Interesting. The Daily had an article saying that he was returning to Stanford for a 5th year:

But looking at the tweet they use for confirmation, Lyons doesn't expressly state that he's returning to Stanford--he just says he's going to "stay in school" instead of going to the NFL:

I certainly read it the same way the Daily did at the time, but with whispers of him going to Michigan, I suppose that his tweet is linguistically consistent with a transfer to Michigan. He's going to "stay in school," which could be read narrowly to mean he's staying at Stanford or more broadly to mean that he'll be in school next year and delaying declaring for the draft.Â
Anyone else have any insight?
