Offensive line
Starters: Myles Hinton, Josh Priebe, Greg Crippen, Giovanni El-Hadi, Andrew Gentry
Top Backups: Jeff Persi, Raheem Anderson, Evan Link, Tristan Bounds, Dominick Giudice, Nathen Efobi
It feels like the only position up for grabs going into fall camp is right tackle. Myles Hinton will start on the left side and if he can finally realize his potential, he might be the best left tackle Michigan football has had during this recent run of success.
Hinton has all the tools to be a first-round pick as Kirk Campbell said this spring. Even though Grant Newsome has taken over as the O-line coach, if any program had get it out of Hinton, it's Michigan.
Michigan football won the Joe Moore Award in 2021 and 2022. The Wolverines were elite up front again in 2023, and despite losing all five starters, this group should be fine. Priebe was an All-Big Ten selection. Crippen and El-Hadi have been good enough to start games, but have been stuck behind an incredibly deep offensive line the past couple of years.
Gentry is a concern at right tackle but he was a former top-100 recruit. He looked more of the part this spring. There were some struggles but again, I believe in the coaching staff's ability to develop offensive lineman.
