Though we would like to emphasize that this is just a rumor at this point, it’s a rumor that will make Michigan fans sick to their stomach.

The rumor (there are multiple versions) floating around is that Michigan freshman RB Zach Charbonnet has an injured knee that could force him to miss time, including the Wolverines upcoming game vs. Wisconsin.

From what we have read and heard is that Charbonnet could potentially play (limited) vs. Wisconsin or he could miss up to six weeks.

The original rumor (as far as we can tell) came from Kyle Lamb of Rivals and says Zach could miss a few weeks.

What I've heard is Zach Charbonnet is being scoped a second time to correct unfinished work from his spring procedure. Would likely miss a few weeks. This is not an attempt to troll. That kind of thing is not my cup of tea. Especially not reporting things such as injuries. — Kyle Lamb (@kylamb8) September 18, 2019

Hopefully, this is all a bunch of hogwash but we will know the truth pretty soon.
