Eleven Warriors - A Buckeye Sports Blog

In what Jack Park says is an unprecedented decision, former Michigan o-liner Justin Boren is transferring to play for Jim Tressel’s Buckeyes.

I’m sure the Michigan faithful will downplay the move but it has to sting a bit to see a legacy transfer to the Evil Empire. Justin sounds excited to have a chance to win:
