2019 Season Countdown: #104 Jack Stewart

Name: Jack Stewart
Height: 6’4″
Weight: 280 lbs.
High school: New Canaan (CT) New Canaan
Position: Offensive tackle
Class: Freshman
Jersey number: N/A
Last year: Stewart was a senior in high school. He made 31 tackles, 9 tackles for loss, 5 sacks, and 1 fumble recovery on defense.
TTB Rating: 69

Stewart was a standout for New Canaan over the past couple seasons but arrives at Michigan with very little fanfare, as playing in Connecticut is not often considered noteworthy. He did, however, finish the cycle as a respectably rated 3-star, the #43 offensive tackle, and #574 overall.

Stewart signed in December but won’t arrive on campus until this summer, and he has some qualities to work on in the meantime. He needs to reshape his body a little bit, and he will also need to work on his technique – all standard fare for most incoming freshmen. Stewart seems to me to be the most likely incoming freshman to redshirt.

Prediction: Redshirt

2019 Season Countdown: #105 Kraig Correll

I apologize for not posting more recently. With some personal stuff going on, there just hasn’t been enough time to get everything done, so writing went on the back burner a little bit. I know we don’t all know each other, but any positive vibes you can send in the direction of my family and me would be appreciated.

Name: Kraig Correll
Height: 6’4″
Weight: 288 lbs.
High school: Blairstown (NJ) Blair Academy
Position: Center
Class: Redshirt freshman
Jersey number: #54
Last year: I did not rank Correll. He redshirted.
TTB Rating: N/A

It’s tough for walk-on linemen to see the field at a school like Michigan unless your last name is Glasgow, so Correll is likely bound for the bottom depths of the chart. However, he has good size for a lineman and I liked his film coming out of high school, at least to the extent of being a potential option with some development down the road. There was no buzz about Correll this off-season – while a couple other walk-ons did get some attention – but it’s still just going into his redshirt freshman season. He should make a solid practice player at a position (center) where smarts and toughness sometimes trump size and athleticism.

Prediction: Backup center
