Strength and conditioning coach Ben Herbert has informed the Michigan players that he is leaving to go to Los Angeles after a Monday morning lift session.
Here's what we know about what happened:
- Herbert waited until the end of the lift to inform the team he was leaving.
- It was very emotional, as you can all imagine. Tears were shed.
- He said the major reason to leave was to give the NFL a shot, and dip his toes into the NFL waters.
- He said what he needed to say and exited.
- Players are upset.
S&C assistant Justin Tress is taking over the program, however, it's unknown as of this writing whether he has the job full-time or is temporary.
