Ann Arbor, MI (SportsNetwork. Cheap Patriots Jerseys .com) - Devin Gardner will return to the starting quarterback position for Michigan when the struggling Wolverines take the field Saturday at Rutgers following a tumultous week for the program. Head coach Brady Hoke confirmed Gardners re-insertion atop the depth chart after the fifth-year senior was benched in favor of sophomore Shane Morris for last weeks game against Minnesota. Morris sustained a mild concussion during the Wolverines 30-14 loss but was allowed to return to the game despite not being cleared by the team neurologist, a decision that has drawn heavy criticism upon Hoke and athletic director Dave Brandon from the media as well as Michigan students and supporters of the program. Brandon released a statement Tuesday in response to the controversy, acknowledging that there had been a serious lack of communication between the medical staff and the coaches in regards to Morris injury. Morris, who had suffered an ankle injury earlier in the game, stumbled and appeared dazed after taking a hit from Minnesotas Theiren Cockran in the fourth quarter. He stayed on the field for one more play before being pulled to the sidelines, but later returned for another play on the same drive. Brandon said the training staff did not see the hit Morris took and believed the stumble was a result of the previous ankle injury. According to the statement, the neurologist was in the process of making his way to evaluate Morris when he went back in the game. The neurologist and other team physicians were not aware that Shane was being asked to return to the field, and Shane left the bench when he heard his name called and went back into the game, Brandon said. Under these circumstances, a player should not be allowed to re-enter the game before being cleared by the team physician. This clearly identifies the need for improvements in our sideline and communications processes. The athletic departments handling of the situation prompted several students and fans to form a protest on the lawn of university president Mark Schlissels residence Tuesday, calling for Brandons resignation. During his press conference on Wednesday, Hoke supported Brandons remarks while reaffirming that he and his coaches do not have final say on whether an injured player should be put on the field. I take responsibility for our student-athletes and I would take it for their health and welfare, but I also made clear that I dont make decisions on injuries and that shouldnt be a coaches decision, said Hoke. Thats why we have some of the best trainers, some of the best doctors in the country. They will, unchallenged, have the full authority to make those decisions. Hoke told reporters on Monday that he had not been informed that Morris may have been dealing with a concussion during the game. He said Morris has been ruled out for Saturdays tilt. Gardner had started 16 straight regular-season games at quarterback prior to last weeks loss, but threw six interceptions as the Wolverines split their first four contests of 2014. Two of those picks came in a 26-10 home loss to Utah on Sept. 20 that led to Morris being named the starter against Minnesota.

The Giants manager said there was "no chance" of stretching out his starter again Wednesday, even after Lincecum logged five hitless innings. Not with a blister forming on the tip of Lincecums middle finger. Not with the Giants owning baseballs best record. And certainly, not with more than half of the season to play. Instead, Lincecum and five relievers combined on a weird two-hitter to lead the San Francisco Giants to a 5-0 win over the Chicago Cubs on Wednesday. "He worked so hard out there. It was time," Bochy said. The unconventional performance included 10 baserunners -- five walks, two hits, two errors and a hit batter -- before an announced sellout crowd of 41,186 at AT&T Park that wanted to cheer history. Lincecum struck out five, walked four and hit a batter in another wild but effective start. George Kontos (1-0) retired four straight before John Baker singled through the right side of the infield with one out in the seventh against lefty Jeremy Affeldt for Chicagos first hit. The Cubs hold the longest streak in the majors without being no-hit. The last time it happened to them was 1965, when Sandy Koufax pitched a perfect game for the Dodgers. "Whats the cliche? Its a game of inches," Baker said. "I think the Chicago Cubs are proving beyond a shadow of a doubt that baseballs a game of inches." Hector Sanchez hit a two-run double, and three others drove in a run to help the Giants (34-19) extend the best record in the majors. San Francisco has won six of seven after holding the Cubs scoreless in consecutive games. Edwin Jackson (3-5) gave up two runs on four hits in 5 1-3 innings for the Cubs, who have not won a road series since last September. He struck out nine and walked two. But for most of a sunny afternoon along the bay, the focus remained on whether San Franciscos staff would complete an improbable no-hitter. Lincecum had a 32-pitch first inning that ended oon Nate Schierholtzs sharp lineout to first baseman Buster Posey with runners on second and third. Patriots Womens Jerseys. He tossed another 20 in the second and pitched a perfect third. The two-time NL Cy Young Award winner hit Schierholtz and overcame an error by shortstop Brandon Crawford on a grounder in the fourth. And after walking Emilio Bonifacio in the fifth, Lincecum got Junior Lake to ground into a double play. It was the second straight erratic outing for Lincecum. He walked six in six innings in San Franciscos 6-2 win over Minnesota last Friday. Lincecum said a tiny blister began forming on the tip of his middle finger in the third. He said its not serious, but he didnt want to risker further injury. And with a no-hitter on his resume already, he felt no need to lobby Bochy for another inning. "I think its just because I know what our bullpen is capable of," Lincecum said. "I just wanted to get the win today and put up some good numbers today, so it was good." Jean Machi got two outs on three pitches, Juan Gutierrez allowed a single to Anthony Rizzo in 1 1-3 scoreless innings and Javier Lopez recorded the final two outs in the ninth. San Francisco supplied support for the pitchers in the late innings. Pablo Sandoval and Tyler Colvin drove in a run in the sixth, and Sanchez hit a two-run double to highlight a three-run seventh that gave the Giants a 5-0 lead. Bochy said Sanchez will continue to catch Lincecum most of the season. He said the move is made, in part, to save Posey from the bumps and bruises that often come with catching Lincecum. "We have a good relationship," Sanchez said, "and we work well together."
