Standing Tall: Donaven McCulley brings size and swagger to Michigan WR room

When Donaven McCulley transferred to Michigan, he wasn’t just looking for a new start but a system that would let him thrive.

“Just a new environment and new goals,” McCulley said. “Being able to take my game to the next level and be part of something great.”

That opportunity is now possible thanks to a shift in Michigan’s offensive philosophy. Under new coordinator Chip Lindsey, the Wolverines are looking to be a faster, more vertical passing attack.

“Fast pace—we’re gonna throw the ball down the field,” McCulley said. “That’s his vision.”

McCulley, a former quarterback at Indiana who once threw a touchdown in the Big House, brings a unique understanding of offensive structure and chemistry.
