U-M needs Darboh to 'make the tough catch'

Though Michigan's fall camp focus is on the quarterback race, some of that will be determined by the players on the other end of the passes.

The Wolverines' receiving corps has little proof, as only one returning receiver made more than 14 catches last season.

So, by default, the 6-foot-2, 216-pound Amara Darboh, with his 36-catch season, is expected to become the quarterback's top target.

Playing opposite Devin Funchess, Darboh finished with 473 yards and two touchdowns, but needs another step to be a primary weapon, passing game coordinator Jedd Fisch said, with effort and work.
