One of the key factors to winning any Championship is staying healthy during the year as a collective starting unit. For the most part, the Wolverines did that last season. The year prior with a very talented team, they clearly missed their best player on offense in the CFP when Blake Corum went down with a knee injury against Illinois.
We are just a couple days into Spring Practice and have already gotten some bad news in that starting Safety Rod Moore has gone down with a serious knee injury. The internet is speculating an ACL and MCL tear. Which would clearly put him him out for the entire 2024 campaign. We already know Michigan has already lost Sabb to the portal and Alabama's NIL effort. Not only does this hurt the starting lineup it hurts depth in Safety/DB room.
With English heading to the portal and now Moore's injury. Michigan will need to make an effort finding maybe 2 DB's and 2 WR's in the portal. Getting 1 of each is now the very minimum. Hearing the young DB's are playing well this Spring which is good news and might take some sting off this news.
- Fox is going to televise the Michigan Spring Game. Have they ever watched a Michigan Spring Game?
- Donovan Edwards says he is up 14 pounds and finally fully healthy.
- Michigan had Ohio 4-star RB Bo Jackson on campus this weekend? Shouldn't he be a 5-star? 😃
- Mason Graham confirmed he wants to stay at Michigan and continue on with his teammates in a program that he knows. He must of had some huge NIL offers from other teams.
- Dallas Cowboys Michigan Draft Picks Mazi Smith and Luke Schoonmaker both have shoulder surgery.

With all these shoulder injuries, maybe we need to go back to wearing the big pads of the 90's. Those things were monstrous.
Hey Brady,
ACL is a knee injury. AC joint is the shoulder injury. From what I read on another site, Moore injured his ACL, anterior cruciate ligament.
Brady2017 said shoulder pads need to be beefed up. I don't disagree. Football equipment is down to a bare minimum and I wonder how much protection is really there. I can't remember who I was watching but some of the players looked like they were wearing shorts. Knee pads are a thing of the past. Really surprised there is not more serious stuff going on... Just food for thought...
Bob wrote Schoony and Mazi both had shoulder surgery. That's what I was referring to.
SPRING PRACTICE UPDATE- Jack Tuttle and Alex Orji are neck and neck at QB after the first week, with Jayden Davis close behind.
Brady2017, where did you hear or read that?
