The image of Donovan Peoples-Jones flashed on the screen in Crisler Center on Wednesday during Michigan’s Signing of the Stars event. He smiled and did a little dance, as several thousand Michigan fans who were playing hooky for the day broke into cheers and applause.
This five-star wide receiver from Detroit Cass Tech walked on stage and sat on a set covered with artificial turf.
Tarik Black, a wide receiver who was the best player from Connecticut, sat next to him.
Peoples-Jones and Black have the potential to make an immediate impact on this team, considering Amara Darboh and Jehu Chesson have graduated.
