gabe newburg
Previously: Spring. Fall 2021.
See, people asking about HTTV? If we had it done on time you'd have all this incorrect roster data on it! Good news is the phonebooks are here.
======THINGS THAT QUALIFY AS NEWS========
Since time immemorial this is the time we discover graduated guys who slipped out after finishing their careers in spring. This time only DE Gabe Newburg was missing. He was +3/-3 in our charting in four appearances in 2020, and didn't play last year, which was his fourth season.
That means they're two over their 85-man scholarship limit heading into fall camp, which is usual, though with instant transfers it's more relevant now that guys have to sit out 2021 if they leave this close to the season, unless they get a waiver. The portal deadline for Fall 2022 sports was May 1.
======THE ALL WEIGHT GAIN OR LOSS IS GOOD SECTION========
Where all weight gained is musculature, and all weight lost was esters of fatty acids. Weights when they were recruits are from 24/7 and noted in gray italics. If I thought it was interesting I highlighted it.

This almost feels normal. Michigan waited until all my Kickstarter backers had their copies of HTTV 2021 (link is only for the backers) and then released the fall rosters.
The only piece of actual news-like substance on it was Sammy Faustin was not listed:
One significant change includes Sammy Faustin not being on the roster.
— Isaiah Hole (@isaiahhole) August 6, 2021
Per a team spokesman: "Due to medical reasons, Sammy decided to step away from the team and will reevaluate after this year. He will remain on athletic aid."

Wishing him the best, and on to the board, with a reminder that all weight gained is twitch-tastic musculature and all weight lost was just getting in the way.

Because of certain personnel deficiencies on last year's defense Michigan's defensive ends had to play defensive tackle at the same time they were playing on the outside. They did an admirable job in a difficult situation. Now they're down the third amigo—CMU transfer and draftee Mike Danna—but return two All Big Ten players. Both are getting the kind of hype that could land them high in the next NFL draft.
Depth is a little sketchy, but the main question here is how much they'll be able to trust the guys on the interior and get after it.
Note that Don Brown says that Paye is the "open-side end" and Hutchinson is the anchor. The distinction between these two spots was minimal last year and will be minimal again.
OPEN-SIDE END: DENSE
RATING: 4.5.
small state, large man [Patrick Barron]
A few years ago, a certain kind of recruitnik was big mad when Don Brown turned his attention to a rando from Rhode Island. Michigan had a half-dozen higher-rated defensive ends on the hook and no one on earth had heard of KWITY PAYE. Fast forward a few years and Paye is leading Bruce Feldman's "freaks" list:
1. Kwity Paye, Michigan, defensive end
Freakiest attribute: Speed in the 3-cone drill
…has generated a lot of buzz among the NFL scouting community for some remarkable wheels. He clocked the second-best 3-cone time on the team at a blistering 6.37 seconds, which would have topped anyone at the 2020 combine. Paye’s 40 is also moving at 4.57, with a solid 34-inch vertical and 30 reps on the bench press. Paye’s 40 time and 4.15 pro shuttle time are better than any D-lineman or edge player who tested at the 2020 combine. … rare blend of strength, control and balance
The last time Michigan had guy lead that list it was Rashan Gary, the #1 recruit in the country. Paye was the #1 recruit… in Rhode Island. Moral of the story is that if Don Brown finds a guy in Podunk, NH you nod and smile.
[After THE JUMP: and then there's the guy I'm higher on]
eh, it'll be fine to good
High-floor SDE makes a lot of sense after Michigan took a couple shots in the dark last year
