ANN ARBOR -- Freshman Sam McGuffie has emerged as Michigan's go-to back, but coach Rich Rodriguez said Wednesday that backup Carlos Brown is finally healthy.

Brown, a tailback, also has practiced at slot receiver and quarterback.

"You'll see more of Carlos in this game than you have earlier in the season," Rodriguez said of Saturday's home matchup against No. 9 Wisconsin.

Return men
Rodriguez said auditions for kick returners continue.

"We think we've identified the four or five guys we want to try first," Rodriguez said, laughing as he actually named six players.

Those are: Morgan Trent , Brandon Harrison , Michael Shaw , Boubacar Cissoko , James Rogers and Avery Horn .

QB job is all Threet's
Steven Threet is the starter at quarterback, but it is unclear whether Nick Sheridan , who started the opener, will play.
