Even though he is expected to miss a majority of the regular season after undergoing knee surgery in the spring, Michigan Wolverines senior safety Rod Moore has continued to make a major difference from the sideline. That all culminated on Thursday with him being selected by his teammates to be a captain ahead of the upcoming season.
Moore’s contribution to the program extends far beyond his on-field production because his experience, leadership and positive attitude make him a crucial part of the team. Despite being sidelined, Moore has displayed an impressive ability to instruct and inspire his teammates, and it’s been noticed by his fellow captains.
