Was able to get a few more team notes as the team heads into summer conditioning work. This isn't anything new in terms of recent developments, just the overall feelings of things.

- It was reiterated again that Alex Orji is the leader in the clubhouse at QB heading into fall camp. However, was told specifically that Jack Tuttle and Davis Warren will get every opportunity to compete for the job during camp.
- Donovan Edwards' weight gain was based on NFL feedback he received, hence why he bulked up. Seems as if Michigan is fine with the gain and that the overall consensus is that the playbook hasn't changed all that much for him. He'll continue to catch passes.
- Tyler Morris, again, gets a shoutout from a separate source. Was told that people are sleeping on him and he deserves more attention. He's a 'dog'.
- Jaishawn Barham, again, gets some love. He's the other 'dog' on the team.
- Overall sense is that U-M is bullish on the offensive line. Was told that the group got better as spring progressed, which shouldn't come as a surprise considering who they're going up against on the opposite side.
- As for the DL, the belief is that they'll be the best in the conference again which isn't a hot take at all.
