02/28/23 - Zak Zinter, Sr/2024, Michigan + More +

There's good, and then there's an embarrassment-of-riches good. That's the state of the Michigan offensive line heading into the upcoming season. Michigan has won the Joe Moore Award in back-to-back seasons, getting a boost at center last season with transfer Olu Oluwatimi, who went on to win the Rimington Trophy as the nation's best center and the Outland, given to the nation's top interior lineman. The group helped the Wolverines average 238.9 rushing yards last season, ranking No. 5 nationally. Sherrone Moore, Michigan's offensive coordinator, who also coaches the offensive line, has built depth, adding three linemen from the transfer portal last December, and experience. Last season, because of injuries, there were five different starting-line combinations, with nine players making starts. Gone are Oluwatimi and left tackle Ryan Hayes, both participating in this week's NFL combine, but the transfer additions are LaDarius Henderson, Drake Nugent and Myles Hinton.

Among the experienced players returning are left guard Trevor Keegan and right guard Zak Zinter. Both assessed heading to the NFL and opted for another season at Michigan. Spring practice, which began a week ago and is paused while the university is on spring break, will be useful for getting some of the younger players, including Gio El-Hadi and Jeff Persi, who made starts last season, more practice reps. Also back are starters Karsen Barnhart and Trente Jones, who competed at right tackle. Henderson won't be able to practice with the team until the preseason, while he finishes his degree work at Arizona State, and Nugent and Hinton are missing spring practice while working through post-season surgeries. Henderson and Nugent are targeting starting spots in the fall. - Detroit News

02/26/23 - Amorion Walker, Jr/2026, Michigan + More +

With Michigan losing cornerbacks DJ Turner and Gemon Green to the NFL this offseason, the team will be searching for a new starter in 2023 to play the opposite side of burgeoning sophomore Will Johnson. The Wolverines are only two practices into spring ball, but head coach Jim Harbaugh said Thursday they might have potentially found that player. "Amorion Walker is - I consider him a starter right now, just off the first few practices," Harbaugh said. Michigan doesn't have much experience at the corner position and has Walker primarily focusing on defense this spring. The rising sophomore is a former three-star receiver recruit from Louisiana who played just six snaps at corner in 2022 and five at receiver.

But his speed and length - he's listed at 6-foot-3 - make him an intriguing option on the outside heading into 2023. Earlier this month, Johnson posted a video on social media of Walker running the three-cone drill. The drill was timed by Michigan's coaching staff, and he clocked in at 6.10 seconds, which would be a record at the NFL Scouting Combine. "You just don't know for sure whether it's receiver or corner, but the length he has, the athletic ability that he has, speed that he has and the change of direction, mainly, for a guy that's 6-3, 6-4," Harbaugh said. "It's rare for a corner to be able to have that length and speed, but have that change of direction. So you just want to find out, and that's what I think what (defensive backs coach Steve Clinkscale) thinks. But we'll see if we're right." - Ann Arbor News

02/26/23 - Blake Corum, Sr/2024, Michigan + More +

Michigan's football program received a massive boost this offseason when star running back Blake Corum announced he was returning for his senior season. But the 2022 Heisman Trophy candidate won't back to 100% during spring practices as he recovers from surgery on his left knee in early December. "Probably will be full-go sometime around the start of June for the full summer cycle," head coach Jim Harbaugh said Thursday, talking with media two practices into the spring cycle. Although Corum isn't participating in drills, Harbaugh said he has been at the team's facilities every day rehabbing and receiving treatment.

"Give it the time that's needed to recover and build the strength back and make sure that he's in a in a great place," Harbaugh said. "Every guy that's not participating in spring ball, they're actively continuing strength and conditioning. They're actively fulfilling the protocols that the doctors have for their rehabilitation. I don't see anybody loafing or taking it easy. They still got the sweat all over the shirt, so it's good. Guys are doing what the experts are telling them to do right now." The 5-foot-8, 210-pound Corum was among the nation's rushing leaders last season before suffering a knee injury late in the first half against Illinois on Nov. 19. He finished with 1,463 rushing yards and 18 touchdowns as the workhorse in Michigan's backfield. "I don't like the way I went out," Corum said in January on The Rich Eisen Show. "I'm coming back for it all." - Ann Arbor News
