RB: Hassan Haskins

I definitely think that Michigan football is going to have a three-back rotation in the backfield but the lead dog is going to be Hassan Haskins, at least in my opinion.

Blake Corum was a standout this spring and he shined in some of his opportunities last season. He’s going to be a star and truly, the running backs are as talented as any group on the team.

When you take the physical running style of Haskins, who isn’t flashy or a home-run hitter but just gets yards every time he touches the football, and combine that with the electric abilities of Corum and Donovan Edwards, the Wolverines should have something special.

The offensive line, which we will get to in just a few, has a chance to be one of the strengths of the team and even though you didn’t hear a ton about Haskins this spring, he shows up on Saturday’s and I believe he will be the starter to open the 2021 season.

Edwards and Corum will have big roles or should in 2021, but Haskins is my prediction to lead the Wolverines in carries next season.
