Michigan Wolverines Football: 30 greatest players of all-time

The Michigan Wolverines football program has some of the richest history in college football, and here are the top-30 players to play at the school.

In the history of college football, no program has as many wins as the Michigan Wolverines. The winners of 11 claimed national titles, the Wolverines have one of the richest histories in sports and have had no shortage of legendary players since their inception.

In total, the Wolverines have won 42 conference championships, have had three players go on to win the Heisman Trophy and have been apart of some of the more memorable games in college football history. They have been a program that has dominated the college football landscape for over 100 years and continue to put a good product on the field.

Here are the top-30 players in program history.

David Terrell played his high school ball at Huguenot High School in Richmond, Virginia. He came to the Michigan program in the fall of 1998. A two-way player for the Wolverines during his freshman and sophomore years, Terrell became one of the best wideout in the Big Ten over his last two years with the school. He became a first-round draft pick by the Chicago Bears.

A two-year starter at wide receiver, Terrell appeared in 37 games during his college career and became one of the more prolific wideouts in school history. He was the first player in Michigan history to rack up over 1,000 receiving yards in multiple seasons. Terrell capped off his incredible sophomore year by being named the FedEx Orange Bowl Most Valuable Player.

In that game, Terrell set career highs in receptions (10) and receiving yards (150), while snagging three touchdowns. He never became the kind of player he was at Michigan once he got to the NFL. However, when it comes to all-time greats at the school, there have been very few wide receivers who were able to accomplish all the things that Terrell did in his three seasons in Ann Arbor.
