Tuskegee receives permission to speak with Michigan's Dennis Norfleet about a transfer

ANN ARBOR, Michigan -- Dennis Norfleet's situation with the Michigan football program has been cloudy for roughly three months now.

But it appears he's at least strongly considering spending his final year of eligibility elsewhere.

A spokesman at Tuskegee University told MLive on Monday afternoon that the university received official permission to speak with Norfleet about a potential transfer to the school over the weekend.
Tuskegee is a Division II school in Alabama. If Norfleet transferred there, he'd be eligible to play immediately.

Michigan has declined to comment on Norfleet's status officially for three months now. In May, King High School coach Dale Harvel told MLive that the receiver/kick returner had been dismissed from the program by coach Jim Harbaugh.
