Shorthanded Michigan falls to Rutgers for first time in program history
Piscataway, N.J. — As Michigan jumped back into Big Ten play, it faced a less than ideal situation.
No Frankie Collins. No Brandon Johns Jr. No Terrance Williams II. The three key pieces of the rotation were among five Wolverines who didn’t make the trip to Rutgers due to “medical reasons,” according to a Michigan spokesperson.
On top of that, sophomore guard Zeb Jackson didn’t travel due to “private, personal reasons,” leaving Michigan even thinner in the backcourt, with less depth on the bench and with 10 available scholarship players.
