Ann Arbor — Michigan center Cesar Ruiz’s voice was a bit raw and a tad raspy, but he got his message across loud and clear to media questioning how good the offensive line can be this fall.

Ruiz, a sophomore, will be the Wolverines’ starting center when they open the season Sept. 1 at Notre Dame. He has been reunited with quarterback Shea Patterson, for whom he was the center at IMG Academy.
