Michigan Football Names Alex Orji Starting Quarterback
News summary

As the Michigan Wolverines prepare to open their season against Fresno State, head coach Sherrone Moore has yet to name a starting quarterback, with Alex Orji and Davis Warren in contention. Despite his coyness, sources indicate that Orji has received the majority of first-team reps in practice and is the expected starter. This uncertainty follows the departure of multi-year starter J.J. McCarthy, who led Michigan to a national championship last season. The coaching staff may be employing gamesmanship, as the final decision is likely to be revealed shortly before the game. Both quarterbacks have limited meaningful playing experience, yet Moore believes either can lead the team to victory. The season opener is set for Saturday night in Ann Arbor, where Michigan is favored by 21.5 points.
