Packers, Now the Wolverines: Paulus to Michigan?
Greg Paulus hasn’t felt this much love…well…since high school.
Paulus, who came off the bench last year for the Duke Blue Devils basketball team, has been drawing interest from the Green Bay Packers and apparently now, a college team is gaining some interest in him.
We all know how “great” the Michigan football team did last year under new coach Rich Rodriguez and they’re looking for any spark to help revive their program. They’ve now contacted Paulus to see if he’d be willing to play one season under center for the Wolverines. With their quarterback situation uncertain at the moment, this experiment might actually work.
Michigan’s current QB options include two freshman and Nick Sheridan, who is recovering from a fracture in his lower left leg. If Paulus does choose to go to Michigan, this could either help or hurt his status in the eyes of the pros. One good season and he’ll be highly touted, but one bad season could also have people saying “I told you he couldn’t hang.”
If I were Paulus, I’d give it a shot. What does he have to lose? It’s not everyday you get to revive a career you gave up.
