WINTER GARDEN, FL — There was nothing particularly new to glean from Michigan football’s second practice in Orlando, as the Wolverines prepare for the VRBO Citrus Bowl against Alabama.
As the team went through individual drills, everything we noticed on Friday remained the same on Saturday.
Here’s some bullet points of some of the observations we had:
- David Ojabo was wearing #33, a departure from #71, which he wore during the regular season. It didn’t have a nameplate, so it may just be a temporary situation.
- The quarterbacks and receivers still looked solid. Saw some good throws from both Dylan McCaffrey and Joe Milton, who both hit their receivers in stride, deep.
- Christian Turner still hasn’t arrived. Mike Morris was still not dressed in uniform for this practice.
- I like Jess Speight’s tenacity in his attack. Can see why many told me this past offseason that he was an underrated performer.
- Mike Sainristil and Giles Jackson both can clearly speed down the field as well and come down with over the shoulder catches. Saw both of them get the ball and run with it.
- Gattis was certainly animated when we saw either the receivers or tight ends not come down with a ball that hit them in the hands. Understandably and obviously.
- Again, really noticed Chuck Filiaga. Karsen Barnhart also stood out in what little I watched the offensive line.
- Definitely feel like redshirt freshman safety Sammy Faustin is taller than his listed 6-foot-2. Looks more 6-4.
- Linebackers and cornerbacks were on a different field, so didn’t get a look at any of them this time around.
