Andrew Marsh Takes Lead Role in Michigan Receiving Corps After Northwestern Breakout

Veteran Donaven McCulley publicly backs a hot-hand approach elevating the freshman to Michigan’s go-to option.

Overview

  • True freshman Andrew Marsh delivered 12 catches for 189 yards against Northwestern, the sixth-highest single-game yardage total in program history.
  • Marsh now leads Michigan with 37 receptions and 565 receiving yards after rising from limited early-season usage.
  • Donaven McCulley says quarterbacks should keep feeding the hot receiver and describes mentoring Marsh as he continues to play nearly every offensive snap despite a production dip.
  • Quarterback Bryce Underwood set a career high with 280 passing yards but threw two fourth-quarter interceptions in the 24–22 win.
  • Coach Sherrone Moore says running back Justice Haynes will probably miss the rest of the regular season after foot surgery, and Jordan Marshall’s shoulder status remains uncertain, increasing pressure on the passing game.
