ANN ARBOR, Mich. –  Michigan's Denard Robinson has electrified crowds and broken records as a quarterback. Now he's winding down his college career in a way that could prepare him to play in the NFL. When the 20th-ranked Wolverines wrap up the regular season Saturday at No. 4 Ohio State, he likely will see more time at running back or receiver than QB. Changing positions doesn't bother him a bit. "I'll do whatever it takes for the team," Robinson said after helping Michigan beat Iowa 42-17 Saturday. "If I can go, I'm going to go and not hold back." Robinson was held off the field for two-plus weeks with nerve damage in his right elbow. The injury limits his ability to grip and throw the ball, but it hasn't slowed his fast-moving feet.

Key:

  • Aggregate Sentiment is meant to be an indicator of an individual's overall sentiment.
  • The Mean is meant to be an indicator of an individual's average comment sentiment.
  • The Standard Deviation, when there are enough quotes, will indicate an individual's consistency of sentiment (i.e. a Standard Deviation of 0 would mean they were very consistent in their sentiment and 1 would mean they were very inconsistent).

Note that quote stats are likely to be meaningless beyond the aggregate score due to the tiny sample size. However, they are always provided just in case you find something useful there.
