The month of July for football fans is a month of speculation, optimism, pessimism, boredom, hope and every hypothetical question under the summer sun. My recent favorite, “If you are drafting an All-Harbaugh era offense to beat an All-Ohio State defense of the same era, what does your staring 11 and five rotational players off the bench look like?”
Man, I love a good hypothetical. Please send in your answers to the question above.
The 2022 Michigan Wolverines still face several questions — mostly on defense — but after the spring game, the two-deep rotation is starting to become clear.
You already know the obvious ones, but who will start in the secondary? How will the receiver rotation shake out?
There will be a few notable omissions (transfer Cam Goode, freshmen Zeke Berry and Jimmy Rolder) below because this list is for players who enrolled early. Furthermore, the depth chart is based off an 11-personnel (one running back, one tight end) standard offensive formation and the defense is based off a 3-4 and also includes a nickel corner option.
