Tate Forcier leaves Michigan
Tate Forcier has officially left Michigan, leaving behind a roller coaster ride with the team after 2 years as a Wolverine.
I like Tate, he seems to be a good kid.
I had the pleasure of meeting him here in Jacksonville before he was sent home prior to the Gator Bowl game on New Year's Day.
That's what makes his message that :Michigan gave up on me" so upsetting.
I think Michigan did the right thing, he wasn't getting his school work done, and at Michigan, if you don't go to class and keep up your grades, then you're gone.
I wish the best for Tate, he's a very talented kid, as he showed during his Freshman season with the Wolverines, starting all 12 games, and giving us a game to remember as he led Michigan to a come from behind victory over Notre Dame with seconds left in the 4th quarter.
I think he can be a big time QB, but he needs to get himself together, do his work, both on and off the field, and he will play in the NFL one day.

Greg Mattison is new Michigan defensive coordinator
Through sources on Twitter, the Michigan Wolverines have hired Greg Mattison to be the Wolverines defensive coordinator.
The Baltimore Ravens announced the promotion of secondary coach Chuck Pagano as their new defensive coordinator, and that Mattison has taken the Michigan job.
The 61 year old Mattison returns to Michigan , where he was the defensive coordinator from 1995-1996.
New Michigan head coach Brady Hoke has ties with Mattison, first at Western Michigan, where Mattison was the D-Coordinator, and Hoke was the defensive line coach, from 1984-85-86, and at Michigan in 95-96.
The Ravens were #3 in the NFL in total defense in 2009, and #10 in 2010 under Mattison.
