  • Jason Forcier is planning on returning to the University of Michigan. After transferring to Stanford a couple years ago, Forcier is hoping to go to grad school at U-M. He hasn’t been accepted yet, but if he is, there is some speculation that he could rejoin the football team. He has one year of eligibility remaining, but whether or not he could play would be left up to the NCAA. The rule that allowed players to transfer without sitting out a year if it was for grad school no longer exists, but apparently the NCAA can make rulings on a case-by-case basis. I don’t know if Forcier would want to rejoin the team, as he didn’t comment on it, but just having him around his brother, Tate, would be a good thing. If he was eligible to play, that would be gravy in my mind.
  • Ryan Van Bergen, who was carted off the field during the scrimmage on Saturday, should be fine by the time spring drills begin.
  • Toney Clemons is going to visit Colorado.
  • The Knicks signed former Michigan center and D-League All-Star Chris Hunter. Courtney Sims was recently signed to a 10-day contract by the Knicks, so it’s nice to see that some former Wolverines are making it to the NBA.
  • MGoBlue put up a page where you can vote for your Michigan NHL All-Star Team.
  • Hasheem Thabeet is going pro.
  • Isiah Thomas is Florida International’s new head coach.
  • It looks like Braylon Edwards is going to be traded to the Giants.
