Rich Rodriguez today said that Center David Molk would return to practice this week and might play this weekend against Penn State (3:30 ABC): "How he feels after each and every practice will determine, really, what role he can take, whether he can be starting, whether he can play the whole time, in and out, just what he can tolerate," Wolverines head coach Rich Rodriguez said. "Medically, everything has been cleared for him to go to practice. It is a matter of how comfortable he feels with that, getting back in action.
"He hasn't done much football-wise. He did a little last week, but nothing with full pads."
Molk is considered Michigan's best offensive lineman and is at the important center position in the spread offense. Moosman who has been filling in for Molk struggled early on with poor snaps (he did much better against Iowa and DSU) and will move back to his regular position at right guard.
Having Molk back will also help the running game which will be welcoming back from injury Carlos Brown (concussion) and Brandon Minor (ankle and 63-6 DIAA opponent).
Michigan will need to be healthy and play smart football if they are going to beat the #13 ranked Nittany Lions who haven't won in Ann Arbor since 1996.
