Michigan has playmakers

There is this idea out there that Michigan football doesn’t have a lot of talent at the skill positions and that really just isn’t true.

Yes, it hurt to lose Worthy and Michigan isn’t Ohio State, but even without Worthy, the Wolverines have landed A.J. Henning, a guy ranked close to the top 100 back in 2020, Andrel Anthony in 2021 and now Morris, among others at the position in 2022.

Obviously, that list would be even more impressive if Worthy was still part of it and there’s no question that adding Worthy to this group would be incredible.

But he didn’t want to be at Michigan. Sure, things could have happened that made things work out differently. He also could have stayed since, by the time he asked out, he wasn’t enrolling early enough to play spring ball anyway, so the enrollment thing really is just an excuse.

Worthy wanted to be at Texas or wherever he ends up. Good luck to him. I don’t see Morris pulling those stunts and it seems like the Wolverines landed a recruit who actually plans on playing for the program instead of playing games.
