Michigan football had a lot of standouts this season, but some came as if from out of nowhere.

That’s why the Most Improved Player Award is a coveted designation for a player who wasn’t a household name in previous years.

At the Schemmy Awards, hosted by Jon Jansen at Crisler Center, one player from each of the three units — offense, defense and special teams — each got to bring home a replica of the Bo Schembechler statue.

On offense, redshirt freshman running back Hassan Haskins won the award. He spent much of the 2018 season on defense at linebacker before becoming the starting RB in 2019. Haskins had 103 carries for 561 yards and 4 touchdowns.

On defense, junior safety Brad Hawkins won the award. He had 53 tackles in 2019.

On special teams, it was Peter Bush who took home the Schemmy. He registered one tackle in 2019.
