He’s a 4-star, the #35 defensive lineman, and #243 overall. Right now there are three crystal ball picks, and they’re all in favor of Clemson, which recruits the state of Georgia very well.

Amir Herring – OG – West Bloomfield (MI) West Bloomfield
Semaj Morgan – WR – West Bloomfield (MI) West Bloomfield
Adam Samaha – K – Ann Arbor (MI) Huron

Michigan 51, Colorado State 7

Who’s your QB? Cade McNamara started the game and completed 9/18 passes for 136 yards and 1 touchdown. It was not a great start. He threw an easy completion into the dirt, had guys drop a couple passes, and had to throw a couple balls away. One play looked like a bad interception initially, until you realized that tight end Erick All fell down coming out of his break; luckily, the pass was ruled incomplete after replayed deemed it hit the ground. Meanwhile, J.J. McCarthy played sporadically, completing 4/4 passes for 30 yards and running 3 times for 50 yards and 1 touchdown. I don’t put too much stock in either performance. McNamara started off slowly last year and had a good season. McCarthy’s package against an inferior team is not a large enough sample size to make an overall decision.
