Michigan Friday: Don't Read Any Headlines Today

For all you April Fools Jokesters lets get all the FAKE headlines out of they way first:

• Tressel Resigns
• Tressel suspended for the year
• Denard breaks his ankle
• Zack Novak is entering the NBA Draft

Does that pretty much cover it?

On to more Michigan information:

• Brian Kelly confirms that Michigan will wear "throw back jerseys" for the first night game at the Big House:  But yeah, we're going to have throwback uniforms. As they will. I can tell you what theirs look like: They have a block 'M' on them, and a number, and a number on their helmet. How's that? The adidas people at Michigan are going to be (ticked) at me."

• A Mgoblog poster (and probably a HS coach) attended practice yesterday and has detailed write up here.   There is quite a lot of good information in there about Big Will and Q on the Dline, the secondary, and linebackers.

• Information on recent A2 visitor and Cleveland offensive lineman Kyle Dobson from the Plain Dealer:  During a recent unofficial visit to Michigan, Cleveland Heights coach Jeff Rotsky said Michigan coaches told him they wanted Dodson to be a cornerstone in what they hope will be a revived running game. Rotsky said Ohio State has offered a scholarship, pending Dodson clearing an academic hurdle. Dodson also has visited Alabama and Auburn and has summer trips planned to Penn State and Notre Dame. His other offers include Michigan State, Illinois, Wisconsin, West Virginia and Pittsburgh. Florida has expressed interest.

• TomVH catches up with two recent visitors: Jonah Pirsig and AJ Williams.

• Former Michigan visitor from Wisconsin LB Vince Biegel seems to be down to Wisconsin and BYU.
