The Hits Keep Coming: Blake Countness To Transfer

ESPN

Blake has graduated and decided not to spend his 5th year as a Wolverine.   Wayne Lyons is now on campus and Blake struggled last year as Michigan moved to a more of a man press coverage model.    That is a hit to a secondary that was set up to be special with Lyons, The Count, J. Lewis and of course Peppers.  

I guess Blake saw himself as the odd man out and will look to play his 5th year somewhere else. I'm sort of sad after hearing this news, I was always high on The Count and wanted to see him play in what could be a "special defense" next year.   He deserves to win.   Good Luck Blake!

Sorry to see him go, but he was really terrible last year. Time and time and time again he would get beat to the inside on 3rd down or in the red zone for TD's. I understand that at times the defense requires you to give away a certain cut to your help on defense but these weren't those times. he was over-matched time and time again. We won't miss his performance and he wasn't a good fit for the current scheme.
