Rodriguez says it's time to move on (AP)

Thu, 24 Jul 2008 15:33:50 PDT

Michigan coach Rich Rodriguez stepped to the podium Thursday for his first appearance at the Big Ten preseason media event and promised to clear up what he called "a little bit of drama going on in the last seven months." That's putting it mildly. Rodriguez's departure from his alma mater West Virginia was messy and acrimonious and ended up in court.

The new coach has been embroiled in controversy since his first day on campus. Then Rich Rodriguez swung and missed on top recruit Terrelle Pryor, who was supposed to be the star quarterback who would lead the Wolverines' new spread option.

On top of all that, one of the few returning starters, offensive lineman Justin Boren, defected for Ohio State, citing the "erosion of family values" within the program, a direct shot at Rodriguez and his new staff. Right now, football season can't arrive fast enough.

When it does, it will likely be a growing season for the Wolverines, who are undergoing a major overhaul as Rodriguez brings widespread change to a program rich in tradition.
