Ann Arbor — Michigan defensive backs coach Mike Zordich can’t remember ever coaching a group as young as the corners he has right now, but the potential is steep.
“It is a fast group. It definitely is a fast group,” Zordich said after practice Tuesday, the Wolverines’ last before heading to Rome on Saturday where they will go sightseeing and hold three practices.
There are a few ways to define fast in football — they’re stopwatch fast and they’re fast running plays. The latter will take time, as they learn the playbook, which is why they’ve been getting so many reps this spring in practice.
