ANN ARBOR, Mich. -- Michigan All-America running back Blake Corum said his surgically repaired left knee has gotten strong enough that he's been cleared to run on an anti-gravity treadmill next week.

Corum said Thursday that he is "100%" sure he will play in the season-opening game on Sept. 2 against East Carolina

Corum tore a meniscus and sprained a ligament in his left knee against Illinois on Nov. 19. After playing sparingly against Ohio State, he sat out when the Wolverines won the Big Ten title and advanced to the College Football Playoff semifinals.
