Michigan has extended a scholarship offer to 2026 Cincinnati (Ohio) Archbishop Moeller four-star quarterback Matt Ponatoski, who attends the same powerhouse high school that produced Michigan sophomore running back Jordan Marshall.

Ponatoski was the Gatorade Player of the Year in Ohio as a junior in 2024. Here’s what Gatorade wrote about him at the time of his selection: “At the time of his selection, the 6-foot-1, 195-pound junior quarterback had led the Crusaders to a 14-1 record and a berth in the Division I state championship game. Ponatoski passed for 4,085 yards and 56 touchdowns against just three interceptions in 15 games, including 12 games with at least three TD tosses. A two-time Greater Catholic League First-Team honoree, he is also a nationally ranked shortstop for the Moeller baseball team.”

Michigan is in the top tier of contenders for 2026 five-star offensive tackle Jackson Cantwell.

Michigan quarterback Davis Warren and wide receiver Peyton O’Leary helped cheer kids up at Mott Children’s Hospital.

This week in 2009, Michigan quarterback Denard Robinson made his commitment to the Wolverines.

Robinson holds the Michigan record for career total offense (10,769 yards) and is the program’s all-time leader in touchdowns scored (91). He is the school’s second leading rusher with 4,495 career yards, trailing only Mike Hart, and ranks third in career rushing touchdowns (42) and is tied for second with 20 career 100-yard rushing games. Robinson is fourth in career passing yardage (6,250) and touchdown passes (49). He also has six of the top 10 single-game offensive outputs in school history.

FanDuel set Michigan’s over/under for total wins in 2025 at 8.5 in the regular season.

Quote Of The Day

“For us to be able to not play anywhere near our best and find ways to win usually bodes well, because you stay hungry, you realize it’s easier to get the guys to pay attention to the details, versus maybe if you won by 15 or 16.”

— Michigan basketball head coach Dusty May
