did a very nice job and the fellas did a nice job. You could see that throughout practice that the team’s in good condition and that gives us a fighting chance.”

Speaking of shape, Mgoblog over looks at the spring roster to find if any weight gain jumps out.  Here is my take:

  • Ty Isaac is up 15 pounds and now at 240.  Positive
  • Derrick Green has added 14 pounds to 234.  TBD (looked good in the video below)
  • AJ Williams is up 25 pounds to 285.  TBD - He is more of a tackle now then a TE.
  • Ian Butting up 16 to 243.  Positive
  • Jehu Chesson and Mo Ways up 10 pounds each.  Both Positive
  • LTT is up 19 pounds to 309.  I assume that is positive
  • Willie Henry is up 18, Pewee up 11 and Bryan Mone is up 13.  Probably Positive
  • Jared Wangler is up 11 to 230 and now can play LB.


In the video below, my favorite shot is Jimmy working with the QB's.
