Michigan football running back Blake Corum said that he would be taking part in practices next week and is 100 percent ahead of the 2023 season. 

Injuries are probably my least favorite thing about sports. If Blake Corum wouldn’t have gotten hurt last season, Michigan football might have won the national title.

I’m confident the Wolverines would have at least beaten TCU. With Corum, I don’t see all the goalline issues happening, and that, probably more than anything, cost Michigan football in the Fiesta Bowl last season.

At any rate, the good news is that Corum decided to come back to play for Michigan football for one more season. He didn’t take part in spring ball but he told the website, the 33rd team, that he’s 100 percent and will be a full-go when summer practice resumes this week.

"“We don’t start team workouts until next Friday, but boy I can’t wait,” Corum said. “I cannot wait until next Friday, because I’m really like, full-go. I don’t have to be hesitant, (or worry) that I can’t do this or can’t do that. I’m watching my teammates or things like that. I’m back. I’m really in it now. So I cannot wait for summer workouts. My knee is feeling stronger than ever. I am feeling stronger than ever. The other day, I started cutting for the first time. Getting my cuts back, I’m going to make a lot of people miss this year.”"

Blake Corum is 100 percent

Corum said that his knee is feeling stronger than ever and that he’s going to “make a lot of people miss this year.”

I believe that and I’m just glad we’ll get the privilege of watching him in a Michigan football uniform again. I was worried after he get hurt against Illinois that might be it for his time as a college football player.

It surprised me that he didn’t declare for the NFL draft. Yet, Corum is committed to winning a national championship and another season like last year, minus the injury, will help his draft stock.

Michigan football fans are lucky and now that Corum is 100 percent, the rest of the Big Ten should be worried, because my bet is that he comes back with a vengeance.
