Hello: Jack Doyle (Preferred Walk-On LB)

Submitted by Dilla Dude on

Per Allen Trieu:

 

#Michigan has added Grosse Pointe South (Mich.) LB Jack Doyle as a preferred walk-on.

 

 

Not much info out there. According to Scout, Doyle had 115 tackles (88 solo), three pass breakups, three sacks and 23 tackles for loss as a sophomore. {Edit: Jack will be a member of the 2013 class}

 

Probably more info behind pay-walled articles.

 

Welcome to the Maize & Blue Family, Jack! Go Blue!

I sense a move to FB in the near future.   6'2 215.

He'll be a redshirt Fr. the year Houma and Kerridge are Juniors.   His decision to walk-on at UM may pay off in the long run

He looks like a middle linebacker to me. I could maybe see him as a blocking tight end, but I think fullback would be a little bit of a stretch. We also have Wyatt Shallman coming in, who I think is a FB/H-back type, so I think that position is pretty well populated for the next several years.

I used to live in Grosse Pointe, when I was in America. My wife also went to Grosse Pointe South. It's not a cool story bro, but I just wanted to mention it because I miss that place.

We knew Doyle on our League - MAC Blue, and he was a Conference Player Of The Year.  I know he was also Division 1, 1st Team All state.  Should be a great addition for Michigan. Go Blue

Jack goes to my school (South) and I have seen him play many times. He is Pretty big and muscular, yet quick and a smart player. Should be a good addition.

When I was a kid, I played in the MAC at East Detroit.  Considering he's from GPS, I'm sure his folks will have no problem footing the bill for his tuition while he trys to work toward a scholly.

When you see him play, you'll know why Michigan wanted him. Great character and a natural leader. Humble, strong and intellegent. -The complete package.
