The following depth chart has removed these listed players from the depth chart, even though some could return with a fifth year or COVID year exception:

  • QB J.J. McCarthy (NFL)
  • RB C.J. Stokes (transfer to Charlotte)
  • WR Darrius Clemons (transfer to Oregon State)
  • TE Matt Hibner (transfer)
  • OL Trente Jones (NFL)
  • DL Reece Atteberry (transfer)
  • LB Joey Velazquez (transfer)
  • CB Cam Calhoun (transfer to Utah)
  • CB Amorion Walker (transfer to Ole Miss)

It also assumes that every currently rostered player and every currently committed prospect will be here in 2024, which is obviously not true.

What’s on Sherrone Moore’s Checklist?

Former offensive coordinator Sherrone Moore was introduced as Michigan’s head football coach on Saturday, replacing Jim Harbaugh, who left for the Los Angeles Chargers. That has elicited several changes in the program, including the loss of defensive coordinator Jesse Minter, safeties coach Jay Harbaugh, and strength and conditioning coach Ben Herbert.

Here are the main staff components as they stand today, and some of these positions may be fluid:

  1. Head Coach: Sherrone Moore
  2. Offensive Coordinator (expected)/Quarterbacks Coach: Kirk Campbell
  3. Running Backs Coach: Mike Hart
  4. Wide Receivers Coach: Ron Bellamy
  5. Tight Ends Coach: ???
  6. Offensive Line Coach: Grant Newsome
  7. Defensive Coordinator: ???
  8. Defensive Line Coach: Mike Elston
  9. Linebackers Coach: ???
  10. Cornerbacks Coach: Steve Clinkscale
  11. Safeties Coach/Special Teams Coordinator: ???

So here are some of the things that should be top of mind for Moore.

Hit the jump.
