Michigan Friday: Big House Briefs

• Thanks to reader Richard: Mike Barwis has opened a new training facility in Michigan. Here is a link to his new blog.

• Gus Johnson seems to be leaving CBS and may be headed to Fox/Big Ten Network. That would be a huge win for the Big Ten. Gus has made it known he is a Michigan fan, and I would love to hear him do some Michigan football games.

• TomVH reports that Michigan has offered 2012 Illinois DT Jaleel Johnson.

• Michigan's incoming freshman Trey Burke went from the future point guard to potential starting point guard, and he hasn't even tried on his Michigan jersey yet.   

• Ryan Mallett's dad said that Lloyd Carr told Ryan and family to look at other options once RR got the job at Michigan. I find that hard to believe.

• Steven Threet is still suffering from the concussions he suffered last year. He is helping the team as a student assistant for ASU.

• 5-star RB and soft verbal to OSU Bri'onte Dunn is expected to be in Ann Arbor today for a visit.
