Calhoun was wanted by Kentucky, Maryland, and Pitt, among others, but Michigan won out in a close battle against the Kentucky Wildcats. He finished the cycle ranked as a 4-star, the #31 cornerback, and #396 overall. He enrolled early in Ann Arbor back in January and participated in spring practices. Overall, the feedback was positive and he seemed to put himself in a good position to play in the future.
Michigan’s shortage of cornerbacks is going to require some young, inexperienced guys to play. The Wolverines did land UMass transfer Josh Wallace to potentially start opposite Will Johnson, and they also have the super-athletic – but raw – Amorion Walker. Calhoun has virtually no chance to start, but he could mix in at times to prepare for the future. I think fellow freshman Jyaire Hill is more athletic and has a higher upside, but Calhoun might get a chance to show his stuff, especially early in the season.
Prediction: Backup cornerback
