UM QB Gutierrez (Merged)

ANN ARBOR, Mich. -- Matt Gutierrez was named Michigan's starting quarterback Monday. The junior from California will start Saturday's home game against Miami of Ohio. <!-- BEGIN INLINE UNIT -->

<!-- END INLINE UNIT -->

While it seemed likely during the preseason that Gutierrez would win the job, coach Lloyd Carr insisted two other quarterbacks -- Clayton Richard and Chad Henne -- had a shot.

Gutierrez is the only one of the three candidates with college experience. After redshirting as a freshman two years ago, he was John Navarre's seldom-used backup last season. Gutierrez, a mobile quarterback with a solid arm, has not lost a game he started since he was a freshman playing junior varsity football. He starred at DeLaSalle Catholic High, the same school that produced former Wolverines star Amani Toomer -- now a wide receiver with the New York Giants.
 
Say, whatever happened to that Gonzalez kid? The last I saw of that guy was the 2001 game we played vs dUMb. He came off the bench for Navarre, the ball was snapped over his head, and Matt Wilhelm landed a solid right foot to his noggin.

:lol:

Wasn't he supposed to be the second coming to the scUMmers?

:scum4:

Who's OSU's QB?

No one knows. Not even yourselves. After your beloved hero Krenzel left the squad, your Bucks are left with an inexperienced and unknown passer (name please?).

Glad to see publication and great interest in Michigan's Quarterbacks in the Buckeye Camp :wink:

Yep, I remember that...got a safety off of that botched shotgun snap. Hopefully we'll get to ourscore Michigan by 23 points in the first half of this year's game, too. I think I have a clip of that on my home computer...

Perhaps you didn't know this, but a similar blurb was published when Justin Zwick was announced as the starter against UC. Despite both coaches comments to the contrary, everyone would have been surprised if it hadn't been Guittierez and Zwick.

Apparently you don't follow recruiting at all. LLLoyd and the rest of the scUM coaches were ready to give Zwick (the elusive name) a hummer if he came to Ann Arbor three years ago.

Still living in the past? Last time I checked, it's the year 2004. Your 2003-2004 National Championship run is NCAA history. Michigan went 11-0 in 1997 to win the NC also, but never had that perfect season after. Let's see how your Bucks fare this year in the Big 10. You got tickets to OSU-UM game this year? If so, you'll see me on the field celebrating with Gutierrez and Co. in a post-victory (and another Big 10 Championship) celebration !
