Lets get to the latest news first. When JD announced he needed to retire from football, Michigan's 2020 recruiting class took a major hit. You have to spend probably a year recruiting a top tier QB, so when you have a couple months your in trouble. Michigan made a run at 4 star CJ Stroud but he was tagged for OSU early and signed with the Buckeyes yesterday.
The backup plan is now a 3 star QB out of NY who was unranked just a week ago, Dan Villari. Dan is a 6'4 and 215 pounds and is a dual threat QB.
