Michigan football’s already deep running back room is deeper than expected, as Christian Turner has opted back into the 2020 season, U-M spokesperson David Ablauf confirmed with Maize n Brew Saturday morning..
The 5-foot-11, 203-pound redshirt sophomore opted out of the 2020 season back in August, becoming the first U-M player to do so due to the pandemic. But he has since deleted his announcement on Twitter and is back with the team as of last month.
Turner faces an uphill climb on the depth chart, as Zach Charbonnet, Hassan Haskins and Chris Evans all appear to be ahead of him.
