Alex Orji, Davis Warren locked into tight Michigan QB competition

Michigan head coach Sherrone Moore didn’t announce who Michigan’s starting quarterback will be for the season opener on Saturday night against Fresno State.

“We’re close,” Moore said. “We’ll figure that out soon though. We’re in a good place.”

Moore said a decision could be made on Friday, or even right before the game. While Moore didn’t name a QB1 he did note that Alex Orji and Davis Warren are splitting first-team reps.

“Those guys have done an outstanding job and obviously made it very hard for us to make a decision right now,” Moore said.

Orji has been a running threat at quarterback to this point in his career while Warren is considered more of a pocket-passer.
