Wolverines overflowing with top quarterbacks
Quote:
But the formula got a little more interesting last week, when Steven Threet, an all-state quarterback from Adrian, transferred from Georgia Tech before even starting his freshman year. He'll enroll at Michigan and, given his reputation, he might challenge Mallett for the starting job in 2008 after sitting out this season because of NCAA transfer rules.
Threet was rated the nation's No. 9 pro-style quarterback last year, giving Michigan two elite QBs for next season, plus Wienke, who still plans to sign in February.
"It's not too much of a big deal to me," Wienke said Saturday. "He's a year older than me. I talked to (U-M) coach (Scot) Loeffler, and I think it's just one more quarterback to compete with. I know what I have to do."
Wienke could redshirt during his first season to put each quarterback in a different year of eligibility.

Hawks pick up QB for 2008 class
By Andy Hamilton
Iowa City Press-Citizen
There was widespread speculation a couple weeks ago that Michigan's head coaching vacancy also could affect Iowa football.
Turns out it has.
There's uncertainty in Ann Arbor -- Michigan has yet to find a replacement for retiring coach Lloyd Carr -- and it helped the Hawkeyes land a quarterback Saturday.
John Wienke, a 6-foot-5, 215-pound lefty from Tuscola, Ill., backed out of his commitment to the Wolverines and joined Iowa's recruiting class.
