Overview

  • On3 named the No. 1 recruit to its 2025 Preseason True Freshman All-American team, recognizing him as the top freshman quarterback in the country.
  • Beats by Dre added the freshman to its 2025 Beats Elite roster, and he marked his 18th birthday by giving teammates custom maize-and-blue Beats headphones.
  • Michigan has not announced a starter, though Sherrone Moore could make the call Monday, with the freshman viewed as the frontrunner after competing with Mikey Keene, Jadyn Davis and Jake Garcia.
  • Moore will be sidelined for the third and fourth games as part of self-imposed measures tied to the sign-stealing case, with additional NCAA penalties including a 2026 opener suspension, fines and reduced official visits that the school says it will appeal.
  • The program’s momentum includes a pledge from five-star 2026 running back Savion Hiter, which drew a celebratory social media response from the freshman quarterback.
