Brian Kelly Press Conference Michigan Week 2019


Some important notes from Brian Kelly's press conference going into Michigan Saturday night.

-RB Jafar Armstrong will be featured in the offense and the game plan with a "prominent role."

-DB Shaun Crawford is recovering so well from the broken elbow that he's involved in everything from "7-on-7's to contact drills."  He should play depending on his comfort level.

-The team had 4 days off after weight training last Thursday.  It appears the majority of the roster is as healthy as you would like it to be midseason going into a big game vs Michigan.

-Coaches were all on the road recruiting last weekend while the players were off.

-The offense formationally is looking to give different looks and moving WR Chase Claypool around after doing some self scouting over the break with help from Pro Football Focus with analytics.

-Working on non-verbal cadence for QB Ian Book as he enters what should be a loud atmosphere in Michigan Stadium and how it compares to Georgia.  Execution will need to be at a high level with no distractions.

-CB Donte Vaughn will play Saturday night and this will be his 4th game played on the season.  If he wants to be granted a 5th year in 2020 he will have to NOT play another game this season after Michigan.

-The offense will be looking to move the ball at times with the running game with senior Tony Jones Jr. leading the way.  They need to be patient with the running game and let it develop.
