Michigan star RB Blake Corum’s sports car stolen in Ann Arbor

Just days after he announced he’d return to the University of Michigan for his senior season, star running back Blake Corum had his car stolen.

According to the Associated Press, Corum’s camouflaged 2017 Camaro — with his “BC2” moniker printed on the driver’s side — was driven off from a parking garage near his residence between Jan. 13 to Jan. 16.

The star said his flashy ride was a high school graduation gift from his parents.

“Wasn’t NIL funded, my parents used their hard earned money to bless me with something nice after I graduated high school,” Corum posted to Twitter. “God bless whoever stole it.”

Corum’s reply was in response to a tweet, where he refuted claims the now-stolen car was acquired through his NIL (name, image, and likeness) deal money.

According to The Wolverine, the driver also made off with Corum’s All-America helmet and various clothing items.

He ran for 1,463 yards and 18 touchdowns, though his season ended prematurely after suffering a knee injury against Illinois on Nov. 19.

Corum announced his intention to return to Michigan for his senior year following the Wolverine’s 51-45 loss to TCU in the Fiesta Bowl.

“My goals have always been about leaving an enduring legacy at the winningest program in the history of college football.” 

“Motivated by my profound love for Michigan and my commitment to my education, I have decided to return for another season. It is an honor to be a student-athlete at the University of Michigan!”

Jim Harbaugh says he has ‘unfinished business’ in NFL

Jim Harbaugh sounds like a coach who still has one eye on the NFL.

The 58-year-old doesn’t regret his pursuit of the Vikings’ head-coaching job and admitted falling short of winning a Super Bowl with the 49ers is “unfinished business.” Yet, he is also happy to still be coaching at Michigan, his alma mater.

“I don’t apologize for taking a look,” Harbaugh said in an interview that aired on ESPN’s College GameDay on Saturday, referring to his interest in coaching the Vikings, who opted for Kevin O’Connell instead. “And the one that doesn’t get printed is I don’t apologize for wanting to be at Michigan. Seem to cut off that last part of it. And that’s where [I’m] at, happy as can be.”

Harbaugh is coming off his first trip to the College Football Playoff and first win over Ohio State. The Wolverines are loaded on offense this year and could return to the Playoff. But Harbaugh isn’t ruling out going back to the NFL, either.

“One of the things that was really kind of driving me is, you know, we were in San Francisco, we got that close to winning the Super Bowl,” Harbaugh said. “That’s always been a thing. There’s unfinished business there. But, hey, winning the national championship, [I] could be really happy with that, too. So that’s the goal. That’s the one we’re chasing.”

For now, at least.
