Last week against Middle Tennessee State, one of the big surprises was that Michigan football didn’t have its starting tackle in Jon Runyan, who many believe in the Wolverines best offensive lineman.
It was a bit of a shock when Runyan was on the injury report and with him out of the lineup, it forced Ryan Hayes to be the starting left tackle.
It was the first start for the redshirt freshman who played tight end in high school and was viewed as a long-term project when he arrived on campus in 2018. He’s big, athletic and has great feet.
