Just over the weekend, one of the most explosive play-makers in the 2020 class narrowed down his list to 11 programs, and the Michigan Wolverines wound up on that list.
Standing at 5-foot-9 and weighing 180 pounds, 4-star athlete Daniyel Ngata has the type of speed Michigan is looking for out of the backfield/slot, especially considering offensive coordinator Josh Gattis’ #SpeedInSpace mantra.
But it was another coach that gravitated Ngata to including Michigan in his top list — running backs coach Jay Harbaugh.
“Coach Jay has been in contact with me for a long time, and said a few things and he has a special plan for the next few years,” Ngata told Maize n Brew.
