Personnel
David Molk practiced in pads yesterday. He will start against Penn State on Saturday. David Moosman will move to right guard, with Perry Dorrestein and Mark Huyge competing for the right tackle spot.
Tate Forcier and Carlos Brown should be fully recovered from all their injuries. Minor's injury is still nagging, but he should be healthy enough to play (as he has been despite the injury in the past couple weeks). The running back starter will depend on Minor's overall health (they'll know after tomorrow) and what play the coordinators want to start the game with. Minor's physical presence will be important against a team like Penn State.
JT Floyd feels better, after he suffered through the flu last week. He should be able to play this week. Troy Woolfolk will remain at corner, where they like him better overall, unless there are injuries to the safeties (Jeremy Van Slyke and Vladimir Emilien are the primary backups at safety now). Boubacar Cissoko'...

Unverified Voracity Pulls Around
Programming note: the Martin news and AD search was clearly more important than slapping up half of the Delaware State UFR, so both halves will land tomorrow.
A couple AD clarifications. The thing about Dave Brandon politicizing the AD position was not meant to suggest a staunch anything couldn't run the department—Bo, good God. The thing is: Brandon almost made a run for...
Monday Night News
Just a few topics of interest this late Monday evening.
• As expected, center David Molk has been cleared to practice this week and is likely to at least be in uniform this weekend for Penn State.
• RB Brandon Minor will also likely be fine for Penn State. His status for Delaware State last weekend was a game-time scratch. Just a precautionary measure.
• Same can be...
Q&A With Zombie Nation
We're crossing enemy lines this week with a Q&A session with Penn State blogger Mike from Zombie Nation. We decided to do this one home-and-home style with both of us fielding each others questions about this week's match up in Ann Arbor.
Here's Mike's answers to my completely off the cuff questions. Enjoy!

Michigan - Penn State Preview
MAIZE OUT!If you're going to the game, wear your maize shirt over your sweatshirt. If it might rain, take 3 dollars to Target and buy a yellow poncho. Seriously people...let's make this maize out thing real!
I don't usually dive into a full-fledged preview of up-coming games. But this week feels like it's worthy of a really good look at the matchups and what I think will be...
Upon Further Review: Defense vs Delaware State
Personnel notes: Um, well, there were a lot of them. The most interesting things from my perspective: Sagesse reclaimed his spot as the backup NT, and Kovacs was the deep safety whenever Michigan went to eight-man fronts, which was frequently. Kenny Demens and Brandon Smith didn't even see the field, IIRC. And James Rogers moved to corner.
On with the very boring show:

Upon Further Review: Offense vs Delaware State
Personnel notes: Everyone gets in. One correction from Monday's game column: the second-string center in this game was Tim McAvoy, not Rocko Khoury.

An obligatory look at Michigan
About the University The university was founded in 1817 in Detroit as the Catholepistemiad, or University of Michigania, about 20 years before the Michigan Territory officially became a state. The university moved to Ann Arbor in 1837 onto 40 acres of what is now known as Central Campus. So Michigan (the university) was around before Michigan (the state)?!? You just blew my mind...

Hart's final-game fumbles were a cause for concern
Mike Hart's tenure at the University of Michigan was long and illustrious. Yet everything the Wolverines' record-setting running back accomplished during four seasons and 43 games nearly was overshadowed by his final appearance and two of his 1,015 career carries.
