As part of Greg McElroy’s preseason top 25 rankings on his YouTube show, Always College Football, he rated Michigan outside the top 10 and made the case for why the Wolverines can’t be trusted too much in 2024. “Just being honest, I look at the last couple years, I’ve been high on Michigan — had them No. 2 but picked them to win the national championship,” McElroy referenced of his 2023 preseason predictions. But he made that pick in ’23 for the same reasons he’s docking UM in ’24. “I took the Michigan Wolverines, understandably because of the continuity that had been created the last few year...

EA Sports College Football 25 is back, and Michigan will be the defending national champions in the game’s first installment in ten years. Now, we know EA’s full roster player ratings for Michigan at the game’s initial launch. After winning the National Championship last season in the last installment of the four-team College Football Playoff, Jim Harbaugh left Michigan and Sherrone Moore took over as head coach. Michigan set a program record with 13 players selected in the 2024 NFL Draft, too, meaning the roster has undergone at least a bit of a transformation. Still, the Wolverines’ ratings ...

Just after Michigan Wolverines footballlost 51-45 to TCU in the College Football Playoff semifinal Dec. 31, 2022, quarterback J.J. McCarthy vowed publicly that the team would be back. McCarthy and Co. didn’t just keep good on that promise, they went even further, finishing 15-0 with a national championship in 2023. Naturally, after making decisions on their futures, McCarthy and other departing Michigan players passed the torch to the next men up, such as junior signal-caller Alex Orji, a contender to start behind center this fall. The work started from there on out, with the Wolverines having...

Coming off a national championship season, the Michigan Wolverines saw quarterback J.J. McCarthy get selected in the first round of the NFL Draft. That, in turn, left the program with a major hole to fill and a quarterback competition began. As ESPN college football insider Pete Thamel explained on the College GameDay Podcast, the competition is still open for the Michigan quarterback job. However, it’s starting to look like it’s Alex Orji‘s job moving forward. “I think it’s Alex Orji,” Pete Thamel said. “Watching the spring game and the buzz out of the spring game was he looked and acted like...

The Michigan Wolverines head into the leadup of fall camp with a major question mark at quarterback in a battle that will be waged by junior Alex Orji, graduate Jack Tuttle and senior Davis Warren.

I love the mindset he...

One quarterback is eventually going to win the position battle at Michigan this offseason. For now, though, Sherrone Moore is giving no comment on the state of the competition in Ann Arbor. A reporter asked Moore about the Wolverines’ quarterbacks with other media while at the SMSB National College Showcase on Thursday. He said that he has no issue being patient in naming an eventual starter for the maize & blue and shut the rest of the questions down from there. “Very comfortable,” said Moore in regards to waiting to pick Michigan’s QB1. “I’m not going to answer any questions about the quarte...

Joel Klatt took some time to break down the performances of Michigan quarterbacks Alex Orji and Davis Warren during the Wolverines’ Spring Game. Evidently, Klatt believes both quarterbacks are talented, but only one can win the team’s quarterback competition. He’s not leaning one way or another following the Spring Game earlier in April though. “The other thing that I think really stood out is just this quarterback battle. There were no answers on Saturday. We didn’t find out who was going to be the quarterback. I think you saw in a lot of ways what makes this quarterback battle so unique, and...

Michigan head coach Sherrone Moore didn’t budge when it came to the quarterback battle this spring. It seems to be a two-man race between Alex Orji and Davis Warren with Jadyn Davis and Jayden Denegal as the next two guys in the race. The natural assumption is Orji, but Moore didn’t reveal who had the edge and the battle will clearly bleed into fall camp. “Everybody’s getting better,” Moore said. I think that’ll go into the summer, the fall. We’ll see when we get to fall camp.” The Maize team beat the Blue team in the spring game 17-7, with the latter being led by Warren and Orji starting for ...
