Michigan quote of the day
“The camaraderie and closeness of the group is impressive. That’s something really important for offensive line play, because you have to play five as one … Everybody is dedicated to the craft, putting in extra work whatever’s necessary. It’s just a phenomenal culture to be a part of.
“… On the field, we trust in each other. That’s what it’s about. You have to build that chemistry to be a great O-line. You need chemistry to be a great O-line.”
