Been seeing some things pop up that Sherrone Moore said that Alex Orji will start on Saturday. He has NOT specifically said that Orji will start. He has strongly HINTED that Orji will PLAY, not necessarily start.
He told Jon Jansen on Inside Michigan Football after the game:
"I think, right now, Alex will play. We'll see how practice goes and go from there. Davis will be in there. Just gotta take care of the football. Our defense is going to be really good and if we put them into position we'll be even better."
It feels like it's a commitment to Orji but he appears to backpedal in the same sentence and elects to play it out in practice. I doubt we'll get anything tomorrow at noon or on the radio show that night that suggests what the plan will be.
We'll have to see what the week holds but no clear starter has been named yet.
