Coach Luke Fickell discusses UC football's first scrimmage of training camp Fletcher Page, fpage@enquirer..com
Michigan coach Jim Harbaugh offered his side of the James Hudson transfer story on Tuesday in response to Cincinnati coach Luke Fickell's stance that Michigan wasn't helpful during Hudson's eligibility waiver process.
“Michigan did not block the waiver," Harbaugh told reporters. "We wish James Hudson well. But that is not in the coach’s hands. That is not in the university’s hands. It’s not in his hands. The way the process works right now, those waivers are decided by the NCAA.”
Three UC transfers – wide receiver Blue Smith (previously at Ohio State), linebacker Darrian Beavers (UConn) and safety Kyriq McDonald (Alabama) – received the waiver earlier this month and can play this season.
