Mallett staying: At UM - at least for now

ORLANDO, Fla. - Will he stay or will he go?

Michigan freshman quarterback Ryan Mallett answered that question yesterday, saying he would like to remain a Wolverine next season.

Mallett's status for next year had been in doubt since the hiring of West Virginia's Rich Rodriguez as the new head coach at the University of Michigan last week.

"That don't matter," Mallett said. "That don't matter because we're down here at the bowl game having fun right now. We're trying to beat up on these Gators right here."

Cont'd

Have fun and kick some ass. I'd like to see the Gators go down in flames. The Big 10 needs the bowl win.

We'll see how it pans out if QB coach Loeffler moves on (a strong possibility).
Asked if he wants to be in a Michigan uniform next season, Mallett replied, "I can say I want to be. I can say that, yeah."
This sounds a bit hesitant to me, like someone who loves UM but perhaps not the new version.

Unless he develops 4.5 speed and learns the option run, Young Mallet is a pocket passer. Anyone that wants to speculate about the potential for a spread offense type QB coming in will certainly compete for that job. I'm not giving up on Pryor yet, let's see what happens in their Bowl game.

Whats funny is Mallett would have probably transfered if Debord had stayed on. Mallett didnt like the old regime that much! During his recruitment Debord said they were going to open up the offense for him and it never happened.
