Expanding on coach Jim Harbaugh's defense of Michigan's recruiting practices, Wolverines recruiting coordinator and linebackers coach Chris Partridge told ESPN on Saturday that he and the staff have been up front about expectations.
"You have to continue to work," Partridge said. "You can't just shut things down when you get a scholarship offer. You still have to hold up your end of the bargain academically and athletically."
Harbaugh and his program have come under recent fire after recruits Erik Swenson and Rashad Weaver complained they weren't given proper notice that they would no longer be a part of Michigan's 2016 class.
