Devin Bush is leaving but there are good options to replace him

One of the great things about bowl practices can be the development of young players and this week, that is being felt at a couple of linebacker positions.

Devin Bush has been a star for the Michigan football team the last couple of years and this season, Bush won the Defensive Player of the Year Award in the Big Ten Conference.

However, because of injury and because of his status as a projected first-round pick Bush isn’t playing in the Peach Bowl. Ross will replace him at inside linebacker and should have the job next season. Khaleke Hudson will also be back at the viper, but others that have proven worthy of playing this week are Cameron McGrone and Jordan Anthony.

McGrone is a former five-star recruit and he should definitely have a chance to start at outside linebacker next season. Anthony is another guy that has a chance to play a lot in the future and he could also see some time in the  Peach Bowl. Either way, linebacker depth shouldn’t be an issue going forward.
