When Blake Corum went down against Illinois last year, it sucked the air out of the Big House. He was arguably the most talented player on the field and a huge reason for Michigan’s success. The team knew going forward that in order to win down the stretch, everyone was going to have to play at their absolute best.
With the Wolverines coming up short of a national title, it was on everybody’s mind if they would see Corum in Michigan jersey again. When Corum announced on The Rich Eisen Show he would be returning for his senior season, coaches and fans alike knew they were going to have all the pieces needed for another championship run.
