He didn't transfer just because he got benched. The staff made him play through injury and he didn't necessarily get along with the staff there. You could argue the same thing but players like Shea Patterson whose potential got ruined makes me think it is more of a Jim Harbaugh thing than a Joe Milton thing. He also stuck it out for the season and didn't quit a day and a half after getting benched. This is all assumptions but unless there was some big behind-the-scenes fallout between him and the staff, I just think Heupel wouldn't want a quitter.Joe Milton got benched at Michigan and transferred……to UT……and was the starting QB for Heupel…..
Dude, seriously. The kid that took Milton's job isn't exactly lighting the world on fire. But they are 3-0. Milton transferred because he wasn't going to play like most transfer QBs. It is also highly doubtful they MADE him play through injuries because they can then be sued. Especially if they put a possible pro career at risk. That's just some bs. If Harbaugh was doing crap like that, they wouldn't be able to recruit. That stuff is fired for cause worthy. Would be Michigan's way out. Nothing wrong with wanting to play in Milton's case. But reality is he was probably asked to transfer because they saw the writing on the wall, and went and got another QB that will eventually take over for McNamaraHe didn't transfer just because he got benched.

They are Michigan. They won't not recruit well despite who is the coachDude, seriously. The kid that took Milton's job isn't exactly lighting the world on fire. But they are 3-0.

He completed the season, school year, and his degree then left "professionally". He didn't pitch a tantrum and quit 3 games into a season after throwing 3 picks and being ineffective against his teams 2 FBS opponents.Joe Milton got benched at Michigan and transferred……to UT……and was the starting QB for Heupel…..
