The Wolverines didn't need a fall injury or suspension to thin the line at Tight End. As soon as Kevin Koger departed for the NFL, it became one of the biggest question marks for the Michigan offense. Head coach Brady Hoke and offensive coordinator Al Borges made it a point in 2011 to put the tight end back into action as it was under the wing of coaches like Bo Schembechler and Lloyd Carr, and that they did.
There is no definite starter for September 1st against Alabama, and incoming 2012 recruits are holding their own in fall practices as they battle for playing time. However, the vibe surrounding the program right now is that RS Senior Brandon Moore will be the starter to open up this season. Backing him up as a returner will probably be Mike Kwiatkowski.
