It was a long off-season for Michigan Football after a very successful 2021.
A cold winter, a spring, and a sweltering summer have all transpired since Michigan played Georgia in the College Football Playoff.
There was off-season conditioning, which players started shortly after the season ended. Then there were spring practices, and now the team is well into fall camp with their first game on Sept. 3.
This distance in time has allowed new playmakers to emerge, and leaders such as team captain and quarterback Cade McNamara to improve his craft.
“I’ve for sure gotten much better than I was at this time last year, or even the end of the season last year,” McNamara said on Thursday.
