Michigan head coach Jim Harbaugh confirmed in July that Norfleet would be allowed to speak with other college football programs, even though he had apparently been trying to work his way back into Harbaugh's good graces and back on the team. He took reps at cornerback in the fall, though he struggled there in the spring game.
Nor fleet, a senior, notched 19 kickoff returns for 438 yards last year. He finished with 94 returns for 2,203 yards, becoming the program's all-time leading kickoff returner, and hauled in 15 passes for 111 yards last season.
