Wolverine player who transferred to Buckeyes not popular with former teammates

ANN ARBOR --- Justin Boren transferred from University of Michigan to Ohio State two years ago and his decision has not played out well with his former teammates.

Donovan Warren said Boren leaving to play for the rival was “disrespectful,” and David Moosman said he had no relationship with Boren even when the two were teammates.

UM will host Rose Bowl-bound OSU on Saturday needing a win to become bowl eligible.

Boren, of Pickerington, Ohio, is a starting guard, and his brother, Zach, is a freshman fullback for the Buckeyes.

In other news, Brandon Minor (shoulder) is day-to-day, according to coach Rich Rodriguez. Rodriguez said the past two seasons have probably been the most taxing of his career.
