Many insiders believed Michael Barrett and Michigan had gone their separate ways. Michigan already has two talented RB's in the class and is looking to fill its remaining spots with offensive lineman or defensive lineman. Michael it was assumed wanted to play QB in college and was a better fit for Georgia Tech or Nebraska's offense.
Michigan wants Barrett has a running back/slot WR at 6'0 215 pounds. They love his athleticism and believe he can do a ton out of the backfield to help move the chains and score points. He is a 3 star prospect to all the services but has a very nice offer sheet that includes: Georgia Tech, LSU, Maryland, Michigan State, NC State, Nebraska, South Carolina, Tennessee, UCF, USF, Virginia, and West Virginia.
