The article mentions that it comes apart easily into six pieces.

It's going on display somewhere on campus ... the Dispatch did an article about it last week. He's going to use it, somehow, to raise money for his research projects at OSU.

Tate Forcier is transferring. As soon as Hoke said he's big on accountability including the academics I knew Tate was in big trouble.

Didn't he announce that the same day Hoke was hired?

[AustinWolv]

No

[steelerfan]

No

Hmm. Ok.

I seem to remember getting an ESPN text about it last week and seeing something on TV about him making it public on the day Hoke was hired to take a parting shot at the program. Guess I imagined that.

EDIT: The exact text I got last Wednesday was, "Michigan backup QB Tate Forcier (academically ineligible for Gator Bowl) is no longer with program"

Lol. These pics, while not quite as good as the Bama ones last year, kinda make me hope an Alabama school wins every year.

He didn't transfer then. He flunked out and pretty much had quit trying prior to that before Hoke was hired, even though he was technically still on the team.
He absolutely did not take any shots at Hoke. This stuff was going on before Hoke.

Understood, that's why I dug up the text - to re-read what it said. I didn't say, or mean to imply, that he took shots at Hoke. What I heard on TV was something along the lines of it being a classless move on his part to make it public knowledge on the day Hoke was hired when Forcier would have known this long before.

My misunderstanding was that he said he was transferring last week when he was just no longer part of the program at that point (which does lead to transferring).

Some rumors on the Iowa situation....I guess they did 100 reps of squats at 245 lbs. and 100 reps of bench press.....which was the cause of the problem.
