The USFL started its regular season this past weekend, and there are some noteworthy items for former Wolverines.

Former Michigan cornerback Channing Stribling, playing for the Philadelphia Stars, made 2 tackles, 1 interception (returned for 32 yards), and a league-leading 3 pass breakups in a 23-17 loss to the New Orleans Breakers.

OTHERS OF NOTE

  • QB Shea Patterson (Michigan Panthers): Patterson completed 17/25 passes (68.0%) for 192 yards, 1 touchdown, and 0 interceptions in a 17-12 loss. However, he was sacked 3 times and fumbled 2 times in his first game action since playing at Michigan in 2019; one of the fumbles was returned for a touchdown.

Video also came out where former Michigan running back De'Veon Smith was apparently cut from the Pittsburgh Maulers because he wanted pizza instead of chicken salad and did not respond in a satisfactory way to the person offering the food:

    That "tough love" coach is probably going to come to regret cutting DeVeon Smith over a food choice.

    I watched the Panthers game, and had an eye on others games

    Very low talent. Great camera angles & mic work, but Offensive Linemen are in very short supply

    On Shea, he was either helping the offense move the ball, or just bad. That fumble returned for a TD was very Dan Orlovsky, and costs them the game

    I feel bad for Deveon but man that is funny. What a debacle.
