Michigan QB Tells Twitter He’s Leaving The Wolverines
Michigan Wolverine QB Wilton Speight announced via Instagram and Twitter Sunday that he will be leaving the team.
His instagram said the following,
"Thank you, Michigan.
These past 4 years have been nothing short of spectacular. Enrolling in January of 2014 as a kid from Virginia i didn’t know what to expect. Four years later i leave a Michigan Man. The amazing memories with my teammates, playing under the best coaches in America, and enjoying everything that this wonderful university and town have to offer- what a ride.
To the fans that stuck with us through thick and thin— thank you.
To Coach Hoke for giving a kid with no offers a chance— thank you.
To Coach Harbaugh for coming in and making me a better man and a better quarterback. For understanding this decision of mine and always having my back no matter what— thank you.
I don’t know where next will be, and I’ll use these next four weeks to figure that out. i’m excited to keep pursuing my dreams in a new jersey, but will forever root for the boys wearing the winged helmet. Go blue!"
Right now the Wolverines have an 8-4 record after losing to their rivals Ohio State 31-20 Saturday.
