Boren states...
"I have great trouble accepting that those family values have eroded in just a few months. " ... That I am unable to perform under these circumstances at the level I expect of myself, and my teammates and Michigan fans deserve, is why I have made the decision to leave."

Looks like Rodriguez's approach to coaching isn't what Michigan players are used to. I think this may be the start of a few disgruntled players who are not happy about the attitude change around Spring Practices. Every coach has his own style, and Rodriguez has obviously had much success with his coaching style. However, many players liked Lloyd for his laid back style and division of responsibilities to the players.

Also a tidbit of information. To my knowledge, this leaves only 1 starting offensive lineman from last year on the team for '08. looks like our Defense is going to get an opportunistic chance to prove themselves early against a nationally recognized Michigan team.
