Michigan football freshman running back Zach Charbonnet enrolled in school early and has been with the team since January, but won't play during spring practice this year due to a minor knee injury.
Coach Jim Harbaugh told reporters Monday that the running back from California, who was U-M's top incoming offensive recruit this year, is recovering well but won't be on the field with the offense over the next month.
"Zach came in with a procedure we needed to get done. He needed to get a scope for a meniscus. It was very low, everything was taken out and it was designed for what would be best for him long-term, to go ahead and get that done here and not participate in spring ball," Harbaugh said.
