Michigan Football: Michael Barrett could make the perfect Viper

Michigan football has been trying to find a home for Michael Barrett over the last two years and it looks like the Wolverines have found the ideal place for him at linebacker.

Barrett came to Michigan football as an athlete, a guy that could potentially play running back, safety or linebacker. He’s 6-foot and around 227 pounds and according to Don Brown, who offered some high praise on Barrett in a recent interview with Jon Jansen, said he ran a 4.51 this summer in the 40-yard dash.

Brown also told Jansen Barrett would get the first shot at being the Viper next season:

“The nice thing with Michael, he can play SAM, he can play VIPER.
