The following depth chart assumes that the following seniors depart from Ann Arbor after 2020 and that Jalen Mayfield continues on to the NFL:
It also assumes that every currently rostered player and every currently committed prospect will be here in 2021, which is obviously not true.

Jordan Crook - LB - Duncanville (TX) Duncanville: Crook is a 6'0", 220 lb. prospect with offers from Arizona, Oklahoma State, USC, and Washington, among others. He's a 3-star, the #12 inside linebacker, and #377 overall. Duncanville is a large, powerhouse Texas program that had the guts to schedule IMG Academy earlier this season (though they lost to J.J. McCarthy and his squad, 41-14).
Kiyaunta Goodwin - OT - Charlestown (IN) Charlestown: Goodwin is a 6'7", 300-pounder with offers from Alabama, Georgia, Indiana, and Ohio State, among others. He's a 4-star, the #24 offensive tackle, and #195 overall. He's a mammoth human being, and his junior film even identifies him as being 6'8" and 315 pounds.

Michigan is 8-1 against the Terrapins after they started playing each other in 1985. The Terps eventually joined the Big Ten in 2014, winning that first game against the Brady Hoke-led Wolverines before losing five in a row.

With no Maryland game preview necessary for this week, here's a bit of an update on recruiting:
Cameron Bergeron - CB - Albany (GA) Westover: Bergeron is a 5'11", 180 lb. prospect who is committed to Duke. He's a 3-star, the #58 cornerback, and #697 overall. It does not appear that Michigan is going to push for Bergeron to flip, but since Bergeron is not an early enrollee, he could potentially be a target to heat up before the late signing period if he holds off on signing in December.

This may be beating a dead horse if you read this blog regularly, but I wanted to put a spotlight on the wild situation at hand regarding Michigan's roster and starting lineup.

Let's see more of this guy on offense . . . Hassan Haskins. Haskins averaged 5.9 yards per carry on 17 attempts (stat line: 17 rushes, 106 yards, 2 TD). The quarterbacks combined to average 4.0 yards per passing attempt. Of course, you're probably not going to be able to break off big runs if you're handing off the ball 60 times and throwing it 20 times, but Haskins was not used enough. He's the most consistent runner behind a mediocre (or bad) offensive line.
