Dispatch
OSU football: Boren's transfer sure to add spice to rivalry
Wednesday, April 23, 2008 3:27 AM
By Tim May
The Columbus Dispatch
Offensive lineman Justin Boren has decided to transfer from Michigan to Ohio State, and OSU football historian Jack Park thinks it is an unprecedented move. Citing disenchantment with the new Michigan coaching staff of Rich Rodriguez, Boren -- a sophomore starter in 2007 -- left the Wolverines last month. Coach Jim Tressel confirmed for The Dispatch last night that Boren, who attended Pickerington North, intends to play for the Buckeyes after sitting out the 2008 season because of NCAA transfer rules.
Cont...
Quote:
"It's exciting to be coming back home to central Ohio," Boren, who just finished the spring semester at Michigan, said in a statement through Tressel. "I am looking forward to the chance to help the Buckeyes continue their excellence in any way I can."

It's nice to see this in the Buckeye Football forum. Never hurts to add "All Big Ten" talent to the interior line.

RR will make UM better, but they will get worse first
One of my employees who is a Michigan grad was at their spring practice/scrimmage. Of course he lead off our conversation about how much better in shape the lineman looked this Spring than last. Fine. He then proceeded to admit that he was shocked how often and how loudly Coach Rodriguez and his assistants were dropping F-bombs all afternoon. There were kids there watching too.
After a few minutes I had my employee's opinion changed about not only why Boren left, but also how the Michigan blue bloods aren't going to like this guy in 2 or 3 years unless he has miraculously brought them a BigTen title by then.
Boren...probably with his father agreeing...saw the foul mouthed RR regime as a sign that Michigan has sunken to a new low and sold themselves and their so-called tradition of doing "things right" for a big name flavor of the month.
suck it, michigan
