Ranking the potential impact of Michigan’s fresh faces

Dustin Johnston

In this weeks’ Patreon column, we evaluate the Michigan players who are new to the roster or played limited minutes last season and assess their potential impact.

Three players on Michigan’s 2017-18 roster have averaged at least 10 minutes per game for a season in a Michigan uniform. The other nine haven’t and we’re going to take an early stab at projecting just how much of an impact each player from that group will be.

We’re including sophomores Jon Teske and Xavier Simpson in this mix because they played sparingly last season, along with transfers Charles Matthews and Jaaron Simmons, redshirt freshman Austin Davis, and the incoming freshman class.

Still to come

  1. 1. Jaaron Simmons – Graduate Senior
  2. 2. Charles Matthews – RS Sophomore
  3. 3. Isaiah Livers – Freshman
  4. 4. Xavier Simpson – Sophomore
  5. 5. Austin Davis – RS Freshman
