ANN ARBOR -- Quarterback Steven Threet issued a guarantee Monday as Michigan prepared for Michigan State on Saturday -- he will play.
"I would say I'd be ready to go on Saturday," said Threet, who has been hampered by a bruised right (throwing) elbow since Oct. 11 and reinjured it at Penn State.
An X-ray last week did not reveal a broken or chipped bone.
A week ago, Threet's status was questionable.
"There's a bump on it kind of still," he said. "Not huge. It's not like a baseball on my elbow. Swelling has gone down from some treatment, but it's more just a matter of not being able to move it.
Daily treatment includes icing, and ultra-sound stimulation. Threet will continue to work the arm to make certain he has full range of motion. He said he will practice today and the rest of the week as long as the elbow does not give him problems
