Rich Rodriguez Press Conference: Injury Updates

Michigan coach Rich Rodriguez gave an injury update in his press conference today, detailing who the Wolverines can expect for Saturday's game at Indiana.

Denard Robinson has a bruised knee and might be limited today but should do everything on Tuesday.  He is expected to play on Saturday.

Fitzgerald Toussaint, who has had problems staying healthy his entire Michigan career, now has a shoulder problem.  He was coming back from a knee issue and was out all last year due to injury. Fitz had two carries and a touchdown against BGSU. 

Michael Shaw sprained his knee and is day-to-day. 

Tate Forcier is fine; he just got a helmet to the quad.

The coaches are optimistic that both Carvin Johnson and Brandon Herron will play at Indiana on Saturday.

Team News:

• Coach Rodriguez considers both Tate Forcier and Devin Gardner o be backups for Robinson.
• The true freshman CBs have been a pleasant surprise so far.
• Michigan has played 13 true freshman this year, most of them on defense.
• Courtney Avery is probably going to change his jersey number to No. 5.  Michigan got called for a penalty for having two No.9s on the field against BGSU.
• Indiana has good WRs and will be a challenge for the young Michigan CBs.
• Indiana has only played three games and might be the healthiest team in the Big Ten right now.
• It's Big Ten season and "everything gotta get cranked up a notch"
