ANN ARBOR, Mich. -- Michigan coach Brady Hoke says wide receiver Darryl Stonum is still on the team despite violating probation in a drunken-driving case.
Stonum was stopped by police in Ann Arbor early Thursday and violated probation because his license had been revoked, probation officer Steve Hill said.
Hoke, during a previously scheduled news conference, was asked about Stonum's status on the team.
"Until we know everything, it hasn't changed," Hoke said.
Stonum, a senior from Stafford Texas,, was sentenced to two years of probation in June for operating a vehicle while visibly impaired in May. He was suspended indefinitely and eventually redshirted, leaving him one more year of eligibility.
Stonum started 25 games for Rich Rodriguez over three years with 76 catches for six touchdowns and 1,008 yards receiving.
If Stonum isn't kicked off the team, he will likely be one of the Wolverines' top receivers in Hoke's second season in charge of college football's winningest program..
When Stonum was a freshman in 2008, he was charged with operating a vehicle while intoxicated and driving with a suspended license. Stonum ended up in jail last summer because he didn't comply with terms of his probation.
