Wednesday Quick Hits: Fitzgerald Toussaint Out with Fractured Shoulder
Share
Leave a Comment- The reason Jason Forcier isn’t enrolling in grad school and won’t be playing football for Michigan is because he had to be in a grad program that Stanford didn’t offer. That and the fact that he started all the paperwork so late in the process is why things didn’t work out. Even so, Forcier plans on staying in Ann Arbor to serve as a mentor for his brother Tate. Jason has already set up a meeting between Tate and Drew Henson, hoping that the former Michigan quarterback can give advice to the new Michigan quarterback.
- Fitzgerald Toussaint has a fractured shoulder and will be out for an extended period of time, perhaps the rest of fall camp. If that happens, he will probably be guaranteed to redshirt. That is what will likely happen anyways, but if he misses over two weeks of practice, a lot would have to happen for him to see the field.
- Donovan Warren is day-to-day after spraining his knee on Monday.
- Ricky Barnum, Thomas Gordon, Mark Moundros, and walk-on Zac Johnson are also day-to-day.
- Denard Robinson scored four touchdowns during Monday’s practice. Two were in the air and two were on the ground.
- It seems like the defense is giving up quite a few big plays. Just over the last two days, there has been a 25-yard pass from Tate Forcier to LaTerryal Savoy, a 45-yard run by Kevin Grady, runs of 68 and 72 yards by Denard Robinson, and a 58-yard pass from Forcier to James Rogers.
- Defensive coordinator Greg Robinson will be on the field during games.
- Drew Henson was at practice on Monday and Tuesday.
- This fall’s walk-on tryout for students will be on September 16.
- Wolverine Liberation Army took Jim Carty to task for a post he made about the Justin Feagin situation on his blog.
- Several videos featuring Devin Gardner, Ricardo Miller, Jeremy Jackson, and Larry Foote have been uploaded to YouTube. Local high school players visited the Lions’ practice yesterday, which is what the videos are from.
